We estimate the number of solutions of certain diagonal congruences involving factorials. We use these results to bound exponential sums with products of two factorials $n!m!$ and also derive asymptotic formulas for the number of solutions…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathcal{M}$ associated to averages along families of hypersurfaces $S$ of finite type in $\mathbb{R}^n.$ In this paper, we prove that if $S$ is a finite type hypersurface which is of…
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:…
We show explicit formulas for the evaluation of (possibly higher-order) fractional Laplacians of some functions supported on ellipsoids. In particular, we derive the explicit expression of the torsion function and give examples of…
The operator $T$, defined by convolution with the affine arc length measure on the moment curve parametrized by $h(t)=(t,t^{2},...,t^{d})$ is a bounded operator from $L^{p}$ to $L^{q}$ if $(\frac{1}{p}, \frac{1}{q})$ lies on a line segment.…
Let $T$ be a strongly Kreiss bounded linear operator on $L^p$. We obtain a bound on the rate of growth of the norms of the powers of $T$. The bound is optimal with respect to the polynomial scale. The proof makes use of Fourier multipliers,…
We study bilinear $L^2$ Fourier restriction estimates which are related to the 2d wave equation in the sense that we restrict to subsets of thickened null cones. In an earlier paper we studied the corresponding 3d problem, obtaining several…
Let $S \subset \Bbb R^n$ be a smooth compact hypersurface with a strictly positive second fundamental form, $E$ be the Fourier extension operator on $S$, and $X$ be a Lebesgue measurable subset of $\Bbb R^n$. If $X$ contains a ball of each…
Let $Q$ be a first-order differential operator on a compact, smooth oriented Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. Then, Friedrichs' extension lemma states that the minimal closed extension $Q_{min}$ (the closure of the graph) and the…
We provide a general scheme for proving $L^p$ estimates for certain bilinear Fourier restrictions outside the locally $L^2$ setting. As an application, we show how such estimates follow for the lacunary polygon. In contrast with prior…
We establish that the Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}: L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)\to L^{p',p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$, for $d\in\mathbb{N}$ and $1<p<2$, is not strictly singular, thereby confirming the optimality of the source and target spaces. A~similar…
Peral/Miyachi's celebrated theorem on fixed time $L^{p}$ estimates with loss of derivatives for the wave equation states that the operator $(I-\Delta)^{- \frac{\alpha}{2}}\exp(i \sqrt{-\Delta})$ is bounded on $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ if and…
We study extremal functions for a family of Poincar\'e-Sobolev-type inequalities. These functions minimize, for subcritical or critical $p\geq 2$, the quotient ${\|\nabla u\|_2}/{\|u\|_p}$ among all $u \in H^1(B)\setminus\{0\}$ with…
We obtain $L^p-$estimates for the full and lacunary maximal functions associated to the twisted bilinear spherical averages given by \[\mathfrak{A}_t(f_1,f_2)(x,y)=\int_{\mathbb S^{2d-1}}f_1(x+tz_1,y)f_2(x,y+tz_2)\;d\sigma(z_1,z_2),\;t>0,\]…
We examine canonical bases for weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight $0$ and level $p = 2, 3, 5, 7, 13$ with poles only at the cusp at $\infty$. We show that many of the Fourier coefficients for elements of these canonical bases are…
In this paper we study the almost everywhere convergence of the expansions related to the self-adjoint extension of the Laplace operator. The sufficient conditions for summability is obtained. For the orders of Riesz means, which greater…
A Fourier restriction estimate is obtained for a broad class of conic surfaces by adding a weight to the usual underlying measure. The new restriction estimate exhibits a certain affine-invariance and implies the sharp $L^p-L^q$ restriction…
Given a fixed $p\neq 2$, we prove a simple and effective characterization of all radial multipliers of $\cF L^p(\Bbb R^d)$, provided that the dimension $d$ is sufficiently large. The method also yields new $L^q$ space-time regularity…
Let $d\ge 2$ and $T$ be the convolution operator $Tf(x)=\int_{\reals^{d-1}} f(x'-t,x_d-|t|^2)\,dt$, which is is bounded from $L^{(d+1)/d}(\reals^d)$ to $L^{d+1}(\reals^d)$. We show that any critical point $f\in L^{(d+1)/d}$ of the…
