Sharp constant for a $k$-plane transform inequality

Abstract

The $k$ -plane transform $ℛ_{k}$ acting on test functions on $ℝ^{d}$ satisfies a dilation-invariant $L^{p} \to L^{q}$ inequality for some exponents $p, q$ . We will make explicit some extremizers and the value of the best constant for any value of $k$ and $d$ , solving the endpoint case of a conjecture of Baernstein and Loss. This extends their own result for $k = 2$ and Christ’s result for $k = d - 1$ .
