The one-third time-decay conjecture for the periodically forced Dirac propagator
The one-third time-decay conjecture for the periodically forced Dirac propagator
Consider the periodically forced Dirac equation with mass , and let denote its -period propagator. For , write . One-third time-decay conjecture. For every there exists such that
The conjecture is motivated by numerically observed inflection points of the dispersion relation at arbitrarily large Fourier momenta, where the third derivative becomes small. Van der Corput estimates suggest the decay, while the additional of smoothing is attributed to the dyadic partition argument; the supplied source does not state whether this conjecture has been resolved.
