Abstract: On a doubling metric measure space (M,d,mu) endowed with a "carr'e du champ", let mathcalL be the associated Markov generator and dotLaplpha(M,mathcalL,mu) the corresponding homogeneous Sobolev space of order 0<alpha<1 in Lp, 1<p<+infty, with norm left|mathcalLalpha/2fight|p. We give sufficient conditions on the heat semigroup (etmathcalL)t>0 for the spaces dotLaplpha(M,mathcalL,mu)capLinfty(M,mu) to be algebras for the pointwise product. Two approaches are developed, one using paraproducts (relying on extrapolation to prove their boundedness) and a second one through geometrical square functionals (relying on sharp estimates involving oscillations). A chain rule and a paralinearisation result are also given. In comparison with previous results ([29,11]), the main improvements consist in the fact that we neither require any Poincar'e inequalities nor Lp-boundedness of Riesz transforms, but only Lp-boundedness of the gradient of the semigroup. As a consequence, in the range pin(1,2], the Sobolev algebra property is shown under Gaussian upper estimates of the heat kernel only.
