Polynomial Bohnenblust--Hille bounds for product of cyclic groups

Fix an integer $K\ge2$, and let $C_K^n =\{(e^{\frac{2\pi ij}{K}})_{j=0}^{K-1}\}^n$ be the product of cyclic groups of order $K$. For a Fourier character $\chi_\alpha$, let $s(\alpha)$ be the number of active coordinates. We give a self-contained proposed proof that the dimension-free Bohnenblust--Hille constants governed by interaction order grow polynomially: if $p_d=2d/(d+1)$ and \[ \gamma_2=\frac12, \qquad \gamma_K=\frac{K\log(K-1)}{4(K-2)}\quad(K\ge3), \] then the $\ell^{p_d}$ norm of Fourier coefficients $\{\hat f(\alpha)\}$ is bounded by $L^\infty$ norm of $f$ multiplied by $C(K) d^{4\gamma_K+5}$. The constant $C(K)$ is actually at most of the order $K^{5/2}$.
