Matrix $A_p$-weights relative to a pseudo-metric

TL;DR
This work develops a comprehensive theory of matrix weights relative to anisotropic geometric settings defined by pseudo-metrics and one-parameter dilation groups. It proves that such matrix $A_p$-weights satisfy doubling and reverse Hölder properties and demonstrates an invariance under anisotropic affine transformations, enabling boundedness results for band-limited Fourier multipliers and sampling in matrix-weighted spaces. The paper then extends these analytic tools to construct and analyze anisotropic matrix-weighted Besov spaces, including discrete characterizations via tight frames and stability results, thereby providing a robust framework for anisotropic, matrix-weighted harmonic analysis with potential applications to related function spaces and operators. The approach unifies geometric, probabilistic, and analytic techniques to handle matrix-valued weights in non-Euclidean geometries, offering new invariance properties and practical discretization tools. These contributions advance the understanding of weighted norm inequalities in anisotropic contexts and facilitate applications to Besov-type spaces and related operator theory.
Abstract
Matrix weights satisfying a Muckenhoupt $A_p$-condition relative to a family of anisotropic balls in $\mathbb{R}^d$ defined by a pseudo-metric are studied. It is shown that such matrix weights satisfy a doubling condition and a reverse Hölder inequality. In the special case, where the pseudo-metric is homogeneous with respect to a one-parameter dilation group, the corresponding Muckenhoupt class is shows to satisfy an invariance property under composition with affine transformations generated by the dilation group. A general sampling theorem is derived for the matrix-weighted space $L^p(W)$ for Muckenhoupt $A_p$ weights $W$ along with a corresponding multiplier result for $L^p(W)$. An application of the results to the study of anisotropic matrix-weighed Besov spaces is considered.
