Local smoothing in three dimensions

Resolves Sogge's local smoothing conjecture for the Euclidean wave equation in three spatial dimensions. The estimate holds throughout the full strict range 2<p<∞2\lt p\lt \infty, with Sobolev regularity above max⁡{0,1−3/p}\max\{0,1-3/p\}. In particular, the critical L3 estimate holds with every positive Sobolev loss.
