Bearing in mind the Lounesto spinor classification, we connect the expansion coefficients of well behaved fermionic quantum field, i.e., a local field within a full Lorentz covariant theory, with and only with a given subclass of Type-2…
Following the program of investigation of alternative spinor duals potentially applicable to fermions beyond the standard model, we demonstrate explicitly the existence of several well-defined spinor duals. Going further we define a mapping…
We study the fermion propagator in a spatially varying classical background field, and show that, contrary to common wisdom, it may get nontrivial gradient corrections already at the first order in derivative expansion. This occurs whenever…
Within the Pauli-Villars regularization technique the fermion propagator is studied in the framework of Schwinger-Dyson equations in the Euclidean space. Making the generalization of Fukuda and Kugo proposals, the analytical continuation is…
In this paper, we will calculate the bosonic as well as fermionic propagators under classical homogeneous and constant magnetic and electric fields in a Euclidean space. For this, we will reassess the Ritus' method for calculating the…
A self-contained review on spin-half mass dimension one fermions and their higher-spin generalizations is presented. Starting from the two-component left-handed Weyl spinors, the Dirac spinors and Elko (eigenspinors of the charge…
In this paper, we define a new spinor classification that encompasses the recently proposed spin-half bosons with mass dimension three-half. As it will be shown, these particles, which are governed by a first-order equation and consequently…

A question is addressed pertinent to models of fundamental fermions in a world of high dimensions. Tex extra compactified dimensions are needed to accommodate quarks and leptons of each generation in a single spinor space carrying a…
Using the Funtional Integrals Formulation is developes a self-consistent mean field expansion to evolution operators of a system composed by two subsystems. This is a general expansion and can be generalized for more of two subsystems,…

In this letter we try to answer those of the open questions of the Standard model which concern the appearance of families, mass protection mechanism and the Yukawa couplings - by using the approach (proposed by one of us), which suggests a…
The article proposes the description of internal spaces of fermion (quarks and leptons and antiquarks and antileptons) and boson (photons, weak bosons, gluons, gravitons and scalars) second quantized fields in a unique way if they all are…
In recent years, the calculation of the first non-vanishing order of the metric 2-point function or graviton propagator in a semiclassical limit has evolved as a standard test for the credibility of a proposed spin foam model. The existing…
Generalised Fierz-Pauli mass terms allow to describe massive higher-spin fields on flat background by means of simple quadratic deformations of the corresponding geometric, massless Lagrangians. In this framework there is no need for…
We further explore the idea that physics takes place in Clifford space which should be considered as a generalization of spacetime. Following the old observation that spinors can be represented as members of left ideals of Clifford algebra,…
We extend our new approach for numeric evaluation of Feynman diagrams to integrals that include fermionic and vector propagators. In this initial discussion we begin by deriving the Sinc function representation for the propagators of…
In previous work, a lattice scalar propagator was rigorously defined in $d=1$ flat space and shown to equal the known Klein-Gordon propagator of QFT. This work generalizes this lattice propagator to manifolds whose universal cover is the…
We give a pedagogical introduction to the physics of large extra dimensions. We focus our discussion on minimal extensions of the Standard Model in which gauge fields may propagate in a single, compact extra dimension while the fermions are…
We explicitly construct Green functions for a field in an arbitrary representation of gauge group propagating in noncommutative instanton backgrounds based on the ADHM construction. The propagators for spinor and vector fields can be…
