Abstract

:
We establish one-sided weighted endpoint estimates for the ϱ -variation ( ϱ > 2 ) operators of one-sided singular integrals under certain priori assumption by applying one-sided Calderón–Zygmund argument. Using one-sided sharp maximal estimates, we further prove that the ϱ -variation operators of related commutators are bounded on one-sided weighted Lebesgue and Morrey spaces. In addition, we also show that these operators are bounded from one-sided weighted Morrey spaces to one-sided weighted Campanato spaces. As applications, we obtain some results for the λ -jump operators and the numbers of up-crossings. Our main results represent one-sided extensions of many previously known ones.

1. Introduction

Given a family of bounded operators T = { T ϵ } ϵ > 0 acting between spaces of functions, one of the most significative problems in harmonic analysis is the existence of limits lim ϵ 0 + T ϵ f and lim ϵ T ϵ f , when f belongs to a certain space of functions. The question that arises naturally is how to measure the speed of convergence of the above limits. A classic method is to investigate square functions of the type ( i = 1 | T ϵ i f T ϵ i + 1 f | 2 ) 1 / 2 . Along this line, there is a more general way to study the following oscillation operator
O ( T ) f ( x ) = i = 1 sup t i + 1 ϵ i + 1 < ϵ i t i | T ϵ i + 1 f ( x ) T ϵ i f ( x ) | 2 1 / 2 ,
with { t i } being a fixed sequence decreasing to zero. However, beyond that, another typical method is to consider the ϱ -variation operator defined by
V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) = sup { ϵ i } 0 i = 1 | T ϵ i f ( x ) T ϵ i + 1 f ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ ,
where ϱ > 2 and the supremum runs over all sequences { ϵ i } of positive numbers decreasing to zero.
The investigation on variation inequalities is an active research topic in probability, ergodic theory and harmonic analysis. The first variation inequality was proved by Lépingle [15] for martingales (also see [25] for a simple proof). Bourgain [2] proved the similar variation estimates for the ergodic averages of a dynamic system later. Bourgain’s work has inspired a number of authors to investigate oscillation and variation inequalities for several families of operators from ergodic theory (see [12,13,24] for examples) and harmonic analysis (cf. [3,4,6,11,14]). Recently, the variation inequalities and their weighed case for singular integrals and related operators have also been studied by many authors. The first work in this direction is due to Campbell et al. [3] who proved that O ( H ) and V ϱ ( H ) with ϱ > 2 are of type ( p , p ) for 1 < p < and of weak type ( 1 , 1 ) , where H = { H ϵ } ϵ > 0 is the family of the truncated Hilbert transforms, i.e., H ϵ f ( x ) = | x y | > ϵ f ( y ) x y d y . Subsequently, the aforementioned authors [4] also studied the variation operators related to the classical Riesz transform in R d for d 2 . In 2004, Gillespie and Torrea [9] established the L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) bounds for O ( H ) and V ϱ ( H ) with ϱ > 2 , 1 < p < and w A p (the Muckenhoupt weights class) (also see [10,14] for the related investigations). Later on, Crescimbeni et al. [5] proved that O ( H ) and V ϱ ( H ) with ρ > 2 map L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) into L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) for w A 1 . In particular, Ma et al. [21,22] presented the weighted oscillation and variation inequalities for differential operators and Calderón–Zygmund singular integrals. Recently, Liu and Wu [19] established the weighted oscillation and variational inequalities for the commutator of one-dimensional Calderón–Zygmund singular integrals.
The primary purpose of this paper is to study weighted boundedness of oscillation and variational operators for one-sided singular integrals and their commutators. We say a function K belongs to one-sided Calderón–Zygmund kernel OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) if K L loc 1 ( R { 0 } ) satisfies the following conditions: there exist constants B 1 , B 2 , B 3 > 0 such that
| { ϵ < | x | < N } K ( x ) d x | B 1 for all ϵ and all N with 0 < ϵ < N ,
and furthermore lim ϵ 0 + ϵ < | x | < N K ( x ) d x exists,
| K ( x ) | B 2 | x | 1 for all x 0 ,
| K ( x y ) K ( x ) | B 3 | y | | x | 2 for all x and y with | x | > 2 | y | .
An example of a one-sided Calderón–Zygmund kernel is K ( x ) = sin ( log x ) x log x χ ( 0 , ) ; see [1]. We mention here that the kernel of one-sided truncated Hilbert Transform, K 0 ( x ) = 1 x χ ( 0 , ) , is not a OCZK for there does not exist a B 1 > 0 such that the first condition above holds.
Let K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) and b BMO ( R ) . For m N , we consider the one-sided operator
T b + , m f ( x ) = lim ϵ 0 + T ϵ + , b , m f ( x ) = p . v . x ( b ( x ) b ( y ) ) m K ( x y ) f ( y ) d y ,
where
T ϵ + , b , m f ( x ) : = x + ϵ ( b ( x ) b ( y ) ) m K ( x y ) f ( y ) d y .
For m 1 , the operator T b + , m is the m-th order commutator of one-sided singular integral. When m = 0 , we denote by T ϵ + , b , 0 = T ϵ + , and then the operator T b + , m reduces to the one-sided Calderón–Zygmund singular integral operator T + , which is defined by
T + f ( x ) = lim ϵ 0 + T ϵ + f ( x ) = p . v . x K ( x y ) f ( y ) d y .
