At first glance this problem appears trivial, but upon further examination we obtain interesting, nontrivial bounds. As an application we give a new estimate for the discrete spherical maximal function in four dimensions. We conclude by introducing a principle to describe the analogy with Littman's result for continuous spherical averages.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-04-24T21:09:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "discrete spherical averages", "problem appears trivial", "discrete spherical maximal function", "first glance", "nontrivial bounds" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
