Whatever it is that animates anima and breathes life into higher algebra, this something leaves its trace in the structure of a Dirac ring on the homotopy groups of a commutative algebra in spectra. In the prequel to this paper, we…
These are introductory notes on the study of the Dirac equation in curved spacetime and its relation to hidden symmetries of the dynamics. We present general results on the relation between special spacetime tensors and hidden symmetries,…
The idea of using Dirac cohomology to study branching laws was initiated by Huang, Pandzi\'c and Zhu in 2013 [HPZ]. One of their results says that the Dirac cohomology of $\pi$ completely determines $\pi|_{K}$, where $\pi$ is any…
Normality of the Dirac operator is shown to be necessary for chiral properties. From the global chiral Ward identity, which in the continuum limit gives the index theorem, a sum rule results which constrains the spectrum. The…
This paper gives a criterion for the non-vanishing of the Dirac cohomology of $\mathcal{L}_S(Z)$, where $\mathcal{L}_S(\cdot)$ is the cohomological induction functor, while the inducing module $Z$ is irreducible, unitarizable, and in the…
We develop by example a type of index theory for non-Fredholm operators. A general framework using cyclic homology for this notion of index was introduced in a separate article [CaKa13] where it may be seen to generalise earlier ideas of…
In the superalgebraic representation of spinors using Grassmann densities and derivatives with respect to them, a generalization of Dirac conjugation is introduced, which provides Lorentz-covariant transformations of conjugate spinors. It…
In this work, we have extended the factorization method of scalar shape-invariant Schr\"o\-din\-ger Hamiltonians to a class of Dirac-like matrix Hamiltonians. The intertwining operators of the Schr\"odinger equations have been implemented…
In this note, we explain how the f-invariant of a circle transfer can be computed on the framed manifold itself in terms of the spectral asymmetry of twisted Dirac operators on the base. Some explicit examples and a treatment of the…
In this paper, we study the Dirac cohomology of minimal representations for all real reductive groups G. The Dirac indices of these representations are also studied when G is of equal rank, giving some counterexamples of a conjecture of…
The distribution of individual Dirac eigenvalues is derived by relating them to the density and higher eigenvalue correlation functions. The relations are general and hold for any gauge theory coupled to fermions under certain conditions…
In this article, various approaches to calculate covariant expressions for the bilinears of Dirac spinors are presented. For this purpose, algebraic equations defining Dirac spinors are discussed. Following that, a covariant approach for…
We analyze the dispersive properties of a Dirac system perturbed with a magnetic field. We prove a general virial identity; as applications, we obtain smoothing and endpoint Strichartz estimates which are optimal from the decay point of…
Using the method of Witten deformation, we express the basic index of a transversal Dirac operator over a Riemannian foliation as the sum of integers associated to the critical leaf closures of a given foliated bundle map.
In this paper we present a formula for the index of a pseudodifferential operator with invertible principal symbol in the extended Heisenberg calculus of Epstein and Melrose. Our results build on the work we did in a previous paper…
In this paper we study the interior transmission problem and transmission eigenvalues for multiplicative perturbations of linear partial differential operator of order $\ge 2$ with constant real coefficients. Under suitable growth…
We calculate the Fourier transform of a spherically symmetric exponential function. Our evaluation is much simpler than the known one. We use the polar coordinates and reduce the Fourier transform to the integral of a rational function of…
The anomalous spin transport coefficients of gapped Dirac electrons are studied with application to a quasi-two-dimensional organic conductor $\alpha$-(BETS)$_2$I$_3$ in mind. In the presence of a gap induced by spin-orbit interaction, we…
The triality properties of Dirac spinors are studied, including a construction of the algebra of (complexified) biquaternion. It is proved that there exists a vector-representation of Dirac spinors. The massive Dirac equation in the…
In this largely expository paper we give a self-contained treatment of the Dirac operator. Emphasizing the algebraic point of view we first sketch the necessary prerequisites from Clifford algebras and their representations and then define…
