Hardy-type inequalities for integral transforms associated with Jacobi operator (Q2566588)

Let \(R_{\alpha,\beta}\) and \(W_{\alpha,\beta}\) be the Riemann-Liouville and Weyl integral transforms, respectively, associated with the Jacobi second-order differential operator given on \((0,\infty)\) by \[ \Delta_{\alpha,\beta}\, u(x) = \frac1{A_{\alpha,\beta}(x)} \frac{d}{dx} \Big(A_{\alpha,\beta} (x) \frac{du}{dx}\Big) + \rho^2 u(x), \] where \(A_{\alpha,\beta} (x) = 2^{2\rho}\text{sinh}^{2\alpha+1}(x) \,\text{cosh}^{2\beta+1}(x)\), \,\(\alpha,\beta \in\mathbb R\), \(\alpha \geq \beta > - 1/2\), \(\rho=\alpha+\beta+1\). Let \(L^p ((0,\infty), A_{\alpha,\beta}(x) \,dx)\), \(1<p<\infty\), be the set of all measurable functions on \((0,\infty)\) such that \[ \| f\| _{p,\alpha,\beta} = \Big(\int^{\infty}_0 | f(x)| ^p A_{\alpha,\beta}(x)\,dx\Big)^{1/p} < \infty. \] Put \(p' = p/(p-1)\). The aim of the paper is to prove that there exists a constant \(C_{p,\alpha,\beta} > 0\) such that \[ \| R_{\alpha,\beta}(f)\| _{p,\alpha,\beta} \leq C_{p,\alpha,\beta}\, \| f\| _{p,\alpha,\beta} \quad\forall f\in L^p ((0,\infty), A_{\alpha,\beta}(x)\,dx) \] and \[ \| W_{\alpha,\beta} (g)/A_{\alpha,\beta}(x)\| _{p',\alpha,\beta} \leq C_{p,\alpha,\beta}\, \| g\| _{p',\alpha,\beta} \quad\forall \, g \in L^{p'} ((0,\infty), A_{\alpha,\beta}(x)\,dx) \] provided that either \[ -1/2 < \beta \leq \alpha, \;\alpha \geq 1/2 \;\text{and} \;p>2\alpha+2, \] or \[ -1/2 < \beta \leq \alpha < 1/2, \;\, \alpha+\beta >0\, \;\text{and} \, \;p > \max (2\alpha+2, (4\alpha + 4\beta + 4)/(4\alpha+2\beta+1)). \]
