Abstract

We estimate the L2L^2 norm of the restriction to a totally geodesic submanifold of the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the standard flat torus Td\mathbb{T}^d, d2d\ge2. We reduce getting correct bounds to counting lattice points in the intersection of some ν\nu-transverse bands on the sphere. Moreover, we prove the correct bounds for rational totally geodesic submanifolds of arbitrary codimension. In particular, we verify the conjecture of Bourgain-Rudnick on L2L^2-restriction estimates for rational hyperplanes. On T2\mathbb{T}^2, we prove the uniform L2L^2 restriction bounds for closed geodesics. On T3\mathbb{T}^3, we obtain explicit L2L^2 restriction estimates for the totally geodesic submanifolds, which improve the corresponding results by Burq-G\'erard-Tzvetkov, Hu, Chen-Sogge.
