We prove discrete restriction estimates for a broad class of hypersurfaces arising in seminal work of Birch. To do so, we use a variant of Bourgain’s arithmetic version of the Tomas–Stein method and Magyar’s decomposition of the Fourier transform of the indicator function of the integer points on a hypersurface.

We prove Lp norm convergence for (appropriate truncations of) the Fourier series arising from the Dirichlet Laplacian eigenfunctions on three types of triangular domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$: (i) the 45-90-45 triangle, (ii) the equilateral triangle and (iii) the hemiequilateral triangle (i.e. half an equilateral triangle cut along its height). The limitations of our argument to these three types are discussed in light of Lamé’s Theorem and the image method.

Let $M=(\begin {smallmatrix}\rho ^{-1} & 0 \\0 & \rho ^{-1} \\\end {smallmatrix})$ be an expanding real matrix with $0<\rho <1$, and let ${\mathcal D}_n=\{(\begin {smallmatrix} 0\\ 0 \end {smallmatrix}),(\begin {smallmatrix} \sigma _n\\ 0 \end {smallmatrix}),(\begin {smallmatrix} 0\\ \gamma _n \end {smallmatrix})\}$ be digit sets with $\sigma _n,\gamma _n\in \{-1,1\}$ for each $n\ge 1$. Then the infinite convolution

$$ \begin{align*}\mu_{M,\{{\mathcal D}_n\}}=\delta_{M^{-1}{\mathcal D}_1}\ast\delta_{M^{-2}{\mathcal D}_2}\ast\cdots\end{align*} $$

is called a Moran–Sierpinski measure. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for $L^2(\,\mu _{M,\{{\mathcal D}_n\}})$ to admit an infinite orthogonal set of exponential functions. Furthermore, we give the exact cardinality of orthogonal exponential functions in $L^2(\,\mu _{M,\{{\mathcal D}_n\}})$ when $L^2(\,\mu _{M,\{{\mathcal D}_n\}})$ does not admit any infinite orthogonal set of exponential functions based on whether $\rho $ is a trinomial number or not.

In this paper, we study divergence properties of the Fourier series on Cantor-type fractal measure, also called the mock Fourier series. We give a sufficient condition under which the mock Fourier series for doubling spectral measure is divergent on a set of strictly positive measure. In particular, there exists an example of the quarter Cantor measure whose mock Fourier sums are not almost everywhere convergent.

We show that the system of equations

$$ \begin{align*} \sum_{i=1}^{s} (x_{i}^{\,j}-y_{i}^{\,j}) = a_{j} \quad (1 \leqslant j \leqslant k) \end{align*} $$

has appreciably fewer solutions in the subcritical range $s < \tfrac 12k(k+1)$ than its homogeneous counterpart, provided that $a_{\ell } \neq 0$ for some $\ell \leqslant k-1$ . Our methods use Vinogradov’s mean value theorem in combination with a shifting argument.

In this paper, we consider an equivalence relation on the space $AP(\mathbb {R},X)$ of almost periodic functions with values in a prefixed Banach space X. In this context, it is known that the normality or Bochner-type property, which characterizes these functions, is based on the relative compactness of the family of translates. Now, we prove that every equivalence class is sequentially compact and the family of translates of a function belonging to this subspace is dense in its own class, i.e., the condition of almost periodicity of a function $f\in AP(\mathbb {R},X)$ yields that every sequence of translates of f has a subsequence that converges to a function equivalent to f. This extends previous work by the same authors on the case of numerical almost periodic functions.

We obtain a nontrivial upper bound for the multiplicative energy of any sufficiently large subset of a subvariety of a finite algebraic group. We also find some applications of our results to the growth of conjugates classes, estimates of exponential sums, and restriction phenomenon.

In this paper, we completely solve the $L^{2}\to L^{r}$ extension conjecture for the zero radius sphere over finite fields. We also obtain the sharp $L^{p}\to L^{4}$ extension estimate for non-zero radii spheres over finite fields, which improves the previous result of the first and second authors significantly.

We consider the zero-resistivity limit for Hasegawa–Wakatani equations in a cylindrical domain when the initial data are Stepanov almost-periodic in the axial direction. First, we prove the existence of a solution to Hasegawa–Wakatani equations with zero resistivity; second, we obtain uniform a priori estimates with respect to resistivity. Such estimates can be obtained in the same way as for our previous results; therefore, the most important contribution of this paper is the proof of the existence of a local-in-time solution to Hasegawa–Wakatani equations with zero resistivity. We apply the theory of Bohr–Fourier series of Stepanov almost-periodic functions to such a proof.

