Let$E$ç$S$^{1}be a set with Minkowski dimension$d(E)1$. We consider the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function, the Hilbert transform and the maximal Hilbert transform along the directions of$E$. The main result of this paper shows that these operators are bounded on$L$_{$rad$}^{$p$}(R^{2}) for$p>1+d(E)$and unbounded when$p<1+d(E)$. We also give some end-point results.

The$H$^{$p$}corona problem is the following: Let$g$_{1}, ...,$g$_{$m$}be bounded holomorphic functions with 0<δ≤Σ‖$g$_{$i$}‖. Can we, for any$H$^{$p$}function ϕ, find$H$^{$p$}functions$u$_{1}, ...,$u$_{$m$}such that Σ$g$_{$i$}$u$_{$i$}=ϕ? It is known that the answer is affirmative in the polydisc, and the aim of this paper is to prove that it is in non-degenerate analytic polyhedra. To prove this, we construct a solution using a certain integral representation formula. The$H$^{$p$}estimate for the solution is then obtained by localization and some harmonic analysis results in the polydisc.

We study Thurston’s Lipschitz and curve metrics, as well as the arc metric on the Teichmüller space of one-hold tori equipped with complete hyperbolic metrics with boundary holonomy of fixed length. We construct natural Lipschitz maps between two surfaces equipped with such hyperbolic metrics that generalize Thurston’s stretch maps and prove the following: (1) On the Teichmüller space of the torus with one boundary component, the Lipschitz and the curve metrics coincide and define a geodesic metric on this space. (2) On the same space, the arc and the curve metrics coincide when the length of the boundary component is ≤4arcsinh(1), but differ when the boundary length is large. We further apply our stretch map generalization to construct novel Thurston geodesics on the Teichmüller spaces of closed hyperbolic surfaces, and use these geodesics to show that the sum-symmetrization of the Thurston metric fails to exhibit Gromov hyperbolicity.
