 Derivative-ratio Sobolev gain for a polynomial operator

Suppose a degree-$N$ polynomial obeys $|{\partial }^{\alpha }Q(\xi )|\le C_{\alpha }|\xi {|}^{-\delta |\alpha |}|Q(\xi )|$ at large real frequency, with $\delta >0$. A nonzero constant derivative of total order $N$ gives $|Q|\gtrsim ⟨\xi {⟩}^{\delta N}$. Reciprocal differentiation then bounds ${\partial }^{\alpha }(1/Q)$ by $⟨\xi {⟩}^{-\delta N-\delta |\alpha |}$. The high-frequency reciprocal parametrix kernel therefore gains $\delta N$ Sobolev derivatives. Localize the distribution by a cutoff function equal to one near the target; the commutator lies outside that target and the reciprocal kernel makes its contribution smooth. This proves the displayed gain without demanding global regularity of the original distribution.
