Tensors or {\em multi-way arrays} are functions of three or more indices $(i,j,k,\cdots)$ -- similar to matrices (two-way arrays), which are functions of two indices $(r,c)$ for (row,column). Tensors have a rich history, stretching over…

In this paper we formulate Maxwell and Dirac theories as an already unified theory (in the sense of Misner and Wheeler). We introduce Dirac spinors as "Dirac square root" of the Faraday bivector, and use this in order to find a spinorial…

According to Dirac's theory of the positron, an electromagnetic field tends to create pairs of particles which leads to a change of Maxwell's equations in the vacuum. These changes are calculated in the special case that no real electrons…
