From the 16-component Dirac-K\"{a}hler field theory, spinor equations for two types of massless vector photon fields with different parities have been derived. Their equivalent tensor equations in terms of the strength tensor $F_{ab}$ and…

In this paper, we provide the first systematic investigation of renormalization group properties of mass dimension one fermions described by ELKO spinors. By construction, ELKOs must be neutral under any Standard Model charge, therefore,…

We show that Majorana particles belong to the Wigner class of fermions in which the charge conjugation and the parity operators commute, rather than anticommute. Rigorously speaking, Majorana spinors do not satisfy the Dirac equation [a…

Spinor fields are considered in a generally covariant environment where they can be written in the polar form. The polar form is the one in which spinorial fields are expressed as a module times the exponential of a complex pseudo-phase,…

The quantum field operator for spin-half Elko describes a massive self-interacting fermionic dark matter candidate of mass dimension one. It has been shown that the theory has a built-in violation of the Lorentz symmetry and a well-defined…

Recently introduced massive spinors are written as 2-vectors consisting of two massless spinors with opposite helicities. With this notation a couple of relations between them can be derived easily, entirely avoiding the spinor indices. The…

General topologically invariant microscopical expressions for quantum numbers of particle-like solitons ("skyrmions") are derived for a class of (2+1)D models. Skyrmions are either half-integer spin fermions with odd electric charge or…

This review is devoted to highlight some aspects of the relevance of Majorana fermions in rigid supersymmetry breaking in four spacetime dimensions. After introducing some basic facts on spinors, and on their symmetries and reality…

We develop a spinor equation of the electromagnetic field, which is equivalent to the Maxwell equation and has a similar form as the Dirac equation. The spinor is the very conjugate momentum of the vector potential in the Lagrangian…

By using a totally antisymmetric spinor field we generalize Elko theory. We compare our proposed theory with traditional totally antisymmetric spinor field theory based on the Dirac equation. As an application of our formalism we comment…

We study two (massless free field) models, a photon/photino model with a vector gauge field and a Majorana spinor field, and a Wess-Zumino model. They each exhibit Lorentz symmetry violation but retain, in an appropriate way, the…

It is shown that c-number elko spinors obey the massless Dirac equation and are unitarily equivalent to Weyl bispinors. Therefore, they do not constitute a new spinor type with mass dimension one.

The interaction of neutrinos with gravitational fields in the weak field regime at one loop to the leading order has been studied by Menon and Thalappilil. They deduced some theoretical differences between the Majorana and Dirac neutrinos.…

We reduce the classification of all supersymmetric backgrounds of IIB supergravity to the evaluation of the Killing spinor equations and their integrability conditions, which contain the field equations, on five types of spinors. This…

An intrinsic mass generation mechanism for exotic ELKO dark matter fields is scrutinized, in the context of the very special relativity (VSR). Our results are reported on unraveling inequivalent spin structures that educe an additional term…

The spinor-helicity formalism in particle physics gives rise to natural subvarieties in the product of two Grassmannians. These include two-step flag varieties for subspaces of complementary dimension. Taking Hadamard products leads to…

A review about spinor fields is presented, constructing a outlook through the last century. Spinor was explored in many contexts more and more in the last decades. Besides this, more papers about this issue has been produced in the last…

A systematic study of the spinor representation by means of the fermionic physical space is accomplished and implemented. The spinor representation space is shown to be constrained by the Fierz-Pauli-Kofink identities among the spinor…

Two-spinor formalism for Einstein Lagrangian is developed. The gravitational field is regarded as a composite object derived from soldering forms. Our formalism is geometrically and globally well-defined and may be used in virtually any…

Based on the Dirac spinor representation of the SO(4) group, we discuss the relationship between three types of representation of spin in terms of Majorana fermions, namely the Kitaev representation, the SO(3) representation and the SO(4)…
