Maximal, Littlewood-Paley, Variation, and Oscillation Operators in the Rational Dunkl Setting

In this paper we study harmonic analysis operators in Dunkl settings associated with finite reflection groups on Euclidean spaces. We consider maximal operators, Littlewood-Paley functions, sigma-variation, and oscillation operators involving time derivatives of the heat semigroup generated by Dunkl operators. We establish the boundedness properties of these operators in L-p (R-d,omega K), 1 <= p < infinity, Hardy spaces, BMO, and BLO-type spaces in the Dunkl setting. The study of harmonic analysis operators associated to reflection groups need different strategies from the ones used in the Euclidean case since the integral kernels of the operators admit estimations involving two different metrics, namely, the Euclidean and the orbit metrics.
