Abstract

We apply a variant of the multigrade efficient congruencing method to estimate Vinogradov's integral of degree 3 for moments of order 2s, establishing strongly diagonal behaviour for 1 ≤ s ≤ 6. Consequently, the main conjecture is now known to hold for the first time in a case of degree exceeding 2.
