A natural approach is: take a sequence with f n X = 1 and Tf n Y A and show that f n converges in X. Problem: many interesting operators arise from physics and have many symmetries. Non compact groups of symmetries are hard to fight.

33 The case of f n. Fix now 0 f n with f n p = 1 and T f n 4 T. If f is the nonincreasing rearrangement of f then T f 4 T f 4. Thus f n is a nonincreasing extremizing sequence.

96 Possible extension. Generalize this proof to the k-plane transform inequalities with no radial restriction, i.e. prove that the extremizing sequences converge modulo the affine group. This was proved by Christ for k = d 1. This is much harder than this talk because of the size of the group of symmetries.
