Spin of elementary particles is the only kinematic degree of freedom not having classical corre- spondence. It arises when seeking for the finite-dimensional representations of the Lorentz group, which is the only symmetry group of…

In the most general geometric background, we study Dirac spinor fields with particular emphasis given to the explicit form of their gauge momentum and the way in which this can be inverted so to give the expression of the corresponding…

Frames for $\R^n$ can be thought of as redundant or linearly dependent coordinate systems, and have important applications in such areas as signal processing, data compression, and sampling theory. The word "frame" has a different meaning…

We consider a Riemannian spin manifold (M,g) with a fixed spin structure. The zero sets of solutions of generalized Dirac equations on M play an important role in some questions arising in conformal spin geometry and in mathematical…

Dirac equation is written in a non-Riemannian spacetime with torsion and non-metricity by lifting the connection from the tangent bundle to the spinor bundle over spacetime. Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation of the Dirac equation in a…

We introduce a spin field approach, that is compatible with the Cartan moving frame method, to describe the submanifold in a flat space. In fact, we consider a kind of spin field $\psi$, that satisfies a Killing spin field equation…

We define two categories of Dirac manifolds, i.e. manifolds with complex Dirac structures. The first notion of maps I call \emph{Dirac maps}, and the category of Dirac manifolds is seen to contain the categories of Poisson and complex…

Non-orientable nanostructures are becoming feasable today. This lead us to the study of spin in these geometries. Hence a physically sound definition of spin is suggested. Using our definition, we study the question of the number of…

One of the most important problems in the studying of frames and its extensions is the invariance of these systems under perturbation. The current paper is concerned with the invariance of Modular biframes for operators under some class of…

The Relativistic Dynamical Inversion technique, a novel tool for finding analytical solutions to the Dirac equation, is written in explicitly covariant form. It is then shown how the technique can be used to make a change from Cartesian to…

When aiming to apply mathematical results of non-commutative geometry to physical problems the question arises how they translate to a context in which only a part of the spectrum is known. In this article we aim to detect when a…

It is shown that every bundle $\varSigma\to M$ of complex spinor modules over the Clifford bundle $\Cl(g)$ of a Riemannian space $(M,g)$ with local model $(V,h)$ is associated with an lpin ("Lipschitz") structure on $M$, this being a…

The concept of elementary particle rests on the idea that it is a physical system with no excited states, so that all possible kinematical states of the particle are just kinematical modifications of any one of them. The way of describing…

In a previous paper, we showed how certain orientations of the edges of a graph G embedded in a closed oriented surface S can be understood as discrete spin structures on S. We then used this correspondence to give a geometric proof of the…

It has been argued recently that mirror symmetry exchanges two pure spinors characterizing a generic manifold with SU(3)-structure. We show how pure spinors are modified in the presence of topological D-branes, so that they are still…

The formulation of gravity in 3+1 dimensions in which the spin connection is the basic field ($\omega $-frame) leads to a theory with first and second class constraints. Here, the Dirac brackets for the second class constraints are…

We construct smooth bundles with base and fiber products of two spheres whose total spaces have non-vanishing $\hat{A}$-genus. We then use these bundles to locate non-trivial rational homotopy groups of spaces of Riemannian metrics with…
