Stability for Strichartz inequalities: Existence of minimizers

Abstract: We study the quantitative stability associated to the adjoint Fourier restriction inequality, focusing on the paraboloid and two-dimension sphere cases. We show that these Strichartz-stability inequalities admit minimizers attaining their sharp constants, on the condition that these sharp constants are strictly smaller than the corresponding spectral-gap constants. Furthermore, for the two-dimension sphere case, we obtain the existence of minimizers.
