An alternative interpretation of a family of weighted Carleson measures is used to characterizep-Carleson measures for a class of Hardy-Orlicz spaces admitting a nice weak factorization. Asan application, we provide with a characterization of symbols of bounded weighted compositionoperators and Cesaro-type integral operators from these Hardy-Orlicz spaces to some classicalholomorphic function spaces.
1. Introduction
Hardy-Orlicz spaces are the generalization of the usual Hardy spaces. We raise the questionof characterizing those positive measures μ defined on the unit ball � n of � n such that thesespaces embed continuously into the Lebesgue spaces Lp(dμ). More precisely, let denote bydV the Lebesgue measure on � n and dσ the normalized measure on the unit sphere �n
which is the boundary of � n . H(�n ) denotes the space of holomorphic functions on � n . LetΦ be continuous and nondecreasing function from [0,∞) onto itself. That is, Φ is a growthfunction. The Hardy-Orlicz space HΦ(� n) is the space of function f in H(� n) such that thefunctions fr , defined by fr(w) = f(rw) satisfy

{λ > 0 :
∫�n
Φ
(∣∣fr(x)∣∣λ
)dσ(x) ≤ 1
}< ∞. (1.1)

We denote the quantity on the left of the above inequality by ‖f‖luxHΦ or simply ‖f‖HΦ
when there is no ambiguity. Let us remark that ‖f‖luxHΦ = supr<1‖fr‖luxLΦ , where ‖f‖luxLΦ denotes
the Luxembourg (quasi)-norm defined by
∥∥f∥∥luxLΦ := inf
{λ > 0 :
∫�n
Φ
(∣∣fr(x)∣∣λ
)dσ(x) ≤ 1
}< ∞. (1.2)
Given two growth functionsΦ1 andΦ2, we consider the following question. For whichpositive measures μ on � n , the embedding map Iμ : HΦ2(� n) → LΦ1(dμ), is continuous?When Φ1 and Φ2 are power functions, such a question has been considered and completelyanswered in the unit disc and the unit ball in [1–6]. For more general convex growthfunctions, an attempt to solve the question appears in [7], in the setting of the unit discwhere the authors provided with a necessary condition which is not always sufficient anda sufficient condition. The unit ball version of [7] is given in [8]. To be clear at this stage, letus first introduce some usual notations. For any ξ ∈ �n and δ > 0, let
Bδ(ξ) = {w ∈ �n : |1 − 〈w, ξ〉| < δ},
Qδ(ξ) = {z ∈ �n : |1 − 〈z, ξ〉| < δ}.
(1.3)
These are the higher dimension analogues of Carleson regions. We take as Φ1 thepower functions, that is, Φ1(t) = tp for 1 ≤ p < ∞. Thus, the question is now to characterizethose positive measures μ on the unit ball such that there exists a constant C > 0 such that
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ C(∥∥f∥∥luxHΦ
)p ∀f ∈ HΦ(� n ). (1.4)
We call such measures p-Carleson measures for HΦ(� n). We give a complete answer for aspecial class of Hardy-Orlicz spaces HΦ(� n) with Φ(t) = (t/ log(e + t))s, 0 < s ≤ 1. Forsimplicity, we denote this space by Hs(� n ).
