Foschi's Gaussian maximizer conjecture for the paraboloid extension inequality

Let d3d\geq 3. The quantity Sd\mathcal S_d denotes the supremum in the relevant paraboloid extension inequality over functions ψ\psi on Rd\mathbb{R}^d. Foschi's Gaussian maximizer conjecture. The supremum defining Sd\mathcal S_d is attained for

ψ(x)=ex2/2,xRd.\psi(x)=e^{-x^2/2},\qquad x\in\mathbb{R}^d.

This conjecture concerns the extremizers for the sharp paraboloid extension inequality. The cited work establishes the corresponding cases d=1d=1 and d=2d=2, while the assertion for all d3d\geq 3 is presented here as unproved.
