An extension of the Legendre transform to non-convex functions with vanishing Hessian as a mix of envelope and general solutions of the Clairaut equation is proposed. Applying this to systems with constraints, the procedure of finding a…
In this paper, we revisit the two theoretical approaches for the formulation of the tachyonic Dirac equation. The first approach works within the theory of restricted relativity, starting from a Lorentz invariant Lagrangian consistent with…
In this article, we prove a Feynman-Kac type result for a broad class of second order ordinary differential equations. The classical Feynman-Kac theorem says that the solution to a broad class of second order parabolic equations is the mean…
A general sufficient condition for the convergence of subsequences of solutions of non-autonomous, nonlinear difference equations and systems is obtained. For higher order equations the delay sizes and patterns play essential roles in…
We formulate a conjecture classifying algebraic solutions to (possibly non-linear) algebraic differential equations, in terms of the primes appearing in the denominators of the coefficients of their Taylor expansion at a non-singular point.…
We develop a complete Dirac's canonical analysis for an alternative action that yields Maxwell's four-dimensional equations of motion. We study in detail the full symmetries of the action by following all steps of Dirac's method in order to…
It was conjectured that the augmentation ideal of a dihedral quandle of even order $n>2$ satisfies $|\Delta^k(\text{R}_n)/\Delta^{k+1}(\text{R}_{n})|=n$ for all $k\geq 2$. In this article we provide a counterexample against this conjecture.

The Dirac-Dolbeault operator for a compact K\"ahler manifold is a special case of a Dirac operator. The Green function for the Dirac Laplacian over a Riemannian manifold with boundary allows to express the values of the sections of the…
We construct nonlinear extensions of Dirac's relativistic electron equation that preserve its other desirable properties such as locality, separability, conservation of probability and Poincar\'e invariance. We determine the constraints…
In the framework leading to the multiplicative anomaly formula ---which is here proven to be valid even in cases of known spectrum but non-compact manifold (very important in Physics)--- zeta-function regularisation techniques are shown to…
We investigate the global solutions of the Dirac equation on the Anti-de-Sitter Universe. Since this space is not globally hyperbolic, the Cauchy problem is not, {\it a priori}, well-posed. Nevertheless we can prove that there exists…
We investigate the reciprocity law, studied by Conrey~\cite{Con07} and Young~\cite{You11a}, for the second moment of Dirichlet L-functions twisted by $\chi(a)$ modulo a prime $q$. We show that the error term in this reciprocity law can be…
In contrast to formulations of the Dirac theory by Hestenes and by the current author, the formulation recently presented by W. P. Joyce [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 34 (2001) 1991--2005] is equivalent to the usual Dirac equation only in the…

We show that the Lorentz-Dirac equation is not an unavoidable consequence of energy-momentum conservation for a point charge. What follows solely from conservation laws is a less restrictive equation already obtained by Honig and Szamosi.…
