The cancellation conjecture for Riesz potentials on constrained function spaces

Let dd and \ell be positive integers, let Sd1S^{d-1} be the unit sphere in Rd\mathbb{R}^d, and let G(,k)G(\ell,k) denote the Grassmannian of kk-dimensional linear subspaces of C\mathbb{C}^{\ell}. Let Ω:Sd1G(,k)\Omega:S^{d-1}\to G(\ell,k) be smooth, and define

W={gL1(Rd,C) | g^(ξ)Ω(ξξ) for every ξRd{0}}.\mathfrak{W}=\left\{g\in L_1(\mathbb{R}^d,\mathbb{C}^{\ell})\ \middle|\ \widehat{g}(\xi)\in\Omega\left(\frac{\xi}{|\xi|}\right)\text{ for every }\xi\in\mathbb{R}^d\setminus\{0\}\right\}.

For α(0,d)\alpha\in(0,d), the cancellation conjecture. The Riesz potential Iα\operatorname{I}_{\alpha} maps W\mathfrak{W} to Ld/(dα)L_{d/(d-\alpha)} if and only if

ξSd1Ω(ξ)={0}.\bigcap_{\xi\in S^{d-1}}\Omega(\xi)=\{0\}.

This proposes that the Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequality for the constrained space W\mathfrak{W} is characterized exactly by the cancellation condition that no nonzero vector belongs to every fiber of Ω\Omega.
