New bound on the Hausdorff dimension of Kakeya sets in $\mathbb{R}^4$

Abstract

We obtain a slight improvement to the trilinear bound of Guth-Zahl by application of Wang-Zahl's resolution of 3-D Kakeya to tubes inside a thickened neighborhood of a variety. This is combined with the planebrush argument of Katz and Zahl to obtain the new bound of 3.073.

Jackson and Bernstein Inequalities with Explicit Weight Dependence for Band-Limited Wavelet Approximation in Weighted Besov Spaces

We prove direct and inverse estimates for band-limited biorthogonal wavelet systems in weighted Besov spaces with Muckenhoupt weights. On functions recovered from their wavelet expansion along the dyadic tree of the unit cube, the error of approximation by a prescribed number of terms decays at a rate set by the smoothness-to-dimension ratio, and this exponent cannot be increased. Under a multiresolution condition, Bernstein inequalities hold at a single scale and on every multiresolution subspace, and the linear approximation spaces are identified with weighted Lebesgue--Besov intersections. All constants are explicit; the weight enters only through displayed powers of the Muckenhoupt characteristic.

Weak type $(1,1)$ bounds for rough oscillatory singular integrals

In their seminal work, F. Ricci and E. M. Stein [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 83, 1--3 (1986)] introduced the oscillatory singular integral \[ T_Pf(x)=\mathrm{p.v.}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} e^{iP(x,y)}\frac{Ω(x-y)}{|x-y|^n}f(y)\,dy, \] and S. Chanillo and M. Christ [Duke Math. J. 55, 141--155 (1987)] established its weak-type $(1,1)$ inequality for smooth $Ω$. For the rough variant, however, the weak-type $(1,1)$ inequality remained a long-standing open question. In the present paper, we settle this problem: specifically, we prove that the rough oscillatory singular integral is of weak type $(1,1)$ with $Ω\in L\log^+L(\mathbb{S}^{n-1})$. Moreover, we establish weak-type $(1,1)$ bounds for the rough maximal oscillatory operator associated with $T_P$, a result of independent interest.

Restriction estimates using multilinear Kakeya

We use multilinear Kakeya estimates to establish restriction estimates in higher dimensions. For sufficiently large dimensions, our approach yields better exponents than those obtained by a direct application of polynomial partitioning.