We prove the following result.
Theorem 1.1. Let 0 < s ≤ 1 and 1 ≤ p < ∞. Then the following assertions are equivalent.
(i) There exists a constant K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and δ > 0,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1δn(p/s)(
log(4/δ))p . (1.5)
(i) There exists a constant K2 > 0 such that
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K2∥∥f∥∥pHs
∀f ∈ Hs(� n ). (1.6)
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences 3
To prove the above result, we combine weak-factorization results for Hardy-Orliczspaces (see [9, 10]) and some equivalent characterizations of weighted Carleson measuresfor which we provide an alternative interpretation. We also provide with some furtherapplications of our characterization of the measures considered here to the boundedness ofweighted Cesaro-type integral operators from our Hardy-Orlicz spaces to some holomorphicfunction spaces in Section 3.
All over the text, C, Cj and,Kj , j = 1, . . ., will denote positive constant not necessarilythe same at each occurrence.
This work can be also considered as an application of some recent results obtained bythe author and his collaborators [9–11].
2. λ-Hardy p-logarithmic Carleson Measures
For z = (z1, . . . , zn) and w = (w1, . . . , wn) in � n , we let 〈z,w〉 = z1w1 + · · · + znwn so that|z|2 = 〈z, z〉 = |z1|2 + · · · + |zn|2.
Recall that when Φ is a power function, the Hardy-Orlicz space HΦ(� n) is just theclassical Hardy space. More precisely, for 0 < p < ∞, let Hp(� n ) denote the Hardy spacewhich is the space of all f ∈ H(� n ) such that
∥∥f∥∥pp := sup0<r<1
∫�n
∣∣f(rξ)∣∣pdσ(ξ) < ∞. (2.1)
We denote by H∞(� n ), the space of bounded analytic functions in � n .Let ρ be a continuous increasing function from [0,∞) onto itself, and such that for
some α on [0, 1]
�(st) ≤ sα�(t) (2.2)
for s > 1, with st ≤ 1. We define the space BMO(ρ) by
BMO(ρ)=
{f ∈ L2(�n); sup
B
infR∈PN(B)
1(�(σ(B))
)2σ(B)
∫B
∣∣f − R∣∣2dσ < ∞
}, (2.3)
where for B = Bδ(ξ0), the spacePN(B) is the space of polynomials of order ≤ N in the (2n−1)last coordinates related to an orthonormal basis whose first element is ξ0 and second element�ξ0. The integerN is taken larger than 2nα−1. For C, the quantity appearing in the definitionof BMO(ρ), we note ‖f‖BMO(ρ) := ‖f‖2 + C. The space BMOA(ρ) is then the space of functionf ∈ H2(� n ) such that
supr<1
∥∥fr∥∥BMO(ρ) < ∞. (2.4)
Clearly, BMOA(ρ) coincides with the space of holomorphic functions in H2(� n) such thattheir boundary values lie in BMO(ρ). The space BMOA(1) is the usual space of function withbounded mean oscillation BMOAwhile the space of function of logarithmic mean oscillationLMOA is given by 1/ρ(t) = log 4/t.

