The field equation for a spin 1/2 massive charged particle propagating in spacetimes that are the direct product of 2-dimensional spaces is separated. Moreover, we use this result to attain the separability of the Dirac equation in some…

Clifford geometric algebras of multivectors are introduced which exhibit a bilinear form which is not necessarily symmetric. Looking at a subset of bi-vectors in CL(K^{2n},B), we proof that theses elements generate the Hecke algebra…

It is shown that in the case of the spherically symmetric static backgrounds there is a gauge in which the Dirac equation is manifestly covariant under rotations. This allows us to separate the spherical variables like in the flat…

One key theme of Basil Hiley's work was the development of David Bohm's approach to Quantum Mechanics; in particular the concept of the quantum potential. Another theme was the importance of Clifford Algebras in fundamental physics. In this…

Let A be a C*-algebra, h a Hilbert space and C the CAR algebra over h. We construct a twisted tensor product of A by C such that the two factors are not necessarily one in the relative commutant of the other. The resulting C*-algebra may be…
