Convolution with measures on flat curves in low dimensions (Q990168)

Let \(\gamma\) be a curve in \(\mathbb R^d\) given by \[ \gamma (t)=(t, \frac {t^2}{2}, \dots, \frac{t^{d-1}}{(d-1)!}, \phi (t)), \] where \(\phi \in C^d(a,b)\), where \(\phi^{(j)}(t)>0\) for \(t \in (a,b)\) and \(j=0, 1, 2, \dots, d\), and where \(\phi^{(d)}\) is nondecreasing. Such curves are termed \textit{simple}. In the paper under review the author proves \(L^p \to L^q\) convolution estimates for the affine arclength measure \(\lambda\) on \(\gamma\), given by \( d\lambda = \phi^{(d)}(t)^{2/(d^2+d)}dt\), when \(d=2, 3, 4\). For \(d=2, 3\), he also establishes certain related Lorentz space estimates.
