Optimal Sobolev regularity of a class of Fourier integral operators

Abstract: We discuss a class of Fourier integral operators that arises from averaging, and derive sharp L^p-Sobolev regularity properties of these operators for large values of p. Our results make use of a deep estimate of Wolff associated to light cones. This is joint work with Andreas Seeger.
