We prove existence and pointwise estimates for the Hertz potentials using a weighted estimate for the wave equation. This is then applied to give weighted estimates for the solutions of the spin-s field equations, for arbitrary half-integer s. In particular, the peeling properties of the free massless spin-s fields are analyzed for initial data in weighted Sobolev spaces with arbitrary, non-integer weights.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2014-02-11T15:38:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35L45", "83C30", "83C60" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic properties", "massless fields", "free massless spin-s fields", "weighted sobolev spaces", "weighted estimate" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer", "journal": "Communications in Mathematical Physics", "year": 2014, "month": "Oct", "volume": 331, "number": 2, "pages": 755 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1224248, "adsabs": "2014CMaPh.331..755A" } } }
