Exponential bounds conjecture for the tempered fractional kernel equivalence factor

From papers

Let nn and ss be the dimension and fractional-order parameters, let x,y\boldsymbol{x},\boldsymbol{y} be points in the underlying Euclidean space, and let λ\lambda be the tempering parameter. The function F(n,s,λ,xy)F(n,s,\lambda,|\boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}|) is the factor appearing in the equivalence kernel for the tempered fractional operators. Exponential bounds conjecture. There are positive constants Bn,s\underline{B}_{n,s} and Bn,s\overline{B}_{n,s} such that

Bn,seλxyF(n,s,λ,xy)Bn,seλxy.\underline{B}_{n,s}e^{-\lambda|\boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}|}\leq F(n,s,\lambda,|\boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}|)\leq \overline{B}_{n,s}e^{-\lambda|\boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}|}.

These bounds would establish that the unified tempered fractional operator is asymptotically consistent with the tempered fractional Laplacian. Together with non-negativity of FF as a function of xy|\boldsymbol{x}-\boldsymbol{y}|, they would also support well-posedness of the corresponding exterior-value problem; the conjecture is supported by numerical evidence, while a full proof is left for future work.
