Riemann-Stieltjes operators and multipliers on \(Q_p\) spaces in the unit ball of \(C^n\) (Q626155)

The authors analyze the boundedness and compactness of pointwise multipliers \(M_g(f)(z)=f(z)g(z)\) and Riemann-Stieltjes operators \(T_g(f)(x)= \int_0^1f(tz)Rg(tz)\frac{dt}{t}\), where \(Rf(z)=\sum_{j=1}^n \frac{\partial f}{\partial z_j}(z) z_j\) stands for the radial derivative acting on \(Q_p\) spaces defined on the unit ball of \(\mathbb C^n\), that is, analytic functions in the ball such that \(\sup_{a\in \mathbb B} \int_{\mathbb B} |Rf(z)|^2(1-|z|^2)^2 (1-|\varphi_a(z)|^2)^{np} d\lambda(z)\) where, as usual, \(\varphi_a\) stands for the Möbius transform and \(d\lambda(z) =(1-|z|^2)^{-n-1}d\nu(z)\) is the automorphism invariant measure. There is a lot of literature on such a problem on the unit disk and the unit ball when acting on different classes of spaces of analytic functions. The present paper deals with the cases \(\frac{n-1}{n}<p<\frac{n}{n-1}\) and uses the description of the measures for which \(Q_p\) embeds into the non-isotropic tent space \(T^\infty_q(\mu)\) consisting of measurable functions \(f\) such that \(\int_{Q_\delta(\xi)} |f|^2\,d\mu\leq C \delta^{nq}\), where \(Q_\delta(\xi)=\{ z\in \mathbb B; |1-\langle z,\xi\rangle |<\delta\}\). It is first shown that, for \( \frac{n-1}{n}<p\leq q<\frac{n}{n-1}\), the embedding from \(Q_p\) into \(T^\infty_q(\mu)\) holds if and only if \(\mu\) is a logarithmic \(q\)-Carleson measure, meaning that \(\mu(Q_\delta(\xi))\leq \delta^{np}(\log (2/\delta))^{-2}.\) Then this is used to get the description of boundedness and also compactness from \(Q_p\) to \(Q_q\) (under the same assumptions as above) of the Riemann-Stieltjes \(T_g\) and pointwise multiplier \(M_g\) operators in terms of the measure \(d\mu_{q,g}(z)= |Rg(z)|^2(1-|z|^2)^{n(q-1)+1}d\nu(z)\). The results extends those recently proved by \textit{J. Pau} and \textit{J. A. Pelaez} [Math. Z. 261, No. 3, 545--555 (2009; Zbl 1170.30016)] and \textit{J. Xiao} [Adv. Math. 217, No. 5, 2075--2088 (2008; Zbl 1142.30021)].
