We consider a point particle coupled to 2+1 gravity, with de Sitter gauge group SO(3,1). We observe that there are two contraction limits of the gauge group: one resulting in the Poincare group, and the second with the gauge group having…

Magnetic effects on free electron systems have been studied extensively in the context of spin-to-orbital angular momentum conversion. Using a quantum field theory framework, we derive a similar relationship in the non-relativistic limit…
