Internal Symmetry from Division Algebras in Pure Spinor Geometry

نویسنده

چکیده

The É. Cartan’s equations defining “simple” spinors (renamed “pure” by C. Chevalley) are interpreted as equations of motions for fermion multiplets in momentum spaces which, in a constructive approach based bilinearly on those spinors, result compact and Lorentzian, naturally ending up with a ten-dimension space. The equations found are most of those traditionally adopted ad hoc by theoretical physics in order to represent the observed phenomenology of elementary particles. In particular, it is shown how the known internal symmetry groups, in particular those of the standard model, might derive from the 3 complex division algebras correlated with the associated Clifford algebras. They also explain the origin of charges, the tendency of fermions to appear in charged-neutral doublets, as well as the origin of families. The adoption of the Cartan’s conjecture on the non-elementary nature of Euclidean geometry (bilinearly generated by simple or pure spinors) might throw light on several problematic aspects of particle physics.

From the Geometry of Pure Spinors with Their Division Algebras to Fermion’s Physics

The Cartan’s equations defining simple spinors (renamed pure by C. Chevalley) are interpreted as equations of motion in momentum spaces, in a constructive approach in which at each step the dimensions of spinor space are doubled while those of momentum space increased by two. The construction is possible only in the frame of the geometry of simple or pure spinors, which imposes contraint equati...

The Possible Role of Pure Spinors in Some Sectors of Particle Physics

It is shown how, the spinor field equation in ten dimensional space-time: M = R1,9, after “dimensional reduction”, restricted to the zero mode, identifies with Cartan’s equation in momentum space P = R1,9, after interpreting the first four moments as Poincaré translations: Pμ → i ∂ ∂xμ . Adopting the geometry of “simple” spinors discovered by É. Cartan [1] (renamed “pure” by Chevalley [2]) a nu...

On Fermions in Compact Momentum Spaces Bilinearly Constructed with Pure Spinors

It is shown how the old Cartan’s conjecture on the fundamental role of the geometry of simple (or pure) spinors, as bilinearly underlying euclidean geometry, may be extended also to quantum mechanics of fermions (in first quantization), however in compact momentum spaces, bilinearly constructed with spinors, with signatures unambiguously resulting from the construction, and locally conceived as...

TfHE OCTONIONS

The octonions are the largest of the four normed division algebras. While somewhat neglected due to their nonassociativity, they stand at the crossroads of many interesting fields of mathematics. Here we describe them and their relation to Clifford algebras and spinors, Bott periodicity, projective and Lorentzian geometry, Jordan algebras, and the exceptional Lie groups. We also touch upon thei...

The Extended Fock Basis of Clifford Algebra

We investigate the properties of the Extended Fock Basis (EFB) of Clifford algebras [1] with which one can replace the traditional multivector expansion of Cl(g) with an expansion in terms of simple (also: pure) spinors. We show that a Clifford algebra with 2m generators is the direct sum of 2m spinor subspaces S characterized as being left eigenvectors of Γ; furthermore we prove that the well ...