Let μ denote a positive Borel measure on � n . The measure μ is called an s-Carlesonmeasure, if there is a finite constant C > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and any 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ C(σ(Bδ(ξ)))s. (2.5)
When s = 1, μ is just called Carleson measure. The infinimum of all these constants C will bedenoted ‖μ‖s. We use the notation ‖μ‖ for ‖μ‖1. In this section, we are interested in Carlesonmeasure with weights involving the logarithmic function. Let μ be a positive Borel measureon �
n and 0 < s < ∞. For ρ, a positive function defined on (0, 1), we say μ is a (ρ, s)-Carlesonmeasure if there is a constant C > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ C(σ(Bδ(ξ)))s
ρ(δ). (2.6)
If s = 1, μ is called a ρ-Carleson measure.We will restrict here to the case ρ(t) = (log(4/t))p(loglog(e4/t))q, 0 < p, q < ∞ studied
by the author in [11] (see also [12] for a special case in one dimension). But here we gobeyond the interpretation provided in [11].
2.1. λ-Hardy ρ-Carleson Measures
In this section, we recall some results of [11] and the notion of λ-Hardy Carleson measures.We then provide with an alternative interpretation of the results of [11] that will be useful toour characterization. From now on, the notation K1 ≈ K2, where K1 and K2 are two positiveconstants, will mean there exists an absolute positive constantM such that
M−1K2 ≤ K1 ≤ MK2, (2.7)
and in this case, we say K1 and K2 are comparable or equivalent. The notation K1 � K2
means K1 ≤ MK2 for some absolute positive constant M. Let set
Ka(z) =
(1 − |a|2
)n|1 − 〈a, z〉|2n
. (2.8)
We first recall the following higher dimension version of the theorem of Carleson [1]and its reproducing kernel formulation.
Theorem 2.1. For a positive Borel measure μ on � n , and 0 < p < ∞, the following are equivalent
(i) The measure μ is a Carleson measure.
(ii) There is a constantK1 > 0 such that, for all f ∈ Hp(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K1∥∥f∥∥pp. (2.9)
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences 5
(iii) There is a constantK2 > 0 such that, for all a ∈ � n ,
∫� n
Ka(w)dμ(w) ≤ K2 < ∞. (2.10)
We note that the constants K1, K2 in Theorem 2.1 are both comparable to ‖μ‖. Theproof of this theorem can be found in [13].
We now recall some basic facts about λ-Hardy measures.
Definition 2.2. Let 0 < p, q < ∞ and λ = q/p. We say a positive measure μ on �n is a λ-Hardy
Carleson measure if there exists a constant C > 0 such that for all f ∈ Hp(� n ),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ C∥∥f∥∥qHp . (2.11)
The following high dimension Peter Duren’s characterization of λ-Hardy Carlesonmeasures is useful for our purpose.
Proposition 2.3. Let 0 < p, q < ∞ and λ = q/p > 1. Let μ be a positive measure on � n . Then thefollowing assertions are equivalent.
(i) There exists a constant K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and any 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1(σ(Bδ(ξ)))λ. (2.12)
(ii) There exists a constant K2 > 0 such that
supa∈� n
∫� n
Kλa(z)dμ(z) < K2 < ∞. (2.13)
(iii) There exists a constant K3 > 0 such that for all f ∈ Hp(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ K3∥∥f∥∥qHp . (2.14)
The constants K1, K2, and K3 in the above proposition are equivalent. That (i) ⇔ (ii)can be found in [11]. The equivalence (i) ⇔ (iii) can be found in [14] for example. We havethe following elementary consequence.
Corollary 2.4. Let 0 ≤ p, q < ∞, p /= 0 and let μ be a positive measure on � n . Then the followingassertion are equivalent.
(i) There exists a constant K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and any 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1(σ(Bδ(ξ)))1+(q/p). (2.15)
6 International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences
(ii) There exists a constant K2 > 0 such that
supa∈� n
∫� n
K1+(q/p)a (z)dμ(z) ≤ K2 < ∞. (2.16)
(iii) There exists a constant K3 > 0 such that for all f ∈ Hp(� n),
supa∈� n
∫� n
Ka(z)∣∣f(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ K3‖f‖qHp . (2.17)
(iv) There exists a constant K4 > 0 such that for all f ∈ Hp(� n) and any g ∈ Hr(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣q∣∣g(z)∣∣rdμ(z) ≤ K4∥∥f∥∥qHp
∥∥g∥∥rHr . (2.18)
Proof. The equivalence (i)⇔(ii) is a special case of Proposition 2.3. Note that (iii) is equivalentin saying that for any f ∈ Hp(� n), the measure (|f(z)|qdμ(z))/‖f‖qHp is a Carleson measurewhich is equivalent to (iv). The implication (iv)⇒(i) follows from the usual arguments. Thus,it only remains to prove that (ii)⇒(iii). First by Proposition 2.3, (ii) is equivalent in saying thatthere exists a constant K′
2 > 0 such that for any f ∈ Hp(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣p+qdμ(z) ≤ K′2
∥∥f∥∥p+qHp . (2.19)
It follows from the hypotheses, the latter, and Holder’s inequality that
∫� n
Ka(z)∣∣f(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ (∫
� n
Ka(z)1+(q/p)dμ(z))p/(p+q)(∫
� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣p+qdμ(z))q/(p+q)
,
≤ K2K′2
∥∥f∥∥qHp .
(2.20)
Thus (ii)⇒(iii). The proof is complete.
Next, we recall the following result proved in [11].
Theorem 2.5. Let 0 ≤ p, q < ∞, s ≥ 1, and let μ be a positive Borel measure on �n . Then the
following conditions are equivalent.
(i) There is K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1(σ(Bδ(ξ)))s(
log(4/δ))p(loglog(e4/δ))q . (2.21)

