%X Christ and Kiselev have established that the generalized eigenfunctions of one-dimensional Dirac operators with $L^p$ potential $F$ are bounded for almost all energies for $p < 2$. Roughly speaking, the proof involved writing these eigenfunctions as a multilinear series $\sum_n T_n(F, ..., F)$ and carefully bounding each term $T_n(F, ..., F)$. It is conjectured that the results of Christ and Kiselev also hold for $L^2$ potentials $F$. However in this note we show that the bilinear term $T_2(F,F)$ and the trilinear term $T_3(F,F,F)$ are badly behaved on $L^2$, which seems to indicate that multilinear expansions are not the right tool for tackling this endpoint case.
