We consider the Dirac Operator acting on the Clifford Algebra ${C\ell}_{m}$. We show that under critical assumptions on the potential and the spinor field the equation is subject to an integrability by compensation phenomenon and has a…

4x4 Dirac (gamma) matrices (irreducible matrix representations of the Clifford algebras C(3,1), C(1,3), C(4,0)) are an essential part of many calculations in quantum physics. Although the final physical results do not depend on the applied…

We present a new type of three-dimensional essential Dirac semimetal with magnetic ordering. The Dirac points are protected by the magnetic space groups and cannot be gapped without lowering such symmetries, where the combined antiunitary…

A generic-curved spacetime Dirac-like equation in 3D is constructed. It has, owing to the $\bar{SL}(n,R)$ group deunitarizing automorphism, a physically correct unitarity and flat spacetime particle properties. The construction is achieved…

We investigate the general properties of the dimensional reduction of the Dirac theory, formulated in a Minkowski spacetime with an arbitrary number of spatial dimensions. This is done by applying Hadamard's method of descent, which…

We obtain a continuous Wick rotation for Dirac, Majorana and Weyl spinors $\psi \to \exp ({1\over 2} \theta \gamma^4 \gamma^5)\psi$ which interpolates between Minkowski and Euclidean field theories.

We extract the square root of the Minkowski metric using Dirac/Clifford matrices. The resulting $4\times 4$ operator $d{\bf S}$ that represents the square root, can be used to transform four vectors between relatively moving observers. This…

This paper is the second one of a series of three and it is the continuation of math-ph/0412074. We review some properties of the algebraic spinors in Cl(3,0) and Cl(0,3) and how Weyl, Pauli and Dirac spinors are constructed in Cl(3,0) (and…
