The fractional Riesz transform and an exponential potential (Q2856439)

The \(s\)-dimensional Riesz transform of a finite non-negative Borel measure \(\mu\) is defined by NEWLINE\[NEWLINER(\mu)(x)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}\frac{y-x}{|y-x|^{1+s}}\, d\mu(y),NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(d\geq 2\) and \(s\in (d-1,d)\).NEWLINENEWLINEThe authors show that the boundedness of \(R(\mu)\) implies the \(\mu\)-almost everywhere finiteness of the the Wolff potential NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\mathcal {W}_{\Phi,s}(\mu)(x)=\int_0^\infty \Phi\left(\frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{r^s}\right)\frac{dr}{r},NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(\Phi(t)=e^{-1/{t^\beta}}\) with \(\beta>0\). Let \(E\subset (0,\infty)\) and \(\mathcal {L}(E)=\int_{E}\frac{dr}{r}\). For \(x\in \mathbb{R}^d\) and \(\Delta \in (0,\infty)\), denote \(E(x, \Delta)=\{r\in (0, \infty): \frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{r^s}>\Delta\}\). The main result is the following. Suppose that \(\|R(\mu)\|_{L^{\infty}}\leq 1\). There exist positive constnats \(C\) and \(\alpha\), depending on \(s\) and \(d\), such that NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\mu\left(\{x \in \mathbb{R}^d: \mathcal {L}(E(x, \Delta))>T\}\right)\leq \frac{C\mu(\mathbb{R}^d)}{\Delta \log^\alpha T},NEWLINE\]NEWLINE for all \(0<\Delta<\infty\) and \(e<T<\infty\). They also discuss the relationship between the Calderón-Zygmund capacity and the nonlinear Wolff capacity associated to an exponential gauge.
