We provide a recipe for building explicit representations of the real Clifford algebras once an explicit family is given in dimensions $1$ through $4$. We further give an explicit construction of spin coordinate systems for a given real…

This paper discusses a framework to parametrize and decompose operator matrix elements for particles with higher spin $(j > 1/2)$ using chiral representations of the Lorentz group, i.e. the $(j,0)$ and $(0,j)$ representations and their…

Representations of primes by simple quadratic forms, such as $\pm a^2\pm qb^2$, is a subject that goes back to Fermat, Lagrange, Legendre, Euler, Gauss and many others. We are interested in a comprehensive list of such results, for $q\le…

We prove a local-global principle for representations of binary by quaternary quadratic forms. One of the main ingredients is a recent measure rigidity result of Einsiedler and Lindenstrauss for diagonalizable actions on quotients of…

We investigate the average number of representations of a positive integer as the sum of $k + 1$ perfect $k$-th powers of primes. We extend recent results of Languasco and the last Author, which dealt with the case $k = 2$ [6] and $k = 3$…

A triangular form is defined to be an integer-valued quadratic polynomial of the form $a_1P_3(x_1)+a_2P_3(x_2)+\cdots+a_kP_3(x_k)$ where $a_i's$ are positive integers and $P_3(x)=x(x+1)/2$. A triangular form is called regular if it…

Spinor structure is understood as a totality of tensor products of biquaternion algebras, and the each tensor product is associated with an irreducible representation of the Lorentz group. A so-defined algebraic structure allows one to…

In this paper we prove the entireness of the Spinor L function of certain generic representations of the group GSp(4) over a totally real field.

In this paper, we study the representations of integral quadratic polynomials. Particularly, it is shown that there are only finitely many equivalence classes of positive ternary universal integral quadratic polynomials, and that there are…

Using modular forms we determine formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer by diagonal octonary quadratic forms with coefficients $1$, $2$, $3$ or $6$.

We determine explicit formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ by quaternary quadratic forms with coefficients $1$, $2$, $5$ or $10$. We use a modular forms approach.

An integer of the form $T_x=\frac{x(x+1)}2$ for some positive integer $x$ is called a triangular number. A ternary triangular form $aT_{x}+bT_{y}+cT_{z}$ for positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ is called regular if it represents every positive…

We formulate Lorentz group representations in which ordinary complex numbers are replaced by linear functions of real quaternions and introduce dotted and undotted quaternionic one-dimensional spinors. To extend to parity the space-time…

We investigate the spin-statistics connection in arbitrary dimensions for hermitian spinor or tensor quantum fields with a rotationally invariant bilinear Lagrangian density. We use essentially the same simple method as for space dimension…

We discuss an unusual phenomenon in (integral) positive ternary quadratic forms. We also describe an interesting pairing of genera of ternary forms.

In this paper we give a geometrically invariant spinorial representation of surfaces in four-dimensional space forms. In the Euclidean space, we obtain a representation formula which generalizes the Weierstrass representation formula of…

In this paper, we investigate the interplay between positive-definite integral ternary quadratic forms and class numbers. We generalize a result of Jones relating the theta function for the genus of a quadratic form to the Hurwitz class…

In this paper, we derive a general formula to express the product of three theta functions as a linear combination of other products of three theta functions. Moreover, we use the main formula to deduce a general formula for the product of…

Using a genealogically ordered infinite regular language, we know how to represent an interval of R. Numbers having an ultimately periodic representation play a special role in classical numeration systems. The aim of this paper is to…

A celebrated result by Hilbert says that every real nonnegative ternary quartic is a sum of three squares. We show more generally that every nonnegative quadratic form on a real projective variety $X$ of minimal degree is a sum of…
