We consider the theory of spinor fields written in polar form, that is the form in which the spinor components are given in terms of a module times a complex unitary phase respecting Lorentz covariance. In this formalism, spinors can be…

Here we examine the propagation of relativistic fields in spacetime using the viewpoint applied to derive the Rayleigh--Sommerfeld diffraction integral in three--dimensional space. We use this theory to find the propagators for both the…

The effective-field-theory (EFT) approach to the clustering of galaxies and other biased tracers allows for an isolation of the cosmological information that is protected by symmetries, in particular the equivalence principle, and thus is…

Strong-Field Electrodynamics (SFE) is Maxwell theory with a certain Lorentz-covariant Ohm's law which uses only the electromagnetic degrees of freedom. We show that SFE is {\it semi-dissipative}: while the dissipation rate of the…
