Abstract

In the Euclidean setting, the Fujii–Wilson-type \(A_\infty \) weights satisfy a reverse Hölder inequality (RHI), but in spaces of homogeneous type the best-known result has been that \(A_\infty \) weights satisfy only a weak reverse Hölder inequality. In this paper, we complement the results of Hytönen, Pérez and Rela and show that there exist both \(A_\infty \) weights that do not satisfy an RHI and a genuinely weaker weight class that still satisfies a weak RHI. We also show that all the weights that satisfy a weak RHI have a self-improving property, but the self-improving property of the strong reverse Hölder weights fails in a general space of homogeneous type. We prove most of these purely non-dyadic results using convenient dyadic systems and techniques.
