Abstract
In this paper, we introduce thep-adic Hardy type operator and obtain its sharp bound on thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces. Meanwhile, an analogous result is computed for thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces with power weights. In addition, we
characterize a sufficient and necessary condition which ensures that the weighted p-adic Hardy type operator is bounded on thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces. Furthermore, thep-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro operator is also obtained.

1 Introduction
p-adic numbers were introduced by Hensel at the end of the th century, they constitute an integral part of number theory, algebraic geometry, representation theory and other branches of modern mathematics (see [, ]). However, the geometry of the spaceQpis surprisingly unlike the geometry of the spaceR, in particular the Archimedean axiom is not true inQp. Therefore the field ofp-adic numbers has natural hierarchical structures, we refer the reader to [–]. In recent years, theories of functions and operators fromQn p intoRorCplay an important role in thep-adic quantum mechanics, inp-adic analysis. Studies of thep-adic Hardy operators have drawn more and more attention (for example, see [–]).
For a prime numberp, letQp be the field ofp-adic numbers. It is defined as the com-pletion of the field of rational numbersQpwith respect to the non-Archimedeanp-adic norm| · |p. This norm is defined as follows:||p= ; if any non-zero rational numberxis represented asx=pγm
n, whereγ is an integer and the integersm,nare indivisible byp, then|x|p=p–γ. It is easy to see that the norm satisfies the following properties:
(i) |x|p≥,∀x∈Qp,|x|p= ⇐⇒x= ; (ii) |xy|p=|x|p|y|p,∀x,y∈Qp;
(iii) |x+y|p≤max{|x|p,|y|p},∀x,y∈Qp, and when|x|p=|y|p, we have
|x+y|p=max{|x|p,|y|p}.
It is well known thatQpis a typical model of non-Archimedean local fields. From the standardp-adic analysis, we know that any non-zero elementxofQp can be uniquely
represented in the canonical series
x=pγ
∞
j=
ajpj, γ=γ(x)∈Z,
where aj are integrals, ≤aj≤p– ,a= . The series converges in the p-adic norm
because|ajpj|p=p–j. LetZp={x∈Qp:|x|p≤}be the class of allp-adic integrals inQp and denoteZ∗p=Zp\{}.
The spaceQn
pdenotes a vector space overQpwhich consists of all pointsx= (x,x, . . . , xn), wherexi∈Qp,i= , , . . . ,n. Thep-adic norm onQnpis
|x|p:=max
≤i≤n
|xi|p
, x∈Qnp.
Denote byBγ(a) ={x∈Qnp:|x–a|p≤pγ}, the ball with center ata∈Qnpand radiuspγ, and bySγ(a) ={x∈Qnp:|x–a|p=pγ} the sphere with center ata∈Qnp and radiuspγ,
γ ∈Z. It is clear thatSγ(a) =Bγ(a)\Bγ–(a), and we setBγ() =Bγ andSγ() =Sγ.
SinceQn
p is a locally compact commutative group with respect to addition, it follows from the standard analysis that there exists a Harr measuredxonQn
p, which is unique up to a positive constant factor and is translation invariant. We normalize the measuredx
such that
B()
dx=B()H= ,
where|B|Hdenotes the Harr measure of a measure subset B ofQnp. By simple calculation, we obtain|Bγ(a)|=pγn,|Sγ(a)|=pγn( –p–n).
The most fundamental averaging operator is Hardy operator defined by
Hf(x) :=
x
x
f(t)dt,
where the functionf is a nonnegative integrable function onR+andx> . A celebrated
integral inequality, due to Hardy [], states that
HfLq(R+)≤ q
q– fLq(R+)
holds for <q<∞, and the constant qq–is the best.
For the multidimensional casen≥, generally speaking, there exist two different defi-nitions. One is the rectangle averaging operator defined by
H(f)(x) :=
x· · ·xm
x
· · ·
xm
f(t, . . . ,tm)dtm· · ·dt,
The other definition is then-dimensional spherical averaging operator, which was in-troduced by Christ and Grafakos in [] as follows:
Hf(x) :=
n|x|n
|t|≤|x|f(t)dt, x∈R n\ {},
wherenis the volume of the unit ball inRn. The norm ofHonLq(Rn) was evaluated and found to be equal to that of the one-dimensional averaging operator.HLq→Lq, that is to say, does not depend on the dimension of the space.
In , Fuet al.[] defined the followingn-dimensionalp-adic Hardy operator:
Hpf(x) :=
|B(,|x|p)|H
|t|p≤|x|p
f(t)dt, x∈Qnp\ {},
wheref is a nonnegative measurable function onQnp,B(,|x|p) is a ball inQnpwith center at ∈Qn
pand radius|x|p, and they proved the sharp estimates of thep-adic Hardy operator on Lebesgue spaces with power weights.
In , Luet al.[] gave the definition of Hardy operator on higher-dimensional prod-uct spaces as follows:
Hm(f)(x) :=
m
i=
|B(,|xi|)|
|y|<|x| · · ·
|ym|<|xm|
f(y, . . . ,ym)dym· · ·dy,
wheref is a nonnegative measurable function onRn×Rn× · · · ×Rnm,m∈N,n i∈N,
x= (x,x, . . . ,xm)∈Rn×Rn × · · · ×Rnm,xi∈Rniand
m
i=|xi| = . Furthermore, the corresponding operator norm on the Lebesgue product spaces with power weights was worked out.
Next, we will introduce the definition of Hardy type operator on the higher-dimensional
p-adic product spaces as follows and discuss the boundedness and best bound on the prod-uct ofp-adic Lebesgue spaces.
Definition . Letm∈N,ni∈N,xi∈Qnpi,i= , . . . ,m, andfbe a nonnegative measurable function onQn
p ×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm. Thep-adic Hardy type operator is defined by
Hp m(f)(x) =

