We construct local and global metaplectic double covers of odd general spin groups, using the cover of Matsumoto of spin groups. Following Kazhdan and Patterson, a local exceptional representation is the unique irreducible quotient of a…
We develop an invariant approach to $SU(2)$--structures on spin $5$--manifolds. We characterize (via spinor approach) the subspaces in the spinor bundle which induce the same group isomorphic to $SU(2)$. Moreover, we show how to induce…
Local SU(3)-structures on an oriented submanifold of Spin(7)-manifold are determined and their types are characterized in terms of the shape operator and the type of the Spin(7)-structure. An application to Bryant \cite{MR89b:53084} and…
Concerning the new boson representation presented in Part I, it is proved that this representation obeys the su(2)-algebra in a certain subspace in the whole boson space constructed by the Schwinger boson representation of the…
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,…
We discuss non-Lorentzian Lagrangian field theories in $2n-1$ dimensions that admit an $SU(1,n)$ spacetime symmetry which includes a scaling transformation. These can be obtained by a conformal compactification of a $2n$-dimensional…
A graphical representation of supersymmetry is presented. It clearly expresses the chiral flow appearing in SUSY quantities, by representing spinors by {\it directed lines} (arrows). The chiral suffixes are expressed by the directions (up,…
We study the geometric structure of Lorentzian spin manifolds, which admit imaginary Killing spinors. The discussion is based on the cone construction and a normal form classification of skew-adjoint operators in signature $(2,n-2)$.…
We explain the finite as well as infinite degeneracy in the spectrum of a particular system of spin-1/2 fermions with spin-orbit coupling in three spatial dimensions. Starting from a generalized Runge-Lenz vector, we explicitly construct a…
Induced supersymmetry representations on composite operators are studied. In superspace the ensuing transformation rules (trivially) lead to an effective superfield. On the other hand, an induced representation must exist for non-linear…
There are exactly three finite subgroups of SU(2) that act irreducibly in the spin 1 representation, namely the binary tetrahedral, binary octahedral and binary icosahedral groups. In previous papers I have shown how the binary tetrahedral…
A minimal representation of the N = 8 extended worldline supersymmetry, known as the `ultra-multiplet', is closely related to a family of supermultiplets with the same, E(8) chromotopology. We catalogue their effective symmetries and find a…
This article provides a geometric representation for the well-known isomorphism between the special orthogonal group of an isotropic quadratic space of dimension 3 and the group of projective transformations of a projective line. This…
We introduce the notion of a generalized spin representation of the maximal compact subalgebra of a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra in order to show that, if defined over a formally real field, every such subalgebra has a non-trivial…
In the framework of the Schwinger boson representation for the su(2)-algebra, the closed form is derived for the total spin eigenstates which result from the coupling of n su(2)-spins. In order to demonstrate its usefulness, the orthogonal…
Transformation properties of Dirac equation correspond to Spin(3,1) representation of Lorentz group SO(3,1), but group GL(4,R) of general relativity does not accept a similar construction with Dirac spinors. On the other hand, it is…
We will discuss the following results C_n complexification of R(n) spaces, C_n structure and the invariant surfaces C_n holomorphicity and harmonicity. We also consider the link between C_n holomorphicity and the origin of spin 1/n. In our…
We extend the results of our previous work on the conformal invariant description of two relativistic point particles. We consider here the most general lagrangian by using a conformal tensor $h_{\mu\nu}$, transforming as a Wilson line, and…
Systems of equations are invariant under "polydimensional transformations" which reshuffle the geometry such that what is a line or a plane is dependent upon the frame of reference. This leads us to propose an extension of Clifford calculus…
There is a well-known correspondence between the symplectic variety of representations of the fundamental group of a punctured Riemann surface into a compact Lie group G, with fixed conjugacy classes at the punctures, and a complex variety…
