Abstract
We proof pointwise bounds for rough Fourier integral operators by the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function. We assume the Fourier integral operators have amplitudes in and phases such that , and assume a non-degeneracy condition on the matrix . The pointwise bound holds when \begin{equation*} m < -\frac{\rho}{2}(n-1) - \frac{\rho}{p} - \frac{n}{p}(1-\rho), \end{equation*} which is known to a be sharp condition on when , modulo the end-point. Making use of this pointwise bound and known boundedness results when the phase satisfies an additional non-degeneracy condition, we go on to prove sparse form bounds for these operators.
