A. We develop a general framework for the analysis of operator-valued multilinear multipliers acting on Banach-valued functions.Our main result is a Coifman-Meyer type theorem for operator-valued multilinear multipliers acting on suitable tuples of UMD spaces.A concrete case of our theorem is a multilinear generalization of Weis's operator-valued H枚rmander-Mihlin linear multiplier theorem [51].Furthermore, we derive from our main result a wide range of mixed L p -norm estimates for multi-parameter multilinear paraproducts, leading to a novel mixed norm version of the partial fractional Leibniz rules of Muscalu et.al. [39].Our approach works just as well for the more singular tensor products of a one-parameter Coifman-Meyer multiplier with a bilinear Hilbert transform, extending results of Silva [46].We also prove several operator-valued T (1)-type theorems both in one parameter, and of multi-parameter, mixed-norm type.A distinguishing feature of our T (1) theorems is that the usual explicit assumptions on the distributional kernel of T are replaced with testing-type conditions.Our proofs rely on a newly developed Banach-valued version of the outer L p space theory of Do and Thiele [11].
