A Geometric Photon Mass-Gap Conjecture: Spectral Gaps for Photonic Operators
Abstract
We formulate a precise Geometric Photon Mass-Gap Conjecture asserting that Laplace-type operators
modelling photonic dynamics on compact manifolds with photonic coupling admit a strictly
positive spectral gap above zero under explicit geometric and bundle-theoretic hypotheses.