We study ${{L}^{p}}\to {{L}^{r}}$ restriction estimates for algebraic varieties $V$ in the case when restriction operators act on radial functions in the finite field setting. We show that if the varieties $V$ lie in odd dimensional vector spaces over finite fields, then the conjectured restriction estimates are possible for all radial test functions. In addition, assuming that the varieties $V$ are defined in even dimensional spaces and have few intersection points with the sphere of zero radius, we also obtain the conjectured exponents for all radial test functions.

Let $h_{\vee }^{\infty }\,\left( \text{B} \right)$ and $h_{\vee }^{\infty }\,\left( \text{B} \right)$ be the spaces of harmonic functions in the unit disk and multidimensional unit ball admitting a two-sided radial majorant $v\left( r \right)$. We consider functions $v$ that fulfill a doubling condition. In the two-dimensional case let

$$u\left( r{{e}^{i\theta }},\xi \right)\,=\,\sum\limits_{j=0}^{\infty }{\left( {{a}_{j0}}{{\xi }_{j0}}{{r}^{j}}\,\cos \,j\theta \,+\,{{a}_{j1}}{{\xi }_{j1}}{{r}^{j}}\,\sin \,j\theta \right)}$$

where $\xi \,=\,\left\{ {{\xi }_{ji}} \right\}$ is a sequence of random subnormal variables and ${{a}_{ji}}$ are real. In higher dimensions we consider series of spherical harmonics. We will obtain conditions on the coefficients ${{a}_{ji}}$ that imply that $u$ is in $h_{\vee }^{\infty }\,\left( \text{B} \right)$ almost surely. Our estimate improves previous results by Bennett, Stegenga, and Timoney, and we prove that the estimate is sharp. The results for growth spaces can easily be applied to Bloch-type spaces, and we obtain a similar characterization for these spaces that generalizes results by Anderson, Clunie, and Pommerenke and by Guo and Liu.

We establish asymptotics for Christoffel functions associated with multivariate orthogonal polynomials. The underlying measures are assumed to be regular on a suitable domain. In particular, this is true if they are positive a.e. on a compact set that admits analytic parametrization. As a consequence, we obtain asymptotics for Christoffel functions for measures on the ball and simplex under far more general conditions than previously known. As another consequence, we establish universality type limits in the bulk in a variety of settings.

We provide a proof of a conjecture by Jakobson, Nadirashvili, and Toth stating that on an $n$-dimensional flat torus ${{\mathbb{T}}^{n}}$, and the Fourier transform of squares of the eigenfunctions ${{\left| \varphi \lambda \right|}^{2}}$ of the Laplacian have uniform ${{l}^{n}}$ bounds that do not depend on the eigenvalue $\lambda $. The proof is a generalization of an argument by Jakobson, et al. for the lower dimensional cases. These results imply uniform bounds for semiclassical limits on ${{\mathbb{T}}^{n+2}}$. We also prove a geometric lemma that bounds the number of codimension-one simplices satisfying a certain restriction on an $n$-dimensional sphere ${{S}^{n}}\,\left( \text{ }\!\!\lambda\!\!\text{ } \right)$ of radius $\sqrt{\lambda }$, and we use it in the proof.

In this paper we study the extension problem, the averaging problem, and the generalized Erdős–Falconer distance problem associated with arbitrary homogeneous varieties in three dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. In the case when the varieties do not contain any plane passing through the origin, we obtain the best possible results on the aforementioned three problems. In particular, our result on the extension problem modestly generalizes the result by Mockenhaupt and Tao who studied the particular conical extension problem. In addition, investigating the Fourier decay on homogeneous varieties enables us to give complete mapping properties of averaging operators. Moreover, we improve the size condition on a set such that the cardinality of its distance set is nontrivial.

For a general vector field we exhibit two Hilbert spaces, namely the space of so called closed functions and the space of exact functions and we calculate the codimension of the space of exact functions inside the larger space of closed functions. In particular we provide a new approach for the known cases: the Glauber field and the second-order Ginzburg–Landau field and for the case of the fourth-order Ginzburg–Landau field.
