Stein's Hilbert transform conjecture for Lipschitz vector fields

Let u:R2Ru:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R} be a Lipschitz vector field, let γ(x,y,t)=u(x,y)t\gamma(x,y,t)=u(x,y)t, and choose ϵ0>0\epsilon_0>0 as above. Define the Hilbert transform along the corresponding variable curve by

HΓf(x,y)=p.v.ϵ0ϵ0f(xt,yu(x,y)t)dtt.H_{\Gamma}f(x,y)=\operatorname{p.v.}\int_{-\epsilon_0}^{\epsilon_0}f(x-t,y-u(x,y)t)\,\frac{dt}{t}.

Stein's conjecture. The operator HΓH_{\Gamma} is bounded on Lp(R2)L^p(\mathbb{R}^2) for every 1<p<1<p<\infty.

This is the singular-integral analogue of the preceding differentiation conjecture for Lipschitz vector fields. The source presents the assertion as a conjectural statement and supplies no resolution evidence.
