The theory of matrix $\\mathcal{A}_p$ weights has attracted considerable attention beginning with the work of Nazarov, Treil, and Volberg in the 1990s. We extend this theory by generalizing the matrix $\\mathcal{A}_p$ condition to the variable exponent setting. We prove boundedness of the convolution operator $\\mathbf{f}\\mapsto \\phi\\ast \\mathbf{F}$ for $\\phi \\in C_c^\\infty(\\Omega)$, and show that the approximate identity defined using $\\phi$ converges in matrix weighted, variable Lebesgue spaces $L^{p(\\cdot)}(W,\\Omega)$ for $W$ in matrix $\\mathcal{A}_{p(\\cdot)}$. Our approach to this problem is through averaging operators; these results are of interest in their own right. As an application of our work, we prove a version of the classical $H=W$ theorem for matrix weighted, variable exponent Sobolev spaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-08-07T21:17:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42B25", "42B35", "46E35" ], "keywords": [ "variable lebesgue spaces", "convolution operator", "variable exponent sobolev spaces", "approximate identity", "matrix weights" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
