We present a relativistic formulation of noncommutative mechanics were the object of noncommutativity $\theta^{\mu\nu}$ is considered as an independent quantity. Its canonical conjugate momentum is also introduced, what permits to obtain an…
A relative position 4-vector is constructed for two spin-zero particles. Some advantages of this relative position over Bakamjian-Thomas are pointed out. The centre-of-mass (CM) and relative positions and momenta are an explicit realisation…
We consider a massive particle of arbitrary spin and the basis vectors that carry the unitary, irreducible representations of the Poincar\'e group. From the complex coefficients in normalizable superpositions of these basis vectors, we…
We have shown quant-ph/0206104 (Lett. Nuovo Cimento, 1972, 4, 344) that for free particles and antiparticles with mass m>0 and arbitrary spin s>0, in the framework of the Poincare group P(1,3), there exist three types of nonequivalent…
The classical motion of spinning particles can be described without employing Grassmann variables or Clifford algebras, but simply by generalizing the usual spinless theory. We only assume the invariance with respect to the Poincare' group;…
Noncommutative version of D-dimensional relativistic particle is proposed. We consider the particle interacting with the configuration space variable $\theta^{\mu\nu}(\tau)$ instead of the numerical matrix. The corresponding Poincare…
We give a unitary irreducible representation of the proper Poincar\'e group that leads to an operational version of the classical relativistic dynamics of a massive spinless particle. Unlike quantum mechanics, in this operational theory…
The proof is presented that the Poincare symmetry determines the equations of motion for massless particles of any spin in 2n-dimensional spaces, which are linear in the momentum.
The notion of position operator for massless spinning particles is discussed in some detail. The noncommutativity of coordinates is related to the gauge symmetry following from the freedom in definition of standard state in Wigner's…
Neutrino oscillation experiments presently suggest that neutrinos have a small but finite mass. If neutrinos are to have mass, there should be a Lorentz frame in which they can be brought to rest. This paper discusses how Wigner's little…
It is proven that the Poincare symmetry determines equations of motion, which are for massless particles of any spin in d-dimensional spaces linear in the momentum. The proof is made only for even d and for fields with no gauge symmetry. We…

Dirac's equation for a massless particle is conformal invariant, and accordingly has an so(4,2)invariance algebra. It is known that although Dirac's equation for a massive spin 1/2 particle is not conformal invariant, it too has an so(4,2)…
