Weighted and multivariate Johnson--Schechtman inequalities with application to interpolation theory

Abstract: We prove a weighted version of a classical inequality of Johnson and Schechtman from which we derive a decomposition theorem for

p

-th moments (

0 < p l e q 1

) of nonnegative generalized

U

-statistics with constant not dependent on

p

. In particular, for

1 l e q p l e q 2

, the norm in the subspace

U_{l e q m}^{p} l e f t (O m e g a^{i} n f t y i g h t)

of

L^{p} l e f t (O m e g a^{i} n f t y i g h t)

spanned by functions dependent on at most

m

variables is equivalent to the norm in a suitable interpolation sum of

L^{p} l e f t (L^{2} i g h t)

spaces. As a consequence, we obtain some interpolation properties of

U_{m}^{1} l e f t (O m e g a^{i} n f t y, e l l^{p} i g h t)

that are known to imply cotype 2 of

L^{1} / U_{l e q m}^{1} l e f t (O m e g a^{i} n f t y i g h t)

.
