By combining the planebrush argument of Katz and Zahl \cite{katz21} with the decoupling-incidence method of Wang and Wu \cite{WangWu2024}, we derive new bounds for the Fourier restriction problem and the Bochner--Riesz problem, extending…

We study L^p-L^r restriction estimates for algebraic varieties in d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. Unlike the Euclidean case, if the dimension $d$ is even, then it is conjectured that the L^{(2d+2)/(d+3)}-L^2 Stein-Tomas…

Let $P$ denote the $3$-dimensional paraboloid over a finite field of odd characteristic in which $-1$ is not a square. We show that the Fourier extension operator associated with $P$ maps $L^2$ to $L^{r}$ for $r > \frac{32}{9} \approx…

In a family of $S_{d+1}$-fields ($d=2,3,4$), we obtain the true upper and lower bound of the residues of Dedekind zeta functions except for a density zero set. For $S_5$-fields, we need to assume the strong Artin conjecture. We also show…

We prove that a Kakeya set in a vector space over a finite field of size $q$ always supports a probability measure whose Fourier transform is bounded by $q^{-1}$ for all non-zero frequencies. We show that this bound is sharp in all…

The Fourier restriction phenomenon and the size of Kakeya sets are explored in the setting of the ring of integers modulo $N$ for general $N$ and a striking similarity with the corresponding euclidean problems is observed. One should…

We study subsets of the $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, for odd $q$, which contain either a sphere for each radius or a sphere for each first coordinate of the center. We call such sets radii spherical…

The Fourier restriction conjecture is a fundamental problem in harmonic analysis. In this paper, we investigate restriction estimates for degenerate higher codimensional quadratic surfaces and obtain sharp results for some types of…

In 1901, Severi proved that if $Z$ is an irreducible hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^4(\mathbb{C})$ that contains a three dimensional set of lines, then $Z$ is either a quadratic hypersurface or a scroll of planes. We prove a discretized…

We adapt Guth's polynomial partitioning argument for the Fourier restriction problem to the context of the Kakeya problem. By writing out the induction argument as a recursive algorithm, additional multiscale geometric information is made…

We give an abstract argument that an a priori Fourier restriction estimate for a certain choice of exponents automatically implies maximal and variational Fourier restriction estimates. These, in turn, provide pointwise and quantitative…

The purpose of these notes is describe the state of progress on the restriction problem in harmonic analysis, with an emphasis on the developments of the past decade or so on the Euclidean space version of these problems for spheres and…

The first purpose of this paper is to solve completely the finite field cone restriction conjecture in four dimensions with $-1$ non-square. The second is to introduce a new approach to study incidence problems via restriction theory. More…

Around the early 2000-s, Bourgain, Katz and Tao introduced an arithmetic approach to study Kakeya-type problems. They showed that the Euclidean Kakeya conjecture follows from a natural problem in additive combinatorics, now referred to as…
