We define the reflection of a random walk at a general barrier and derive, in case the increments are light tailed and have negative mean, a necessary and sufficient criterion for the global maximum of the reflected process to be finite…
We show that, for $n\geq 3$, $\lim_{t \to 0} e^{it\Delta}f(x) = f(x)$ holds almost everywhere for all $f \in H^s (\mathbb{R}^n)$ provided that $s>\frac{n}{2(n+1)}$. Due to a counterexample by Bourgain, up to the endpoint, this result is…
We construct a measure on the well-approximable numbers whose Fourier transform decays at a nearly optimal rate. This gives a logarithmic improvement on a previous construction of Kaufman.
Let $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ be a Hadamard lacunary sequence. We give upper bounds for the maximal gap of the set of dilates $\{a_n \alpha\}_{n \leq N}$ modulo 1, in terms of $N$. For any lacunary sequence $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ we…
We show $L^p$ estimates for square roots of second order complex elliptic systems $L$ in divergence form on open sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ subject to mixed boundary conditions. The underlying set is supposed to be locally uniform near the…
We prove endpoint bounds for derivatives of fractional maximal functions with either smooth convolution kernel or lacunary set of radii in dimensions $n \geq 2$. We also show that the spherical fractional maximal function maps $L^{p}$ into…
In this paper we study extremal behaviors of the mean to max ratio of the $p$-torsion function with respect to the geometry of the domain. For $p$ larger than the dimension of the space $N$, we prove that the upper bound is uniformly below…
We make progress on an interesting problem on the boundedness of maximal modulations of the Hilbert transform along the parabola. Namely, if we consider the multiplier arising from it and restrict it to lines, we prove uniform $L^p$ bounds…
We obtain sharp bounds for the modulus of continuity of the uncentered maximal function in terms of the modulus of continuity of the given function, via integral formulas. Some of the results deduced from these formulas are the following:…
We give a simple proof of the sharp decay of the Fourier-transform of surface-carried measures of two-dimensional generic surfaces. The estimates are applied to prove Strichartz and resolvent estimates for elliptic operators whose…
In this paper, we are concerned with possibly degenerate stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). An $L^2$-theory is introduced, from which we derive the H\"ormander theorem with an analytical approach. With the method of De…
Bennett, Carbery and Tao established nearly optimal $L^1$ trilinear restriction estimates in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ under transversality assumptions only. In this paper we show that the curvature improves the range of exponents, by establishing…
The study of Fourier transforms of probability measures on fractal sets plays an important role in recent research. Faster decay rates are known to yield enhanced results in areas such as metric number theory. This paper focuses on…
A new range of uniform $L^p$ resolvent estimates is obtained in the setting of the flat torus, improving previous results of Bourgain, Shao, Sogge and Yao. The arguments rely on the $\ell^2$-decoupling theorem and multidimensional Weyl sum…
This paper is concerned with Schr\"odinger equations whose principal operators are homogeneous elliptic. When the corresponding level hypersurface is convex, we show the $L^p$-$L^q$ estimate of solution operator in free case. This estimate,…
We consider certain estimates involving averaging operators over curves and hypersurfaces that can be cast into a combinatorial framework. We show that hypersurfaces with nonzero rotational curvature satisfy the usual restricted weak-type…
$L^p$ boundedness of the circular maximal function $\mathcal M_{\mathbb{H}^1}$ on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ has received considerable attentions. While the problem still remains open, $L^p$ boundedness of $\mathcal…
We consider the evolution of a quantity advected by a compressible flow and subject to diffusion. When this quantity is scalar it can be, for instance, the temperature of the flow or the concentration of some pollutants. Because of the…
In this paper we study $L^p-L^r$ estimates of both extension operators and averaging operators associated with the algebraic variety $S=\{x\in {\mathbb F}_q^d: Q(x)=0\}$ where $Q(x)$ is a nondegenerate quadratic form over the finite field…
