A set subset of Euclidean space whose indicator function has maximal Gowers norm, among all sets of equal measure, is an ellipsoid up to Lebesgue null sets. If the indicator function has nearly maximal Gowers norm then the set nearly…

In this article, we develop a linear profile decomposition for the $L^p \to L^q$ adjoint Fourier restriction operator associated to the sphere, valid for exponent pairs $p<q$ for which this operator is bounded. Such theorems are new when $p…

We obtain the best approximation in $L^1(\R)$, by entire functions of exponential type, for a class of even functions that includes $e^{-\lambda|x|}$, where $\lambda >0$, $\log |x|$ and $|x|^{\alpha}$, where $-1 < \alpha < 1$. We also give…

We show that, for a natural class of rearrangement admissible spaces $X$ and $Y$, the Fourier operator is bounded between $X$ and $Y$ if and only if any operator of joint strong type $(1,\infty; 2,2)$ is also bounded between $X$ and $Y$. By…

The $L^2 \to L^p$ adjoint Fourier restriction inequality on the $d$-dimensional hyperboloid $\mathbb{H}^d \subset \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ holds provided $6 \leq p < \infty$, if $d=1$, and $2(d+2)/d \leq p\leq 2(d+1)/(d-1)$, if $d\geq2$.…

We prove the existence of functions that extremize the endpoint $L^2$ to $L^4$ adjoint Fourier restriction inequality on the one-sheeted hyperboloid in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^4$ and that, taking symmetries into consideration, any…

We prove that in dimensions $d \geq 3$, the non-endpoint, Lorentz-invariant $L^2 \to L^p$ adjoint Fourier restriction inequality on the $d$-dimensional hyperboloid $\mathbb{H}^d \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ possesses maximizers. The…

We establish the existence of extremizers for a Fourier restriction inequality on planar convex arcs without points with colinear tangents whose curvature satisfies a natural assumption. More generally, we prove that any extremizing…

The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…

The adjoint Fourier restriction inequality of Tomas and Stein states that the mapping $f\mapsto \widehat{f\sigma}$ is bounded from $\lt(S^2)$ to $L^4(\reals^3)$. We prove that there exist functions which extremize this inequality, and that…

Convolution with an appropriate surface measure on a paraboloid is known to define a bounded operator T from L^p(R^d) to L^q(R^d) for certain exponents p,q. By a quasiextremal for the associated inequality, we mean a function f for which…
