Abstract: We prove local smoothing and weighted Strichartz estimates for the Dirac equation with a Aharonov-Bohm potential. The proof relies on an explicit representation of the solution built in terms of spectral projections.

Review text

The authors prove local smoothing and weighted Strichartz estimates for the Dirac equation with a Aharonov-Bohm potential. Their proof is inspired by \textit{F. Cacciafesta} and \textit{É. Séré} [J. Funct. Anal. 271, No. 8, 2339--2358 (2016; Zbl 1349.35316)] and relies on an explicit representation of the solution in terms of spectral projections. In more detail, the authors consider the Dirac Hamiltonian in the Aharonov-Bohm magnetic field, which is given by \[ \mathcal{D}_A^m(A)=\sigma_3m+\sigma_1(p_1+A^1)+\sigma_2(p_2+A^2), \] where \(m\geq 0\), \(p_j=i\partial_j\), the \(\sigma_j\)'s denote the standard Pauli matrices and the magnetic potential \(A(x)=(A^1(x),A^2(x))\) is given by \[ A(x)=\alpha\left(-\frac{x_2}{|x|^2},\frac{x_1}{|x|^2}\right). \] Restricting themselves to the massless case (\(m=0\)) and denoting the corresponding Hamiltonian by \(\mathcal{D}_A\), the authors study dispersive properties of the flow associated to \(\mathcal{D}_A\). That is, they study the Cauchy problem \[ i\partial_t u =\mathcal{D}_A u, \;\;\;\;u(0,x)=f(x), \] where \(u(t,x):\mathbb{R}_t\times\mathbb{R}_x^2\rightarrow\mathbb{C}^2\). The first main result of the paper is a local smoothing estimate for solutions of this problem. The second main result is a local in time estimate, which in the context of the wave equation is known as KSS estimate. As a consequence of these two results, the authors are able to prove weighted Strichartz estimates.
