Decouplings for curves and hypersurfaces with nonzero Gaussian curvature

Journal d'Analyse Mathématique Aims and scope

Abstract

We prove two types of results. First we develop the decoupling theory for hypersurfaces with nonzero Gaussian curvature, which extends our earlier work from [4]. As a consequence of this, we obtain sharp (up to ε losses) Strichartz estimates for the hyperbolic Schrödinger equation on the torus. Our second main result is an l 2 decoupling for nondegenerate curves, which has implications for Vinogradov’s mean value theorem.