Ka(z)sdμ(z) ≤ K2 < ∞. (2.22)

Ka(z)s∣∣g(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ K
∥∥g∥∥qLMOA. (2.24)

Ka(z)s∣∣f(z)∣∣p∣∣g(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ K5
∥∥f∥∥pBMOA
∥∥∥∥qLMOA. (2.25)
Definition 2.6. Let 0 < p, q < ∞ and λ = q/p. Let ρ be a positive function defined on [0,∞).We say a positive measure μ on � n is a λ-Hardy ρ-Carleson measure if for any f ∈ Hp(� n ),the measure
dμ(z) =
∣∣f(z)∣∣q∥∥f∥∥qp dμ(z) (2.26)
is a ρ-Carleson measure.
We have the following characterization of λ-Hardy ρ-Carleson measure which is infact an alternative interpretation of Theorem 2.5.
Theorem 2.7. Let 0 ≤ p, q, r, s < ∞, s /= 0, and let μ be a positive Borel measure on � n . Then thefollowing conditions are equivalent.
(i) There is K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1(σ(Bδ(ξ)))1+(r/s)(
log(4/δ))p(loglog(e4/δ))q . (2.27)

(iv) There is K4 > 0 such that for any f ∈ BMO, any g ∈ LMOA, and any h ∈ Hs(� n),

Ka(z)|h(z)|r∣∣f(z)∣∣p∣∣g(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ K3‖h‖rHs
∥∥f∥∥pBMOA
∥∥g∥∥qLMOA. (2.30)
(v) There is K5 > 0 such that for any f ∈ BMOA, g ∈ LMOA, and any h ∈ Hs(� n) andl ∈ Hm(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣p∣∣g(z)∣∣q|h(z)|r |l(z)|mdμ(z) ≤ K5‖h‖rHs‖l‖mHm
∥∥f∥∥pBMOA
∥∥g∥∥qLMOA. (2.31)
Proof. (i)⇔(iv): we first observe with Theorem 2.5 that (i) is equivalent in saying that there isa constant C1 such that for any f ∈ BMOA and any g ∈ LMOA,
supa∈� n
∫� n
Ka(z)1+(r/s)∣∣f(z)∣∣p∣∣g(z)∣∣qdμ(z) ≤ C1
∥∥f∥∥pBMOA
∥∥g∥∥qLMOA. (2.32)
By Corollary 2.4, the latter is equivalent to (iv).(ii)⇔(iii)⇔(iv): by rewriting (ii) as

)q ∫� n
Ka(z)∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K2‖h‖rHs
∥∥f∥∥pBMOA, (2.33)
where dμ(z) = (|h(z)|r/‖h‖rHs)dμ(z), it follows directly from Theorem 2.5 that (ii)⇔(iii)⇔(iv).
That (iv)⇔(v) is a consequence of Theorem 2.1. The proof is complete.
2.2. p-Carleson Measures for Hardy-Orlicz Spaces
In this section, we characterize p-Carlesonmeasures of some special Hardy-Orlicz spaces. Forthis, we will need a weak factorization result of functions in these spaces which follows fromthe one in [10].
Proposition 2.8. Let 0 < s ≤ 1. Let Hs(� n) denote the Hardy-Orlicz space corresponding to thefunction Φ(t) = (t/ log(e + t))s. Then the following assertions hold.
(i) The product of two functions, one in Hs(� n) and the other one in BMOA, is in Hs(� n ).Moreover,
‖fg‖Hs � ‖f‖Hs‖g‖BMOA. (2.34)
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences 9
(ii) Any function f in the unit ball of Hs(� n ) admits the following representation (weak fac-torization):
f =∑j
fjgj, fj ∈ Hs(� n ), gj ∈ BMOA (2.35)
with
∞∑j=0
∥∥fj∥∥Hs
∥∥gj∥∥BMOA�∥∥f∥∥Hs
. (2.36)
Let us remark that the space H1(� n) is the predual of LMOA. The following theoremgives a characterization of p-Carleson measures of the Hardy-Orlicz spaces consideredhere.
Theorem 2.9. Let 0 < s ≤ 1, 1 ≤ p < ∞. Let Hs(� n) be the Hardy-Orlicz space HΦ(� n )corresponding to the function Φ(t) = (t/ log(e + t))s. Then, for μ a positive measure on � n , thefollowing assertions are equivalent.
(i) There exists a constant K1 > 0 such that for any ξ ∈ �n and any 0 < δ < 1,
μ(Qδ(ξ)) ≤ K1(σ(Bδ(ξ)))(p/s)(
log(4/δ))p . (2.37)
(ii) There exists a constant K2 > 0 such that for any f ∈ Hs(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K2∥∥f∥∥pHs
. (2.38)
Proof. We remark that if (2.38) holds in the unit ball of Hs(� n ), then it holds for all f ∈Hs(� n). Recall that by Proposition 2.8, every function f in the unit ball of Hs(� n) weaklyfactorizes as
f =∞∑j=0
fjgj (2.39)
and∑∞
j=0 ‖fj‖Hs‖gj‖BMOA � ‖f‖Hs . It follows using the equivalent assertion (iv) ofTheorem 2.7 that
(∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣pdμ(z))1/p
=

