Averaging principle on infinite intervals for stochastic ordinary differential equations

1.   Introduction and notations

Let $T$ be the Calderón-Zygmund singular integral operator and $b$ be a locally integrable function on $R^n$. The commutator generated by $b$ and $T$ is defined by $[b, T]f = bT(f)-T(bf)$. The investigation of the commutator begins with Coifman-Rochberg-Weiss pioneering study and classical result (see ^[6]). The classical result of Coifman, Rochberg and Weiss (see ^[6]) states that the commutator $[b, T]f = T(bf)-bTf$ is bounded on $L^p(R^n)$ for $1 < p < \infty$ if and only if $b\in BMO(R^n)$. The major reason for considering the problem of commutators is that the boundedness of commutator can produces some characterizations of function spaces (see ^[1,6]). Chanillo (see ^[1]) proves a similar result when $T$ is replaced by the fractional integral operator. In ^[11], the boundedness properties of the commutators for the extreme values of $p$ are obtained. In recent years, the theory of Herz space and Herz type Hardy space, as a local version of Lebesgue space and Hardy space, have been developed (see ^[8,9,12,13]). The main purpose of this paper is to establish the endpoint continuity properties of some multilinear operators related to certain non-convolution type fractional singular integral operators on Herz and Herz type Hardy spaces.

First, let us introduce some notations (see ^{[8,9,10,12,13,15]}). Throughout this paper, $Q$ will denote a cube of $R^n$ with sides parallel to the axes. For a cube $Q$ and a locally integrable function $f$, let $f_Q = |Q|^{-1}\int_Qf(x)dx$ and $f^{\#}(x) = \sup\limits_{Q\ni x}|Q|^{-1}\int_Q|f(y)-f_Q|dy$. Moreover, $f$ is said to belong to $BMO(R^n)$ if $f^{\#} \in L^\infty$ and define $||f||_{BMO} = ||f^{\#}||_{L^\infty}$; We also define the central $BMO$ space by $CMO(R^n)$, which is the space of those functions $f\in L_{loc}(R^n)$ such that

It is well-known that (see ^[9,10])

For $k\in Z$, define $B_k = \{x\in R^n: |x|\le 2^k\}$ and $C_k = B_k\setminus B_{k-1}$. Denote by $\chi_k$ the characteristic function of $C_k$ and $\tilde\chi_k$ the characteristic function of $C_k$ for $k\ge1$ and $\tilde\chi_0$ the characteristic function of $B_0$.

Definition 1. Let $0 < p < \infty$ and $\alpha\in R$.

(1) The homogeneous Herz space $\dot K_p^\alpha(R^n)$ is defined by

where

(2) The nonhomogeneous Herz space $K_p^\alpha(R^n)$ is defined by

where

If $\alpha = n(1-1/p)$, we denote that $\dot K_p^\alpha(R^n) = \dot K_p(R^n)$, $K_p^\alpha(R^n) = K_p(R^n)$.

Definition 2. Let $0 < \delta < n$ and $1 < p < n/\delta$. We shall call $B_p^{\delta}(R^n)$ the space of those functions $f$ on $R^n$ such that

Definition 3. Let $1 < p < \infty$.

(1) The homogeneous Herz type Hardy space $H \dot K_p(R^n)$ is defined by

where

(2) The nonhomogeneous Herz type Hardy space $HK_p(R^n)$ is defined by

where

where $G(f)$ is the grand maximal function of $f$.

The Herz type Hardy spaces have the atomic decomposition characterization.

Definition 4. Let $1 < p < \infty$. A function $a(x)$ on $R^n$ is called a central $(n(1-1/p), p)$-atom (or a central $(n(1-1/p), p)$-atom of restrict type), if

1) Supp$a\subset B(0, d)$ for some $d > 0$ (or for some $d\ge 1$),

2) $||a||_{L^p}\le |B(0, d)|^{1/p-1}$,

3) $\int a(x)dx = 0$.

Lemma 1. (see ^[9,13]) Let $1 < p < \infty$. A temperate distribution $f$ belongs to $H\dot K_p(R^n)$(or $HK_p(R^n)$) if and only if there exist central $(n(1-1/p), p)$-atoms(or central $(n(1-1/p), p)$-atoms of restrict type) $a_j$ supported on $B_j = B(0, 2^j)$ and constants $\lambda_j$, $\sum_j|\lambda_j| < \infty$ such that $f = \sum_{j = -\infty}^\infty \lambda_ja_j$ (or $f = \sum_{j = 0}^\infty \lambda_j a_j$)in the $S'(R^n)$ sense, and

2.   Theorems

In this paper, we will consider a class of multilinear operators related to some non-convolution type singular integral operators, whose definition are following.

