It is proposed to make formulation of second quantizing a bosonic theory by generalizing the method of filling the Dirac negative energy sea for fermions. We interpret that the correct vacuum for the bosonic theory is obtained by adding…

Bosonic formulation of the negative energy sea, so called Dirac sea, is proposed by constructing a hole theory for bosons as a new formulation of the second quantization of bosonic fields. The original idea of Dirac sea for fermions, where…

We use our previous idea, in which at first we perform a naive second quantization of both negative and positive energy for the Klein-Gordon equation analogous to the unfilled Dirac sea for fermions, to study as a playground this naive…

We consider the long standing problem in field theories of bosons that the boson vacuum does not consist of a `sea', unlike the fermion vacuum. We show with the help of supersymmetry considerations that the boson vacuum indeed does also…

We propose a hole theory for bosons, in which, analogous to fermions, a hole produced by the annihilation of one negative energy boson is an anti-particle. We show that the boson vacuum indeed also consists of a sea in which all negative…

In bosonic formulation of the negative energy sea, so called Dirac sea presented in the preceding paper [arXiv:hep-th/0603242], one of the crucial points is how to construct a positive definite inner product in the negative energy states,…

We consider introducing the Dirac sea in a quantum cellular automata model of fermions in discrete spacetime which approximates the Dirac equation in the continuum limit. However, if we attempt to fill up the `negative' energy states, we…

Using our earlier formalism of extending the idea of the Dirac sea (negative energy states) to also for Bosons, we construct a formalism for Bosons which are their own antiparticles. Since antiparticles in formalisms with a Dirac sea are at…

An electroweak-like theory of a broken chiral symmetry that is constructed by the collective modes of fermion pairs from four fermion interactions of one lepton generation is presented. The products of Dirac spinors lead to the separation…

We introduce and analyze a system of relativistic fermions in a space-time continuum, which interact via an action principle as previously considered in a discrete space-time. The model is defined by specifying the vacuum as a sum of Dirac…

In this survey article, we explain a few ideas behind the fermionic projector approach and summarize recent results which clarify the connection to quantum field theory. The fermionic projector is introduced, which describes the physical…

Building on previous work [N. Read, Phys. Rev. B 58, Z. Dong and T. Senthil, 16262 (1998); Phys. Rev. B 102, 205126 (2020)] on the system of bosons at filling factor $\nu = 1$, we derive the Dirac composite fermion theory for a half-filled…

A quantum Dirac field theory with no divergences of vacuum energy is presented. The vacuum energy divergence is eliminated by removing a extra degree of freedom of the Dirac fields. The conditions for removing the extra degree of freedom,…
