As opposed to Arminjon statements, in this work we again assert the absence of the non-uniqueness problem of the Dirac theory in a curved and flat spacetime and illustrate this with a number of examples. Dirac Hamiltonians in arbitrary,…
The spin connections of the Dirac field have three ingredients that are connected with the Ricci rotations, the Maxwell field, and an axial field which is coupled to the axial current. I demonstrate that the axial field provides an…