In 1997, Aimar et al. [1] observed that the operator T + maps L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) into L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) for 1 < p < and w A p + , and maps L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) into L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) for w A 1 + . Subsequently, Lorente and Riveros [20] proved that there exist constants C > 0 such that
T b + , m f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C b BMO ( R ) m f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x )
for w A p + and 1 < p < , and
w ( { x : | T b + , m f ( x ) | > λ } ) C ϕ m ( b BMO ( R ) m ) R | f ( x ) | λ 1 + log + | f ( x ) | λ m w ( x ) d x
for w A 1 + and λ > 0 , where ϕ m ( t ) = t ( 1 + log + t ) m and z + = max { z , 0 } . Other interesting related results for the one-sided operators we may refer to [7,8,16,17,18], among others.
At first, we shall establish the one-sided weighted endpoint and strong estimates for the ϱ -variation ( ϱ > 2 ) operators of one-sided singular integral and its commutator. Let us recall the one-sided weighted BMO spaces.
Definition 1. (One-sided weighted BMO spaces.)
For a weight w, the one-sided weighted BMO spaces BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) is defined by
BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) : = { f L loc 1 ( R , d x ) : f BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) : = M + , f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) < } .
Here, M + , is one-sided sharp maximal operator defined by
M + , f ( x ) = sup h > 0 1 h x x + h f ( y ) 1 h x + h x + 2 h f ( z ) d z + d y .
Remark 1.
When w ( x ) 1 , the space BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) reduces to the one-sided BMO space BMO + ( R ) , which was introduced by Martín-Reyes and de la Torre [23]. It was proved in [23] that
M + , f ( x ) sup h > 0 inf a R 1 h x x + h ( f ( y ) a ) + d y + 1 h x + h x + 2 h ( a f ( y ) ) + d y f BMO ( R )
for any x R . This yields that BMO ( R ) BMO + ( R ) .
We now list our first main result as follows:
Theorem 1.
Let m N , ϱ > 2 , b BMO ( R ) and K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with supported in ( , 0 ) . Let T b m = { T ϵ + , b , m } ϵ > 0 and T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in Equation (1) and (2), respectively. Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , d x ) L q ( R , d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) . Then,
(i)
for any w A 1 + and f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) , it holds that
V ϱ ( T ) f L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ;
(ii)
for any 1 < p < , w A p + and f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) , it holds that
V ϱ ( T b m ) f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C b BMO ( R ) m f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ;
(iii)
for a weight w satisfying w 1 A 1 and f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) , it holds that
V ϱ ( T ) f BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
In addition, we also investigate the boundedness behavior of the ρ -variation operators of one-sided singular integral and its commutator on one-sided weighted Morrey spaces and Companato spaces. In order to study the boundedness of one-sided singular integral operator on weighted Morrey spaces and Campanato spaces, Shi and Fu [27] introduced the one-sided weighted Morrey spaces and one-sided weighted Campanato spaces, which are defined as follows:
Definition 2. (One-sided weighted Morrey spaces and Campanato spaces.)
Let 1 p < , 1 / p β < 0 and w be a weight on R .
(i)
One-sided weighted Morrey spaces L p , β , + ( w ) are defined by
L p , β , + ( w ) : = { f L loc p ( R , d x ) : f L p , β , + ( w ) < + } ,
where
f L p , β , + ( w ) : = sup x 0 R sup h > 0 1 h β 1 w ( ( x 0 h , x 0 ) ) x 0 x 0 + h | f ( x ) | p d x 1 / p .
(ii)
One-sided weighted Campanato spaces L p , β , + ( w ) are given by
L p , β , + ( w ) : = { f L loc p ( R , d x ) : f L p , β , + ( w ) < + } ,
where
f L p , β , + ( w ) : = sup x 0 R sup h > 0 1 h β 1 w ( ( x 0 h , x 0 ) ) x 0 x 0 + h | f ( x ) f ( x 0 , x 0 + h ) | p d x 1 / p .
Remark 2.
It is well known that the following are valid:
f L p , β , + ( w ) sup x 0 R sup h > 0 inf a R 1 h β 1 w ( ( x 0 h , x 0 ) ) x 0 x 0 + h | f ( x ) a | p d x 1 / p ;
L p , β , + ( w ) L p , β , + ( w ) .
The rest of the main results can be listed as follows.
Theorem 2.
Let m N , ϱ > 2 , b BMO ( R ) and K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) . Let T b m = { T ϵ + , b , m } ϵ > 0 and T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in Equation (1) and (2), respectively. Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , d x ) L q ( R , d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) . Then,
(i)
for any 1 < p < 1 / ( β + 1 ) , 1 / p β < 0 , w A p + and f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
V ϱ ( T b m ) f L p , β , + ( w ) b BMO ( R ) m f L p , β , + ( w ) ;
(ii)
for any 1 < p < , 1 / p β < 0 , w A p + and f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
V ϱ ( T ) f L p , β , + ( w ) f L p , β , + ( w ) .
Remark 3.
