Sharp exponential localization for solutions of the Perturbed Dirac Equation

Analysis of PDEs 2019-09-13 v2

Abstract

We determine the largest non-trivial rate of exponential decay at infinity for solutions to the Dirac equation \begin{equation*} \mathcal{D}_n \psi + \mathbb{V} \psi = 0 \quad \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^n, \end{equation*} being Dn\mathcal{D}_n the massless Dirac operator in dimension n2n\geq 2 and V\mathbb{V} a (possibly non-Hermitian) matrix-valued perturbation such that V(x)xϵ|\mathbb{V}(x)| \sim |x|^{-\epsilon} at infinity, for <ϵ<1-\infty < \epsilon < 1. Moreover, we show that our results are sharp for n=2,3n =2,3, providing explicit examples of solutions that have the prescripted decay, in presence of a potential with the related behaviour at infinity.
