These results are employed to deduce a refinement of a previous result of Mockenhaupt Seeger and Sogge \\cite{MSS-jams} on the local smoothing property for Fourier integral operators, which arise naturally in the study of wave equations on compact Riemannian manifolds. The proof is an adaptation of the bilinear approach of Tao and Vargas \\cite{Tao-Vargas-II}, %as well as Garrig\\'os and Seeger \\cite{GaSe09}, and based on bilinear oscillatory integral estimates of Lee \\cite{Lee-JFA}.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-01-06T02:15:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fourier integral operators", "variable coefficient square functions", "local smoothing", "bilinear oscillatory integral estimates", "compact riemannian manifolds" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
