We extend a result of the second author [27, Theorem 1.1] to dimensions d≥3 which relates the size of Lp-norms of eigenfunctions for 22(d+1)/d−1 to the amount of L2-mass in shrinking tubes about unit-length geodesics. The proof uses bilinear oscillatory integral estimates of Lee [22] and a variable coefficient variant of an "ε removal lemma" of Tao and Vargas [35]. We also use Hörmander's [20] L2 oscillatory integral theorem and the Cartan–Hadamard theorem to show that, under the assumption of nonpositive curvature, the L2-norm of eigenfunctions eλ​ over unit-length tubes of width λ−1/2 goes to zero. Using our main estimate, we deduce that, in this case, the Lp-norms of eigenfunctions for the above range of exponents is relatively small. As a result, we can slightly improve the known lower bounds for nodal sets in dimensions d≥3 of Colding and Minicozzi [10] in the special case of (variable) nonpositive curvature.
