On relations between weak and strong type inequalities for modified maximal operators on non-doubling metric measure spaces (1903.11897v1)

Abstract: In this article we investigate a special class of non-doubling metric measure spaces in order to describe the possible configurations of $P_{k,\rm s}^{\rm c}$, $P_{k,\rm s}$, $P_{k,\rm w}^{\rm c}$ and $P_{k,\rm w}$, the sets of all $p \in [1, \infty]$ for which the weak and strong type $(p,p)$ inequalities hold for the centered and non-centered modified Hardy--Littlewood maximal operators, $M^{\rm c}k$ and $M_k$, $k \geq 1$. For any fixed $k$ we describe the necessary conditions that $P{k,\rm s}^{\rm c}$, $P_{k,\rm s}$, $P_{k,\rm w}^{\rm c}$ and $P_{k,\rm w}$ must satisfy in general and illustrate each admissible configuration with a properly chosen non-doubling metric measure space. We also give some partial results related to an analogous problem stated for varying $k$.
