Riesz transforms and spectral multipliers of the Hodge-Laguerre operator (Q746915)

Let \(\alpha=(\alpha_1, \ldots,\alpha_d)\in (-1,\infty)^d\) and \(\mu_\alpha\) be the Laguerre measure on \(\mathbb R_{+}^d,\) i.e., the probability measure with density \[ \rho_\alpha(x)=\prod_{i=1}^d\frac{x_i^{\alpha_i}e^{-x_i}}{\Gamma(\alpha_i+1)}dx_i \] with respect to the Lebesgue measure on \(\mathbb R_{+}^d\). The authors define the Hodge-Laguerre operator acting on differential forms on \(\mathbb R_{+}^d\) as \(\mathbb{L}_\alpha=\delta\delta^*+\delta^*\delta,\) where \(\delta\) is the Laguerre exterior differentiation operator, defined much as the classical exterior differential, except that the partial derivatives \(\partial_{x_i}\) are replaced by \(\sqrt{x_i} \partial_{x_i},\) and \(\delta^*\) is the adjoint of \(\delta\) with respect to inner product on forms defined by the Euclidean structure and the Laguerre measure \(\mu_\alpha\). The aim of this work is to investigate the \(L^p\)-boundedness of the Riesz transforms and spectral multipliers for the Hodge-Laguerre operator \(\mathbb{L}_\alpha=\delta\delta^*+\delta^*\delta\). As applications, they prove the strong Hodge-de Rham-Kodaira decomposition for forms in \(L^p\) and deduce existence and regularity results for the solutions of the Hodge and de Rham equations in \(L^p\).
