Using the notion of higher-order Fourier dimension introduced in \cite{M2} (which was a sort of psuedorandomness condition stemming from the Gowers norms of Additive Combinatorics), we prove a maximal theorem and corresponding…
In this thesis, we study problems at the interface of analysis and discrete mathematics. We discuss analogues of well known Hardy-type inequalities and Rearrangement inequalities on the lattice graphs $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with a particular focus…
Let $\phi$ be a smooth function on a compact interval $I$. Let $$\gamma(t)=\left (t,t^2,\cdots,t^{n-1},\phi(t)\right).$$ In this paper, we show that $$\left(\int_I \big|\hat f(\gamma(t))\big|^q \big|\phi^{(n)}(t)\big|^{\frac{2}{n(n+1)}}…
We study the problem of maximizing the minimal value over the sphere $S^{d-1}\subset \mathbb R^d$ of the potential generated by a configuration of $d+1$ points on $S^{d-1}$ (the maximal discrete polarization problem). The points interact…
We prove a sharp quantitative version of recent Faber-Krahn inequalities for the continuous Wavelet transforms associated to a certain family of Cauchy wavelet windows . Our results are uniform on the parameters of the family of Cauchy…
The purpose of this paper is to prove a Fourier restriction estimate for certain 2-dimensional surfaces in $\bbR^{2d}$, $d\ge 3$. These surfaces are defined by a complex curve $\gamma(z)$ of simple type, which is given by a mapping of the…
We explore the extent to which the Fourier transform of an $L^p$ density supported on the sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$ can have large mass on affine subspaces, placing particular emphasis on lines and hyperplanes. This involves establishing…
Let $S$ be a hypersurface in $\Bbb R^3$ which is the graph of a smooth, finite type function $\phi,$ and let $\mu=\rho\, d\si$ be a surface carried measure on $S,$ where $d\si$ denotes the surface element on $S$ and $\rho$ a smooth density…
We extend the estimates for maximal Fourier restriction operators proved by M\"{u}ller, Ricci, and Wright in \cite{MR3960255} and Ramos in \cite{MR4055940} to the case of arbitrary convex curves in the plane, with constants uniform in the…
We show that if a closed discrete subset $A \subseteq \mathbf{R}^d$ is denser than a certain critical threshold, then $A$ is a Fourier uniqueness set, while if $A$ is sparser, then uniqueness fails and one can prescribe arbitrary values for…
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…
In this paper, we are concerned with the stability problem for endpoint conformally invariant cases of the Sobolev inequality on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$. Namely, we will establish the stability for Beckner's log-Sobolev inequality and…
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…
Given a function $f$ on $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, we study the following problem. What is the largest affine subspace $\mathcal{U}$ such that when restricted to $\mathcal{U}$, all the non-trivial Fourier coefficients of $f$ are very small? For the…
The Tomas-Stein inequality or the adjoint Fourier restriction inequality for the sphere $S^1$ states that the mapping $f\mapsto \hat{f\sigma}$ is bounded from $L^2(S^1)$ to $L^6(\mathbb{R}^2)$. We prove that there exists an extremizer for…
In this paper we obtain some sharp Hardy inequalities with weight functions that may admit singularities on the unit sphere. In order to prove the main results of the paper we use some recent sharp inequalities for the lowest eigenvalue of…
Recently Guduru and coworkers have demonstrated with neat theory and experiments that both increase of strength and of toughness are possible in the contact of a rigid sphere with concentric single scale of waviness, against a very soft…
We show there exists a packing of identical spheres in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with density at least \[ (1-o(1))\frac{d \log d}{2^{d+1}}\, , \] as $d\to\infty$. This improves upon previous bounds for general $d$ by a factor of order $\log d$ and is…
Consider the trilinear form for twisted convolution on $\mathbb{R}^{2d}$: \begin{equation*} \mathcal{T}_t(\mathbf{f}):=\iint f_1(x)f_2(y)f_3(x+y)e^{it\sigma(x,y)}dxdy,\end{equation*} where $\sigma$ is a symplectic form and $t$ is a…
We prove the first inverse theorem for point--sphere incidence bounds over finite fields in dimensions $d \ge 3$, showing that near-extremality forces algebraic rigidity. While sharp upper bounds have been known for over a decade, the…
