Characterizations of the Hardy space $\mathcal{H}_{FIO}^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ for Fourier integral operators

Abstract: The Hardy spaces for Fourier integral operators $\mathcal{H}{FIO}^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, for $1\leq p\leq \infty$, were introduced by Smith in [Smith,1998] and Hassell et al. in [Hassell-Portal-Rozendaal,2020]. In this article, we give several equivalent characterizations of $\mathcal{H}{FIO}^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, for example in terms of Littlewood--Paley $g$ functions and maximal functions. This answers a question from [Rozendaal,2021]. We also give several applications of the characterizations.
