Boundedness of the fractional maximal operator in generalized Morrey space on the Heisenberg group (Q2392872)

This paper deals with the boundedness of fractional maximal operators in generalized Morrey spaces on the Heisenberg group. Given a ball \(B(g, r)=B_r \subset H_n\), the associated fractional maximal operator is defined by \[ M_{\alpha}=\sup_{r > 0} |B_r|^{-1+ \frac{\alpha}{Q}}\int_{B_r} |f|. \] The authors prove that given two functions \(\phi_1, \phi_2\) which satisfy the condition \[ \sup_{r <t<\infty} t^{\alpha - \frac{Q}{p}} ess\inf_{t <s < \infty} \phi_1(g,s)s^{\frac{Q}{p}} \leq C \phi_2(g,r), \] then \(M_{\alpha}\) is bounded from \(M_{p,\phi_1}(H_n)\) to \(M_{p,\phi_2}(H_n)\), where \(p>1\) and \(1/q=1/p - \alpha/Q\). The proof is straight-forward using the condition on \(\phi_1, \phi_2\). In the last section of this paper, the authors use their result to study the boundedness of some Schrödinger type operators.
