A peculiar representation of the Lorentz group is suggested as a starting point for a consistent approach to relativistic quantum theory.
Developing recently proposed constructions for the description of particles in the $(1/2,0)\oplus (0,1/2)$ representation space, we derive the second-order equations. The similar ones were proposed in the sixties and the seventies in order…
Lorentz's group represented by the hypercomplex system of numbers, which is based on dirac matrices, is investigated. This representation is similar to the space rotation representation by quaternions. This representation has several…
This is first of the two invited lectures presented (by D. V. Ahluwalia) at the ``XVII International School of Theoretical Physics: Standard Model and Beyond' 93.'' The text is essentially based on a recent publication by the present…
The present work is a brief review of the recent development in the relativistic quantum mechanics in the $(1/2)\oplus (0,1/2)$ representation space. It can be useful for graduate students in particle physics and quantum field theory.

The problems connected with a choice of the spinorial basis in the $(j,0)\oplus (0,j)$ representation space are discussed. It is shown to have profound significance in relativistic quantum theory. From the methodological viewpoint this fact…

In this work we review the derivation of Dirac and Weinberg equations based on a ``principle of indistinguishability'' for the (j,0) and (0,j) irreducible representations (irreps) of the Homogeneous Lorentz Group (HLG). We generalize this…
A concise discussion of the 3-dimensional irreducible (1,0) and (0,1) representations of the restricted Lorentz group and their application to the description of the electromagnetic field is given. It is shown that a mass term is in…
A variation of Dirac equation based on SO(2,1) group is suggested for treating low dimensional systems in the three dimensional x,y,t space. Non-unitary representations are developed in an analogous way to those used in the ordinary Dirac…
As a continuation of previous investigations, the formalism used there is extended to the case when an external electric field is present and the covariant formulation is performed again. The equation system obtained allows no restriction…
A universal description of particles with spins j greater or equal one , transforming in (j,0)+(0,j), is developed by means of representation specific second order differential wave equations without auxiliary conditions and in covariant…
These are intended to be review notes on emergent symmetries, i.e., symmetries which manifest themselves in specific sectors of energy in many systems. The emphasis is on the physical aspects rather than computation methods. We include some…
Dirac spinors are important objects in the current literature, the algebraic structure presented in the text-books is a general method to write it, however, not unique. The purpose of the present work is to show an alternative approach to…
The purpose of this comment is to clarify two points related to the Dirac equation. First, the Lorentz structure of the potential and its connection with the Klein paradox. Second, the connection between the number of space dimensions and…
We propose the fundamental and two dimensional representation of the Lorentz groups on a (3+1)-dimensional hypercubic lattice, from which representations of higher dimensions can be constructed. For the unitary representation of the…
The nature of space-time at high energy is an open question and the link between extra-dimensional theories with the physics of the Standard Model can not be established in a unique way. The compactification path is not unique and…
A realistic interpretation of Schroedinger and Dirac equations for density matrices is proposed, in which the difference between the position arguments of the density matrix is considered as an objective extra space dimension. "Particle"…
This paper suggests a generalization of the Born--Infeld action (1932) for the case of electroweak and gravitational fields. Basic notions one deals with are Dirac matrices, $\gamma_{a}$, and dimensionless covariant derivatives, $\pi_{a} =…
