We present a new staggered discretization of the Dirac operator. Doubling gives only a doublet of Dirac fermions which we propose to interpret as a physical (lepton or quark) doublet. If coupled with gauge fields, an $(1+\gamma^5)$ chiral…

We analyze the possibilities of pairing between two different fermion species in asymmetric matter at low density. While the direct interaction allows pairing only for very small asymmetries, the pairing mediated by polarization effects is…

We study exotic fermions with spectrum E^2 ~ p^{2N}. Such spectrum emerges in the vicinity of the Fermi point with multiple topological charge N, if special symmetry is obeyed. When this symmetry is violated, the multiple Fermi point…

The Hamiltonian describing fermion pair production from an arbitrarily time-varying electric field in two dimensions is studied using a group-theoretic approach. We show that this Hamiltonian can be encompassed by two, commuting SU(2)…

We describe a possibility of creation of an odd number of fractionally charged fermions in 1+1 dimensional Abelian Higgs model. We point out that for 1+1 dimensions this process does not violate any symmetries of the theory, nor makes it…

A system of exclusive fermions occurs when two fermions of opposite spin are prohibited from occupying the same quantum level. We derive the distribution of exclusive fermions via the employment of the grand canonical ensemble. Salient…

The Dualized Standard Model offers a natural place both to Higgs fields and to fermion generations with Higgs fields appearing as frame vectors in internal symmetry space and generation appearing as dual colour. If they are assigned those…
