Infraparticle problem, asymptotic fields and Haag-Ruelle theory (Q2448283)

From the conclusions: We have introduced an asymptotic limiting of fields based on averaging over hyperboloids rather than constant time hyperplanes. If a class of fields satisfies a rather slow spacelike decay condition of their (anti-)commutators, then their asymptotic behavior is naturally related to their spectral properties with respect to energy-momentum. In that case the asymptotic behavior admits a condition which generalizes the condition of the existence of a discrete mass hyperboloid in the energy-momentum spectrum in the vacuum representation. The resulting asymptotic fields transfer energy-momentum with sharp Lorentz square, interpreted as mass squared of a particle. With some stronger assumptions on the asymptotic limiting the asymptotic fields satisfy fermionic/bosonic statistics.
