Failure of the matrix weighted bilinear Carleson embedding theorem

Abstract

We prove failure of the natural formulation of a matrix weighted bilinear Carleson embedding theorem, featuring a matrix valued Carleson sequence as well as products of norms for the embedding. We show that assuming an A 2 weight is also not sufficient. Indeed, a uniform bound on the conditioning number of the matrix weight is necessary and sufficient to get the bilinear embedding. We prove the optimal dependence of the embedding on this quantity. We show that any improvement of a recent matrix weighted bilinear embedding, featuring a scalar Carleson sequence and inner products instead of norms must fail. In particular, replacing the scalar sequence by a matrix sequence results in failure even when maintaining the formulation using inner products. Any formulation using norms, even in the presence of a scalar Carleson sequence must fail. As a positive result, we prove the so-called matrix weighted redundancy condition in full generality.
