We show that a recently discovered non-perturbative field-theoretical mechanism giving mass to elementary fermions, is also capable of generating a mass for the electro-weak bosons and can thus be used as a viable alternative to the Higgs…
It is shown that a Dirac(-type) equation for a rank-two bi-spinor field on Minkowski (configuration) spacetime furnishes a Lorentz-covariant quantum-mechanical wave equation in position-space representation for a single free photon. This…
The precise renormalizable interactions in the bosonic sector of electroweak theory are intrinsically determined in the autonomous approach to perturbation theory. This proceeds directly on the Hilbert-Fock space built on the Wigner…
In the first part of this work (http://www.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0509044), it was shown that the Klein-Gordon-Maxwell electrodynamics in the unitary gauge allows natural elimination of the particle wave function and describes independent…
We demonstrate that classical and quantum electrodynamics can be completed by gravitational torsion appearing in Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity, providing the missing part of the electron theory. One of the equations of…
The Dirac equation, in the field of a traveling circularly polarized electromagnetic wave and a constant magnetic field, has singular solutions, corresponding the expansion of energy in vicinity of some singular point. These solutions…
In the Standard Model, all massive elementary particles acquire their masses by coupling to a background Higgs field with a non-zero vacuum expectation value. What is often overlooked is that each massive particle is also a source of the…
A derivation is presented of the quantummechanical wave equations based upon the Equity Principle of Einstein's General Relativity Theory. This is believed to be more generic than the common derivations based upon Einstein's energy…
The single graphene layer is a novel material consisting of a flat monolayer of carbon atoms packed in a two-dimensional honeycomb-lattice, in which the electron dynamics is governed by the Dirac equation. A pseudo-spin phase-space approach…
The unique off-shell fermionic gauge invariance of a vector-spinor field theory is found, and the invariant action is derived. The latter is Weyl invariant in any dimension in the massless limit, and it coincides with the singular point of…
We prove a shape theorem for a growing set of simple random walks on Z^d, known as frog model. The dynamics of this process is described as follows: There are active particles, which perform independent discrete time SRWs, and sleeping…
We investigate the propagation of electromagnetic fields and potentials in the plasma of the early Universe, assuming a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background with negative curvature. Taking over results from classical plasma physics, we…
Grassmann-valued Dirac fields together with the electromagnetic field (the pseudoclassical basis of QED) are reformulated on spacelike hypersurfaces in Minkowski spacetime and then restricted to Wigner hyperplanes to get their description…
We derive the kinetic equation for fermions and antifermions interacting with a planar Higgs bubble wall during the electroweak phase transition using the `evenisation' procedure and the Wigner formalism for a Lagrangian with the phase of…
In De Broglie-Bohm Pilot-Wave Theory unique equations of motion and scalar fields for a particle can be formulated. This is done by finding a solution for a divergence free probability density current $\vec{J}(r,t)$ and then dividing by the…
There were many attempts to geometrize electromagnetic field and find out new interpretation for quantum mechanics formalism. The distinctive feature of this work is that it combines geometrization of electromagnetic field and…
Recent progress in the theory of the electroweak phase transition is discussed. For the Higgs boson mass smaller than the masses of W and Z bosons, the phase transition is of the first order. However, its strength is approximately 2/3 times…
The de Broglie - Bohm "pilot-wave" theory replaces the paradoxical wave-particle duality of ordinary quantum theory with a more mundane and literal kind of duality: each individual photon or electron comprises a quantum wave (evolving in…
The Higgs mechanism is one of the central pieces of the Standard Model of electroweak interactions and thanks to it we can generate the masses of the elementary particles. Its fundamental origin is nonetheless unknown. Furthermore, in order…
Relativistic spin-1/2 particles in curved spacetime are naturally described by Dirac theory, which is a dynamical and Lorentz-invariant field theory. In this work, we propose a non-dynamical fermion theory in 3+1 dimensions dubbed spinor…
