The Banach space-valued BMO, Carleson's condition, and paraproducts (Q992026)

For strongly measurable functions \(F:{\mathbb R}_+^{n+1}\to X\), where \(X\) is a UMD space, the authors consider some ``Carleson type'' functions \(C_q(F)\) that allow them to give a characterization of the membership of a function \(f\in L^1_{loc}({\mathbb R}^n;X)\) to \(BMO({\mathbb R}^n;X)\) by the property \(C_q(f*\psi_t)\in L^\infty\), if \(\psi\in {\mathcal S}\) satisfies some natural conditions and \(\psi_t(x)=t^{-n}\psi(t^{-1}x)\), extending a well known result in the case \(q=2\) and \(X={\mathbb C}\). This characterization combined with a version of the Carleson embedding theorem allows the authors to prove the boundedness \[ \| P(f,u)\|_{L^p({\mathbb R}^n;X)}\preceq \| f\|_{BMO({\mathbb R}^n;X)} \| u\|_{L^p({\mathbb R}^n)} \] \((1<p<\infty,\;f\in BMO({\mathbb R}^n;X),\;u\in L^p({\mathbb R}^n))\) of the paraproduct \[ P(f,u):= \int_0^\infty \psi_t*[(\psi_t*f)][(\phi_t*u)]\, {{dt}\over{t}}. \]
