Title: The Nevo-Thangavelu spherical maximal function on two step nilpotent Lie groups.Consider R^d times R^m with the group structure of a 2-step Carnot Lie group and natural parabolic dilations. The maximal operator originally introduced by Nevo and Thangavelu in the setting of the Heisenberg groups is generated by (noncommutative) convolution associated with measures on […]
