The Variation of the Fractional Maximal Function of a Radial Function
Abstract In this article, we study the regularity of the non-centered fractional maximal operator $M_{\beta}$. As the main result, we prove that there exists $C(n,\beta)$ such that if $q=n/(n-\beta)$ and $f$ is radial function, then $\|DM_{\beta}f\|_{L^{q}({\mathbb{R}^n})}\leq C(n,\beta)\|Df\|_{L^{1}({\mathbb{R}^n})}$. The corresponding result was previously known only if $n=1$ or $\beta=0$. Our proofs …