We remark that we deal only with ϱ > 2 for the variation operators in our main theorems, since it was pointed out in [2] that the variation is often not bounded in the case ϱ 2 . In addition, it is unknown what are the endpoint estimates of the variation operators for the commutators of one-sided singular integrals and whether the above operators are bounded from one-sided weighted Morrey spaces to one-sided weighted Campanato spaces, which are interesting.
This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we shall present some basic definitions and necessary lemmas. In Section 3, we give the proofs of Theorems 1 and 2. As applications, we present the corresponding estimates for the λ -jump operators and the number of up-crossing for these operators in Section 4. Finally, some further comments will be given in Section 5. We would like to remark that our works and ideas are taken from [9,19]. It should also be pointed out that all results in this paper are valid for oscillation operator with similar arguments.
Throughout this paper, for any p ( 1 , ) , we denote by p the dual exponent to p, i.e., 1 / p + 1 / p = 1 . The letter C will represent a positive constant that may vary at each occurrence but is independent of the essential variables. For a weight w, an interval I and a function f : R R , we denote by w ( I ) = I w ( x ) d x and f I = 1 | I | I f ( x ) d x . We also use the convention i a i = 0 .

2. Preliminaries

We start with the definitions of one-sided Hardy–Littlewood maximal functions
M + f ( x ) = sup h > 0 1 h x x + h | f ( y ) | d y and M f ( x ) = sup h > 0 1 h x h x | f ( y ) | d y .
For r > 0 , we set M r + f ( x ) : = ( M + | f | r ( x ) ) 1 / r .
By a weight, we mean a nonnegative measurable function.
Definition 3.
[26] Let 1 < p < . A weight w belongs
to the class A p + (resp., A p ), if [ w ] A p + < (resp., [ w ] A p < ), where
[ w ] A p + : = sup a < b < c 1 ( c a ) p a b w ( x ) d x b c w ( x ) 1 p d x p 1 ,
[ w ] A p : = sup a < b < c 1 ( c a ) p b c w ( x ) d x a b w ( x ) 1 p d x p 1 .
A weight w belongs to the class A 1 + (resp., A 1 ), if [ w ] A 1 + < (resp., [ w ] A 1 < ), where
[ w ] A 1 + : = sup x R w ( x ) 1 M w ( x ) and [ w ] A 1 : = sup x R w ( x ) 1 M + w ( x ) .
Since the A p + and A p classes are increasing with respect to p, the A + (resp., A ) class of weights is defined in a natural way by A + = 1 < p < A p + (resp., A = 1 < p < A p ) with
[ w ] A + : = inf 1 < p < inf w A p + [ w ] A p + , [ w ] A : = inf 1 < p < inf w A p [ w ] A p .
It is easy to see that A p A p + , A p A p and A p = A p + A p . Take e x for example, e x A 1 , but e x A 1 + . Here, A p denotes the usual Muckenhoupt weight.
It was shown in [26] that, for any 1 < p < , M + : L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) is bounded if and only if w A p + ; moreover, M + : L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) is bounded if and only if w A 1 + . The same results hold for M if w A p + replaced by w A p for 1 p < .
The following lemma will play key roles in our main proofs.
Lemma  1.
(i) 
Let 1 p and w A p + . Then, for all x 0 R and h > 0 ,
w ( x 0 h , x 0 + h ) ( 1 + 2 p [ w ] A p + ) w ( x 0 , x 0 + h ) .
(ii) 
Let 1 p and w A p + . Then, for all x 0 R , h > 0 and λ 1 ,
w ( x 0 λ h , x 0 ) λ p ( 2 p [ w ] A p + + ( 2 p [ w ] A p + ) 2 ) w ( x 0 , x 0 + h ) .
Proof. 
Fix h > 0 and x 0 R and we set I = ( x 0 h , x 0 + h ) . Given two functions f, g defined on R , by Hölder’s inequality, we get
1 | I | I | f ( x ) g ( x ) | d x p 1 | I | p I | f ( x ) | p w ( x ) d x I | g ( x ) | p w ( x ) 1 p d x p / p 1 | I | I w ( x ) d x 1 | I | I | g ( x ) | p w ( x ) 1 p d x p 1 1 w ( I ) I | f ( x ) | p w ( x ) d x .
Applying Equation (7) to the functions f = χ I + and g = χ I + , we get
w ( I ) 2 p [ w ] A p + w ( I + ) .
Then, (5) follows easily from (8).
On the other hand, we get from (7) that
1 | λ I | λ I | f ( x ) g ( x ) | d x p 1 | λ I | ( λ I ) w ( x ) d x 1 | λ I | λ I | g ( x ) | p w ( x ) 1 p d x p 1 × 1 w ( ( λ I ) ) λ I | f ( x ) | p w ( x ) d x .
Applying (9) to the functions f = χ I and g = χ ( λ I ) + , we have
w ( ( λ I ) ) ( 2 λ ) p [ w ] A p + w ( I ) ,
which together with (5) yields (6). □
By Lemma 2.1 in [26] and the similar argument as in classical Calderón–Zygmund decomposition for the usual Hardy–Littlewood maximal function, one can get the following Calderón–Zygmund decomposition for M + , which will be crucial for the proof of Lemma 3.
