General Wigner Rotations in $D$ Dimensions

High Energy Physics - Theory 2017-12-29 v2

Abstract

We construct general Wigner rotations for both massive and massless particles in DD-dimensional spacetime. We work out the explicit expressions of these Wigner rotations for arbitrary Lorentz transformations. We study the relation between the electromagnetic gauge invariance and the non-uniqueness of Wigner rotation.
