We examine some of the subtleties inherent in formulating a theory of spinors on a manifold with a smooth degenerate metric. We concentrate on the case where the metric is singular on a hypersurface that partitions the manifold into…

In this paper we formulate Maxwell and Dirac theories as an already unified theory (in the sense of Misner and Wheeler). We introduce Dirac spinors as "Dirac square root" of the Faraday bivector, and use this in order to find a spinorial…

We prove the existence of infinitely many non square-integrable stationary solutions for a family of massless Dirac equations in 2D. They appear as effective equations in two dimensional honeycomb structures. We give a direct existence…

The triality properties of Dirac spinors are studied, including a construction of the algebra of (complexified) biquaternion. It is proved that there exists a vector-representation of Dirac spinors. The massive Dirac equation in the…

We define and study the probability current and the Hamiltonian operator for a fully general set of Dirac matrices in a flat spacetime with affine coordinates, by using the Bargmann-Pauli hermitizing matrix. We find that with some weak…

Existence of a protected surface state described by a massless Dirac equation is a defining property of the topological insulator. Though this statement can be explicitly verified on an idealized flat surface, it remains to be addressed to…

We postulate a new nonlinear generalization of the Dirac equation for an electron. Basic properties of the new equation are considered.

We consider the three-dimensional Dirac equation in spherical coordinates with coupling to static electromagnetic potential. The space components of the potential have angular (non-central) dependence such that the Dirac equation is…

We study configurations consisting of a gravitating spinor field $\psi$ with a nonlinearity of the type $\lambda\left(\bar\psi\psi\right)^2$. To ensure spherical symmetry of the configurations, we use two spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fields forming a…

A non-canonical correspondence of the complete sets of solutions to the Dirac and Klein-Gordon free equations in Minkowski space-time is established. This allows for a novel viewpoint on the relationship of relativistic equations for…

Some new expressions are found, concerning the one-loop effective action of four dimensional massive and massless Dirac fermions in the presence of general uniform electric and magnetic fields, with $\vec E\cdot \vec H\neq 0$ and $\vec E…

Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and several methods have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In this work, we propose a new scheme for resonance by solving the Dirac equation in…

We consider the Dirac field in polar formulation, showing that when torsion is taken in effective approximation the theory has the thermodynamic properties of a van der Waals gas, that when the limit of zero chiral angle is taken the theory…

Using Weitzenb\"ock techniques on any compact Riemannian spin manifold we derive a general inequality depending on a real parameter and joining the spectrum of the Dirac operator with terms depending on the Ricci tensor and its first…

We present a second-quantized field theory of massive spin one-half particles or antiparticles in the presence of a weak gravitational field treated as a spin two external field in a flat Minkowski background. We solve the difficulties…

Using the fact that a spin connection is defined to an accuracy of a vector it is shown that the spin connection should be modified in such a manner that Dirac equation in a curve space would be compatible with Dirac equation in a flat…

We solve the Dirac equation in one space dimension for the case of a linear, Lorentz-scalar potential. This extends earlier work of Bhalerao and Ram [Am. J. Phys. 69 (7), 817-818 (2001)] by eliminating unnecessary constraints. The spectrum…

In this paper, we provide a procedure to solve the eigen solutions of Dirac equation with complicated potential approximately. At first, we solve the eigen solutions of a linear Dirac equation with complete eigen system, which approximately…

The structure of 29-dimensional extended real Clifford-Dirac algebra, which has been introduced in our paper Phys. Lett. A, 2011, 375, 2479, is considered in brief. Using this algebra, the property of Fermi-Bose duality of the Dirac…

We investigate whether the spinor field can be differential-algebraically eliminated from the Maxwell--Dirac equations in a particular gauge. To this end, we construct a generic truncated power-series solution and linearize the prolonged…
