Non-commutative Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator on symmetric spaces of $$\tau $$-measurable operators

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator (in a sence of Bekjan ) on non-commutative symmetric spaces. We obtain an upper distributional estimate (by means of the Cesàro operator) of a generalized singular number of the non-commutative Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator. We also show boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator from a general non-commutative symmetric space to another.
