We show that Nikodym sets and local smoothing estimates for linear wave equations form a dichotomy: If Nikodym sets for a family of curves exist, then the related maximal operator is not bounded on $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$ for any $p<\infty$; if…

We study spherical analogues of Nikodym sets and related maximal functions. In particular, we prove sharp $L^p$-estimates for Nikodym maximal functions associated with spheres. As a corollary, any Nikodym set for spheres must have full…

We extend a result of the second author \cite[Theorem 1.1]{soggekaknik} to dimensions $d \geq 3$ which relates the size of $L^p$-norms of eigenfunctions for $2<p<\frac{2(d+1)}{d-1}$ to the amount of $L^2$-mass in shrinking tubes about…

We show that for any dimension $d\ge3$, one can obtain Wolff's $L^{(d+2)/2}$ bound on Kakeya-Nikodym maximal function in $\mathbb R^d$ for $d\ge3$ without the induction on scales argument. The key ingredient is to reduce to a 2-dimensional…

We consider the $L^p$ mapping properties of maximal averages associated to families of curves, and thickened curves, in the plane. These include the (planar) Kakeya maximal function, the circular maximal functions of Wolff and Bourgain, and…

We obtain estimates for maximal functions that arise when one studies Nikodym-type sets. We also formulate a curvature condition that allows favorable estimates for these maximal functions.

We study maximal operators associated to singular averages along finite subsets $\Sigma$ of the Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(d,n)$ of $d$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb R^n$. The well studied $d=1$ case corresponds to the the directional…

Extending the methods developed in the author's previous paper and using adapted coordinate systems in two variables, an L^p boundedness theorem is proven for maximal operators over hypersurfaces in R^3 when p > 2. When the best possible p…

We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}$ associated to averages along families of finite type curves in the plane, defined by $$\mathbb{M}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{\mathbb{C}} f(x-ty) \,…

Let T : Lp --> Lp be a contraction, with p strictly between 1 and infinity, and assume that T is analytic, that is, there exists a constant K such that n\norm{T^n-T^{n-1}} < K for any positive integer n. Under the assumption that T is…

We prove that for a finite type curve in $\mathbb R^3$ the maximal operator generated by dilations is bounded on $L^p$ for sufficiently large $p$. We also show the endpoint $L^p \to L^{p}_{1/p}$ regularity result for the averaging operators…

Let $M^{(u)}$, $H^{(u)}$ be the maximal operator and Hilbert transform along the parabola $(t, ut^2) $. For $U\subset(0,\infty)$ we consider $L^p$ estimates for the maximal functions $\sup_{u\in U}|M^{(u)} f|$ and $\sup_{u\in U}|H^{(u)}…

The primary goal of this paper is to introduce bilinear analogues of uncentered spherical averages, Nikodym averages associated with spheres and the associated bilinear maximal functions. We obtain $L^p$-estimates for uncentered bilinear…

We consider a type of maximal operators associated to moment curves in $\mathbb R^d, d\geq 3.$ We derive $L^p$ mapping properties for these operators. In a special case, the estimate is sharp.

We reprove Wolff's $L^{\frac{5}2}-$ bound for the $\R^3-$Kakeya maximal function without appealing to the argument of induction on scales. The main ingredient in our proof is an adaptation of Sogge's strategy used in the work on…

We prove that the Hardy--Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is bounded on the variable Lebesgue space $L^{p(\cdot)}(X,d,\mu)$, with $1<p_-\le p_+<\infty$, over an unbounded space of homogeneous type $(X,d,\mu)$ with a Borel-semiregular measure…

Let M denote the maximal function along the polynomial curve p(t)=(t,t^2,...,t^d) in R^d: M(f)=sup_{r>0} (1/2r) \int_{|t|<r} |f(x-p(t))| dt. We show that the L^2-norm of this operator grows at most logarithmically with the parameter d:…

Consider $\mathbb R^d\times \mathbb R^m$ with the group structure of a two-step nilpotent Lie group and natural parabolic dilations. The maximal function originally introduced by Nevo and Thangavelu in the setting of the Heisenberg group…

The goal of this note is to establish non-tangential convergence results for Schr\"{o}dinger operators along restricted curves. We consider the relationship between the dimension of this kind of approach region and the regularity for the…

Let $M$ be the maximal operator associated to a smooth curve in $\mathbb R^3$ which has nonvanishing curvature and torsion. We prove that $M$ is bounded on $L^p$ if and only if $p>3$.
