Murdocca %J Mathematics %D 2012 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s00605-013-0533-y %X We consider certain anisotropic translation invariant pseudodifferential operators, belonging to a class denoted by $\mathrm{op}(\mathcal{M}^{\lambda}_{\psi})$, where $\lambda$ and $\psi=(\psi_1,\dots,\psi_n)$ are the "order" and "weight" functions, defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$, for the corresponding space of symbols. We prove that the boundedness of a suitable function $F_p\colon\mathbb{R}^n\to[0,+\infty)$, $1
