In this paper we study global nonlinear stability for the Dirac-Klein-Gordon system in two and three space dimensions for small and regular initial data. In the case of two space dimensions, we consider the Dirac-Klein-Gordon system with a…

Time evolution is an indivisible part in any physics theory. Usually, people are accustomed to think that the universe is a fixed background and the system itself evolves step by step in time. However, Yakir Aharonov challenges this view…

The hydrodynamic formulation of the Dirac equation has historically been hindered by the inability to close the system of physical variables without resorting to infinite moment hierarchies. We resolve this longstanding issue by developing…

A time-changed discretization for the Dirac equation is proposed. More precisely, we consider a Dirac equation with discrete space and continuous time perturbed by a time-dependent diffusion term $\sigma^2Ht^{2H-1}$ that seamlessly…

The results of a study of Dirac's Hamiltonian for a point electron in the zero-gravity Kerr--Newman spacetime are reported; here, "zero-gravity" means G to 0, where G is Newton's constant of universal gravitation, and the limit is effected…
