LITTLEWOOD–PALEY CHARACTERIZATIONS OF ANISOTROPIC WEAK MUSIELAK–ORLICZ HARDY SPACES

Abstract

Let $A$ be an expansive dilation on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\times [0,\infty )\rightarrow [0,\infty )$ an anisotropic growth function. In this article, the authors introduce the anisotropic weak Musielak–Orlicz Hardy space $\mathit{WH}_{A}^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ via the nontangential grand maximal function and then obtain its Littlewood–Paley characterizations in terms of the anisotropic Lusin-area function, $g$-function or $g_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}^{\ast }$-function, respectively. All these characterizations for anisotropic weak Hardy spaces $\mathit{WH}_{A}^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ (namely, $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}(x,t):=t^{p}$ for all $t\in [0,\infty )$ and $x\in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ with $p\in (0,1]$) are new. Moreover, the range of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}$ in the anisotropic $g_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}^{\ast }$-function characterization of $\mathit{WH}_{A}^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ coincides with the best known range of the $g_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}^{\ast }$-function characterization of classical Hardy space $H^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ or its weighted variants, where $p\in (0,1]$.
