Weighted norm inequalities for singular integral operators acting on scalar weighted L^p is a classical topic that goes back to the 70's with the seminal work of R. Hunt, B. Muckenhoupt, and R. Wheeden. On the other hand, weighted norm inequalities for singular integral operators with matrix valued kernels acting on matrix weighted L^p are poorly understood and results (obtained by F. Nazarov, S. Treil, and A. Volberg in the late 90's) are only known for the situation when the kernel is essentially scalar valued.In this talk, we discuss matrix weighted norm inequalities for matrix valued dyadic paraproducts and discuss the possibility of using our results and a recent result of T. Hytonen to obtain concrete weighted norm inequalities for singular integral operators with matrix kernels acting on matrix weighted L^p. This is joint work with Hyun-Kyoung Kwon and Sandra Pott.