Let $m$ be a positive integer and $A$ be a function on $R^n$. We denote that

and

Definition 5. Fixed $\varepsilon > 0$ and $0 < \delta < n$. Let $T_\delta : S\to S'$ be a linear operator. $T_\delta$ is called a fractional singular integral operator if there exists a locally integrable function $K(x, y)$ on $R^n \times R^n$ such that

for every bounded and compactly supported function $f$, where $K$ satisfies:

and

if $2|y-z|\le |x-z|$. The multilinear operator related to the fractional singular integral operator $T_\delta$ is defined by

We also consider the variant of $T_\delta^A$, which is defined by

Note that when $m = 0$, $T_\delta^A$ is just the commutators of $T_\delta$ and $A$ (see ^[1,6,11,14]). It is well known that multilinear operator, as a non-trivial extension of commutator, is of great interest in harmonic analysis and has been widely studied by many authors (see ^[3,4,5]). In ^[7], the weighted $L^p$($p > 1$)-boundedness of the multilinear operator related to some singular integral operator are obtained. In ^[2], the weak ($H^1$, $L^1$)-boundedness of the multilinear operator related to some singular integral operator are obtained. In this paper, we will study the endpoint continuity properties of the multilinear operators $T_\delta^A$ and $\tilde T_\delta^A$ on Herz and Herz type Hardy spaces.

Now we state our results as following.

Theorem 1. Let $0 < \delta < n$, $1 < p < n/\delta$ and $D^\beta A\in BMO(R^n)$ for all $\beta$ with $|\beta| = m$. Suppose that $T_\delta^A$ is the same as in Definition 5 such that $T_\delta$ is bounded from $L^p(R^n)$ to $L^q(R^n)$ for any $p, q\in (1, +\infty]$ with $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$. Then $T_\delta^A$ is bounded from $B_p^{\delta}(R^n)$ to $CMO(R^n)$.

Theorem 2. Let $0 < \delta < n$, $1 < p < n/\delta$, $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$ and $D^\beta A\in BMO(R^n)$ for all $\beta$ with $|\beta| = m$. Suppose that $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is the same as in Definition 5 such that $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is bounded from $L^p(R^n)$ to $L^q(R^n)$ for any $p, q\in (1, +\infty)$ with $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$. Then $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is bounded from $H\dot K_p(R^n)$ to $\dot K_q^\alpha(R^n)$ with $\alpha = n(1-1/p)$.

Theorem 3. Let $0 < \delta < n$, $1 < p < n/\delta$ and $D^\beta A\in BMO(R^n)$ for all $\beta$ with $|\beta| = m$. Suppose that $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is the same as in Definition 5 such that $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is bounded from $L^p(R^n)$ to $L^q(R^n)$ for any $p, q\in (1, +\infty)$ with $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$. Then the following two statements are equivalent:

(ⅰ) $\tilde T_\delta^A$ is bounded from $B_p^{\delta}(R^n)$ to $CMO(R^n)$;

(ⅱ) for any cube $Q$ and $z\in 3Q\setminus 2Q$, there is

where $K_{\beta}(z, y) = \frac{(z-y)^\beta}{|z-y|^m}K(z, y)$ for $|\beta| = m$.

Remark. Theorem 2 is also hold for nonhomogeneous Herz and Herz type Hardy space.

3.   Proofs of theorems

To prove the theorem, we need the following lemma.

Lemma 2. (see ^[5]) Let $A$ be a function on $R^n$ and $D^\beta A\in L^q(R^n)$ for $|\beta| = m$ and some $q > n$. Then

where $\tilde Q(x, y)$ is the cube centered at $x$ and having side length $5\sqrt{n}|x-y|$.

Proof of Theorem 1. It suffices to prove that there exists a constant $C_Q$ such that

holds for any cube $Q = Q(0, d)$ with $d > 1$. Fix a cube $Q = Q(0, d)$ with $d > 1$. Let $\tilde Q = 5\sqrt{n}Q$ and $\tilde A(x) = A(x)-\sum\limits_{|\beta| = m}\frac{1}{\beta!}(D^\beta A)_{\tilde Q}x^\beta$, then $R_{m+1}(A; x, y) = R_{m+1}(\tilde A; x, y)$ and $D^\beta\tilde A = D^\beta A-(D^\beta A)_{\tilde Q}$ for all $\beta$ with $|\beta| = m$. We write, for $f_1 = f\chi_{\tilde Q}$ and $f_2 = f\chi_{R^n\setminus\tilde Q}$,

then

For $I$, note that for $x\in Q$ and $y\in \tilde Q$, using Lemma 2, we get

thus, by the $L^p(R^n)$ to $L^q(R^n)$-boundedness of $T_\delta^A$ for $1 < p, q < \infty$ with $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$, we get

