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 $t^{-\\frac32}$ decay rate. In this case we show that the solution operator is composed of a finite rank operator that decays at the rate $t^{-\\frac12}$ plus a term that decays at the rate $t^{-\\frac32}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-09-16T18:15:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dispersive estimates", "threshold energies", "dirac operators", "dimensional dirac equation", "finite rank operator" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
