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…
We study the extension estimates for paraboloids in d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields F_q with q elements. We use the connection between L^2 based restriction estimates and L^p\to L^r extension estimates for paraboloids. As a…
We prove that the finite field Fourier extension operator for the paraboloid is bounded from $L^2\to L^r$ for $r\geq \frac{2d+4}{d}$ in even dimensions $d\ge 8$, which is the optimal $L^2$ estimate. For $d=6$ we obtain the optimal range $r>…
We provide $L^p \to L^q$ refinements on some Fourier restriction estimates obtained using polynomial partitioning. Let $S\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ be a compact $C^\infty$ surface with strictly positive second fundamental form. We derive sharp…
In this paper we study the $L^p-L^r$ boundedness of the extension operators associated with paraboloids in vector spaces over finite fields.In higher even dimensions, we estimate the number of additive quadruples in the subset $E$ of the…
Given $A \subset F_{p}^2$ a sufficiently small set in the plane over a prime residue field, we prove that there are at most $O_\epsilon (|A|^{\frac{99}{41}+\epsilon})$ rectangles with corners in $A$. The exponent $\frac{99}{41} =…
We improve the exponent for the discrete Fourier restriction to the $n$ dimensional sphere, from $p=\frac{2(n+1)}{n-3}$ to $p=\frac{2n}{n-3}$, when $n\ge 4$.
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…
Suppose $0 < \alpha \leq n$, $H: \Bbb R^n \to [0,1]$ is a Lebesgue measurable function, and $A_\alpha(H)$ is the infimum of all numbers $C$ for which the inequality $\int_B H(x) dx \leq C R^\alpha$ holds for all balls $B \subset \Bbb R^n$…
We improve the best known exponent for the restriction conjecture in R^6. Our idea is applicable to any dimension n satisfying n = 0 mod 3, though we do not explicitly calculate the improvement for n > 6. This improves the recent results of…
Let $d\ge3$ and $\mathbb{F}_q^{\,d}$ be the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field of order $q$, where $q$ is an odd prime power. Let $X_\pi$ be the set of lines through the origin intersecting the slice $\pi\cap S^{d-1}$, where…
We propose a new approach to the Fourier restriction conjectures. It is based on a discretization of the Fourier extension operators in terms of quadratically modulated wave packets. Using this new point of view, and by combining natural…
We improve the range of exponents for the restriction problem for the 3-d paraboloid over finite fields. The key new ingredient is a variant of the Bourgain-Katz-Tao finite field incidence theorem derived from sum-product estimates. In…
The first purpose of this paper is to provide new finite field extension theorems for paraboloids and spheres. By using the unusual good Fourier transform of the zero sphere in some specific dimensions, which has been discovered recently in…
We prove that a local trilinear extension inequality on the paraboloid in three dimensions is equivalent to the Fourier restriction conjecture, and then we prove a variant involving smooth Alpert wavelets that represents the weakest such…
Let $\mathbb{H}$ be a $(d-1)$-dimensonal hyperbolic paraboloid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $Ef$ be the Fourier extension operator associated to $\mathbb{H},$ with $f$ supported in $B^{d-1}(0,2)$. We prove that $\|Ef\|_{L^p (B(0,R))} \leq…
In contrast to elliptic surfaces, the Fourier restriction problem for hypersurfaces of non-vanishing Gaussian curvature which admit principal curvatures of opposite signs is still hardly understood. In fact, even for 2-surfaces, the only…
We improve the estimates in the restriction problem in dimension $n \ge 4$. To do so, we establish a weak version of a $k$-linear restriction estimate for any $k$. The exponents in this weak $k$-linear estimate are sharp for all $k$ and…
In this paper we study the restriction estimate for the flat disk over finite fields. Mockenhaupt and Tao initially studied this problem but their results were addressed only for dimensions $n=4,6$. We improve and extend their results to…
We consider a surface with negative curvature in $\Bbb R^3$ which is a cubic perturbation of the saddle. For this surface, we prove a new restriction theorem, analogous to the theorem for paraboloids proved by L. Guth in 2016. This specific…
