HRT counterexamples with exponential tails
Abstract
We build on the recent breakthrough of Faulhuber, Petersen, van Velthoven, and Voigtlaender that disproved the HRT conjecture with a Schwartz function and a $12$-point configuration. We give a human-readable treatment of their mechanism and find HRT counterexample functions with exponential (or faster) decay. By a result of Bownik and Speegle, this is the fastest possible decay for an HRT counterexample, up to a logarithmic factor in the exponent.
