Abstract

We investigate L1LL^1\to L^\infty dispersive estimates for the three dimensional Dirac equation with a potential. We also classify the structure of obstructions at the thresholds of the essential spectrum as being composed of a two dimensional space of resonances and finitely many eigenfunctions. We show that, as in the case of the Schr\"odinger evolution, the presence of a threshold obstruction generically leads to a loss of the natural t32t^{-\frac32} decay rate. In this case we show that the solution operator is composed of a finite rank operator that decays at the rate t12t^{-\frac12} plus a term that decays at the rate t32t^{-\frac32}.
