Charge conjugation from space-time inversion in QED: discrete and continuous groups

Mathematical Physics 2011-05-25 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory math.MP

Abstract

We show that the CPT groups of QED emerge naturally from the PT and P (or T) subgroups of the Lorentz group. We also find relationships between these discrete groups and continuous groups, like the connected Lorentz and Poincar\'e groups and their universal coverings.
