Abstract
For each \(1\le q<p<\infty \) we study the sharp versions of the \(L^{p,\infty }\rightarrow L^q\) estimates for the dyadic maximal operator on \(\mathbb {R}^n\). Actually, this is done in the more general setting of maximal operators associated with a tree-like structure. The proof rests on a novel combination of the Bellman function technique and optimization arguments.
