A Majorana fermion is the single fermionic particle that is its own antiparticle. Its dynamics is determined by the Majorana equation where the spinor field $(\psi)$ is by definition equal to its charge-conjugate field $(\psi_c)$. Here, we…
The transition from classical physics to quantum mechanics has been mysterious. Here, we derive the space-independent von Neumann equation for electron spin mathematically from the classical Bloch or Majorana--Bloch equation, which is also…
Letting the mass depend on the spin-field coupling as $M^2=m^2-(eg/2c^2)F_{\alpha\beta}S^{\alpha\beta}$, we propose a new set of relativistic planar equations of motion for spinning anyons. Our model can accommodate any gyromagnetic ratio…
A completely Lorentz-invariant Bohmian model has been proposed recently for the case of a system of non-interacting spinless particles, obeying Klein-Gordon equations. It is based on a multi-temporal formalism and on the idea of treating…
This review is based on lectures given by M. J. Duff summarising the far reaching contributions of Ettore Majorana to fundamental physics, with special focus on Majorana fermions in all their guises. The theoretical discovery of the…
It is well recognized that in auxiliary equation methods, the exact solutions of different types of auxiliary equations may produce new types of exact travelling wave solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations in hand. In this…
Ettore Majorana (1906-1938) disappeared while traveling by ship from Palermo to Naples in 1938. His fate has never been fully resolved and several articles have been written that explore the mystery itself. His demise intrigues us still…
Galilei invariant equations for massive fields with various spins are found and classified. They have been obtained directly, i.e., by using requirement of Galilei invariance and the facts on representations of the Galilei group deduced in…
Taking advantage of the two-parameter central extension of the planar Galilei group, we construct a non relativistic particle model in the plane. Owing to the extra structure, the coordinates do not commute. Our model can be viewed as the…
A new relativistic description of quantum electrodynamics is presented. Guideline of the theory is the Klein-Gordon equation, which is reformulated to consider spin effects. This is achieved by a representation of relativistic vectors with…
The structure of the electromagnetic vertex function of spin-3/2 particles is analyzed in a general way, for the diagonal and off-diagonal couplings, of charged as well as neutral particles including the case of self-conjugate (Majorana)…
In this work consideration is given to massless and massive gauge-invariant spin 0 and spin 1 fields (particles) within the scope of a theory of the generalized relativistic wave equations with an extended set of the Lorentz group…
Theoretically, in (1+1) dimensions, one can have Klein-Fock-Gordon-Majorana (KFGM) particles. More precisely, these are one-dimensional (1D) Klein-Fock-Gordon (KFG) and Majorana particles at the same time. In principle, the wave equations…
In this paper, we investigate the lifespan estimates of classical solutions of the initial value problems for semilinear wave equations of derivative type with characteristic weights in one space dimension. Such equations provide us basic…
The group theoretical approach to the relativistic wave equations on the real reducible spaces for spin~0, 1/2 and~1 massless particles is considered. The invariant wave equations which determine the appropriate irreducible representations…
The equations of motion for $N$ non-relativistic particles attracting according to Newton's law are shown to correspond to the equations for null geodesics in a $(3N+2)$-dimensional Lorentzian, Ricci-flat, spacetime with a covariantly…
Enlarged planar Galilean symmetry, built of both space-time and field variables and also incorporating the ``exotic'' central extension is introduced. It is used to describe non-relativistic anyons coupled to an electromagnetic field. Our…
A variational principle is suggested within Riemannnian geometry, in which an auxiliary metric and the Levi Civita connection are varied independently. The auxiliary metric plays the role of a Lagrange multiplier and introduces non-minimal…
In the Majorana representation of a spin 1/2 we find an identity which relates spin-spin correlators to one-particle fermionic correlators. This should be contrasted with the straightforward approach in which two-particle (four-fermion)…
The `classical' model for a massive spinning particle, which was recently proposed, is derived from the isotropic rotator model. Through this derivation, we note that the spin can be understood as the relativistic extension of the isotropic…
