Abstract

We prove an L2×L2LtqLxrL^2\times L^2\to L^q_tL^r_x bilinear adjoint Fourier restriction estimate for nn-dimensional elliptic paraboloids, with n2n\ge 2 and 1q1\le q \le \infty, 1r21\le r\le 2 being on the endline 1q=n+12(11r)\frac{1}{q}=\frac{n+1}{2}\bigl(1-\frac{1}{r}\bigr) except for the critical index. This includes the endpoint case when q=r=n+3n+1q=r=\frac{n+3}{n+1}, a question left unsettled in Tao \cite{TaoGFA}. Apart from the critical index, it improves the sharp non-endline result of Lee-Vargas \cite{LeeVargas} to the full range, confirming a conjecture in the spirit of Foschi and Klainerman \cite{FoKl} on the elliptic paraboloid. Our proof is accomplished by uniting the \emph{profound} induction-on-scale tactics based on the wave-table theory and the method of descent both stemming from \cite{TaoMZ}.
