Local atomic decompositions for multidimensional Hardy spaces (1810.06937v3)

Abstract: We consider a nonnegative self-adjoint operator $L$ on $L^2(X)$, where $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$. Under certain assumptions, we prove atomic characterizations of the Hardy space $$H^1(L) = \l {f\in L^1(X) \ : \ \ {|}\sup_{t>0} \ |\exp(-tL)f \ | \ {|}_{L^1(X)}<\infty\ }.$$ We state simple conditions, such that $H^1(L)$ is characterized by atoms being either the classical atoms on $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ or local atoms of the form $|Q|^{-1}\chi_Q$, where $Q\subseteq X$ is a cube (or cuboid). One of our main motivation is to study multidimensional operators related to orthogonal expansions. We prove that if two operators $L_1, L_2$ satisfy the assumptions of our theorem, then the sum $L_1 + L_2$ also does. As a consequence, we give atomic characterizations for multidimensional Bessel, Laguerre, and Schr\"odinger operators. As a by-product, under the same assumptions, we characterize $H^1(L)$ also by the maximal operator related to the subordinate semigroup $\exp(-tL^\nu)$, where $\nu\in(0,1)$.
