We establish global existence and derive sharp pointwise decay estimates of solutions to cubic Dirac and Dirac-Klein-Gordon systems on a curved background, close to the Minkowski spacetime. By squaring the Dirac operator, we reduce the…

As a preparation for its quantization in the loop formalism, the 2-dimensional gravitation model of Jackiw and Teitelboim is analysed in the classical canonical formalism. The dynamics is of pure constraints as it is well-known. A partial…

The so-called Dirac oscillator was proposed as a modification of the free Dirac equation which reproduces many of the properties of the simple harmonic oscillator but accompanied by a strong spin-orbit coupling term. It has yet to be…
