Abstract

Let us consider the class of “nonvariational uniformly hypoelliptic operators”:

where: is a system of Hörmander vector fields in (), is a uniformly elliptic matrix, and the functions are continuous, with a suitable control on the modulus of continuity. We prove that:

for domains that are regular in a suitable sense. Moreover, the space in the above estimate can be replaced with a scale of spaces of the kind studied by Spanne. To get this estimate, several results are proved, regarding singular and fractional integrals on general spaces of homogeneous type, in relation with function spaces of type.
