The paper develops a framework to construct Gibbs measures for a zonal Dirac equation on the sphere with a Hartree-type nonlinearity. By exploiting the warped-product structure of $\mathbb S^d$ and a zonal spectral basis, it defines a Wick-renormalized, truncation-dependent dynamics and proves the associated energy and nonlinearity converge in an appropriate probabilistic sense. It then uses tightness and Skorokhod representations to obtain a random weak solution whose law is a Gibbs measure $\rho_\infty$, shown as the limit of invariant truncated measures, though invariance of the limit is not established due to nonuniqueness. This work extends Gibbs-measure techniques to Dirac-type PDEs on compact manifolds under zonal symmetry and provides a controlled renormalization framework for such nonlinear dispersive systems.
Abstract
We propose a framework to construct Gibbs measures for the Dirac equation. We consider the Dirac equation on the sphere with a "Hartree-type" nonlinearity. We consider a zonal model, that is the analog of a spherically symmetric model but on the sphere. We build a Gibbs measure for this model. With a compactness argument, we prove the existence of a random variable that is a weak solution to the Dirac equation and whose law is the Gibbs measure at all times.
