The Dirac equation is solved in the rotating Bertotti-Robinson spacetime. The set of equations representing the Dirac equation in the Newman-Penrose formalism is decoupled into an axial and angular part. The axial equation, which is…
Here we argue that spinor structure arises naturally if relativistic statistical mechanics is formulated directly on phase spacetime. Requiring a first-order phase-spacetime description that retains both mass-shell branches leads to a…
Multivector quantum mechanics utilizes wavefunctions which are Clifford aggregates (e.g. sum of scalar, vector, bivector). This is equivalent to multi- spinors constructed of Dirac matrices, with the representation independent form of the…
The Dirac particle, i.e. the dynamic system S_D, described by the free Dirac equation is investigated. Although the Dirac equation is written usually in the relativistically covariant form, the dynamic system S_D is not completely…
Z2-gradings of Clifford algebras are reviewed and we shall be concerned with an alpha-grading based on the structure of inner automorphisms, which is closely related to the spacetime splitting, if we consider the standard conjugation map…

We investigate $L^1\to L^\infty$ dispersive estimates for the Dirac equation with a potential in four spatial dimensions. We classify the structure of the obstructions at the thresholds as being composed of an at most two dimensional space…
This paper presents a new Relativistic Symmetrical Interpretation (RSI) of the Dirac equation in (1+1)D which postulates: quantum mechanics is intrinsically time-symmetric, with no arrow of time; the fundamental objects of quantum mechanics…
In the present article, using a further generalization of the algebraic method of separation of variables, the Dirac equation is separated in a family of space-times where it is not possible to find a complete set of first order commuting…
We have proved on the basis of the symmetry analysis of the standard Dirac equation with nonzero mass that this equation may describe not only fermions of spin 1/2, but also bosons of spin 1. The new bosonic symmetries of the Dirac equation…
Over the past decades, many authors advertised models on complexified spacetime algebras for use in describing gravity. This work aims at providing phenomenological support to such claims, by introducing a one-parameter real phase $\alpha$…
We construct explicit Darboux transformations for a generalized, two-dimensional Dirac equation. Our results contain former findings for the one-dimensional, stationary Dirac equation, as well as for the fully time-dependent case in (1+1)…
We show that additional solutions must be ignored (in differences of the Schrodinger and Klein-Gordon equations) in the Dirac equation, where usually passed the second order radial equation, called the reduced equation, instead of a system.…
This paper investigates the scattering states of spin-1/2 particles in the spacetime of a spinning cosmic string with spacelike disclination and dislocation, with and without a Coulomb interaction. Working within the tetrad formalism, we…
Exact solutions of the Dirac equation, a system of four partial differential equations, are rare. The vast majority of them are for highly symmetric stationary systems. Moreover, only a handful of solutions for time dependent dynamics…
We apply Dirac's square root idea to constraints for embedded 4-geometries swept by a 3-dimensional membrane. The resulting Dirac-like equation is then analyzed for general coordinates as well as for the case of a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker…
Exact solutions of Dirac equation in two spatial dimensions in the Coulomb field are obtained. Equation which determines the so-called critical charge of the Coulomb field is derived and solved for a simple model.
We define a superalgebra S2(N/2) as a Z2 graded algebra of dimension 2N+3, where N is a positive, odd integer. The even component is a three-dimensional abelian subalgebra, while the odd component is made up of two N-dimensional, mutually…
The Dunkl--Dirac symmetry algebra is an associative subalgebra of the tensor product of a Clifford algebra and the faithful polynomial representation of a rational Cherednik algebra. In previous work, the finite-dimensional representations…
