Generalized Maximum Modulus Principle for cyclic groups

At least 2 years old · documented by

Fix N>2N>2 and d≥1d\geq 1. Let ΩN\Omega_N be the group of NNth roots of unity, and let f:ΩNn→Cf:\Omega_N^n\to\mathbf{C} have degree at most dd and local degree at most N−1N-1, so that

f(z)=∑α∈{0,1,…,N−1}n:∣α∣≤daαzα.f(z)=\sum_{\alpha\in\{0,1,\dots,N-1\}^n:\lvert\alpha\rvert\leq d}a_{\alpha}z^{\alpha}.

Generalized Maximum Modulus Principle. There exists C(d,N)>0C(d,N)>0, independent of nn, such that for every n≥1n\geq 1,

max⁡z∈conv⁡(ΩN)n∣f(z)∣≤C(d,N)max⁡z∈ΩNn∣f(z)∣.\max_{z\in\operatorname{conv}(\Omega_N)^n}\lvert f(z)\rvert\leq C(d,N)\max_{z\in\Omega_N^n}\lvert f(z)\rvert.

For N=∞N=\infty and N=2N=2 the analogous inequality is trivial with constant 11, whereas the case 2<N<∞2<N<\infty is described as highly non-trivial and motivates the conjecture.
