The fact that in Minkowski space, space and time are both quantized does not have to be introduced as a new postulate in physics, but can actually be derived by combining certain features of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. This is…
Classification of quantum spinor fields according to quantum bilinear covariants is introduced in a context of quantum Clifford algebras on Minkowski spacetime. Once the bilinear covariants are expressed in terms of algebraic spinor fields,…
In the literature on quantum reference frames, the internal (relative) properties of a system are defined as those which are preserved under an arbitrary change of reference frame. For a system of quantum spins, these are all properties…

In special relativity, trajectories of particles, whether massive or massless, in 4D, can be displayed in the 3+1 Minkowski space-time manifold. On the other hand, in quantum mechanics, trajectories in phase space are not strictly defined…

Understanding the nature of time remains a key unsolved problem in science. Newton in the Principia asserted an absolute universal time that {\it `flows equably'}. Hamilton then proposed a mathematical unification of space and time within…
We examine the structure of the Clifford algebra associated with a Hermitian bilinear form and apply the result to a dynamical model of the relativistic point particle. The dynamics of the particle is described by a Dirac spinor with…

A two-sphere ("Bloch" or "Poincare") is familiar for describing the dynamics of a spin-1/2 particle or light polarization. Analogous objects are derived for unitary groups larger than SU(2) through an iterative procedure that constructs…
