(Un)boundedness of directional maximal operators through a notion of "Perron capacity and an application

Abstract: We introduce the notion of extit{Perron capacity} of a set of slopes

O m e g a s u b s e t m a t h b b R

. Precisely, we prove that if the Perron capacity of

O m e g a

is finite then the directional maximal operator associated

M_{O} m e g a

is not bounded on

L^{p} (m a t h b b R^{2})

for any

1 < p < i n f t y

. This allows us to prove that the set

Omega_{ �oldsymbol{e}} =left{ frac{cos n}{n}: nin mathbb{N}^* ight}

is not finitely lacunary which answers a question raised by A. Stokolos.