For $II$, taking $1 < s < p$ such that $1/r = 1/s-\delta/n$, by the $(L^s, L^r)$-boundedness of $T_\delta$ and Holder's inequality, we gain

To estimate $III$, we write

By Lemma 2 and the following inequality (see ^[15])

we know that, for $x\in Q$ and $y\in 2^{k+1}\tilde Q\setminus 2^k\tilde Q$,

Note that $|x-y|\sim |y|$ for $x\in Q$ and $y\in R^n\setminus\tilde Q$, we obtain, by the condition of $K$,

For $III_2$, by the formula (see ^[5]):

and Lemma 2, we have

thus, similar to the estimates of $III_1$, we get

For $III_3$, by Holder's inequality, similar to the estimates of $III_1$, we get

Thus

which together with the estimates for $I$ and $II$ yields the desired result. This finishes the proof of Theorem 1.

Proof of Theorem 2. Let $f\in H\dot K_p(R^n)$, by Lemma 1, $f = \sum_{j = -\infty}^\infty\lambda_ja_j$, where $a_j's$ are the central $(n(1-1/p), p)$-atom with supp$a_j \subset B_j = B(0, 2^j)$ and $||f||_{H\dot K_p}\approx\sum_j|\lambda_j|$. We write

For $JJ$, by the $(L^p, L^q)$-boundedness of $\tilde T_\delta^A$ for $1/q = 1/p-\delta/n$, we get

To obtain the estimate of $J$, we denote that $\tilde A(x) = A(x)-\sum_{|\beta| = m}\frac{1}{\beta!}(D^\beta A)_{2B_j}x^\beta$. Then $Q_m(A; x, y) = Q_m(\tilde A; x, y)$ and $Q_{m+1}(A; x, y) = R_m(A; x, y)-\sum_{|\beta| = m}\frac{1}{\beta!} (x-y)^\beta D^\beta A(x)$. We write, by the vanishing moment of $a$ and for $x \in C_k$ with $k\ge j+1$,

Similar to the proof of Theorem 1, we obtain

thus

This completes the proof of Theorem 2.

Proof of Theorem 3. For any cube $Q = Q(0, r)$ with $r > 1$, let $f \in B_p^{\delta}$ and $\tilde A(x) = A(x) -\sum\limits_{|\beta| = m}\frac{1}{\beta!}(D^\beta A)_{\tilde Q}x^\beta$. We write, for $f = f\chi_{4Q}+f\chi_{(4Q)^c} = f_1+f_2$ and $z\in 3Q\setminus2Q$,

where $T_{\delta, \beta}$ is the singular integral operator with the kernel $\frac{(x-y)^\beta}{|x-y|^m}K(x, y)$ for $|\beta| = m$. Note that $(I_4(\cdot, z))_Q = 0$, we have

By the $(L^p, L^q)$-bounded of $\tilde T_\delta^A$, we get

Similar to the proof of Theorem 1, we obtain

and

Then integrating in $x$ on $Q$ and using the above estimates, we obtain the equivalence of the estimate

and the estimate

This completes the proof of Theorem 3.

4.   Applications

In this section we shall apply the theorems of the paper to some particular operators such as the Calderón-Zygmund singular integral operator and fractional integral operator.

Application 1. Calderón-Zygmund singular integral operator.

Let $T$ be the Calderón-Zygmund operator defined by (see ^[10,11,15])

the multilinear operator related to $T$ is defined by

Then it is easily to see that $T$ satisfies the conditions in Theorems 1–3, thus the conclusions of Theorems 1–3 hold for $T^A$.

Application 2. Fractional integral operator with rough kernel.

For $0 < \delta < n$, let $T_\delta$ be the fractional integral operator with rough kernel defined by (see ^[2,7])

the multilinear operator related to $T_\delta$ is defined by

where $\Omega$ is homogeneous of degree zero on $R^n$, $\int_{S^{n-1}}\Omega(x')d\sigma(x') = 0$ and $\Omega\in Lip_\varepsilon(S^{n-1})$ for some $0 < \varepsilon\le 1$, that is there exists a constant $M > 0$ such that for any $x, y\in S^{n-1}$, $|\Omega(x)-\Omega(y)|\le M|x-y|^\varepsilon$. Then $T_\delta$ satisfies the conditions in Theorem 1. In fact, for $supp f \subset (2Q)^c$ and $x\in Q = Q(x_0, d)$, by the condition of $\Omega$, we have (see ^[16])

thus, the conclusions of Theorems 1–3 hold for $T_\delta^A$.
