Unboundedness of potential dependent Riesz transforms for totally irregular measures (2001.05526v2)
Abstract: We prove that, for totally irregular measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}{d}$ with $d\geq3$, the $(d-1)$-dimensional Riesz transform $$ T_{A,\mu}{V}f(x) = \int_{\mathbb{R}d} \nabla_{1}\mathcal{E}{A}{V}(x,y) f(y) \, d \mu(y) $$ adapted to the Schr\"{o}dinger operator $L{A}{V} = -\mathrm{div} A \nabla + V$ with fundamental solution $\mathcal{E}{A}{V}$ is not bounded on $L{2}(\mu)$. This generalises recent results obtained by Conde-Alonso, Mourgoglou and Tolsa for free-space elliptic operators with H\"older continuous coefficients $A$ since it allows for the presence of potentials $V$ in the reverse H\"{o}lder class $RH{d}$. We achieve this by obtaining new exponential decay estimates for the kernel $\nabla_{1} \mathcal{E}_{A}{V}$ as well as H\"older regularity estimates at local scales determined by the potential's critical radius function.
