Special thanks to Mikhail Kalinin and Justin Traglia for correcting several mistakes. The Weak Subjectivity Period (WSP) is the period of time a node can stop observing the chain for and when they return not be tricked by an adversary as to who is and isn't a validator. To execute a weak subjectivity attack, an attacker creates two diverging chains starting the moment the chain was last observed such that a minimal amount of their attacking balance needs to equivocate (and be slashed) in order for the attack to succeed. When a node is following the chain and is thus fully aware of all validator balances, the minimum amount of balance that needs to equivocate and be slashed is $\frac 1 3$ of the total active balance. As two divergent chains each need $\frac 2 3$ of the balance to finalize an epoch and the minimum intersection of $\frac 2 3$ and $\frac 2 3$ of the same set is $\frac 1 3$. The WSP is parameterized by the Decay Parameter $D, ; \left(0<D<\frac 1 3 \right)$, which determines by how much we're willing to weaken the normal $\frac 1 3$ slashing guarentee for nodes that stop viewing the chain for the duration of the WSP.