Lemma 2.
Let f L 1 ( R , d x ) and α > 0 . Let Ω = { x : M + f ( x ) > α } . Then, Ω can be decomposed into finitely many disjoint intervals of integers: Ω = i I i with the following properties:
(i) 
f = g + φ , where g = f χ R Ω and g = f I i on I i for each i;
(ii) 
φ = i φ i , where φ i = ( f f I i ) χ I i ;
(iii) 
g L ( R , d x ) 2 α and g L 1 ( R , d x ) f L 1 ( R , d x ) ;
(iv) 
for each i, I i φ i ( y ) d y = 0 and 1 | I i | I i | φ i ( y ) | d y 4 α ;
(v) 
i | I i | α 1 f L 1 ( R , d x ) .

3. Proofs of Main Results

Following [9], let Θ = { β : β = { ϵ i } , ϵ i R , ϵ i 0 } and F ϱ be the mixed norm Banach space of two variables function h defined on N × Θ such that
h F ϱ sup β i | h ( i , β ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ < .
Given a family of operators T = { T t } t > 0 defined on L p ( R , d x ) , we consider the F ϱ -valued operator V ( T ) : f V ( T ) f on L p ( R , d x ) given by
V ( T ) f ( x ) : = T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] f ( x ) β = { ϵ i } Θ ,
where the expression { T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] f ( x ) } β = { ϵ i } Θ is an abbreviation for the element of F ϱ given by
( i , β ) = ( i , { ϵ i } ) T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] f ( x ) : = T ϵ i + 1 f ( x ) T ϵ i f ( x ) .
Observe that
V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) = V ( T ) f ( x ) F ϱ , x R .
In order to prove Theorem 1, we shall establish the following key result.
Lemma 3.
Let ϱ > 2 and K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) . Let T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in Equation (2). Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , w ( x ) d x ) L q ( R , w ( x ) d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) and w A q + . Then,
V ϱ ( T ) f L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) , f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) and w A 1 + .
Proof. 
We shall adopt the classical Calderón–Zygmund argument to prove Lemma 3. Let Ω = { x : M + f ( x ) > 1 } . Invoking Lemma 2, we can decompose Ω as Ω = j I j and decompose f as f = g + φ , where all I j are disjoint intervals, g = f χ R Ω + j f I j χ I j , φ = j φ j , φ j = ( f f I j ) χ I j , g L ( R , d x ) 2 , g L 1 ( R , d x ) f L 1 ( R , d x ) , and for each j, I j φ j ( y ) d y = 0 and 1 | I j | I j | φ j ( y ) | d y 4 . It suffices to show that
w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) > 1 } ) C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
It is clear that
w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) > 1 } ) w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) g ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) + w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) .
By our assumption,
w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) g ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) 2 q R | V ϱ ( T ) g ( x ) | q w ( x ) d x C R | g ( x ) | q w ( x ) d x C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
We set I j = ( c j , c j + | I j | ) and Ω * = j ( c j 2 | I j | , c j + 2 | I j | ) , then
w ( { x : V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) w ( Ω * ) + w ( { x R Ω * : V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) .
Using Lemma 1 (i) and the L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) L 1 , ( R , w ( x ) d x ) bounds for M + , one has
w ( Ω * ) C j w ( I j ) = C w ( Ω ) C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
We now turn to prove
w ( { x R Ω * : V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) C f L 1 ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
For every x R Ω * , we can choose a decreasing sequence { ϵ i } (that depends on x) such that
V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) 2 i | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ .
For each i and x R Ω * , we set B i ( x ) = ( x + ϵ i + 1 , x + ϵ i ] and
N i , 1 = { j : I j B i ( x ) } and N i , 2 = { j : I j B i ( x ) , I j B i ( x ) } .
We notice that the cardinal of the N i , 2 is at most two. Thus, it holds that
V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) 2 i | j N i , 1 T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ + 2 i | j N i , 2 T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ 2 i j N i , 1 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | + 4 i j N i , 2 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ .
It follows that
w ( { x R Ω * : V ϱ ( T ) φ ( x ) > 1 / 2 } ) w x R Ω * : i j N i , 1 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | > 1 8 + w x R Ω * : i j N i , 2 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | ϱ 1 / ϱ > 1 16 .
Fix x R Ω * . Note that | x c j | 2 | I j | > 2 | y c j | for any y I j . Then, | K ( x y ) K ( x c j ) | B 3 | x c j | 2 | y c j | . This together with the properties of φ j yield that
| T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | = | R ( K ( x y ) K ( x c j ) ) φ j ( y ) d y | 2 B 3 | I j | | x c j | 2 I j | f ( y ) | d y .
Observing that T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) = 0 if x > c j + | I j | , we thus have
w x R Ω * : i j N i , 1 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | > 1 8 8 R Ω * i j N i , 1 | T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | w ( x ) d x 16 B 3 j | I j | ( , c j 2 | I j | ] w ( x ) | x c j | 2 d x I j | f ( y ) | d y .
