Spectral and Tiling properties of the Unit Cube

Let $\Q=[0,1)^d$ denote the unit cube in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space \Rd and let \T be a discrete subset of \Rd. We show that the exponentials $e_t(x):=exp(i2πtx)$, $t\in\T$ form an othonormal basis for $L^2(\Q)$ if and only if the translates $\Q+t$, $t\in\T$ form a tiling of \Rd.

How large are the spectral gaps?

Let $D$ be a bounded domain in ${\Bbb R}^n$ whose boundary has a Minkowski dimension $α<n$. Suppose that $E_Λ= {\{e^{2 πi x \cdot λ}\}}_{λ\in Λ}$, $Λ$ an infinite discrete subset of ${\Bbb R}^n$, is a frame of exponentials for $L^2(D)$, with frame constants $A,B$, $A \leq B$. Then if $$ R \ge C{(\frac{{B|\partial D|}_α}{A|D|} )}^ {\frac{1}{n-α}},$$ where $C$ depends only on the ambient dimension $n$ and ${|\partial D|}_α$ denotes the Minkowski content, then every cube of sidelength $R$ contains at least one element of $Λ$. We give examples that illustrate the extent to which our estimates are sharp.

Fourier transform, $L^2$ restriction theorem, and scaling

We show, using a Knapp-type homogeneity argument, that the $(L^p, L^2)$ restriction theorem implies a growth condition on the hypersurface in question. We further use this result to show that the optimal $(L^p, L^2)$ restriction theorem implies the sharp isotropic decay rate for the Fourier transform of the Lebesgue measure carried by compact convex finite hypersurfaces.

Convex bodies with a point of curvature do not have Fourier bases

We prove that no smooth symmetric convex body $Ω$ with at least one point of non-vanishing Gaussian curvature can admit an orthogonal basis of exponentials. (The non-symmetric case was proven by Kolountzakis). This is further evidence of Fuglede's conjecture, which states that such a basis is possible if and only if $Ω$ can tile $R^d$ by translations.
