Laptev–Safronov conjecture for complex Schrödinger operators

Let d2d\geq2 and q(d/2,d]q\in(d/2,d]. Let VV be a bounded complex-valued potential on Rd\mathbb{R}^d, and let zz be an eigenvalue of ΔV-\Delta-V with zC[0,)z\in\mathbb{C}\setminus[0,\infty). Here Ad,qBA\lesssim_{d,q}B means that ACd,qBA\leq C_{d,q}B for a constant depending only on dd and qq. Laptev–Safronov conjecture. Every such eigenvalue satisfies

zqd2d,qRdVq.|z|^{q-\frac{d}{2}}\lesssim_{d,q}\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}|V|^q.

This conjecture seeks a complex-potential analogue of the Keller–Lieb–Thirring bound that remains uniform for eigenvalues approaching the positive real axis. The statement is attributed to Laptev and Safronov; the supplied source does not indicate whether it has been resolved.
