We show that the recent techniques developed to study the Fourier restriction problem apply equally well to the Bochner-Riesz problem. This is achieved via applying a pseudo-conformal transformation and a two-parameter induction-on-scales argument. As a consequence, we improve the Bochner-Riesz problem to the best known range of the Fourier restriction problem in all high dimensions.
For $ 0< lambda < frac{1}2$, let $ B_{lambda }$ be the Bochner-Riesz multiplier of index $ lambda $ on the plane. Associated to this multiplier is the critical index $1 < p_lambda = frac{4} {3+2 lambda } < frac{4}3$. We prove a sparse bound for $ B_{lambda }$ with indices $ (p_lambda , q)$, where $ p_lambda < q < 4$. This is a further quantification of the endpoint weak $L^{p_lambda}$ boundedness of $ B_{lambda }$, due to Seeger. Indeed, the sparse bound immediately implies new endpoint weighted weak type estimates for weights in $ A_1 cap RH_{rho }$, where $ rho > frac4 {4 - 3 p_{lambda }}$.
In the work of S. Petermichl, S. Treil and A. Volberg it was explicitly constructed that the Riesz transforms in any dimension $n geq 2$ can be obtained as an average of dyadic Haar shifts provided that an integral is nonzero. It was shown in the paper that when $n=2$, the integral is indeed nonzero (negative) but for $n geq 3$ the nonzero property remains unsolved. In this paper we show that the integral is nonzero (negative) for $n=3$. The novelty in our proof is the delicate decompositions of the integral for which we can either find their closed forms or prove an upper bound.
It is shown that product BMO of Chang and Fefferman, defined on the product of Euclidean spaces can be characterized by the multiparameter commutators of Riesz transforms. This extends a classical one-parameter result of Coifman, Rochberg, and Weiss, and at the same time extends the work of Lacey and Ferguson and Lacey and Terwilleger on multiparameter commutators with Hilbert transforms. The method of proof requires the real-variable methods throughout, which is new in the multi-parameter context.
For a compact $ d $-dimensional rectifiable subset of $ mathbb{R}^{p} $ we study asymptotic properties as $ Ntoinfty $ of $N$-point configurations minimizing the energy arising from a Riesz $ s $-potential $ 1/r^s $ and an external field in the hypersingular case $ sgeq d$. Formulas for the weak$ ^* $ limit of normalized counting measures of such optimal point sets and the first-order asymptotic values of minimal energy are obtained. As an application, we derive a method for generating configurations whose normalized counting measures converge to a given absolutely continuous measure supported on a rectifiable subset of $ mathbb{R}^{p} $. Results on separation and covering properties of discrete minimizers are given. Our theorems are illustrated with several numerical examples.
