The Stationary Maxwell-Dirac Equations

arXiv:math-ph/0112037

Abstract

The Maxwell-Dirac equations are the equations for electronic matter, the "classical" theory underlying QED. In this article we examine the stationary Maxwell-Dirac equations under weak regularity and decay assumptions. We prove that: There are no embedded eigenvalues in the essential spectrum, . If then the Dirac field components (and their derivatives) decay exponentially at spatial infinity. If then the system is "asymptotically" static and decays exponentially if the total charge is non-zero.
