Abstract

Large-cap or large-ensemble decoupling inequalities were initially studied by Demeter. These are intimately connected to the reverse square-function conjecture and restriction conjecture in Fourier restriction theory. By strips, we mean a partition of the $R^{-1}$-neighborhood of the paraboloid into $1\times R^{-1/2}\times R^{-1}$ curved large-caps. In this article, we prove the sharp $\ell^2(L^{10/3})$ decoupling estimate for strips in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We reduce the strip decoupling inequalities to a planar incidence problem, which is dealt with via two-ends Furstenberg incidence estimates. Our method is inspired by Wang--Wu on the restriction conjecture.

Sharp $L^p$-estimates for wave equation on $ax+b$ groups

Let $G$ be the group $\mathbb{R}_+\ltimes \mathbb{R}^n$ endowed with Riemannian symmetric space metric $d$ and the right Haar measure $\mathrm{d} ρ$ which is of $ax+b$ type, and $L$ be the positive definite left-invariant distinguished Laplacian on $G$. Let $u=u(t,\cdot)$ be the solution to $\partial_t^2u+Lu=0$ with initial conditions $u|_{t=0}=f_0$ and $\partial_tu|_{t=0}=f_1$. In this article we show that for a fixed $t\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$ and every $1<p<\infty$, \begin{align*} \|u(t,\cdot)\|_{L^p(\mathrm{d}ρ)}\leq C_p\,\Big( (1+|t|)^{2|1/p-1/2|}\|f_0\|_{L^p_{α_0}(\mathrm{d}ρ)}+(1+|t|)\,\|f_1\|_{L^p_{α_1}(\mathrm{d}ρ)}\Big) \end{align*} if and only if \begin{align*} α_0\geq n\left|{1\over p}-{1\over2}\right| \quad \mbox{and} \quad α_1\geq n\left|{1\over p}-{1\over2}\right|-1. \end{align*} The polynomial-in-time growth $1+|t|$ multiplying $\|f_1\|_{L^p_{α_1}(\mathrm{d}ρ)}$ in the above estimate is best possible. This endpoint result settles the conjecture raised by Müller and Thiele [Studia Math. \textbf{179} (2007)].

On volumes of simplices in intermediate dimensions

A variant of the Falconer distance problem asks for fixed $k\geq 1$ and $d\geq k+1$, how large does the Hausdorff dimension of a Borel set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ need to be to guarantee that there exist $x_0,\ldots,x_{k}\in E$ such that $\text{Vol}_{k+1}^{(x_0,\ldots,x_{k})}(E) = \lbrace \text{Vol}_{k+1}(x_0,\ldots,x_{k},x_{k+1}) : x_{k+1}\in E \rbrace$ has positive Lebesgue measure. Here $\text{Vol}_{k+1}(x_0,\ldots,x_{k},x_{k+1})$ denotes the $k+1$-volume of the $k+1$ simplex formed by $x_0,\ldots,x_{k},x_{k+1}$. Recently, Shmerkin and Yavicoli established a sharp dimensional threshold $k$ in the case when $d=k+1$. In this paper we extend their result to $k+1 \leq d \leq 2k$ and obtain a non-trivial dimensional threshold $d-k$ when $d>2k$. The result is motivated by ideas from Shmerkin and Yavicoli. A crucial part of the argument is an application of work by Bright, Ortiz and Zakharov on a continuum Beck-type theorem for hyperplanes as well as classic results of Marstrand on projections and slicing theorems. In addition, we investigate a more elementary approach under a condition called the Fubini property for Hausdorff dimension as introduced in the work of Héra, Keleti and Máthé.

Stability of concentration in the Paley-Wiener space

We prove stability of concentration in the Paley-Wiener space for each fixed time-bandwidth product. The concentration deficit controls the squared $L^2(\mathbb R)$-distance from a translated first prolate spheroidal wave function and the squared normalized symmetric difference from an interval at the same center. The obtained exponent for the function distance is optimal. The main idea is the introduction of the set discrepancy weighted by the best optimizers in place of the symmetric difference. The proof then combines elementary Hilbert space arguments with classical properties of the prolate spheroidal wave functions.
