Abstract: We consider a large class of positive integral operators acting on functions which are defined on a space of homogeneous type with a group structure. We show that any such operator has a discrete (dyadic) version which is always essentially equivalent in norm to the original operator. As an application, we study conditions of “testing type,” like those initially introduced by E. Sawyer in relation to the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function, which determine when a positive integral operator satisfies two-weight weak-type or strong-type $(L^{p}, L^{q})$ estimates. We show that in such a space it is possible to characterize these estimates by testing them only over “cubes”. We also study some pointwise conditions which are sufficient for strong-type estimates and have applications to solvability of certain nonlinear equations.
