The autors consider the bilinear fractional integral operator \[ B_{\Omega,\alpha}(f,g)=\int\limits_{{\mathbb R}^n} f(x+t)g(x-t)\frac{\Omega(t)}{| t| ^{n-\alpha}}\,dt, \] where \(\Omega\in L^s(S^{n-1})\), \(s'<\frac{n}{\alpha}\), and show that it is a bounded operator from \(L^{p_1}\times L^{p_2}\) to \(L^q\), when \(\frac1{q}=\frac1{p_1}+\frac1{p_2}-\frac{\alpha}{n}\) and \(1\leq s'<\min(p_1,p_2)\), and that the operator is weakly bounded when the last inequality becomes equality. When \(\Omega\equiv 1\), \(s=\infty\) this is a particular case of the result of \textit{C. E. Kenig} and \textit{E. M. Stein} [Math. Res. Lett. 6, No. 1, 1--15, erratum ibid. 6, No. 3--4, 367 (1999; Zbl 0952.42005)]. The main idea of the proof is in reducing the estimate to this case.
