Abstract

We characterize the weights for the Stieltjes transform and the Calderón operator to be bounded on the weighted variable Lebesgue spaces \(L_w^{p(\cdot )}(0,\infty )\), assuming that the exponent function \({p(\cdot )}\) is log-Hölder continuous at the origin and at infinity. We obtain a single Muckenhoupt-type condition by means of a maximal operator defined with respect to the basis of intervals \(\{ (0,b) : b>0\}\) on \((0,\infty )\). Our results extend those in Duoandikoetxea et al. (Indiana Univ Math J 62(3):891–910, 2013) for the constant exponent \(L^p\) spaces with weights. We also give two applications: the first is a weighted version of Hilbert’s inequality on variable Lebesgue spaces, and the second generalizes the results in Soria and Weiss (Indiana Univ Math J 43(1):187–204, 1994) for integral operators to the variable exponent setting.