(2.40)
Now we prove that (ii)⇒(i). That (ii) holds implies in particular that for any f ∈ Hs(� n) andany g ∈ BMOA,
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣p∣∣g(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K2∥∥f∥∥pHs
∥∥g∥∥pBMOA. (2.41)
We observe with Corollary 2.4 that (2.41) is equivalent in saying that for any g ∈ BMOA, themeasure
dμ(z) =
∣∣g(z)∣∣p∥∥g∥∥pBMOA
dμ(z) (2.42)
is a (p/s)-Carleson measure or equivalently,
supa∈� n
∫� n
Ka(z)(p/s)∣∣g(z)∣∣pdμ(z) ≤ K3
∥∥g∥∥pBMOA. (2.43)
By Theorem 2.5, the latter is equivalent to
supa∈� n
(log
41 − |a|
)p ∫� n
Ka(z)(p/s)dμ(z) ≤ K4, (2.44)
which is equivalent to (i). The proof is complete.
3. Some Applications
We provide in this section with some applications of p-Carleson measures of the aboveHardy-Orlicz spaces to the boundedness of multiplication operators, composition operators,and Cesaro integral-type operators. Let us first introduce the generalized Bergman spaces inthe unit ball. We recall that for f ∈ H(� n), its radial derivativeRf is the holomorphic functiondefined by
Rf(z) =n∑j=1
zj∂f
∂zj(z). (3.1)
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences 11
Let α ∈ �, 1 ≤ p < ∞ with α + p > −1. The generalized Bergman space Apα(� n ) consists of
holomorphic function f such that
∥∥f∥∥pp,α :=∫� n
∣∣Rf(z)∣∣p(1 − |z|2)α+p
dV (z) < ∞. (3.2)
Clearly,Apα(� n ) is a Banach under
∥∥f∥∥pp,α :=∣∣f(0)∣∣ + ∫
� n
∣∣Rf(z)∣∣p(1 − |z|2)α+p
dV (z) < ∞. (3.3)
These spaces have been studied in [15]. When α > −1, the space Apα(� n ) corresponds to the
usual weighted Bergman space which consists of holomorphic function f in � n such that
∥∥f∥∥pp,α :=∫�n
∣∣f(z)∣∣p(1 − |z|2)α
dV (z) < ∞. (3.4)
For α = −1 and p = 2, the corresponding space is just the Hardy spaceH2(� n ).Let u be a holomorphic function in � n . We denote by Mu the multiplication operator
by u defined on H(�n ) by
Mu
(f)(z) = u(z)f(z), f ∈ H(� n ). (3.5)
We recall that if ϕ is a holomorphic self map of � n , then the composition operatorCϕ is definedon H(� n) by
Cϕ
(f):= f ◦ ϕ. (3.6)
For u a holomorphic function in � n , the weighted composition operator uCϕ is thecomposition operator followed by the multiplication by u. That is,
uCϕ
(f)= Mu
(f ◦ ϕ) = u
(f ◦ ϕ). (3.7)
For b a holomorphic function in �n , the Cesaro-type integral operator Tb is defined by
Tb(f)(z) =
∫1
0f(tz)Rg(tz)
dt
t, g, f ∈ H(� n). (3.8)
Combining this operator with the weighted composition operator, we obtain a more generaloperator Tu,ϕ,b = Tb(Mu(f ◦ ϕ)) = Tb(u(f ◦ ϕ)) given by
Tu,ϕ,b(f)(z) =
∫1
0u(tz)
(f ◦ ϕ)(tz)Rg(tz)dt
t, f ∈ H(� n ). (3.9)
12 International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences
When ϕ(z) = z for all z ∈ � n , we write Tu,ϕ,b = Tu,b. The multiplication operator, the composi-tion operator, the Cesaro-type integral, and their products have been intensively studied bymany authors on various holomorphic function spaces. We refer to the following and thereferences therein [11, 12, 16–30]. As an application of the characterization of p-Carlesonmeasures for the Hardy-Orlicz spaces of the previous section, we consider boundednesscriteria of the above operators fromHardy-Orlicz spaces to (generalized)weighted Bergmanspaces and weighted BMOA spaces in the unit ball. We have the following result.
Theorem 3.1. Let 0 < s ≤ 1, 1 ≤ p < ∞ and, α > −1. Then uCϕ is bounded fromHs(� n) toApα(� n )
if and only if
supa∈� n
(log

