Dirac-Sobolev inequalities and estimates for the zero modes of massless Dirac operators

Abstract

The paper analyses the decay of any zero modes that might exist for a massless Dirac operator H:= \ba \cdot (1/i) \bgrad + Q, where $Q$ is $4 \times 4$-matrix-valued and of order O(|\x|^{-1}) at infinity. The approach is based on inversion with respect to the unit sphere in $\R^3$ and establishing embedding theorems for Dirac-Sobolev spaces of spinors $f$ which are such that $f$ and $Hf$ lie in $(L^p(\R^3))^4, 1\le p<\infty.$Comment: 11 page
