Abstract

This work concerns Lp norms of high energy Laplace eigenfunctions, (−Δg−λ2)ϕλ=0, ‖ϕλ‖L2=1. In 1988, Sogge gave optimal estimates on the growth of ‖ϕλ‖Lp for a general compact Riemannian manifold. The goal of this article is to give general dynamical conditions guaranteeing quantitative improvements in Lp estimates for p>pc, where pc is the critical exponent. We also apply previous results of the authors to obtain quantitative improvements in concrete geometric settings including all product manifolds. These are the first results improving estimates for the Lp growth of eigenfunctions that only require dynamical assumptions. In contrast with previous improvements, our assumptions are local in the sense that they depend only on the geodesics passing through a shrinking neighborhood of a given set in M. Moreover, the article gives a structure theorem for eigenfunctions which saturate the quantitatively improved Lp bound. Modulo an error, the theorem describes these eigenfunctions as finite sums of quasimodes which, roughly, approximate zonal harmonics on the sphere scaled by 1/logλ‾‾‾‾‾√.
