- The restriction, Bochner–Riesz, and local smoothing conjectures each imply the Kakeya conjecture.
Supports. An expository article by a leading harmonic analyst for the ICM proceedings. It states the implications as known results, explains the mechanism (wave-packet decompositions that compress into Kakeya-like configurations, in the manner of Fefferman's 1971 disk multiplier counterexample), and points to surveys for the proofs. It also adds a fourth conjecture, Montgomery's in analytic number theory, to the list of conjectures that imply Kakeya. Sep 15, 2026

In the decades that followed, many further connections of this type were unearthed, in which the objects being analyzed contained “wave packets” that could point in different directions due to some “curvature” in the problem could end up being compressed into a Kakeya-like configuration, thus leading to unwanted behavior. Because of this, many long-standing conjectures in harmonic analysis, number theory, and partial differential equations were shown to imply the Kakeya conjecture, in that any counterexample to the Kakeya conjecture could be converted to a counterexample to these latter conjectures. Some examples include:
