EPR experiment on $K^0-\bar{K}^0$ system in 1998\cite{1} strongly hints that one should use operators $\hat{E}_c=-i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}$ and $\hat{\bf p}_c=i\hbar\nabla$ for the wavefunction (WF) of antiparticle. Further…
Discrete spacetime symmetries of parity P or reflection R, and time-reversal T, act naively as $\mathbb{Z}_2$-involutions in the passive transformation on the spacetime coordinates; but together with a charge conjugation C, the total…

The necessary appearance of Clifford algebras in the quantum description of fermions has prompted us to re-examine the fundamental role played by the quaternion Clifford algebra, C(0,2). This algebra is essentially the geometric algebra…
Is there more to Dirac's gamma matrices than meets the eye? It turns out that gamma zero can be factorized into a product of three operators. This revelation facilitates the expansion of Dirac's space-time algebra to Clifford algebra…
We introduce a spacetime discretization of the Dirac equation that has the form of a quantum automaton and that is invariant upon changing the representation of the Clifford algebra, as the Dirac equation itself. Our derivation follows…

\noindent In our contribution to this volume we deal with \emph{discrete} symmetries: these are symmetries based upon groups with a discrete set of elements (generally a set of elements that can be enumerated by the positive integers). In…

Starting from Wigner's symmetry representation theorem, we give a general account of discrete symmetries (parity P, charge conjugation C, time-reversal T), focusing on fermions in Quantum Field Theory. We provide the rules of transformation…
Discrete charge, parity, and time symmetries (C, P, and T) of quantized fermion states are extended by a triality symmetry (t), producing the CPTt Group, transforming between three generations of fermions.
The Carroll algebra is constructed as the $c\to0$ limit of the Poincare algebra and is associated to symmetries on generic null surfaces. In this paper, we begin investigations of Carrollian fermions or fermions defined on generic null…
We suggest Clifford algebra as a useful simplifying language for present quantum dynamics. Clifford algebras arise from representations of the permutation groups as they arise from representations of the rotation groups. Aggregates using…
It is shown that discrete-time quantum walks can be used to digitize, i.e., to time discretize fermionic models of continuous-time lattice gauge theory. The resulting discrete-time dynamics is thus not only manifestly unitary, but also…
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is in such good agreement with experiment that it is still accepted as providing an accurate model of reality. Nevertheless, its algebraic foundations are in need of repair. Chirality is shown to…
In this paper, we present a revision of the discrete symmetries (C, P, T, CP, and CPT) within an approach that treats 2-component Weyl spinors as the fundamental building blocks. In particular, we show that we can define transformations for…
