We develop both bilinear theory and commutator estimates in the context of entangled dilations, specifically Zygmund dilations (x1, x2, x3) → (δ1x1, δ2x2, δ1δ2x3) in R 3 . We construct bilinear versions of recent dyadic multiresolution methods for Zygmund dilations and apply them to prove a paraproduct free T 1 theorem for bilinear singular integrals invariant under Zygmund dilations. Independently, we prove linear commutator estimates even when the underlying singular integrals do not satisfy weighted estimates with Zygmund weights. This requires new paraproduct estimates.2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. 42B20.