Fix y I j . One can easily check that c j x 2 ( y x ) / 3 for any x c j 2 | I j | . Then,
( , c j 2 | I j | ] w ( x ) | x c j | δ d x k = 1 [ c j 2 k + 1 | I j | , c j 2 k | I j | ] w ( x ) | x c j | δ d x k = 1 ( 2 k | I j | ) δ 2 k + 3 | I j | 1 2 k + 3 | I j | y 2 k + 3 | I j | y w ( x ) d x C ( δ ) | I j | 1 δ M w ( y )
for any δ > 1 . By (19) and (20) (with δ = 2 ) and w A 1 + , we have

Fix x R Ω * . Note that T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) = 0 when x > c j + | I j | . Moreover, y x c j x 0 for any y I j . Then,
| T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + φ j ( x ) | B 2 B i ( x ) | φ j ( y ) | | x y | d y B 2 | x c j | 1 χ ( , c j 2 | I j | ] ( x ) B i ( x ) | φ j ( y ) | d y .
Combining this with (20) (with δ = ϱ ) implies that

which together with (21) and (18) yields (17). Then, (12) follows from (13)–(17). This proves Lemma 3. □
Applying similar arguments used in deriving Lemma 3, we can get the following:
Corollary 1.
Let K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) . Let ϱ > 2 and T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in Equation (2). Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , d x ) L q ( R , d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) . Then,
V ϱ ( T ) f L 1 , ( R , d x ) C f L 1 ( R , d x ) , f L 1 ( R , d x ) .
The following lemma will play a pivotal role in the proof of Theorem 1.
Lemma 4.
Let m N , ϱ > 2 , b BMO ( R ) and K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) . Let T b m = { T ϵ + , b , m } ϵ > 0 and T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in Equations (1) and (2), respectively. Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , d x ) L q ( R , d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) . Then, for any r > 1 and x R , it holds that
M + , ( V ϱ ( T b m ) f ) ( x ) C i = 0 m 1 b BMO ( R ) m i M r + ( V ϱ T b i f ) ( x ) + b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x ) .
Proof. 
We only prove (22) for the case 1 < r < min { q , 2 } , since M r 1 + f M r 2 + f for any r 2 r 1 . Invoking Corollary 1, we see that V ϱ ( T ) is of weak type (1, 1). By the Marcinkiewicz interpolation theorem and our assumption, we have that V ϱ ( T ) is bounded on L p ( R , d x ) for any 1 < p < q . Fix x 0 R and h > 0 . We decompose f as f = f 1 + f 2 + f 3 , where f 1 = f χ [ x 0 , x 0 + 2 h ] and f 2 = f χ ( x 0 + 2 h , ) . Let I = [ x 0 2 h , x 0 + 2 h ] . In view of (3), to prove (22), we only prove
1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f ( y ) V ϱ ( T b m ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) | d y C i = 0 m 1 b BMO ( R ) m i M r + ( V ϱ T b i f ) ( x ) + b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x ) ,
where C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . Using the arguments similar to those used in deriving the inequality (11) in [20], we get
T ϵ + , b , m f ( y ) = T ϵ + ( ( b b I ) m f ) ( y ) + k = 0 m 1 C k , m ( b ( y ) b I ) m k T ϵ + , b , k f ( y ) , y R .
Note that T ϵ + , b , k f 3 ( y ) = 0 for any ϵ > 0 , 0 k m 1 and y x 0 . (24) leads to
V ( T b m ) f ( y ) = V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 1 ) ( y ) + V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( y ) + k = 0 m 1 C k , m ( b ( y ) b I ) m k V ( T b k ) f ( y ) , y x 0 .
We notice from (11) that
1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f ( y ) V ϱ ( T b m ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) | d y = 1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ( T b m ) f ( y ) F ϱ V ( T b m ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) F ϱ | d y 1 h x 0 x 0 + h V ( T b m ) f ( y ) V ( T b m ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) F ϱ d y .
This together with (25) and (11) yield that
1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f ( y ) V ϱ ( T b m ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) | d y 1 h x 0 x 0 + h V ϱ ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 1 ) ( y ) d y + k = 0 m 1 C k , m 1 h x 0 x 0 + h | b ( y ) b I | m k V ϱ ( T b k ) f ( y ) d y + 1 h x 0 x 0 + h V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( y ) V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) F ϱ d y = : I 1 + I 2 + I 3 .
Observe that, for any δ > 1 and k N ,
1 | 2 k I | 2 k I | b ( z ) b I | δ d z 2 δ 1 1 | 2 k I | 2 k I | b ( z ) b 2 k I | δ d z + | b I b 2 k I | δ C ( δ ) ( k + 1 ) δ b BMO ( R ) δ .
We set ρ = r . By Hölder’s inequality, the L ρ boundedness for V ϱ ( T ) and (27), we have
I 1 1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 1 ) ( y ) | ρ d y 1 / ρ C ( ρ ) 1 h x 0 x 0 + 2 h | ( b ( y ) b I ) m f ( y ) | ρ d y 1 / ρ C ( ρ ) 1 h x 0 x 0 + 2 h | f ( y ) | r d y 1 / r 1 | I | I | b ( y ) b I | m ρ ρ d y 1 / ρ ρ C ( m , r ) b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x 0 )
and
I 2 k = 0 m 1 C k , m 1 h x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b k ) f ( y ) | r d y 1 / r 1 | I | | I | | ( b ( y ) b I ) ( m k ) r d y 1 / r C ( m , r ) k = 0 m 1 C k , m b BMO ( R ) m k M r + ( V ϱ ( T b k ) f ) ( x 0 ) .
