The use of complexified quaternions and $i$-complex geometry in formulating the Dirac equation allows us to give interesting geometric interpretations hidden in the conventional matrix-based approach.
We perform a one-dimensional complexified quaternionic version of the Dirac equation based on $i$-complex geometry. The problem of the missing complex parameters in Quaternionic Quantum Mechanics with $i$-complex geometry is overcome by a…
The Dirac equation with Lorentz violation involves additional coefficients and yields a fourth-order polynomial that must be solved to yield the dispersion relation. The conventional method of taking the determinant of $4\times 4$ matrices…
Dirac's equation of the electron will be discussed by using quaternions as the basis of a new formalism which seems to be very well adapted to the problem. The transformation properties of the equations as well as the invariant and…
We discuss the use of the variational principle within quaternionic quantum mechanics. This is non-trivial because of the non commutative nature of quaternions. We derive the Dirac Lagrangian density corresponding to the two-component Dirac…
Dirac's equations are formulated in a consistent way by using only elements from each of R, C, and H. In H, the quaternions, the symmetry resulting from a "single" conjugation (i, j, or k) results in three conserved currents - possibly…
The classical Hamilton equations are reinterpreted by means of complex analysis, in a non standard way. This suggests a natural extension of the Hamilton equations to the quaternionic case, extension which coincides with the one introduced…
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…
It is shown that the squared operation of the Dirac equation which is widely applied may create new solutions and moreover may change the inner nature of original equation. Some illustrating examples are considered as well.
We call attention to the unusual properties that the 4 dimensional solutions for a modified Fueter-Dirac equations satisfy: In a coordinate-free, constant-free and strictly mathematical way it is possible to show that all the solutions for…
Previously (A. Akhmeteli, J. Math. Phys., v. 52, p. 082303 (2011)), the Dirac equation in an arbitrary electromagnetic field was shown to be generally equivalent to a fourth-order equation for just one component of the four-component Dirac…
It is shown that the Dirac approach to Hamiltonization of singular theories can be slightly modified in such a way that primary Dirac constraints do not appear in the process. According to the modified scheme, Hamiltonian formulation of…
Consider a formally self-adjoint first order linear differential operator acting on pairs (2-columns) of complex-valued scalar fields over a 4-manifold without boundary. We examine the geometric content of such an operator and show that it…
Starting from an interpretation of the classical-quantum correspondence, we derive the Dirac equation by factorizing the algebraic relation satisfied by the classical Hamiltonian, before applying the correspondence. This derivation applies…
We write the Dirac equation in curved 4-dimensional Lorentzian spacetime using concepts from the analysis of partial differential equations as opposed to geometric concepts.
Quaternion Dirac equation has been analyzed and its supersymetrization has been discussed consistently. It has been shown that the quaternion Dirac equation automatically describes the spin structure with its spin up and spin down…
As a continuation of previous investigations, the formalism used there is extended to the case when an external electric field is present and the covariant formulation is performed again. The equation system obtained allows no restriction…
Differential geomtrical methods for deriving the Dirac equation in Curved Spacetime are presented. Einstein's field equation is applied in a novel manner; in the most current standard reference, Birrell and Davies, 1994 [1], the suggestions…
The novel forms of the split octonionic Dirac equation and its corresponding Lagrangian are derived using symbolic computing techniques.
Most of theoretical physics is based on the mathematics of functions of a real or a complex variable; yet we frequently are drawn to try extending our reach to include quaternions. The non-commutativity of the quaternion algebra poses…
