Abstract
In 1985, Bloom characterized the boundedness of the commutator [b, H] as a map between a pair of weighted L p spaces, where both weights are in A p . The characterization is in terms of a novel BMO condition. We give a ‘modern’ proof of this result, in the case of p = 2. In a subsequent paper, this argument will be used to generalize Bloom’s result to all Calderón–Zygmund operators and dimensions.