For I 3 , let y [ x 0 , x 0 + h ] and β = { ϵ i } Θ , since
T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( y ) T [ ϵ i + 1 , ϵ i ] + ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) = R [ K ( y z ) χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) K ( x 0 z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ] ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z = R ( K ( y z ) K ( x 0 z ) ) χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z + R [ K ( x 0 z ) ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z .
It follows that
V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( y ) V ( T ) ( ( b b I ) m f 2 ) ( x 0 ) F ϱ R ( K ( y z ) K ( x 0 z ) ) χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ + { R K ( x 0 z ) ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) × ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z } i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ = : I 11 + I 12 .
Since | x 0 z | > 2 h 2 | x 0 y | for z > x 0 + 2 h , then | K ( y z ) K ( x 0 z ) | B 3 | x 0 y | | x 0 z | 2 B 3 h | x 0 z | 2 for any z > x 0 + 2 h . Note that
{ χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) } i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ 1 , y R .
By Minkowski’s inequality, Hölder’s inequality and (27) with δ = m r , we obtain
I 11 R | K ( y z ) K ( x 0 z ) | { χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) } i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ × | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | d z B 3 h x 0 + 2 h | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f ( z ) | ( z x 0 ) 2 d z B 3 h k = 1 x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f ( z ) | ( 2 k h ) 2 d z 4 B 3 k = 1 2 k 1 2 k + 1 h x 0 x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | r d z 1 / r 1 | 2 k I | 2 k I | b ( z ) b I | m r d z 1 / r 4 B 3 k = 1 ( k + 1 ) m 2 k b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x 0 ) C ( m , r , B 3 ) b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x 0 ) .
It remains to estimate I 12 . Fix { ϵ i } Θ . Let N 1 = { i Z : ϵ i ϵ i + 1 y x 0 } and N 2 = { i Z : ϵ i ϵ i + 1 < y x 0 } . We can write
i Z | R K ( x 0 z ) ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z | ρ i N 1 | R K ( x 0 z ) ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z | ρ + i N 2 | R K ( x 0 z ) ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) d z | ρ = : J 11 + J 12 .
By Hölder’s inequality, we obtain
J 11 B 2 ρ i N 1 | R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | | x 0 z | ( χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i + 1 ] ( z ) + χ ( x 0 + ϵ i , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) d z | ρ ( 4 B 2 ) ρ i N 1 | R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | | x 0 z | χ ( x 0 + ϵ i , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z | ρ ( 4 B 2 ) ρ h ρ 1 i N 1 R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z ( 4 B 2 ) ρ h ρ 1 R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z .
J 12 B 2 ρ i N 2 | R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | | x 0 z | ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) + χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) ) d z | ρ ( 2 B 2 ) ρ i N 2 | R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | | x 0 z | ( χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z | ρ + ( 2 B 2 ) ρ i N 2 | R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | | x 0 z | χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z | ρ h ρ 1 ( 2 B 2 ) ρ i N 2 R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ χ ( y + ϵ i + 1 , y + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z + h ρ 1 ( 2 B 2 ) ρ i N 2 R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ χ ( x 0 + ϵ i + 1 , x 0 + ϵ i ] ( z ) d z 2 ( 2 B 2 ) ρ h ρ 1 R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z .
It follows from (32)–(34) that
I 12 C ( B 2 , r ) h 1 1 / ρ R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z 1 / ρ .
By Hölder’s inequality and (27) (with δ = m ρ ρ ), we have
R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z = k = 1 x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z k = 1 ( 2 k h ) ρ x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f ( z ) | ρ d z 4 h 1 ρ k = 1 2 k ( ρ 1 ) 1 2 k + 1 h x 0 x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | r d z 1 / ρ × 1 | 2 k I | 2 k I | b ( z ) b I | m ρ ρ d z 1 / ρ 4 h 1 ρ b BMO ( R ) m ρ k = 1 ( k + 1 ) m ρ 2 k ( ρ 1 ) ( M r + f ( x 0 ) ) ρ .
This yields directly
R | ( b ( z ) b I ) m f 2 ( z ) | ρ | x 0 z | ρ d z C ( m , r ) h 1 ρ b BMO ( R ) m ρ ( M r + f ( x 0 ) ) ρ .
Combining (36) with (35) yields (37) together with (30) and (31) implies
I 12 C ( m , r , B 2 ) b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x 0 ) ,
I 3 C ( m , r , B 2 , B 3 ) b BMO ( R ) m M r + f ( x 0 ) .
Combining (38) with (26), (28) and (29) yields (23). This completes the proof. □
We now turn to prove our main results.
Proof of Theorem 1.
We first prove (i). For any w A p + with 1 < p < , there exists r ( 1 , p ) such that w A p / r + . Then, we have
M r + f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) M + | f | r L p / r ( R , w ( x ) d x ) 1 / r C p , r f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
On the other hand, it was proved in [23] that
M + f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C M + , f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x )
for 1 < p < and w A + . We get from (22), (39) and (40) and that
V ϱ ( T ) f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) M + ( V ϱ ( T ) f ) L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C M + , ( V ϱ ( T ) f ) ) L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C M r + f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) .
