Improved resolvent estimates for constant-coefficient elliptic operators in three dimensions (2105.02270v3)

Abstract: We prove new $L^p$-$L^q$-estimates for solutions to elliptic differential operators with constant coefficients in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We use the estimates for the decay of the Fourier transform of particular surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with vanishing Gaussian curvature due to Erd\H{o}s--Salmhofer to derive new Fourier restriction--extension estimates. These allow for constructing distributional solutions in $L^q(\mathbb{R}^3)$ for $L^p$-data via limiting absorption by well-known means.
