Sharp $\ell^p$-Improving Estimates for Fixed-Radius Discrete Spherical Averages
Let $d\geq 4$ and let $R>0$. When $d=4$, assume that $R^2\in\mathbb{N}\setminus 4\mathbb{N}$; when $d\geq 5$, let $R^2\in\mathbb{N}$ be arbitrary. We prove the fixed-radius estimate $$\|A_R f\|_{\ell^{p'}(\mathbb{Z}^d)}\leq C_{d,p,\varepsilon}R^{-d(2/p-1)+\varepsilon}\|f\|_{\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^d)}$$ for $(d+2)/d\leq p\le...
