We study the theory of the (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) and (1,0)+(0,1) representations in the helicity basis. The helicity eigenstates are not the parity eigenstates. This is in accordance with the idea of Berestetskii, Lifshitz and Pitaevskii. The…
We study the theory of the Lorentz group (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) representation in the helicity basis of the corresponding 4-spinors. As Berestetski, Lifshitz and Pitaevskii mentioned, the helicity eigenstates are not the parity eigenstates.…
We study the theory of the (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) representation in helicity basis. Helicity eigenstates are not the parity eigenstates. This is in accordance with the consideration of Berestetskii, Lifshitz and Pitaevskii. Relations to the…
We construct self/anti-self charge conjugate (Majorana-like) states for the (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) representation of the Lorentz group, and their analogs for higher spins within the quantum field theory. The problem of the basis rotations and that…
We study the discrete symmetries (P,C and T) on the kinematical level within the extended Poincare Group. On the basis of the Silagadze research, we investigate the question of the definitions of the discrete symmetry operators both on the…
We write solutions of relativistic quantum equations explicitly in the helicity basis for S=1/2 and S=1. We present the analyses of relations between Dirac-like and Majorana-like field operators. Several interesting features of bradyonic…
Lorentz transformation of the reduced helicity density matrix for a massive spin 1/2 particle is investigated in the framework of relativistic quantum information theory for the first time. The corresponding helicity entropy is calculated,…
By considering the irreducible representations of the Lorentz group, an analysis of the different spin-2 waves is presented. In particular, the question of the helicity is discussed. It is concluded that, although from the point of view of…
We investigate the Lorentz transformation of the reduced helicity density matrix for a pair of massive spin 1/2 particles. The corresponding Wootters concurrence shows no invariant meaning, which implies that we can generate helicity…
We calculate the helicity and chirality effects experienced by a spin-1/2 particle subjected to classical electromagnetic and gravitational fields. The helicity evolution is then determined in the non-relativistic, relativistic, and…
The principal series of unitary representations of the Lorentz group has been considered in the helicity basis. Decompositions of tensor products of the spinspaces are studied in the framework of projective representations of the symmetric…
A careful ab initio construction of the finite-mass (1/2,1/2) representation space of the Lorentz group reveals it to be a spin-parity multiplet. In general, it does not lend itself to a single-spin interpretation. We find that the…
In this essay, an {\it ab initio} study of the self/anti-self charge conjugate $(1/2,\,0)\oplus(0,\,1/2)$ representation space is presented. Incompatibility of self/anti-self charge conjugation with helicity eigenstates and gauge…
We present an analytical study of the spin projection operator of the spin state and the helicity state. It is pointed out emphatically that the former is Lorentz covariant, while the latter is a nonrelativistic two-component operator. In…
It is an easily deduced fact that any four-component spin 1/2 state for a massive particle is a linear combination of pairs of two-component simultaneous rotation eigenstates, where `simultaneous' means the eigenspinors of a given pair…
We construct self/anti-self charge conjugate (Majorana-like) states for the (1/2, 0)+(0, 1/2) representation of the Lorentz group, and their analogs for higher spins within the quantum field theory. The problem of the basis rotations and…
We construct the covariant, spinor sets of relativistic wave equations for a massless field on the basis of the two copies of the R-deformed Heisenberg algebra. For the finite-dimensional representations of the algebra they give a universal…
In the present article we investigate the spin-1/2 and spin-1 cases in different bases. Next, we look for relations with the Majorana-like field operator. We show explicitly incompatibility of the Majorana anzatzen with the Dirac-like field…
Relativistic spin 1/2, as represented by Susskind's 1977 discretization of the Dirac equation on a spatial lattice, is shown to follow from basic, not typically relativistic but essentially quantum theoretic assumptions: that position…
In $D=2+1$ dimensions there are two dual descriptions of parity singlets of helicity $\pm 1$, namely the self-dual model of first-order (in derivatives) and the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory of second-order. Correspondingly, for helicity $\pm…
