Signature-refined local smoothing conjecture for Fourier integral operators
Signature-refined local smoothing conjecture for Fourier integral operators
Let be a Fourier integral operator on with symbol of order , satisfying H1) and H2). Suppose that each associated cone has signature , meaning that the absolute difference between the numbers of positive and negative principal curvatures is , where . Define
Signature-refined local smoothing conjecture. There is local smoothing for , meaning that the local smoothing estimate holds for every , for all . The conjecture refines the general FIO threshold according to the signature of the cone; the supplied text presents it as a conjectural consequence of modified Bourgain examples, with no resolution stated.
