We consider a natural form of unified theory of gravity and electromagnetism which was somehow missed at the time of intense search for such an unification, and was noticed only in 1978 but remained quite unknown. The basic idea of this…

We reproduce Chang's duality condition in a regularized $\phi^4_{1+1}$ theory quantized on a light front. The regularization involves higher derivatives in the Lagrangian, renders the model finite in the ultraviolet, and does not require…

We argue that quaternions form a natural language for the description of quantum-mechanical wavefunctions with spin. We use the quaternionic spinor formalism which is in one-to-one correspondence with the usual spinor language. No…
