The project is on the restriction theory in Fourier analysis. This field is concerns functions with Fourier transform (frequencies) supported (non-zero at most) on some curved objects such as a sphere or a cone. Such functions appear naturally in several areas of science and mathematics: in the study of Schrödinger equations, wave equations and number theory. For instance, a solution to the linear wave equation can be represented as a function with Fourier transform supported on a cone. Investigating these functions allows one to understand how waves evolve in time. In number theory, one can count the number of integer solutions to some Diophantine equations (polynomial equations with integer coefficients) by estimating such functions. Namely, if the corresponding functions are concentrated, then one expects the Diophantine equation to have many integer solutions. And an upper bound on the number of solutions can be given in terms of how spread out the functions are. This project will be focused on how the curvature of the Fourier support prevents the functions from being concentrated.The work will be concentrated on oscillatory integrals and related to Falconer's conjecture. The latter is an unsolved question concerning the sets of Euclidean distances between points in compact d-dimensional spaces. The projects on oscillatory integrals concern the restriction conjecture, the Hormander operator, and decoupling questions. For the restriction conjecture, Stein's restriction conjecture will be studied in higher dimensions and in dimension three. For the Hörmander operator the Bochner-Riesz conjecture will be investigated by considering it as a Hörmander operator not satisfying Bourgain's "generic failure" condition. Work will be done on the dimension of radial projections with applications surrounding Falconer's conjecture.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个项目是关于傅立叶分析中的限制理论。这个领域是关于傅里叶变换（频率）支持（最多非零）在一些弯曲的物体，如球体或圆锥体的功能。此类函数自然出现在科学和数学的多个领域：薛定谔方程、波动方程和数论的研究中。例如，线性波动方程的解可以表示为具有支撑在圆锥上的傅里叶变换的函数。研究这些函数可以让人们了解波是如何随时间演化的。在数论中，人们可以通过估计这些函数来计算某些丢番图方程（具有整数系数的多项式方程）的整数解的数量。也就是说，如果相应的函数是集中的，那么人们期望丢番图方程有许多整数解。解的个数的上限可以根据函数的展开程度来给出。本专题将着重于傅立叶支集的曲率如何防止函数集中。工作将集中在振荡积分和与法尔科纳猜想有关的问题上。后者是一个未解决的问题，涉及的集合的欧几里德距离点在紧凑的d维空间。关于振荡积分的项目涉及限制猜想、Hormander算子和解耦问题。对于限制猜想，我们将在高维空间和三维空间中研究Stein的限制猜想。对于Hörmander算子，Bochner-Riesz猜想将通过将其视为不满足Bourgain的“一般失效”条件的Hörmander算子来研究。工作将围绕法尔科纳的猜想的应用程序的径向投影的尺寸上完成。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