This together with Lemma 3 yields Theorem 1 (i).
Applying Lemma 4 and the arguments similar to those used in deriving Theorem 1.3 in [19], we can get Theorem 1 (ii). The details are omitted.
We now prove (iii). For w 1 A 1 , there exists r > 1 such that w r A 1 . Thus, for any x R ,
M r + f ( x ) w ( x ) = w ( x ) sup h > 0 1 h x x + h ( | f ( y ) | w ( y ) ) r w r ( y ) d y 1 / r f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) w ( x ) ( M + ( w r ) ( x ) ) 1 / r w r A 1 f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ,
which together with (23) yield that
V ϱ ( T ) f BMO + ( R , w ( x ) d x ) = M + , ( V ϱ ( T ) f ) ) L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C M r + f L ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C f L ( R , w ( x ) d x )
for any 1 < r < . This proves Theorem 1. □
Proof of Theorem 2.
Fix x 0 R and h > 0 . It suffices to show that
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f ( x ) | p d x 1 / p C b BMO ( R ) m h β f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
where C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . Let f 1 = f χ [ x 0 , x 0 + 2 h ) , f 2 = f χ [ x 0 + 2 h , ) and f 3 = f f 1 f 2 . Let I = [ x 0 2 h , x 0 + 2 h ] . Note that T ϵ + , b , m f 3 ( x ) = 0 for any ϵ > 0 and x x 0 . It follows that V ϱ ( T b m ) f 3 ( x ) = 0 for all x x 0 . Thus, we can write
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f ( x ) | p d x 1 / p 1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f 1 ( x ) | p d x 1 / p + 1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T b m ) f 2 ( x ) | p d x 1 / p = : S 1 + S 2 .
Invoking Lemma 1 (i) and Theorem 1 (ii), there exists C > 0 independent of x 0 , h , such that
S 1 C b BMO ( R ) m 1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + 2 h | f ( x ) | p d x 1 / p C b BMO ( R ) m w ( x 0 2 h , x 0 ) w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) 1 w ( x 0 2 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + 2 h | f ( x ) | p d x 1 / p C b BMO ( R ) m h β f L p , β , + ( w ) .
Applying Lemma 1 (ii), there exists C > 0 independent of x 0 , h such that
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | p d z 1 / p w ( x 0 h 2 k + 2 h , x 0 h ) w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) 1 w ( x 0 h 2 k + 2 h , x 0 h ) x 0 h x 0 h + 2 k + 2 h | f ( z ) | p d z 1 / p C 2 ( k + 2 ) ( 1 + β ) h β f L p , β , + ( w ) .
One can easily check that | x z | > | z x 0 | / 2 for x [ x 0 , x 0 + h ] and z [ x 0 + 2 h , ) . Fix x [ x 0 , x 0 + h ] . Then, by (11) and Minkowski’s inequality, we have
V ϱ ( T b m ) f 2 ( x ) = V ( T b m ) f 2 ( x ) F ϱ ϵ i + 1 < z x ϵ i K ( x z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m f 2 ( z ) d z i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ R | K ( x z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m f 2 ( z ) | χ ϵ i + 1 < z x ϵ i i N , β = { ϵ i } Θ F ϱ d z C R | f 2 ( z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m | | z x 0 | d z ,
where C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . It is clear that
R | f 2 ( z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m | | z x 0 | d z = k = 1 x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m | | z x 0 | d z .
Fix k 1 . By Hölder’s inequality, we obtain
x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m | | z x 0 | d z 2 m ( 2 k h ) 1 x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | | b ( x ) b 2 k I | m d z + x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | | b ( z ) b 2 k I | m d z 2 m ( 2 k h ) 1 / p | b ( x ) b 2 k I | m x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | p d z 1 / p + 2 m ( 2 k h ) 1 x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) | p d z 1 / p x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | b ( z ) b 2 k I | m p d z 1 / p .
This together with (27) and (44) yields that
x 0 + 2 k h x 0 + 2 k + 1 h | f ( z ) ( b ( x ) b ( z ) ) m | | z x 0 | d z C 2 k ( 1 + β ) h β f L p , β , + ( w ) ( 2 k h ) 1 / p w ( ( x 0 h , x 0 ) ) 1 / p ( | b ( x ) b 2 k I | m + b BMO ( R ) m ) .
Here, C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . By (45) and (46) and Hölder’s inequality, we have
S 2 C h β f L p , β , + ( w ) k = 1 2 k ( 1 + β ) ( 2 k h ) 1 / p × x 0 x 0 + h | ( | b ( x ) b 2 k I | m + b BMO ( R ) m ) | p d x 1 / p C h β f L p , β , + ( w ) k = 1 2 k ( 1 + β ) ( 2 k h ) 1 / p × x 0 x 0 + h ( 2 m | b ( x ) b I | m + 2 m | b I b 2 k I | m + b BMO ( R ) m ) p d x 1 / p C b BMO ( R ) m h β f L p , β , + ( w ) k = 1 ( k + 1 ) m 2 ( 1 / p 1 β ) k C b BMO ( R ) m h β f L p , β , + ( w ) .
