The positive-curvature restriction conjecture under geometric control

Let (M,g)(M,g) be a Riemannian manifold and let Σ\boldsymbol{\Sigma} be an interior hypersurface with positive definite second fundamental form satisfying the transversal geometric control condition, denoted T\mathcal{T}GCC. Let (λ,ϕ)(\lambda,\phi) satisfy the eigenfunction equation (Δgλ2)ϕ=0(-\Delta_g-\lambda^2)\phi=0. Controlled restriction conjecture. There exist C,c,λ0>0C,c,\lambda_0>0 such that, for all (λ,ϕ)[λ0,)×L2(M)(\lambda,\phi)\in[\lambda_0,\infty)\times L^2(M),

ϕL2(M)CϕΣL2(Σ),ϕL2(M)Cλ1νϕΣL2(Σ).\|\phi\|_{L^2(M)}\leq C\|\phi|_{\Sigma}\|_{L^2(\Sigma)},\qquad \|\phi\|_{L^2(M)}\leq C\|\lambda^{-1}\partial_\nu\phi|_{\Sigma}\|_{L^2(\Sigma)}.

The preceding theorem establishes the corresponding estimate using both traces under T\mathcal{T}GCC, while this stronger pair of single-trace estimates is proposed in the source and remains open.
