In bosonic formulation of the negative energy sea, so called Dirac sea presented in the preceding paper [arXiv:hep-th/0603242], one of the crucial points is how to construct a positive definite inner product in the negative energy states,…
We propose a hole theory for bosons, in which, analogous to fermions, a hole produced by the annihilation of one negative energy boson is an anti-particle. We show that the boson vacuum indeed also consists of a sea in which all negative…
We explore new infrared dualities in $(2+1)$-dimensional quantum field theories involving Majorana fermions. Building on the recently proposed operator-deformation approach to bosonization dualities, we incorporate the bosonization of…
Starting from considerations of Bosons at the real life Compton scale we go on to a description of Fermions, specifically the Dirac equation in terms of an underlying noncommutative geometry described by the Dirac $\gamma$ matrices and…
It is shown that the Dirac sea can be uniquely defined for the Dirac equation with general interaction, if we impose a causality condition on the Dirac sea. We derive an explicit formula for the Dirac sea in terms of a power series in the…
A concise discussion of spin-1/2 field equations with a special focus on Majorana spinors is presented. The Majorana formalism which describes massive neutral fermions by the help of two-component or four-component spinors is of fundamental…
Due to the standard electroweak model we have become accustomed to think about a neutrino $\nu$ and its antineutrino $\bar \nu$ as distinct particles. However, it has long been recognized that the apparent distinction between them may be…
The Dirac theory implies the existence of an internal vector space, in addition to spin space. Using Dirac's coupling of variables in internal space to those in physical space, we construct a new configuration structure for particles in the…
In the whole set of solutions of the Dirac equation there is a different class referred to as anomalous. Corresponding anomalous particles are independent of conventional ones. The concept of anomalous particles is applicable to Dirac…
A version of the Dirac equation is derived from first principles using a combination of quaternions and multivariate 4-vectors. The nilpotent form of the operators used allows us to derive explicit expressions for the wavefunctions of free…
A Majorana fermion is the single fermionic particle that is its own antiparticle. Its dynamics is determined by the Majorana equation where the spinor field $(\psi)$ is by definition equal to its charge-conjugate field $(\psi_c)$. Here, we…
We discuss the structure of the Dirac equation and how the nilpotent and the Majorana operators arise naturally in this context. This provides a link between Kauffman's work on discrete physics, iterants and Majorana Fermions and the work…
Particles made of two fermions can in many cases be treated as elementary bosons, but the conditions for this treatment to be valid are nontrivial. The so-called "coboson formalism" is a powerful tool to tackle compositeness effects…
One route towards understanding both fractional charges and chiral anomalies delves into Dirac's negative energy sea. Usually we think of Dirac's negative energy sea as an unphysical construct, invented to render quantum field theory…
