On the boundedness of generalized Cesàro operators on Sobolev spaces

For $β>0$ and $p\ge 1$, the generalized Cesàro operator $\mathcal{C}_βf(t):=\fracβ{t^β}\int_0^t (t-s)^{β-1}f(s)ds$ and its companion operator $\mathcal{C}_β^*$ defined on Sobolev spaces $\mathcal{T}_p^{(α)}(t^α)$ and $\mathcal{T}_p^{(α)}(| t|^α)$ (where $α\ge 0$ is the fractional order of derivation and are embedded in $L^p(\RR^+)$ and $L^p(\RR)$ respectively) are studied. We prove that if $p>1$, then $\mathcal{C}_β$ and $\mathcal{C}_β^*$ are bounded operators and commute on $\mathcal{T}_p^{(α)}(t^α)$ and $\mathcal{T}_p^{(α)}(| t|^α)$. We show explicitly the spectra $σ(\mathcal{C}_β)$ and $σ(\mathcal{C}_β^*)$ and its operator norms (which depend on $p$). For $1< p\le 2$, we prove that $\hat{{\mathcal C}_β(f)}={\mathcal C}_β^*(\hat{f})$ and $\hat{{\mathcal C}_β^*(f)}={\mathcal C}_β(\hat{f})$ where $\hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform of a function $f\in L^p(\RR)$.
