In this study, novel Hyperbolic spinor sequences of Jacobsthal, Jacobsthal-Lucas and Jacobsthal polynomial, which have not been studied before, are defined by investigating the relationship between spinors, which are important mathematical…
This paper discusses a framework to parametrize and decompose operator matrix elements for particles with higher spin $(j > 1/2)$ using chiral representations of the Lorentz group, i.e. the $(j,0)$ and $(0,j)$ representations and their…
In this paper, we make the case that Clifford algebra is the natural framework for root systems and reflection groups, as well as related groups such as the conformal and modular groups: The metric that exists on these spaces can always be…
Quaternionic representations of Coxeter (reflection) groups of ranks 3 and 4, as well as those of E_8, have been used extensively in the literature. The present paper analyses such Coxeter groups in the Clifford Geometric Algebra framework,…
All possible permutations in the discrete $S_4$ group are classified by three rotation angles associated with the orthogonal group $O(3)$. We construct a spinor representation ${\bf 2}_D$ of $O(3)$, which is transformed by three 4$\times$4…
The usual spinor construction from one fermion yields four irreducible representations of the Virasoro algebra with central charge $c = 1/2$. The Neveu-Schwarz (NS) sector is the direct sum of an $h = 0$ and an $h = 1/2$ module, and the…
We formulate Lorentz group representations in which ordinary complex numbers are replaced by linear functions of real quaternions and introduce dotted and undotted quaternionic one-dimensional spinors. To extend to parity the space-time…
Part I: The geometric algebra of space is derived by extending the real number system to include three mutually anticommuting square roots of plus one. The resulting geometric algebra is isomorphic to the algebra of complex 2x2 matrices,…
By exploring a spinor space whose elements carry a spin 1/2 representation of the Lorentz group and satisfy the the Fierz-Pauli-Kofink identities we show that certain symmetries operations form a Lie group. Moreover, we discuss the reflex…
A set of two-parameter bi-orthogonal eigen-spinors has been constructed from a deformed pseudo- Hermitian extension of Pauli Hamiltonian and its Hermitian conjugate. The Hamiltonians thus obtained are iso-spectral to the original Pauli…
We introduce the spinor representations for osp(m|2n). These generalize the spinors for so(m) and the symplectic spinors for sp(2n) and correspond to representations of the supergroup with supergroup pair (Spin(m) x Mp(2n),osp(m|2n)). We…
Spin$^h$ manifolds are the quaternionic analogue to Spin$^c$ manifolds. We compute the spin$^h$ bordism groups at the prime 2 by proving a structure theorem for the cohomology of the spin$^h$ bordism spectrum $\mathrm{MSpin}^h$ as a module…
We consider a construction of the fundamental spin representations of the simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{so}(n)$ in terms of binary arithmetic of fixed width integers. This gives the spin matrices as a Lie subalgebra of a…
A group theoretical description of basic discrete symmetries (space inversion P, time reversal T and charge conjugation C) is given. Discrete subgroups of orthogonal groups of multidimensional spaces over the fields of real and complex…
I begin by explaining how Riemannian geometry can be understood in terms of principal fibre bundles and connections thereon. I then introduce and motivate the definition of a spinor structure in terms of familiar geometrical ideas. The…
The theory of representations of Clifford algebras is extended to employ the division algebra of the octonions or Cayley numbers. In particular, questions that arise from the non-associativity and non-commutativity of this division algebra…
In this paper, theory and construction of spinor representations of real Clifford algebras $\cl_{p,q}$ in minimal left ideals are reviewed. Connection with a general theory of semisimple rings is shown. The actual computations can be found…
We set up a framework of 2-Hilbert bundles, which allows to rigorously define the "stringor bundle", a higher differential geometric object anticipated by Stolz and Teichner in an unpublished preprint about 20 years ago. Our framework…
A spin system is a sequence of self-adjoint unitary operators $U_1,U_2,...$ acting on a Hilbert space $H$ which either commute or anticommute, $U_iU_j=\pm U_jU_i$ for all $i,j$; it is is called irreducible when $\{U_1,U_2,...\}$ is an…
Building on the universal covering group of the general linear group, we introduce the composite spinor bundle whose subbundles are Lorentz spin structures associated with different gravitational fields. General covariant transformations of…
