Boundedness of maximal singular integral operators on spaces of homogeneous type and its applications

抄録

Some equivalent characterizations for boundedness of maximal singular integral operators on spaces of homogeneous type are given via certain norm inequalities on John-Strömberg sharp maximal functions and without resorting the boundedness of these operators themselves. As a corollary, the results of Grafakos on Euclidean spaces are generalized to spaces of homogeneous type. Moreover, applications to maximal Monge-Ampère singular integral operators and maximal Nagel-Stein singular integral operators on certain specific smooth manifolds are also presented.
