The Bohnenblust-Hille inequality for homogeneous polynomials is hypercontractive. (English) Zbl 1235.32001
The main goal of this nice and important paper is to obtain that the Bohnenblust-Hille inequality is hypercontractive. The Bohnenblust-Hille inequality says that the $$\ell^{\frac{2m}{m+1}}$$-norm of the coefficients of an $$m$$-homogeneous polynomial on $$\mathbb{C}^n$$ is bounded above by the supremum norm of this polynomial times a constant which does not depend on $$n$$. The authors show in fact that this constant can be taken to be $$C^m$$ for some $$C>1$$. This result considerably improves the known bounds, see [L. A. Harris, Analyse fonct. Appl., C. r. Colloq. d’Analyse, Rio de Janeiro 1972, 145–163 (1975; Zbl 0315.46040); H. Queffélec, J. Anal. 3, 43–60 (1995; Zbl 0881.11068)] and leads to some interesting consequences. For instance, the authors obtain an asymptotically optimal estimate for the $$n$$-dimensional Bohr radius, which was introduced and studied by H. P. Boas and D. Khavinson [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 125, No. 10, 2975–2979 (1997; Zbl 0888.32001)], as well as a refined version of a striking theorem of S. V. Konyagin and H. Queffélec [Real Anal. Exch. 27, No. 1, 155–175 (2002; Zbl 1026.42011)] on Dirichlet polynomials that was recently sharpened by R. de la Bretèche [Acta Arith. 134, No. 2, 141–148 (2008; Zbl 1302.11068)]. In the same spirit of the latter, the authors give the following stronger version of a result of R. Balasubramanian, B. Calado and H. Queffélec [Stud. Math. 175, No. 3, 285–304 (2006; Zbl 1110.30001)]: they prove that $$1/\sqrt{2}$$ is the supremum of the set of real numbers $$c$$ such that
$\sum_{n\geq 1}| a_n| n^{-\frac{1}{2}}\text{exp}\Big\{c\sqrt{\log n\log \log n}\Big\}<\infty$
for every ordinary Dirichlet series $$f(s)=\sum_{n\geq 1}a_nn^{-s}$$ for which $$\sup\{| f(\sigma+it)| :\;\sigma>0\}<\infty.$$
