Sharp function estimates and boundedness for commutators associated with general singular integral operator
Journal of Inequalities and Applications volume 2014, Article number: 108 (2014)
Abstract
In this paper, we establish the sharp maximal function estimates for the commutator associated with the singular integral operator with general kernel. As an application, we obtain the boundedness of the commutator on weighted Lebesgue, Morrey, and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces.

1 Introduction and preliminaries
As the development of singular integral operators (see [1–3]), their commutators have been well studied. In [4–6], the authors prove that the commutators generated by the singular integral operators and functions are bounded on for . Chanillo (see [7]) proves a similar result when singular integral operators are replaced by the fractional integral operators. In [8–10], the boundedness for the commutators generated by the singular integral operators and Lipschitz functions on Triebel-Lizorkin and () spaces are obtained. In [11, 12], the boundedness for the commutators generated by the singular integral operators and the weighted and Lipschitz functions on () spaces are obtained. In [13], some singular integral operators with general kernel are introduced, and the boundedness for the operators and their commutators generated by and Lipschitz functions are obtained (see [13, 14]). In this paper, we will study the commutators generated by the singular integral operators with general kernel and the weighted Lipschitz functions.
First, let us introduce some notation. Throughout this paper, Q will denote a cube of with sides parallel to the axes. For any locally integrable function f, the sharp maximal function of f is defined by

Let and . By [16], we know that spaces coincide and the norms are equivalent with respect to different values .
In this paper, we will study some singular integral operators as follows (see [13]).
Definition 1 Let be a linear operator such that T is bounded on and there exists a locally integrable function on such that
for every bounded and compactly supported function f, where K satisfies the following: there is a sequence of positive constant numbers such that for any ,
and
where and .
Let b be a locally integrable function on . The commutator related to T is defined by
Note that the classical Calderón-Zygmund singular integral operator satisfies Definition 1 with (see [4]).
Definition 2 Let φ be a positive, increasing function on and there exists a constant such that
Let w be a non-negative weight function on and f be a locally integrable function on . Set, for ,
where . The generalized weighted Morrey space is defined by
If , , then , which is the classical Morrey spaces (see [17, 18]). If , then , which is the weighted Lebesgue spaces (see [19]).
As the Morrey space may be considered as an extension of the Lebesgue space, it is natural and important to study the boundedness of the operator on the Morrey spaces (see [19–23]).
It is well known that commutators are of great interest in harmonic analysis and have been widely studied by many authors (see [5, 6]). In [6], Pérez and Trujillo-Gonzalez prove a sharp estimate for the multilinear commutator. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the sharp maximal inequalities for the commutator. As the application, we obtain the weighted -norm inequality, and Morrey and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces’ boundedness for the commutator.

3 Proofs of theorems
To prove the theorems, we need the following lemmas.

Lemma 8 Let , , , T be the singular integral operator as Definition 1 and be the weighted Morrey space as Definition 2. Then
