Despite its tremendous success, the Standard Model of particle physics does not explain why the weak interaction breaks chiral symmetry. Various unified theories got us closer to an answer, but too often the explanation consists of labeling…
By developing the method of multipliers, we establish sufficient conditions on the magnetic field and the complex, matrix-valued electric potential, which guarantee that the corresponding system of Schr\"odinger operators has no point…
Anderson's theorem asserting, that symmetry of dynamic equations written in the relativisitically covariant form is determined by symmetry of its absolute objects, is applied to the free Dirac equation. Dirac matrices are the only absolute…
Pascal's Theorem gives a synthetic geometric condition for six points $a,\ldots,f$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$ to lie on a conic. Namely, that the intersection points $\overline{ab}\cap\overline{de}$, $\overline{af}\cap\overline{dc}$,…
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…
We find all spin operators for a Dirac particle satisfying the following very general conditions: (i) spin does not convert positive (negative) energy states into negative (positive) energy states, (ii) spin is a pseudo-vector, and (iii)…
We introduce a Dirac operator $D$ for the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$, as an element of the tensor product of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ with the Clifford algebra on two generators. We study the properties of $D$, including an analogue…
We give an algebraic formulation based on Clifford algebras and algebraic spinors for quantum information. In this context, logic gates and concepts such as chirality, charge conjugation, parity and time reversal are introduced and explored…
The internal degrees of freedom of fermions are in the spin-charge-family theory described by the Clifford algebra objects, which are superposition of an odd number of $\gamma^a$'s. Arranged into irreducible representations of…
The functional calculus for normal elements in $C^*$-algebras is an important tool of analysis. We consider polynomials $p(a,a^*)$ for elements $a$ with small self-commutator norm $\|[a,a^*]\| \le \delta$ and show that many properties of…
The problem of a spin 1 charged particle with electromagnetic polarizability, obeying a generalized 15-component quantum mechanical equation, is investigated in presence of the external Coulomb potential. With the use of the Wigner's…
If $A$ is a $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra and $a$ is a strictly positive element of $A$ then for every compact subset $K$ of the complete regularization $\mathrm{Glimm}(A)$ of $\mathrm{Prim}(A)$ there exists $\alpha > 0$ such that $K\subset…
This is a short review of the algebraic properties of Clifford algebras and spinors. Their use in the description of fundamental physics (elementary particles) is also summarized. Lecture given at the ICCA7 conference, Toulouse (23/05/2005)
The index theorems relate the gauge field and metric on a manifold to the solution of the Dirac equation on it. In the standard approach, the Dirac operator must be massless in order to make the chirality operator well-defined. In physics,…
A relation among the form factors of $<D \mid A_\mu \mid D^*>$ at $q^2 \to 0$ is derived. It is verified to lowest order in both the $1/m_c$ expansion and the expansion in number of derivatives using the effective lagrangian that…
The use of complexified quaternions and $i$-complex geometry in formulating the Dirac equation allows us to give interesting geometric interpretations hidden in the conventional matrix-based approach.
It is shown that the 16-dimensional Clifford algebra over any field has no one 15-dimensional subalgebra. Canonical bases are used throughout the determination.
A description of elementary particles should be based on irreducible representations of the Poincar\'e group. In the theory of massive representations of the full Poincar\'e group there are essentially four different cases. One of them…
A Planck-scale model that includes quantum chromodynamics and goes beyond it, is tested against observations. The model is based on a single fundamental principle. Starting with Dirac's proposal describing spin 1/2 particles as tethered…
Recent studies of the topological properties of a general class of lattice Dirac operators are reported. This is based on a specific algebraic realization of the Ginsparg-Wilson relation in the form…
