A Bochner-Riesz mean of order and radius
is the Fourier multiplier
initially defined for a Schwartz function , where
is the positive part.
The Fourier transform here uses
. The multiplier tapers to zero at the boundary of the frequency ball.
The order-zero convention instead uses its characteristic
function.
The Bochner-Riesz conjecture concerns uniform operator norms as varies. The corresponding maximal operator
is
