Abstract

We consider singular integral operators of the form (a)Z 1L−1Z2, (b)Z 1Z2L−1, and (c)L −1Z1Z2, whereZ 1 andZ 2 are nonzero right-invariant vector fields, andL is theL 2-closure of a canonical Laplacian. The operators (a) are shown to be bounded onL p for allp∈(1, ∞) and of weak type (1, 1), whereas all of the operators in (b) and (c) are not of weak type (p, p) for anyp∈[1, ∞).
