Conjecture on oscillations of the real-line fractional KdV Green's function

Let c>0c>0 and α(2,4]\alpha\in(2,4], and let GRG_{\mathbb{R}} denote the Green's function on the real line R\mathbb{R}.

Real-line Green's function conjecture. For every c>0c>0 and every α(2,4]\alpha\in(2,4], GRG_{\mathbb{R}} is not strictly positive on R\mathbb{R} and is not monotonically decreasing on (0,)(0,\infty). It has a finite number of zeros on R\mathbb{R} if α(2,4)\alpha\in(2,4) and an infinite number of zeros if α=4\alpha=4.

This conjecture concerns the oscillatory behavior of the real-line Green's function that governs interactions of strongly localized waves. It is presented as a consequence of the preceding periodic-domain conjecture under the rescaling limit cc\to\infty; no resolution is supplied in the source.
