Boundedness of Fractional Integrals on Ball Campanato-Type Function Spaces

Abstract: Let $X$ be a ball quasi-Banach function space on ${\mathbb R}^n$ satisfying some mild assumptions and let $\alpha\in(0,n)$ and $\beta\in(1,\infty)$. In this article, when $\alpha\in(0,1)$, the authors first find a reasonable version $\widetilde{I}{\alpha}$ of the fractional integral $I{\alpha}$ on the ball Campanato-type function space $\mathcal{L}{X,q,s,d}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ with $q\in[1,\infty)$, $s\in\mathbb{Z}+^n$, and $d\in(0,\infty)$. Then the authors prove that $\widetilde{I}{\alpha}$ is bounded from $\mathcal{L}{X^{\beta},q,s,d}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to $\mathcal{L}{X,q,s,d}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ if and only if there exists a positive constant $C$ such that, for any ball $B\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $|B|^{\frac{\alpha}{n}}\leq C |\mathbf{1}_B|_X^{\frac{\beta-1}{\beta}}$, where $X^{\beta}$ denotes the $\beta$-convexification of $X$. Furthermore, the authors extend the range $\alpha\in(0,1)$ in $\widetilde{I}{\alpha}$ to the range $\alpha\in(0,n)$ and also obtain the corresponding boundedness in this case. Moreover, $\widetilde{I}{\alpha}$ is proved to be the adjoint operator of $I\alpha$. All these results have a wide range of applications. Particularly, even when they are applied, respectively, to Morrey spaces, mixed-norm Lebesgue spaces, local generalized Herz spaces, and mixed-norm Herz spaces, all the obtained results are new. The proofs of these results strongly depend on the dual theorem on $\mathcal{L}{X,q,s,d}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and also on the special atomic decomposition of molecules of $H_X(\mathbb{R}^n)$ (the Hardy-type space associated with $X$) which proves the predual space of $\mathcal{L}{X,q,s,d}(\mathbb{R}^n)$.
