We show local smoothing estimates in $L^p$-spaces for solutions to the Hermite wave equation. For this purpose, we obtain a parametrix given by a Fourier Integral Operator, which we linearize. This leads us to analyze local smoothing…

The theory of Fourier integral operators is surveyed, with an emphasis on local smoothing estimates and their applications. After reviewing the classical background, we describe some recent work of the authors which established sharp local…

We prove a family of identities that involve the solutions to the free Schreodinger equation. As a consequence of these identities we shall deduce a lower bound for the local smoothing estimate and a uniqueness criterion.

This paper is concerned with two dual aspects of the regularity question of the Navier-Stokes equations. First, we prove a local in time localized smoothing effect for local energy solutions. More precisely, if the initial data restricted…

We prove the higher-dimensional analogue of Wolff's local smoothing estimate (Geom. Funct. Anal. 2001) for large p. As in the 2+1-dimensional case, the estimate is sharp for any given value of p, but it is likely that the range of p can be…

We develop a general theory for the existence, uniqueness, and higher regularity of solutions to wave-type equations on Lorentzian manifolds with timelike curves of cone-type singularities. These singularities may be of geometric type (cone…

In this short note, we prove a refinement of bilinear local smoothing estimate to Airy solutions, when the frequency support of two wave are separated. As an application we prove a smoothing property of a bilinear form.

We improve the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ bounds on Stein's square function to the best-known range of the Fourier restriction problem when $n\geq4$. Applications including certain local smoothing estimates are also discussed.

We consider a family of spherically symmetric, asymptotically Euclidean manifolds with two trapped sets, one which is unstable and one which is semi-stable. The phase space structure is that of an inflection transmission set. We prove a…

We formulate a local smoothing conjecture for bilinear Fourier integral operators in every dimension $d \ge 2,$ derived from the celebrated linear case due to Sogge, which we refer to as the \emph{bilinear smoothing conjecture}. We show…

In 1988, Johnson, Papadimitriou and Yannakakis wrote that "Practically all the empirical evidence would lead us to conclude that finding locally optimal solutions is much easier than solving NP-hard problems". Since then the empirical…

In this talk we show that any spherically symmetric spacetime admits locally a maximal spacelike slicing. The above condition is reduced to solve a decoupled system of first order quasi-linear partial differential equations. The solution…
