We analyze the possibility of description of D-dimensional massless particles by the Lagrangians linear on world-line curvatures k_i, {\cal S}=\sum_{i=1}^Nc_i\int k_i d{\tilde s}. We show, that the nontrivial classical solutions of this…

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…

A Clifford Space is counted to be a tempting approach to unify both micro-physics and macro-physics simultaneously. Such a tendency may be found in the realm of replacing vectors with poly-vectors. Accordingly, the problem of motion becomes…

It is shown that dynamics of D+2 elements of the (super)diffeomorphism group in one (1+1 for the super) dimension describes the D - dimensional (spinning) massless relativistic particles. The coordinates of this elements (D+2 einbeins, D+2…

We consider dynamics of massless particle in 2d spacetimes with constant curvature. We analyze different examples of spacetime. Dynamical integrals are constructed from spacetime symmetry related to $sl(2.{\bf R})$ algebra. Mass-shell…

Clifford number formalism for Maxwell equations is considered. The Clifford imaginary unit for space-time is introduced as coordinate independent form of fully antisymmetric fourth-rank tensor. The representation of Maxwell equations in…

We examine the structure of the Clifford algebra associated with a Hermitian bilinear form and apply the result to a dynamical model of the relativistic point particle. The dynamics of the particle is described by a Dirac spinor with…

This paper unifies the concept of kinematic mappings by using geometric algebras. We present a method for constructing kinematic mappings for certain Cayley-Klein geometries. These geometries are described in an algebraic setting by the…

A kinetic model for the dynamics of collisionless spin neutral particles in a spacetime with torsion is proposed. The fundamental matter field is the kinetic density $f(x,u,s)$ of particles with four-velocity $u$ and four-spin $s$. The…

We discuss the equations of motion of test particles for a version of Kaluza-Klein theory where the cylinder condition is not imposed. The metric tensor of the five-dimensional manifold is allowed to depend on the fifth coordinate. This is…

Systems of equations are invariant under "polydimensional transformations" which reshuffle the geometry such that what is a line or a plane is dependent upon the frame of reference. This leads us to propose an extension of Clifford calculus…

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.

We factorize the space-time coordinates of Minkowski space into Weyl spinors with components in a split Clifford algebra. Poisson brackets are defined for spinor-valued canonical variables and applied to the quantization of point particles…

Spin of elementary particles is the only kinematic degree of freedom not having classical corre- spondence. It arises when seeking for the finite-dimensional representations of the Lorentz group, which is the only symmetry group of…

The 4-dimensional model of a massless particle with rigidity whose Lagrangian is proportional to its world-line curvature is reformulated in terms of spinor and twistor variables. We begin with a first-order Lagrangian that is equivalent to…

Partial flag varieties arise in the context of massless scattering kinematics. They can be associated to both spinor-helicity variables and momentum twistor variables in two separate yet natural ways. Here we report on evidence at five and…

Gauge-invariant twistor variables are found for the massive spinning particle with N-extended local worldline supersymmetry, in spacetime dimensions D=3,4,6. The twistor action is manifestly Lorentz invariant but the anticommuting spin…

A new approach to relativistic mechanics is proposed, suitable to describe dynamics of different kinds of relativistic particles. Mathematically it is based on an application of the recent geometric theory of nonholonomic systems on fibred…

We investigate the fully general class of non-expanding, non-twisting and shear-free D-dimensional geometries using the invariant form of geodesic deviation equation which describes the relative motion of free test particles. We show that…

We propose a SUSY variant of the action for a massless spinning particles via the inclusion of twistor variables. The action is constructed to be invariant under SUSY transformations and $\tau$-reparametrizations even when an interaction…
