Abstract: Let n2 and let L be a second-order elliptic operator of divergence form with coefficients consisting of both an elliptic symmetric part and a BMO anti-symmetric part in Rn. In this article, we consider the weighted Kato square root problem for L. More precisely, we prove that the square root L1/2 satisfies the weighted Lp estimates L1/2(f)Lpω(Rn)CfLpω(Rn;Rn) for any p(1,) and ωAp(Rn) (the class of Muckenhoupt weights), and that fLpω(Rn;Rn)CL1/2(f)Lpω(Rn) for any p(1,2+ε) and ωAp(Rn)RH(2+εp)(Rn) (the class of reverse Hölder weights), where ε(0,) is a constant depending only on n and the operator L, and where (2+εp) denotes the Hölder conjugate exponent of 2+εp. Moreover, for any given q(2,), we give a sufficient condition to obtain that fLpω(Rn;Rn)CL1/2(f)Lpω(Rn) for any p(1,q) and ωAp(Rn)RH(qp)(Rn). As an application, we prove that when the coefficient matrix A that appears in L satisfies the small BMO condition, the Riesz transform L1/2 is bounded on Lpω(Rn) for any given p(1,) and ωAp(Rn). Furthermore, applications to the weighted L2-regularity problem with the Dirichlet or the Neumann boundary condition are also given.
