Title: Rubio de Francia Extrapolation
Abstract: The classical Rubio de Francia Extrapolation establishes that if an operator is bounded on
for all
in the Muckenhoupt class of weights
, then
is also bounded on all
for all
and all
. In the last forty years, Rubio de Francia’s result has been extended and complemented in several different ways. In particular, one can also derive the boundedness of
on many different function spaces. All these results show, in hindsight, that what is needed to extrapolate to a given weighted function space, requires assumptions on the weight guaranteeing that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function is bounded. During this mini-course we will present a new abstract approach to extrapolation on which one can reduce matters to constructing Muckenhoupt weights so that there is some “embedding” between the functions spaces in the conclusions and the ones in the hypotheses. More precisely, in the classical Rubio de Francia Extrapolation one would need to see how to “embed”
, for a given
, into
for some
, and viceversa. An important feature is that global embeddings are not needed, rather we can work function by function and the constructed weights depend very much on the functions we are dealing with.
We will consider several applications of the abstract extrapolation theory: well-posedness results for some Dirichlet problem in the upper half-space whenever the boundary data belongs to a general weighted spaces; weighted inequalities for the layer potential operators and the related commutators on uniformly rectifiable domain; and limited range extrapolation result for operators associated with the Kato conjecture.
