Real-variable Characterizations of Orlicz-Hardy Spaces on Strongly Lipschitz Domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (1107.3267v1)

Abstract: Let $\Omega$ be a strongly Lipschitz domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, whose complement in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is unbounded. Let $L$ be a second order divergence form elliptic operator on $L^2 (\Omega)$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition, and the heat semigroup generated by $L$ have the Gaussian property $(G_{\mathrm{diam}(\Omega)})$ with the regularity of their kernels measured by $\mu\in(0,1]$, where $\mathrm{diam}(\Omega)$ denotes the diameter of $\Omega$. Let $\Phi$ be a continuous, strictly increasing, subadditive and positive function on $(0,\infty)$ of upper type 1 and of strictly critical lower type $p_{\Phi}\in(n/(n+\mu),1]$. In this paper, the authors introduce the Orlicz-Hardy space $H_{\Phi,\,r}(\Omega)$ by restricting arbitrary elements of the Orlicz-Hardy space $H_{\Phi}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to $\boz$ and establish its atomic decomposition by means of the Lusin area function associated with ${e^{-tL}}_{t\ge0}$. Applying this, the authors obtain two equivalent characterizations of $H_{\Phi,\,r}(\boz)$ in terms of the nontangential maximal function and the Lusin area function associated with the heat semigroup generated by $L$.
