Local Hardy spaces of differential forms on Riemannian manifolds (Q1935476)

The paper is structured as follows: In Sect. 2 the authors develop local analogues of some basic tools from harmonic analysis in the context of a locally doubling metric measure space \(X\). The local tent spaces \(t^p(X\times(0,1])\) and the new spaces \(L^p_{\mathcal{Q}}(X)\) are introduced and shown to have atomic characterizations for \(p=1\) in Sects. 3 and 4, respectively. The authors obtain also duality and interpolation results for these spaces. Next, a general class of first-order differential operators is introduced; it includes the Hodge-Dirac operator. These operators are denoted by \({\mathcal{D}}\). The authors prove exponential off-diagonal estimates for their resolvents in Sect. 5. These are used to prove the main technical estimate in Sect. 6, which allows to define the local Hardy spaces of differential forms \(h^p_{\mathcal{D}}(\wedge T^*M)\) in Sect. 7. Duality and interpolation results for the local Hardy spaces are also obtained.
