Abstract
We obtain size estimates for the distribution function of the bilinear Hilbert transform acting on a pair of characteristic functions of sets of finite measure, that yield exponential decay at infinity and blowup near zero to the power -2/3 (modulo some logarithmic factors). These results yield all known L p bounds for the bilinear Hilbert transform and provide new restricted weak type endpoint estimates on L p1 × L p2 when either 1/p 1 + 1/p 2 = 3/2 or one of p 1, p 2 is equal to 1. As a consequence of this work we also obtain that the square root of the bilinear Hilbert transform of two characteristic functions is exponentially integrable over any compact set.
