\(A_p-A_{\infty }\) -bound for \(\mathcal {M}\) , some partial results related to a Buckley-type estimate for \(\mathcal {M}\) , and a sufficient condition for the boundedness of \(\mathcal {M}\) between weighted \(L^p\) spaces with different weights taking into account the precise bounds. Next we get a bound for multilinear Calderón–Zygmund operators in terms of dyadic positive multilinear operators in the spirit of the recent work (Lerner, J Anal Math 121:141-61, 2013). Then we obtain a multilinear version of the -span class="a-plus-plus inline-equation id-i-eq7"> \(A_2\) conjecture- Several open problems are posed." />
