Problem. For \(d\ge 2\), \(1<p<\infty\), and \(\delta>\max\{d|1/p-1/2|-1/2,0\}\), are the Euclidean Bochner-Riesz multipliers \(S_R^\delta\), defined by the Fourier multiplier \((1-|\xi|^2/R^2)_+^\delta\), bounded on \(L^p(\mathbb R^d)\) uniformly for \(R>0\)?

Definitions and notation

1Context

Known frontier: The conjecture is known in dimension two and in substantial higher-dimensional subranges derived from restriction and decoupling estimates. Open boundary: The full sharp strong-type range in dimensions d≥3 remains open.

2Problem setup

Definition 1 (Bochner-Riesz multiplier). The operator with multiplier (1−|ξ|²/R²)_+^δ.

Definition 2 (uniform L^p boundedness). sup_R ||S_R^δ f||_p≤C||f||_p with C independent of R.

Remark 1. The stated threshold is forced by standard examples and is expected to be sufficient. Endpoint formulations are excluded so the packet has one clean strong-type target.

3What counts as a solution

  • Prove the uniform estimate throughout the stated d,p,δ range.
  • Or give parameters in the range and an L^p counterexample.
