Relativistic massless Weyl and Dirac fermions exhibit the isotropic and linear dispersion relations to preserve the Poincar\'{e} symmetry, the most fundamental symmetry in high energy physics. In solids, the counterparts of the Poincar\'{e}…

We compute conformal correlation functions with spinor, tensor, and spinor-tensor primary fields in general dimensions with Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics. The spinors are taken to be Dirac spinors, which exist for any dimensions. For…

Requiring physical consistency in a classical flat spacetime geometrisation of fermions is shown to suggest the introduction of torsion. A resulting simple model for that torsion produces a localised quantum-like particle as a solution of a…

It is shown that Weyl spinors in 4D Minkowski space are composed of primary fields of half-integer conformal weights. This yields representations of fermionic 2-point functions in terms of correlators of primary fields with a factorized…

The coupling of spin 0 and spin 1 external fields to Dirac fermions defines a theory which displays gauge chiral symmetry. Quantum mechanically, functional integration of the fermions yields the determinant of the Dirac operator, known as…

We detailed our discovery of a chiral enhancement in the production cross sections of massive spin-2 gravitons, below the electroweak symmetry breaking scale, that makes them ideal dark matter candidates for the freeze-in mechanism. The…

In the framework of the path integral approach we develop the velocity component formalism for spin-1/2 and -3/2 baryons coupled with pseudoscalar mesons in the limit of heavy baryons. Starting from the most general chiral meson-baryon…

We perform mean-field study of possible magnetic instabilities in Dirac semimetals. We find that Dirac electrons naturally host antiferromagnetic or spin density wave ground states, though their specific configurations may vary depending on…

We combine a pair of independent Weyl fermions to compose a Dirac fermion on the four-dimensional Euclidean lattice. The obtained Dirac operator is antihermitian and does not reproduce anomaly under the usual chiral transformation. To…

An $O(3)$ spinor, $\Phi$, as a doublet denoted by ${\bf 2}_D$ consists of an $SO(3)$ spinor, $\phi$, and its complex conjugate, $\phi^\ast$, which form $\Phi=\left(\phi,\phi^\ast\right)^T$ to be identified with a Majorana-type spinor of…
