Abstract:
If $S$ is a smooth compact surface in $\mathbb {R}^3$ with strictly positive second fundamental form, and $E_S$ is the corresponding extension operator, then we prove that for all $p > 3.25$, $\| E_S f\|_{L^p(\mathbb {R}^3)} \le C(p,S) \| f \|_{L^\infty (S)}$. The proof uses polynomial partitioning arguments from incidence geometry.References
