This paper is a continuation of our works concerning Linear Canonical Transformations (LCT) and Phase Space Representation of Quantum Theory. The purpose is to study the spinorial representation of some particular LCT called Isodispersion…
We consider the propagation of a neutrino in a background composed of a scalar particle and a fermion using a simple model for the coupling of the form $\lambda\bar f_R\nu_L\phi$. In the presence of these interactions there can be damping…
Meson spin splittings are examined within an effective Coulomb gauge QCD Hamiltonian incorporating chiral symmetry and a transverse hyperfine interaction necessary for heavy quarks. For light and heavy quarkonium systems the…

We investigate scalar matrix elements of the nucleon using $N_f=2+1+1$ flavors of maximally twisted mass fermions at a fixed value of the lattice spacing of $a\approx 0.078{\rm fm}$. We compute disconnected contributions to the relevant…
In the model every quark or lepton is identified with a quartet of four "more elementary" particles. One particle in a quartet is a massive spin-0 boson and other three particles are massless spin-1/2 fermions.
Based on experimental evidences supporting the hypothesis that neutrinos might be spacelike particles, a new Dirac-type equation is proposed and a spin-1/2 spacelike quantum theory is developed. The new Dirac-type equation provides a…
A general formulation of spinor fields in Riemannian space-time is given without using vierbeins. The space-time dependence of the Dirac matrices required by the anticommutation relation {\gamma_{\mu},\gamma_{\nu}}=2g_{\mu\nu} determines…
We propose a supersymmetric SU(5)xSU(5) model, where the quarks and leptons live in a U(1) product group theory space that is compactified on the real projective plane RP^2. The fermion generations are placed on different points in the…
An NJL-type three-flavor quark model with a complete set of explicit chiral symmetry breaking terms is extended to include vector and axial vector effective interaction terms. The bosonized Lagrangian is written up to quadratic order in the…
We introduce the spin-charge separation mechanism to the quark-lepton unification models which consider the lepton number as the fourth color. In certain finite-density systems, quarks and leptons are decomposed into spinons and chargons,…
The contributions of strange quarks to the nucleon mass and the nucleon spin are investigated in a mixed action scheme employing domain wall valence quarks and quark loops on MILC asqtad dynamical fermion ensembles. Results are presented…
It is shown that a subgroup of $SL(2,{\mathbb H})$, denoted $Spin(2,{\mathbb H})$ in this paper, which is defined by two conditions in addition to unit quaternionic determinant, is locally isomorphic to the restricted Lorentz group,…
We describe a new realization of both global and local supersymmetry acting in spaces of commuting and anticommuting differential forms. Unlike the standard supersymmetry, it has Lorentz scalar transformation parameters. It is related but…
We examine simple extension of the standard model with a pair of fermions, one singlet and a doublet, in a common thread linking the dark matter problem with the smallness of neutrino masses associated with several exciting features. In the…
One of the most important problem in hadron physics is to establish the Lorentz-invariant classification scheme of composite hadrons, extending the framework of non-relativistic quark model. We present an attempt, by developing proper-time…
We point out that the minimal seesaw model can provide a natural framework to accommodate tiny neutrino masses, while its experimental testability and notable predictiveness are still maintained. This possibility is based on the observation…
We show how quark and lepton mass hierarchies can be reproduced in the framework of modular symmetry. The mechanism is analogous to the Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) mechanism, but without requiring any Abelian symmetry to be introduced, nor any…
We investigate the conformal transformation of vierbein-Einstein-Palatini (VEP) action in terms of tetrads $e^I_\mu$ and spin connection $A^{IJ}_\mu$. The transformation of the spin connection is indeterminate off-shell unless equations of…
Large fermionic multiplets appear in different extensions of the Standard Model (SM), which are essential to predict small neutrino masses, relic abundance of the dark matter (DM) and the measured value of muon anomalous magnetic moment…
