This is an announcement for the paper "Noncommutative Riesz transforms I-an algebraic approach" by Marius Junge.
Abstract: Riesz transforms on Rn or Riemanian manifolds are classical examples of singular integrals. In this paper we consider Riesz transforms associated to a semigroup Tt of completely positive trace preserving maps on a finite von Neumann algebra. Given a generator A of the semigroup we consider the square of the gradient Gamma(x,y)=A(x^*y)-A(x^*)y-x^*A(y) We prove un upper bound ||\Gamma(x,x)^{1/2}|_p \le c(p) || (-\Delta)^{1/2}x ||_p under suitable assumptions. These estimates generalizes commutative results by P.A. Meyer, Bakry, Emry, Gundy, Piser. Key tools are square function inequalities obtained in joint work with C. Le Merdy and Q. Xu and new algebraic relations. As an application we obtain new examples of quantum metric spaces for discrete groups with the Haagerup property and rapid decay.
