Littlewood-Paley functions associated with general Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups

Abstract

In this paper we establish $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d,\gamma_\infty)$-boundedness properties for square functions involving time and spatial derivatives of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups. Here $\gamma_\infty$ denotes the invariant measure. In order to prove the strong type results for $1<p<\infty$ we use $R$-boundedness. The weak type (1,1) property is established by studying separately global and local operators defined for the square Littlewood-Paley functions. By the way we prove $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d,\gamma_\infty)$-boundedness properties for maximal and variation operators for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups.
