In a space of d $(d > 5) $ ordinary and d Grassmann coordinates, fields manifest in an ordinary four-dimensional subspace as spinor (1/2, 3/2), scalar, vector or tensor fields with the corresponding charges, according to two kinds of…
A physical and geometrical interpretation of previously introduced tensor operator algebras of U(2,2) in terms of algebras of higher-conformal-spin quantum fields on the anti-de Sitter space AdS_5 is provided. These are higher-dimensional…
A 5D SU(7) family unification model with two spinor representations of SO(14) is presented. The fifth dimension is compactified on $S^1/Z_2\times Z_2'$. The orbifolding is used to obtain 4D SO(10) chiral fermions. The 4D grand unification…
In recent work arXiv:1412.1715 it was shown how to modify Gell-Mann's proposal for identifying the 48 quarks and leptons of the Standard Model with the 48 spin-1/2 fermions of maximal SO(8) gauged supergravity that remain after the removal…
In this work we analyze the zero mode localization and resonances of $1/2-$spin fermions in co-dimension one Randall-Sundrum braneworld scenarios. We consider delta-like, domain walls and deformed domain walls membranes. Beyond the…
Some physics models have 10 dimensions that are usually decomposed into: 4 spacetime dimensions with local Lorentz Spin(1,3) symmetry plus a 6-dimensional compact space related to internal symmetries. A possibly useful alternative…
We identify the Standard Model's $\mathfrak{su}(3)\oplus \mathfrak{su}(2)\oplus \mathfrak{u}(1)$ internal symmetries within the triality symmetries $\mathfrak{tri}(\mathbb{C}) \oplus \mathfrak{tri}(\mathbb{H}) \oplus…
Minimal unitary representation of $SO(d,2)$ and its deformations describe all the conformally massless fields in $d$ dimensional Minkowskian spacetimes. In critical dimensions these spacetimes admit extensions with twistorial coordinates…
When four dimensional spacetime R is considered as locally embedded on a larger manifold M, labelled by higher division algebra coordinates, a natural question to ask is how much of the symmetry properties of the larger space are inherited…
I review and discuss the construction of supersymmetry multiplets and manifestly supersymmetric Batalin-Vilkovisky actions using pure spinors, with emphasis on models with maximal supersymmetry. The special cases of D=3, N=8…
A string in four dimensions is constructed by supplementing it with forty four Majorana fermions. The later are represented by eleven vectors in the bosonic representation $SO(D-1,1)$. The central charge is 26. The fermions are grouped in…
We consider 't Hooft anomalies of four-dimensional gauge theories whose fermion matter content admits $Spin_G(4)$ generalized spin structure, with $G$ either gauged or a global symmetry. We discuss methods to directly compute $w_2\cup w_3$…
It is shown that Weyl spinors in 4D Minkowski space are composed of primary fields of half-integer conformal weights. This yields representations of fermionic 2-point functions in terms of correlators of primary fields with a factorized…
A four dimensional Superstring is constructed starting from a twenty six dimensional bosonic string. Fermions are introduced by noting the Manselstam's proof of equivalence of two fermions to one boson in 1+1 dimensions. The action of the…
Spinor representation of group GL(4,R) on special spinor space is developed. Representation space has a structure of the fiber space with the space of diagonal metricses as the base and standard spinor space as typical fiber. Non-isometric…
The purpose of this letter is to remove the arbitrariness of the ad hoc choice of the algebra and its representation in the noncommutative approach to the Standard Model, which was begging for a conceptual explanation. We assume as before…
It is noted that a set of facts points to the relevance in four dimensions of conventional supersymmetric unification based on minimally a string-unified G(224)-symmetry, or maximally SO(10). These include: (i) the observed family-…
This paper provides a pedagogical introduction to the physics of extra dimensions focussing on the ADD, Randall-Sundrum and DGP models. In each of these models, the familiar particles and fields of the standard model are assumed to be…
Spinor formalism is the formalism induced by solutions of the Clifford equation (the connecting operators). For the space-time manifold (n = 4), these operators, connecting the tangent and spinor bundle, are operators that are represented…
We consider compactifications of $6d$ minimal $(D_{N+3},D_{N+3})$ type conformal matter SCFTs on a generic Riemann surface. We derive the theories corresponding to three punctured spheres (trinions) with three maximal punctures, from which…
