Riesz transforms and Fourier multipliers associated with Markov semigroups
Wednesday, February 12 2PM, 646 PGH
Abstract
Riesz(Hilbert) transforms may be the most fundamental fourier multipliers on Rn. I will try to explain our recent
discovery (with M. Junge and J. Parcet) that they are actually the `essential' ones in the sense that every
Hormander-Milhlin multiplier is an average of `Riesz transforms' associated with semigroups of operators.
P. A. Meyer's gradient form gives natural Riesz transforms associated with Markov semigroups. D. Bakry has
proved a Riesz
transform inequality for semigroups which admit Markov dilations with almost continuous path.
Adapting G. Pisier's method
to Markov semigroups, we prove D. Bakry's Riesz transform inequality on group von Neumann algebras without
the continuity
assumption. The flexibility of our results then allows us to write a big class of Fourier multipliers as Littlewood-Paley
averages of Riesz transforms.
