Local Hardy Spaces of Differential Forms on Riemannian Manifolds

We define local Hardy spaces of differential forms $h^p_{\mathcal D}(\wedge T^*M)$ for all $p\in[1,\infty]$ that are adapted to a class of first order differential operators $\mathcal D$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with at most exponential volume growth. In particular, if $D$ is the Hodge--Dirac operator on $M$ and $Δ=D^2$ is the Hodge--Laplacian, then the local geometric Riesz transform ${D(Δ+aI)^{-{1}/{2}}}$ has a bounded extension to $h^p_D$ for all $p\in[1,\infty]$, provided that $a>0$ is large enough compared to the exponential growth of $M$. A characterisation of $h^1_{\mathcal D}$ in terms of local molecules is also obtained. These results can be viewed as the localisation of those for the Hardy spaces of differential forms $H^p_D(\wedge T^*M)$ introduced by Auscher, McIntosh and Russ.
