We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…

We consider spherical averages of the Fourier transform of fractal measures and improve both the upper and lower bounds on the rate of decay. Maximal estimates with respect to fractal measures are deduced for the Schr\"odinger and wave…

We sharpen the moment comparison inequalities with sharp constants for sums of random vectors uniform on Euclidean spheres, providing a deficit term (optimal in high dimensions).

We improve the known upper bound for short exponential sums and increase the range on which a sharp upper bound is known.

We prove upper and lower bounds for certain sums of products of fractional parts by using majoring and minorizing functions from Fourier analysis. In special cases the upper bounds are sharp if there exist counterexamples to the Littlewood…

We run an iteration argument due to Pramanik and Seeger, to provide a proof of sharp decoupling inequalities for conical surfaces and for $k$-cones. These are extensions of results \L aba and Pramanik to sharp exponents.

We completely classify Fourier summation formulas, and in particular, all crystalline measures with quadratic decay. Our classification employs techniques from almost periodic functions, Hermite-Biehler functions, de Branges spaces and…

We bound an exponential sum that appears in the study of irregularities of distribution (the low-frequency Fourier energy of the sum of several Dirac measures) by geometric quantities: a special case is that for all $\left\{ x_1, \dots,…

We prove that the Fourier transform of self-similar measures on the complex plane has fast decay outside of a very sparse set of frequencies, with quantitative estimates, extending the results obtained in the real line, first by R. Kaufman,…

This text contains an alternative presentation, and in certain cases an improvement, of the "hyperbolic dispersive estimate" that was proved by Anantharaman and Nonnenmacher and used to make progress towards the quantum unique ergodicity…

We prove sharp $L^{12}$ estimates for exponential sums associated with nondegenerate curves in ${\mathbb R}^4$. We place Bourgain's progress on the Lindel"of hypothesis in a larger framework that contains a continuum of estimates of…

We estimate the mean square of a short exponential sum involving Fourier coefficients of a cusp form with a linear twist, a smooth weight function, and a relatively short averaging interval.

We study equisingular deformation problems for curves and surfaces in algebraic families, with particular emphasis on situations where nodal behavior is no longer generic. Extending classical Severi theory, we develop deformation--theoretic…

We study averages over squarefree moduli of the size of exponential sums with polynomial phases. We prove upper bounds on various moments of such sums, and obtain evidence of un-correlation of exponential sums associated to different…

We establish the general form of a geometric comparison principle for $n$-fold convolutions of certain singular measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which holds for arbitrary $n$ and $d$. This translates into a pointwise inequality between the…

In previous work, the authors introduced "soft" methods to prove the effective (i.e. with power savings error) equidistribution of "shears" in cusped hyperbolic surfaces. In this paper, we study the same problem but now allow full use of…

Let $A$ be a subset of $\mathbb{Z} / N\mathbb{Z}$ and let $\mathcal{R}$ be the set of large Fourier coefficients of $A$. Properties of $\mathcal{R}$ have been studied in works of M.-- C. Chang, B. Green and the author. In the paper we…

Instead of sampling a function at a single point, average sampling takes the weighted sum of function values around the point. Such a sampling strategy is more practical and more stable. In this note, we present an explicit method with an…

We prove several incidence theorems in vector spaces over finite fields using bounds for various classes of exponential sums and apply these to Erdos-Falconer type distance problems.

We study convergence properties of sparse averages of partial sums of Fourier series of continuous functions. By sparse averages, we are considering an increasing sequences of integers $n_0 < n_1 < n_2 < ...$ and looking at…