|ym|p<|xm|p
f(y, . . . ,ym)dym· · ·dy,
wherex= (x,x, . . . ,xm)∈Qpn×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpmwith
m
i=|xi|p= .
In , Carton-Lebrun and Fosset [] defined the weighted Hardy operatorHψby
Hψ(f)(x) =
f(tx)ψ(t)dt, x∈Rn,
where ψ : [, ]→[,∞) is a function, and they showed the boundedness of Hψ on
Lebesgue spaces andBMO(Rn) spaces. Evidently the operatorH
ψdeeply depends on the
nonnegative functionψ. For Example, whenn= andψ(x) = forx∈[, ], the operator
In , Rim and Lee [] defined the weightedp-adic Hardy operatorHpψby
Hp
ψ(f)(x) =
Z∗
p
f(tx)ψ(t)dt, x∈Qnp,
whereψ is a nonnegative function defined onZ∗p, and they gave the characterization of the functionψ for whichHpψ is bounded onLq(Qn
p), ≤q≤ ∞, they also got the cor-responding operator norm. Obviously, ifn= andψ(x) = , thenHpψ just reduces to the
p-adic Hardy operatorHponQp, which is defined by
Hpf(x) :=
|x|p
|t|p≤|x|p
f(t)dt, x= .
In , Fuet al.[] introduced the definition of weighted Hardy operator on higher-dimensional product spaces as follows:
Hm
ϕ(f)(x) =
· · ·
f(tx, . . . ,tmxm)ϕ(t, . . . ,tm)dt· · ·dtm,
where the nonnegative functionψdefined on [, ]×[, ]× · · · ×[, ]. They obtained a sufficient and necessary condition which ensures that the operatorHm
ϕ is bounded on the
Lebesgue product spaces.
Next, we will extend the operatorHm
ϕ to the higher-dimensionalp-adic product spaces.
Definition . Letm∈N,ni∈N,xi∈Qnpi,i= , . . . ,m, andf be a nonnegative measurable function onQn
p ×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm. Thep-adic weighted Hardy type operator is defined by
Hp
ϕ,m(f)(x) =

