Massive scalar-field v5/6v^{-5/6} tail conjecture

Let H+\mathcal{H}^+ be the event horizon and let vv be the standard advanced time null coordinate. Massive scalar-field tail conjecture. For smooth, regular, generic admissible data with a non-empty black hole, in the massive case m20m^2\neq0 and q0Rq_0\in\mathbb{R},

ϕH+(v)sin(mv+o(v))v5/6,DvϕH+(v)sin(mv+o(v))v5/6.|\phi|_{\mathcal{H}^+}(v)\sim |\sin(mv+o(v))|v^{-5/6},\qquad |D_v\phi|_{\mathcal{H}^+}(v)\sim |\sin(mv+o(v))|v^{-5/6}.

The claim is based on heuristic and numerical studies for uncharged massive fields and arguments for charged massive fields; the general nonlinear result remains open.
