Revision 30 as rendered

Settled for n = 2 (Davies, 1971) and n = 3 (Wang and Zahl, 2025), and over finite fields (Dvir, 2008, with a startlingly short polynomial-method proof). The general Euclidean case is open. It sits under many problems in harmonic analysis, including restriction and Bochner–Riesz.

What would settle it

Lean statement in formal-conjectures
