Distances sets that are a shift of the integers and Fourier basis for planar convex sets
The aim of this paper is to prove that if a planar set has a difference
set satisfying for suitable than
has at most 3 elements. This result is motivated by the conjecture that the
disk has not more than 3 orthogonal exponentials. Further, we prove that if
is a set of exponentials mutually orthogonal with respect to any symmetric
convex set in the plane with a smooth boundary and everywhere non-vanishing
curvature, then # (A \cap {[-q,q]}^2) \leq C(K) q where is a constant
depending only on . This extends and clarifies in the plane the result of
Iosevich and Rudnev. As a corollary, we obtain the result from \cite{IKP01} and
\cite{IKT01} that if is a centrally symmetric convex body with a smooth
boundary and non-vanishing curvature, then does not possess an
orthogonal basis of exponentials
Sharp rate of average decay of the Fourier transform of a bounded set
We prove that the spherical mean of the Fourier transform of the
characteristic function of a bounded convex set (without any additional
assumptions) or a bounded set with a C^{3/2} boundary decays at infinity at the
same rate as the Fourier transform of the characteristic function of the ball.Comment: 10 pages. GAFA (to appear
