We review recent progress on operator mixing in the light of the theory of canonical forms for linear systems of differential equations and, in particular, of the Poincar\'e-Dulac theorem. We show that the matrix $A(g) =…
The deformed Dirac equation invariant under the $\kappa$-Poincar\'{e}-Hopf quantum algebra in the context of minimal and scalar couplings under spin and pseudospin symmetries limits is considered. The $\kappa$-deformed Pauli-Dirac…

Dirac's approach to gauge symmetries is discussed. We follow closely the steps that led him from his conjecture concerning the generators of gauge transformations {\it at a given time} --to be contrasted with the common view of gauge…
In this work we analyze the low energy nonrelativistic limit of Dirac theory in the framework of effective field theory. By integrating out the high energy modes of Dirac field, given in terms of a combination of the two-components Weyl…
We construct a universal spin$_c$ Dirac operator on $\mathbb{C}P^n$ built by projecting $su(n+1)$ left actions and prove its equivalence to the standard right action Dirac operator on $\mathbb{C}P^n$. The eigenvalue problem is solved and…
This paper offers educational insight into the Dirac equation, examining its historical context and contrasting it with the earlier Schr\"odinger and Klein-Gordon (KG) equations. The comparison highlights their Lorentz transformation…
We first derive without recourse to the Dirac equation the two-component Majorana equation with a mass term by a direct linearization of the relativistic dispersion relation of a massive particle. Thereby, we make only use of the complex…

One dimensional Dirac operators $$ L_{bc}(v) \, y = i \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 0 & -1 \end{pmatrix} \frac{dy}{dx} + v(x) y, \quad y = \begin{pmatrix} y_1 y_2 \end{pmatrix}, \quad x\in[0,\pi],$$ considered with $L^2$-potentials $ v(x) =…
We study the basic quantum mechanics for a fully general set of Dirac matrices in a curved spacetime by extending Pauli's method. We further extend this study to three versions of the Dirac equation: the standard (Dirac-Fock-Weyl or DFW)…

It has long been speculated that the Dirac or, more generally, the Dirac-Pauli spinor in the Foldy-Wouthuysen (FW) representation should behave like a classical relativistic spinor in the low-energy limit when the probability of…
The paper is concerned with the Bari basis property of a boundary value problem associated in $L^2([0,1]; \mathbb{C}^2)$ with the following $2 \times 2$ Dirac-type equation for $y = {\rm col}(y_1, y_2)$: $$L_U(Q) y =-i B^{-1} y' + Q(x) y =…
We study Dirac operators acting on sections of a Clifford module ${\cal E}$\ over a Riemannian manifold $M$. We prove the intrinsic decomposition formula for their square, which is the generalisation of the well-known formula due to…
In this work we produce a classical Lagrangian description of an elementary spinning particle which satisfies Dirac equation when quantized. We call this particle a classical Dirac particle. We analyze in detail the way we arrive to this…
A new proof of the conformal covariance of the powers of the flat Dirac operator is obtained. The proof uses their relation with the Knapp-Stein intertwining operators for the spinorial principal series. We also treat the compact picture,…

We show that the first order form of the Schrodinger equation proposed in [1] can be obtained from the Dirac equation in the non-relativistic limit. We also show that the Pauli Hamiltonian is obtained from this equation by requiring local…
We combine a pair of independent Weyl fermions to compose a Dirac fermion on the four-dimensional Euclidean lattice. The obtained Dirac operator is antihermitian and does not reproduce anomaly under the usual chiral transformation. To…
