Abstract: We study Lp-Sobolev improving for averaging operators Agamma given by convolution with a compactly supported smooth density mugamma on a non-degenerate curve. In particular, in 4 dimensions we show that Agamma maps Lp(mathbbR4) the Sobolev space L1/pp(mathbbR4) for all 6<p<infty. This implies the complete optimal range of Lp-Sobolev estimates, except possibly for certain endpoint cases. The proof relies on decoupling inequalities for a family of cones which decompose the wave front set of mugamma. In higher dimensions, a new non-trivial necessary condition for Lp(mathbbRn)oL1/pp(mathbbRn) boundedness is obtained, which motivates a conjectural range of estimates.
