Abstract

The 6D and 5D representations of the four-dimensional (4D) interacted fields and the corresponding equations of motion are obtained using equivalence of the conformal transformations of the four-momentum qμq_{\mu} (qμ=qμ+hμq'_{\mu}=q_{\mu}+h_{\mu}, qμ=Λμνqνq'_{\mu}=\Lambda^{\nu}_{\mu}q_{\nu}, qμ=λqμq'_{\mu}=\lambda q_{\mu} and qμ=M2qμ/q2q'_{\mu}=-M^2q_{\mu}/q^2) and the corresponding rotations on the 6D cone κAκA=0\kappa_A\kappa^A=0 (A=μ;5,60,1,2,3;5,6)(A=\mu;5,6\equiv 0,1,2,3;5,6) with qμ=M κμ/(κ5+κ6)q_{\mu}=M\ \kappa_{\mu}/(\kappa_{5}+\kappa_{6}) and the scale parameter MM. The 4D reduction of the 6D fields on the cone κAκA=0\kappa_A\kappa^A=0 require the intermediate 5D projection of the fields which are placed into two 5D hyperboloids qμqμ+q52=M2q_{\mu}q^{\mu}+ q_5^2= M^2 and qμqμq52=M2q_{\mu}q^{\mu}- q_5^2=- M^2 in order to cover the whole domain (,)(-\infty,\infty) of q2qμqμq^2\equiv q_{\mu}q^{\mu} with (q520(q_5^2\ge 0. The resulting 5D and 4D fields φ(x,x5=0)=Φ(x)\varphi(x,x_5=0)=\Phi(x) in the coordinate space consist of two parts φ=φ1+φ2\varphi=\varphi_1+\varphi_2 and Φ=Φ1+Φ2\Phi=\Phi_1+\Phi_2, where the Fourier conjugate of φ1(x,x5)\varphi_1(x,x_5) and φ2(x,x5)\varphi_2(x,x_5) are defined on the hyperboloids qμqμ+q52=M2q_{\mu}q^{\mu}+ q_5^2= M^2 and qμqμq52=M2q_{\mu}q^{\mu}- q_5^2=- M^2 respectively. The present relationship between the 6D, 5D and 4D fields require two kinds of 5D fields φ±=φ1±φ2\varphi_{\pm}=\varphi_1\pm\varphi_2 and their 4D reductions φ±(x5=0)=Φ±=Φ1±Φ2\varphi_{\pm}(x_5=0)=\Phi_{\pm}=\Phi_1\pm\Phi_2 with the same quantum numbers and with the different masses and the source operators. This doubling of the 4D fields Φ±=Φ1±Φ2\Phi_{\pm}=\Phi_1\pm \Phi_2 is in agreement with the observed mass splitting of the electron and muon, π\pi and π(1300)\pi(1300)-mesons, N and N(1440)-nucleons etc [1].
