Heat diffusion on homogeneous trees (Q1842223): Difference between revisions

Let \(X\) be a homogeneous tree. We study the heat diffusion process associated with the nearest neighbour isotropic Markov operator on \(X\). In particular it is shown that the heat maximal operator is weak type (1,1) and strong type \((p,p)\), for any \(p\), \(1 < p < \infty\). We estimate the asymptotic behaviour of the heat maximal function. Moreover, we introduce a family of \(H^p\) spaces on \(X\). It is proved that \(H^p = l^p (X)\) for \(1 < p < \infty\) and it is conjectured that \(H^p\), for \(p\) less than 1, is trivial.
