The endpoint fourth-moment conjecture for quadratic Weyl sums

About 5 years old · traced to

For N∈NN\in\mathbb N, define the quadratic Weyl sum

SN(x)=∑n=1Ne2πin2xn1/2.S_N(x)=\sum_{n=1}^N \frac{e^{2\pi i n^2 x}}{n^{1/2}}.

Endpoint fourth-moment conjecture. The conjecture is

∥SN∥4≃(log⁡N)3/4.\lVert S_N\rVert_4\simeq (\log N)^{3/4}.

The preceding theorem establishes the bounds (log⁡N)1/2≲∥SN∥4≲(log⁡N)3/4(\log N)^{1/2}\lesssim \lVert S_N\rVert_4\lesssim (\log N)^{3/4} at the endpoint, so the conjecture asserts that the upper bound gives the correct order of growth.
