Exact solutions of the Dirac equation, a system of four partial differential equations, are rare. The vast majority of them are for highly symmetric stationary systems. Moreover, only a handful of solutions for time dependent dynamics…
We derive a relativistic-covariant spin operator for massive case directly from space-time symmetry in Minkowski space-time and investigate the physical properties of a derived spin operator. In the derivation we require only two…
Instead of using local field equations - like the Dirac equation for spin-1/2 and the Klein-Gordon equation for spin-0 particles - one could try to use non-local field equations in order to describe scattering processes. The latter…
Spinor gravity is a functional integral formulation of gravity based only on fundamental spinor fields. The vielbein and metric arise as composite objects. Due to the lack of local Lorentz-symmetry new invariants in the effective…

The relativistic three-body problem is approached via the extension of the SL(2,C) group to the Sp(4,C) one. In terms of Sp(4,C) spinors, a Dirac-like equation with three-body kinematics is composed. After introducing the linear in…
We develop a generalization of the Wigner scheme for constructing the relativistic fields corresponding to irreducible representations of the four-dimensional Poincar\'{e} group with infinite spin. The fields are parameterized by a vector…

Dirac's equation of the electron will be discussed by using quaternions as the basis of a new formalism which seems to be very well adapted to the problem. The transformation properties of the equations as well as the invariant and…
Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations are the motion equations for relativistic particles with spin 0 (so-called scalar particles) and 1/2 (electron/positron) respectively. For a free particle, the Dirac equation is derived from the Klein-Gordon…
