Abstract:

Let \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) be orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms (shifts) of \(\mathbb{R}_+=(0,\infty)\) onto itself with the only fixed points \(0\) and \(\infty\), where the derivatives \(\alpha'\) and \(\beta'\) may have discontinuities of slowly oscillating type at \(0\) and \(\infty\). For \(p\in(1,\infty)\), we consider the weighted shift operators \(U_\alpha\) and \(U_\beta\) given on the Lebesgue space \(L^p(\mathbb{R}_+)\) by \(U_\alpha f=(\alpha')^{1/p}(f\circ\alpha)\) and \(U_\beta f= (\beta')^{1/p}(f\circ\beta)\). We apply the theory of Mellin pseudodifferential operators with symbols of limited smoothness to study the simplest singular integral operators with two shifts \(A_{ij}=U_\alpha^i P_++U_\beta^j P_-\) on the space \(L^p(\mathbb{R}_+)\), where \(P_\pm=(I\pm S)/2\) are operators associated to the Cauchy singular integral operator \(S\), and \(i,j\in\mathbb{Z}\). We prove that all \(A_{ij}\) are Fredholm operators on \(L^p(\mathbb{R}_+)\) and have zero indices.
