The Sharp Maximal Function
For a locally integrable function on, the sharp maximal function is defined as
for each, where the supremum is taken over all balls .
The sharp function can be used to obtain a point-wise inequality regarding singular integrals. Suppose we have an operator which is bounded on, so we have
for all smooth and compactly supported . Suppose also that we can realise as convolution against a kernel in the sense that, whenever and are smooth and have disjoint support
Finally we assume a size and smoothness condition on the kernel :
when . Then for a fixed, we have
for all .

Famous quotes containing the words sharp and/or function:
“I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard,
It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall.”
—Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
“No one, however powerful and successful, can function as an adult if his parents are not satisfied with him.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