(p/s)
|u(z)|p(1 − |z|2
)αdV (z) < ∞. (3.10)
Proof. Clearly, that uCϕ is bounded fromHs(� n) to Apα(� n ) is equivalent in saying that there
is a constant C > 0 such that for any f ∈ Hs(� n ),
∫� n
∣∣f ◦ ϕ(z)∣∣p|u(z)|p(1 − |z|2)α
dV (z) ≤ C∥∥f∥∥pHs
. (3.11)
Let us write dVα(z) = (1− |z|2)αdV (z), dVα,u(z) = |u(z)|pdVα(z). If μ = Vα,u ◦ϕ−1, then an easychange of variables gives that (3.11) is equivalent to
∫� n

The latter inequality is equivalent in saying that the measure μ is a p-Carleson measure forHs(� n). It follows from Theorem 2.9 and the equivalent definitions in Theorem 2.7 that (3.11)is equivalent to
supa∈� n
(log
4(1 − |a|)
)p ∫� n
⎛⎜⎝(1 − |a|2
)n|1 − 〈w, a〉|2n
⎞⎟⎠
p/s
dμ(w) < ∞. (3.13)
Changing the variables back, we finally obtain that uCϕ is bounded fromHΦs(� n) toApα(� n )
if and only if

The proof is complete.

Remarking that one has
R(Tbf)(z) = f(z)Rb(z) for any g, f ∈ H(� n ), (3.15)
we prove in the same way the following result.
Theorem 3.2. Let 0 < s ≤ 1, 1 ≤ p < ∞ and α ∈ � with α + p > −1. Then Tu,ϕ,b is bounded fromHs(� n) to Ap
α(� n) if and only if
supa∈� n

p/s
dμ(z) < ∞, (3.16)
where dμ(z) = |u(z)|p|Rb(z)|p(1 − |z|2)α+pdV (z).Let us consider now the operator Tu,b. We have the following:
Theorem 3.3. Let 0 < s ≤ 1, 0 ≤ p, q < ∞, and α > −1. Let 1/ρ(t) = (log(4/t))p(loglog(e4/t))q.Then Tu,b is bounded fromHs(� n) to BMOA(ρ), if and only if
supa∈� n

1+(2/s)
dμ(z) < ∞, (3.17)
with dμ(z) = |u(z)|2|Rb(z)|2(1 − |z|2)dV (z).
Proof. We recall that a function h is in BMOA(ρ) if and only if the measure |Rh(z)|2(1 −|z|2)dV (z) is a (1/ρ2)-Carleson measure (see [31]). That is
supa∈� n
(log

(1 − |a|2
)n|1 − 〈z, a〉|2n
|Rh(z)|2(1 − |z|2
)dV (z) < ∞.
(3.18)
It follows that Tu,b is bounded fromHs(� n) to BMOA(ρ) if and only if for any f ∈ Hs(� n ),
supa∈� n
(log

dμ(z) = |u(z)|2|Rb(z)|2(1 − |z|2)dV (z). By the equivalent definition in Theorem 2.7, this isequivalent in saying that for any f1 ∈ BMOA, f2 ∈ LMOA, and any g ∈ Hm(� n),
∫� n
∣∣f(z)∣∣2∣∣g(z)∣∣m∣∣f1(z)∣∣2p∣∣f2(z)∣∣2qdμ(z) ≤ C∥∥f∥∥2Hs
∥∥f1∥∥2pBMOA
∥∥f2∥∥2qLMOA
∥∥g∥∥mm, (3.20)
which is equivalent in saying that the measure
dμ(z) =
∣∣f1(z)∣∣2p∣∣f2(z)∣∣2q∥∥f1∥∥2pBMOA
∥∥f2∥∥2qLMOA
∣∣g(z)∣∣m∥∥g∥∥mm
|u(z)|2|Rb(z)|2(1 − |z|2
)dV (z) (3.21)
is a 2-Carleson measure for Hs(� n). It follows from the equivalent definitions of Theorems2.7 and 2.9 that the latter is equivalent to
supa∈� n
(log
41 − |a|
)2(p+1)(loglog

⎛⎜⎝(1 − |a|2

dμ(z) < ∞. (3.22)
The proof is complete.
The methods used in this text are quite specific to the case considered here, that is,the embedding Iμ : Hs(� n) → Lp(� n). We remark that even in the case 0 < s ≤ p < 1, thecondition (i) of Theorem 2.9 is still necessary. The proof given here does not allow to say ifit is sufficient. In general, the characterization of those positive measures μ on �
n such thatthe embedding map Iμ : HΦ1(� n ) → HΦ2(� n ) (Φ1 /=Φ2 if Φ1 and Φ2 are convex growthfunctions) is bounded, is still open.
