Abstract
We find necessary and sufficient conditions on a Banach spaceX in order for the vector-valued extensions of several operators associated to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup to be of weak type (1, 1) or strong type (p, p) in the range 1<p<∞. In this setting, we consider the Riesz transforms and the Littlewood-Paleyg-functions. We also deal with vector-valued extensions of some maximal operators like the maximal operators of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and the corresponding Poisson semigroups and the maximal function with respect to the gaussian measure.
In all cases, we show that the condition onX is the same as that required for the corresponding harmonic operator: UMD, Lusin cotype 2 and Hardy-Littlewood property. In doing so, we also find some new equivalences even for the harmonic case.
