Localization and projections on bi-parameter BMO

Abstract

We prove that for any operator $T$ on bi--parameter BMO the identity factors through $T$ or $I-T$. Bourgain's localization method provides the conceptual framework of our proof. It consists in replacing the factorization problem on the non--separable bi--parameter BMO by its localized, finite dimensional counterpart. We solve the resulting finite dimensional factorization problems by exploiting the geometry and combinatorics of colored dyadic rectangles.
