Improved Spectral Cluster Bounds for Orthonormal Systems

Abstract

We improve Frank-Sabin's work concerning the spectral cluster bounds for orthonormal systems at $p=\infty$, on the flat torus and spaces of nonpositive sectional curvature, by shrinking the spectral band from $[\lambda^{2}, (\lambda+1)^{2})$ to $[\lambda^{2}, (\lambda+\epsilon(\lambda))^{2})$, where $\epsilon(\lambda)$ is a function of $\lambda$ that goes to $0$ as $\lambda$ goes to $\infty$. In achieving this, we invoke the method developed by Bourgain-Shao-Sogge-Yao.
