Non-tangential Maximal Functions
The non-tangential maximal function takes a function defined on the upper-half plane and produces a function defined on via the expression
Observe that for a fixed, the set is a cone in with vertex at and axis perpendicular to the boundary of . Thus, the non-tangential maximal operator simply takes the supremum of the function over a cone with vertex at the boundary of .

Famous quotes containing the word functions:
“Let us stop being afraid. Of our own thoughts, our own minds. Of madness, our own or others’. Stop being afraid of the mind itself, its astonishing functions and fandangos, its complications and simplifications, the wonderful operation of its machinery—more wonderful because it is not machinery at all or predictable.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
