Abstract:
A classical result due to Kenig, Ruiz and Sogge, states that the resolvent operator for the Euclidean Laplacian (-Delta-z)^(-1) is bounded from Lp to Lq for a certain range of indices p,q. The operator norm depends on the frequency z, as dictated by scaling, and it is actually independent of z for suitable values of p and q, hence the `uniform` tag. In view of their applications to Spectral Theory, Harmonic Analysis and Nonlinear PDEs, it is interesting to extend these estimates to more general operators beyond the Laplacian. In this joint work with Zhiqing Yin we consider a general electromagnetic Laplacian and, under suitable decay assumptions on the potentials, we recover the same range of indices as in the free case. As an application, we deduce a `magnetic` restriction estimate of Tomas-Stein type.
