Local smoothing and Hardy spaces for Fourier integral operators


Abstract in English

We obtain new local smoothing estimates for the Euclidean wave equation on $mathbb{R}^{n}$, by replacing the space of initial data by a Hardy space for Fourier integral operators. This improves the bounds in the local smoothing conjecture for $pgeq 2(n+1)/(n-1)$, and complements them for $2<p<2(n+1)/(n-1)$. These estimates are invariant under application of Fourier integral operators.
