Two Weight Commutators on Spaces of Homogeneous Type and Applications

Abstract

In this paper, we establish the two weight commutator theorem of Calderon–Zygmund operators in the sense of Coifman–Weiss on spaces of homogeneous type, by studying the weighted Hardy and BMO space for $$A_2$$ weights and by proving the sparse operator domination of commutators. The main tool here is the Haar basis, the adjacent dyadic systems on spaces of homogeneous type, and the construction of a suitable version of a sparse operator on spaces of homogeneous type. As applications, we provide a two weight commutator theorem (including the high order commutators) for the following Calderon–Zygmund operators: Cauchy integral operator on $${\mathbb {R}}$$ , Cauchy–Szego projection operator on Heisenberg groups, Szego projection operators on a family of unbounded weakly pseudoconvex domains, the Riesz transform associated with the sub-Laplacian on stratified Lie groups, as well as the Bessel Riesz transforms (in one and several dimensions).