Here, C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . In the last inequality of (47), we have used the condition 1 / p > 1 + β . (47) together with (42) and (43) yield (41).
Next, we prove (ii). Let f 1 = f χ [ x 0 , x 0 + 2 h ) , f 2 = f χ [ x 0 + 2 h , ) and f 3 = f f 1 f 2 . Let I = [ x 0 2 h , x 0 + 2 h ] . By (4), we want to show that
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) V ϱ ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) | p d x 1 / p C h β f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
where C > 0 independent of x 0 , h . Using (11) and Minkowski’s inequality, one has
| V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) V ϱ ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) | = | V ( T ) f ( x ) F ϱ V ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) F ϱ | V ( T ) f ( x ) V ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) F ϱ | V ϱ ( T ) f 1 ( x ) | + V ( T ) f 2 ( x ) V ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) F ϱ .
This together with Minkowski’s inequality again yield that
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) V ϱ ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) | p d x 1 / p 1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T ) f 1 ( x ) | p d x 1 / p + 1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h V ( T ) f 2 ( x ) V ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) F ϱ p d x 1 / p .
We get from (43) (with m = 0 ) that
1 w ( x 0 h , x 0 ) x 0 x 0 + h | V ϱ ( T ) f 1 ( x ) | p d x 1 / p C h β f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
where C > 0 is independent of x 0 , h . Fix x [ x 0 , x 0 + h ] . (30), (31) and (35) (with m = 0 ) imply that
V ( T ) f 2 ( x ) V ( T ) f 2 ( x 0 ) F ϱ B 3 h R | f 2 ( z ) | | z x 0 | 2 d z + C ( B 2 , p ) h 1 1 / p R | f 2 ( z ) | p | x 0 z | p d z 1 / p .
It follows that

4. λ -Jump Operators and the Number of Up-Crossing

This section is devoted to study the λ -jump operators and the number of up-crossing associated with the operators sequence { T ϵ + , b , m } ϵ > 0 , which give certain quantitative information on the convergence of the above families of operators.
Definition 4.
Given a family of bounded operators T = { T ϵ } ϵ > 0 acting between spaces of functions, the λ-jump operator associated with T applied to a function f at a point x is defined by
Λ λ ( T ) f ( x ) : = sup { n : there exist s 1 < t 1 s 2 < t 2 < s n < t n such that | T s i f ( x ) T t i f ( x ) | > λ } .
For 0 < α < γ , the number of up-crossing associated with T applied to a function f at a point x is defined by
N α , γ ( T ) f ( x ) : = sup { n : there exist s 1 < t 1 < s 2 < t 2 < . . . < s n < t n such that T s i f ( x ) < α , T t i f ( x ) > γ } .
It was shown in [11] that, if the λ -jump operators is finite a.e. for each choice of λ > 0 , then we must have a.e. convergence of our family of operators. Moreover,
λ ( Λ λ ( T ) f ( x ) ) 1 / ϱ V ϱ ( T ) f ( x ) and N α , λ ( T ) f ( x ) Λ λ α ( T ) f ( x ) , λ > α > 0 .
By Theorem 1 (ii) and Theorem 2 and (54), we can get the following result.
Theorem 3.
Let m N , ϱ > 2 , b BMO ( R ) and K OCZK ( B 1 , B 2 , B 3 ) with support in ( , 0 ) . Let T b m = { T ϵ + , b , m } ϵ > 0 and T = { T ϵ + } ϵ > 0 be given as in ( 1 . 1 ) and ( 1 . 2 ) , respectively. Let λ > α > 0 . Assume that V ϱ ( T ) L q ( R , d x ) L q ( R , d x ) < for some q ( 1 , ) . Then,
(i) 
for any 1 < p < , w A p + and f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ,
( Λ λ ( T b m ) f ) 1 / ϱ L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C ( p , ϱ ) λ b BMO ( R ) m f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ;
( N α , λ ( T b m ) f ) 1 / ϱ L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) C ( p , ϱ ) λ α b BMO ( R ) m f L p ( R , w ( x ) d x ) ;
(ii) 
for any 1 < p < 1 / ( β + 1 ) , 1 / p β < 0 , w A p + and f L p , β , + ( w ) ,
( Λ λ ( T b m ) f ) 1 / ϱ L p , β , + ( w ) C ( p , ϱ ) λ b BMO ( R ) m f L p , β , + ( w ) ;
( N α , λ ( T b m ) f ) 1 / ϱ L p , β , + ( w ) C ( p , ϱ ) λ α b BMO ( R ) m f L p , β , + ( w ) .

5. Conclusions and Further Comments

It should be pointed out that our main results represent one-sided extensions of the main results in [19,28]. Combining with the two-sided case, the one-sided case is often more complex. Our main results not only enrich the variation inequalities for singular integrals and related commutators, but also explore some one-sided techniques to serve our aim (for example, see Lemma 1). In fact, it is unknown whether the variation operators for one-sided singular integrals are bounded on L p ( R ) , which will be our forthcoming objective of research. On the other hand, some new one-sided methods and techniques can be explored to apply other one-sided operators.
