Littlewood-Paley-Stein functions for Hodge-de Rham and Schr{ö}dinger operators

Abstract: We study the Littlewood-Paley-Stein functions associated with Hodge-de Rham and Schr{\"o}dinger operators on Riemannian manifolds. Under conditions on the Ricci curvature we prove their boundedness on L p for p in some interval (p 1 , 2] and make a link to the Riesz Transform. An important fact is that we do not make assumptions of doubling measure or estimates on the heat kernel in this case. For p > 2 we give a criterion to obtain the boundedness of the vertical Littlewood-Paley-Stein function associated with Schr{\"o}dinger operators on L p .
