The paper by R. R. Coifman and C. Fefferman presents simplified proofs of weighted norm inequalities for singular integrals and maximal functions. The main results are Theorems I and II, which establish that the inequality \[ \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} |Tf(x)|^p \omega(x) \, dx \leq C \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} |f(x)|^p \omega(x) \, dx \] holds for all \( f \in L^p(\omega(x) dx) \) if and only if the weight function \( \omega \) satisfies the condition \[ (A_p) \quad \sup_Q \left( \frac{1}{|Q|} \int_Q \omega dx \right) \left( \frac{1}{|Q|} \int_Q \omega^{-\frac{1}{p-1}} dx \right)^{p-1} < \infty, \] where the supremum is taken over all cubes \( Q \). The authors also prove that this condition is equivalent to the Helson-Szegö condition for \( p = 2 \) and provide a corollary sharpening the duality of \( H^1 \) and BMO in one dimension. The paper includes detailed proofs of these theorems and discusses related results, such as Theorem III, which extends the inequality to arbitrary singular integrals. The authors conclude by noting that their methods have broader applications in various areas of mathematics, including partial differential equations.The paper by R. R. Coifman and C.
