Streszczenie

We investigate the boundedness of the fractional maximal operator with respect to a general basis on weighted Lebesgue spaces. We characterize the boundedness of these operators for one-weight and two-weight inequalities extending the work of Jawerth. A new two-weight testing condition for the fractional maximal operator on a general basis is introduced extending the work of Sawyer for the basis of cubes. We also find the sharp dependence in the two-weight case between the operator norm and the testing condition of Sawyer. Finally, our approach leads to a new proof of Buckley's sharp estimate for the Hardy–Littlewood maximal function.
