We reduce the classification of all supersymmetric backgrounds in eleven dimensions to the evaluation of the supercovariant derivative and of an integrability condition, which contains the field equations, on six types of spinors. We…
We present a geometric approach to the field theory with higher order anisotropic interactions. The concepts of higher order space, or locally anisotropic, space (in brief, h-space, or la-space) are introduced as general ones for various…
In this paper we study Dirac-Hestenes spinor fields (DHSF) on a four-dimensional Riemann-Cartan spacetime (RCST). We prove that these fields must be defined as certain equivalence classes of even sections of the Clifford bundle (over the…
A classification of spinor fields according to the associated bilinear covariants is constructed in arbitrary dimensions and metric signatures, generalizing Lounesto's 4D spinor field classification. In such a generalized classification a…

We discuss $\mathcal{N}=1$ Klein and Klein-Conformal superspaces in $D=(2,2)$ space-time dimensions, realizing them in terms of their functor of points over the split composition algebra $\mathbb{C}_{s}$. We exploit the observation that…
Non-trivial configurations of Yang-Mills fields and gravitational backgrounds induce charges on Dp-branes that couple them to lower and higher RR potentials. We show that these couplings can be described in a systematic and coordinate…

On the basis of analytic solutions of Schrodinger and Pauli equations for a uniform magnetic field and a single attractive $\delta({\bf r})$-potential the equations for the bound one-active electron states are discussed. It is vary…
It is shown how the old Cartan's conjecture on the fundamental role of the geometry of simple (or pure) spinors, as bilinearly underlying euclidean geometry, may be extended also to quantum mechanics of fermions (in first quantization),…
We address the Klein-Gordon equation for a spinless charged particle in the presence of an electromagnetic (EM) field, and focus on its known shortcoming, related to the existence of solutions with a negative probability density. We…
It is well known that the usual formulation of Elko spinor fields leads to a subtle Lorentz symmetry break encoded in the spin sums. Recently it was proposed a redefinition in the dual structure, along with a given mathematical device,…
A system of PDEs for the electromagnetic field and one real component of the spinor field is generally equivalent to spinor electrodynamics. There are reasons to believe that the component can be differentially eliminated from the system. A…
Powerful general arguments allow only a few families of long-range interactions, exemplified by gauge field theories of electromagnetism and gravity. However, all of these arguments presuppose that massless fields have zero spin scale…
We study the Klein-Gordon (KG) oscillators in a spinning cosmic string spacetime and an external magnetic field. The corresponding KG-equation is shown to admit a solution in the form of the confluent hypergeometric functions/polynomials.…
From the 16-component Dirac-K\"{a}hler field theory, spinor equations for two types of massless vector photon fields with different parities have been derived. Their equivalent tensor equations in terms of the strength tensor $F_{ab}$ and…
It is shown that c-number elko spinors obey the massless Dirac equation and are unitarily equivalent to Weyl bispinors. Therefore, they do not constitute a new spinor type with mass dimension one.
We delve into the first principles of quantum field theory to prove that the so-called spin-1/2 ''bosons'' and the fermions with mass dimension 1, including ELKO, cannot represent physical particle states with spin $1/2$. Specifically, we…