whereϕis a nonnegative measurable function onZ∗p×Z∗p× · · · ×Z∗p, andx= (x,x, . . . , xm)∈Qnp×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm.
It follows from the Fubini theorem that we can easily formulate the dual operator of
Hp
ϕ,mand denote it byHpϕ,,∗m.
Definition . Letm∈N,ni∈N,xi∈Qnpi,i= , . . . ,m, andf be a nonnegative measurable function onQn

whereϕis a nonnegative measurable function onZ∗p×Z∗p× · · · ×Z∗p, andx= (x,x, . . . , xm)∈Qnp×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm.
Letψ : [, ]→[,∞),s: [, ]→Rbe measurable functions. The weighted Hardy-Cesàro operatorHs
ϕ, associated to parameter curves(x,t) =s(t)x, is defined by
Hs
ϕ(f) =
fs(t)xϕ(t)dt,
for all measurable functionsf onRn.
In , Hung [] considered the form of Hardy-Cesàro operator inp-adic analysis
Hp,s
ϕ f(x) :=

fs(t)xϕ(t)dt,
wheres:Z∗p→Qpandψ:Z∗p→[,∞) are measurable functions. The author investigated the boundedness of thep-adic analog of the weighted Hardy-Cesàro operator on weighted Lebesgue spaces and weighted BMO spaces. In each case, the corresponding operator norms are obtained. In , Chuonget al.[] considered the boundedness of thep-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro operators and their commutators on weighted functional spaces of Morrey type, and the corresponding operator norms are also computed.
Motivated by these famous results, first we will give a higher-dimensional version of the
p-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro operator.
Definition . Letm∈N,ni∈N,xi∈Qnpi,i= , . . . ,m, andf be a nonnegative measurable function onQn
p ×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm. Thep-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro type operator is defined by

x= (x,x, . . . ,xm)∈Qpn×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm.
The paper is organized as follows. Section is devoted to the sharp estimates ofHpmon thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces with power weights. In Section , we present neces-sary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of the weighted Hardy type operator and its dual operator. Furthermore, thep-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro type operator also has the corresponding conclusion. In Section , we state explicitly the main conclusions of the research.

Whenαi= , the sharp estimate of thep-adic Hardy type operator will be easy to get on thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces, so we only provide the proof of Theorem ..

gf(x,x) =

( –p–n)
|ξ|p=
|ξ|p=
f|x|–p ξ,|x|–p ξ
dξdξ.
It is clear thatgf(x,x) =gf(|x|–p ,|x|–p ), in the following we briefly call this function a radial function on thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces with power weights. We have

This implies the claim that iff is a radial function, then we havegf =f. This means that the norm of the operatorHpis equal to the norm that makesHp restricted to the set of radial functions. Consequently, without loss of generality, it suffices to fulfil the proof of the theorem by assumingf is a radial function.
Substituting the variableyi=|xi|–p zi,i= , , we see thatH p

Remark . Using methods similar to Theorem ., we can easily see the proof of The-orem .. So we omit the details of the proof. In particular, ifϕ= , we know that the operatorHpϕ,mis not bounded onL(Qpn×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm). In the same way, whenϕ= , we can also deduce thatHpϕ,,∗mis not bounded onL∞(Qpn×Qnp× · · · ×Qnpm).
We note that in [], the authors proved the sharp bounds of a weighted multilinear Hardy-Cesàro operator on the product of Lebesgue spaces and central Morrey spaces. They also proved sufficient and necessary conditions of the weight functions so that the commutators of weighted multilinear Hardy-Cesàro operator with symbols in central BMO spaces.
Inspired by the paper, we will consider sufficient and necessary conditions of the weighted Hardy-Cesàro type operatorHϕp,,smon thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces.

4 Conclusions
In the present study, we introduced a class ofp-adic Hardy type operator and considered the problem of finding a bound for the norm of it fromp-adic Lebesgue product spaces with power weights to itself. Moreover, we characterized a sufficient and necessary condi-tion which ensures that the weightedp-adic Hardy type operator is bounded on thep-adic Lebesgue product spaces. In addition, we also extended the results to thep-adic weighted Hardy-Cesàro operator.
