Abstract
Let 0 < α< d and 1 ≤ p< d/ α. We present a proof that for all f∈ W1,p(Rd) both the centered and the uncentered Hardy–Littlewood fractional maximal operator M αf are weakly differentiable and ‖∇Mαf‖p∗≤Cd,α,p‖∇f‖p, where p∗=(p-1-α/d)-1. In particular it covers the endpoint case p= 1 for 0 < α< 1 where the bound was previously unknown. For p= 1 we can replace W1 , 1(Rd) by BV (Rd). The ingredients used are a pointwise estimate for the gradient of the fractional maximal function, the layer cake formula, a Vitali type argument, a reduction from balls to dyadic cubes, the coarea formula, a relative isoperimetric inequality and an earlier established result for α= 0 in the dyadic setting. We use that for α> 0 the fractional maximal function does not use certain small balls. For α= 0 the proof collapses.

I would like to thank my supervisor, Juha Kinnunen, for all of his support. I would like to thank Olli Saari for introducing me to this problem. I am also thankful for the discussions with Juha Kinnunen, Panu Lahti and Olli Saari who made me aware of a version of the coarea formula [, Theorem 3.11], which was used in the first draft of the proof, and for discussions with David Beltran, Cristian González-Riquelme and Jose Madrid, in particular about the centered fractional maximal operator.
