Statement (paper)

For N≥2N\ge2, 0<r≤10<r\le1 and every x0∈Rnx_0\in\RR^n, ∥U(t)ΠNf∥Lp(I×B(x0,r))≲min⁡{1,(Nr)n/p} L(Nr)A∥f∥p. \|U(t)\Pi_N f\|_{L^p(I\times B(x_0,r))} \lesssim \min\{1,(Nr)^{n/p}\}\,L(Nr)^A\|f\|_p .

In plain English

For N≥2N\ge2, 0<r≤10<r\le1 and any center x0x_0, the LpL^p norm of U(t)ΠNfU(t)\Pi_N f over I×B(x0,r)I\times B(x_0,r) is bounded by min⁡{1,(Nr)n/p} L(Nr)A∥f∥p\min\{1,(Nr)^{n/p}\}\,L(Nr)^A\|f\|_p up to a constant, so the bound improves with the size of the ball.

Why it's here

The lemma localizes the frequency-annulus estimate to a ball of radius rr, showing a gain of (Nr)n/p(Nr)^{n/p} when Nr<1Nr<1 and only a L(Nr)AL(Nr)^A loss otherwise. The proof splits into the trivial small-radius case, a comparison on radial shells with the profile operator T\mathcal T (whose LpL^p bound comes from the main theorem), and a sum over shells with a negligible remainder. The ball estimate is then used for the angular-band bounds and the angular envelope lemma.
Classified routine:
A localization of the paper's main annulus local smoothing theorem to small balls. It combines a trivial Bernstein/volume bound for Nr<1Nr<1 with a decomposition into radial shells compared against the profile operator, which is standard bookkeeping following from the main theorem.
