In this paper we give a complete description of the power weighted inequalities, of strong, weak and restricted weak type for the pair of Riesz transforms associated with the Laguerre function system $\{\mathcal{L}_k^{\alpha}\}$ , for any given α>-1. We achieve these results by a careful estimate of the kernels: near the diagonal we show that they are local Calderón–Zygmund operators while in the complement they are majorized by Hardy type operators and the maximal heat-diffusion operator. We also show that in all the cases our results are sharp.

In this note, we consider the regularity of solutions of the nonlinear elliptic systems of$n$-Laplacian type involving measures, and prove that the gradients of the solutions are in the weak Lebesgue space$L$^{$n$,∞}. We also obtain the$a priori$global and local estimates for the$L$^{$n$,∞}-norm of the gradients of the solutions without using BMO-estimates. The proofs are based on a new lemma on the higher integrability of functions.

The wave equation, ∂_{$tt$}$u$=Δ$u$, in ℝ^{$n$+1}, considered with initial data$u$($x$,0)=$f$∈$H$^{$s$}(ℝ^{$n$}) and$u$’($x$,0)=0, has a solution which we denote by $\frac{1}{2}(e^{it\sqrt{-\Delta}}f+e^{-it\sqrt{-\Delta}}f)$ . We give almost sharp conditions under which $\sup_{0<t<1}|e^{\pm it\sqrt{-\Delta}}f|$ and $\sup_{t\in\mathbb{R}}|e^{\pm it\sqrt{-\Delta}}f|$ are bounded from$H$^{$s$}(ℝ^{$n$}) to$L$^{$q$}(ℝ^{$n$}).

Decomposable mappings from the space of symmetric$k$-fold tensors over$E$, $\bigotimes_{s,k}E$ , to the space of$k$-fold tensors over$F$, $\bigotimes_{s,k}F$ , are those linear operators which map nonzero decomposable elements to nonzero decomposable elements. We prove that any decomposable mapping is induced by an injective linear operator between the spaces on which the tensors are defined. Moreover, if the decomposable mapping belongs to a given operator ideal, then so does its inducing operator. This result allows us to classify injective linear operators between spaces of homogeneous approximable polynomials and between spaces of nuclear polynomials which map rank-1 polynomials to rank-1 polynomials.

We introduce the notion of compactly locally reflexive Banach spaces and show that a Banach space$X$is compactly locally reflexive if and only if $\mathcal{K}(Y,X^{**})\subseteq\mathcal{K}(Y,X)^{**}$ for all reflexive Banach spaces$Y$. We show that$X$^{*}has the approximation property if and only if$X$has the approximation property and is compactly locally reflexive. The weak metric approximation property was recently introduced by Lima and Oja. We study two natural weak compact versions of this property. If$X$is compactly locally reflexive then these two properties coincide. We also show how these properties are related to the compact approximation property and the compact approximation property with conjugate operators for dual spaces.
