Compactness of commutators of rough singular integrals

Abstract: We study the two-weighted off-diagonal compactness of commutators of rough singular integral operators $T_\Omega$ that are associated with a kernel $\Omega\in L^q(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$. We establish a characterisation of compactness of the commutator $[b,T_\Omega]$ in terms of the function $b$ belonging to a suitable space of functions with vanishing mean oscillation. Our results expand upon the previous compactness characterisations for Calder\'on-Zygmund operators. Additionally, we prove a matrix-weighted compactness result for $[b,T_\Omega]$ by applying the so-called matrix-weighted Kolmogorov-Riesz theorem.
