In this paper, we mainly investigate the well-posedness of the four-order degenerate differential equation ($P_4$): $(Mu)''''(t) + \alpha (Lu)'''(t) + (Lu)''(t)$ $=\beta Au(t) + \gamma Bu'(t) + Gu'_t + Fu_t + f(t),\,( t\in [0,\,2\pi ])$ in periodic Lebesgue–Bochner spaces $L^p(\mathbb {T}; X)$ and periodic Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^s\;(\mathbb {T}; X)$, where $A$, $B$, $L$ and $M$ are closed linear operators on a Banach space $X$ such that $D(A)\cap D(B)\subset D(M)\cap D(L)$ and $\alpha,\,\beta,\,\gamma \in \mathbb {C}$, $G$ and $F$ are bounded linear operators from $L^p([-2\pi,\,0];X)$ (respectively $B_{p,q}^s([-2\pi,\,0];X)$) into $X$, $u_t(\cdot ) = u(t+\cdot )$ and $u'_t(\cdot ) = u'(t+\cdot )$ are defined on $[-2\pi,\,0]$ for $t\in [0,\, 2\pi ]$. We completely characterize the well-posedness of ($P_4$) in the above two function spaces by using known operator-valued Fourier multiplier theorems.

In this paper we study sharp localized ${{L}^{q}}\,\to \,{{L}^{p}}$ estimates for Fourier multipliers resulting from modulation of the jumps of Lévy processes. The proofs of these estimates rest on probabilistic methods and exploit related sharp bounds for differentially subordinated martingales, which are of independent interest. The lower bounds for the constants involve the analysis of laminates, a family of certain special probability measures on 2×2 matrices. As an application, we obtain new sharp bounds for the real and imaginary parts of the Beurling–Ahlfors operator.

We inspect the relationship between relative Fourier multipliers on noncommutative Lebesgue–Orlicz spaces of a discrete group $\Gamma$ and relative Toeplitz-Schur multipliers on Schatten–von-Neumann–Orlicz classes. Four applications are given: lacunary sets, unconditional Schauder bases for the subspace of a Lebesgue space determined by a given spectrum $\Lambda \,\subseteq \,\Gamma$, the norm of the Hilbert transformand the Riesz projection on Schatten–von-Neumann classes with exponent a power of 2, and the norm of Toeplitz Schur multipliers on Schatten–von-Neumann classes with exponent less than 1.

Maximal regularity for an integro-differential equation with infinite delay on periodic vector-valued Besov spaces is studied. We use Fourier multipliers techniques to characterize periodic solutions solely in terms of spectral properties on the data. We study a resonance case obtaining a compatibility condition which is necessary and sufficient for the existence of periodic solutions.
