چکیده

We rewrite the 1+1 Dirac equation in light cone coordinates in two significant forms, and solve them exactly using the classical calculus of finite differences. The complex form yields “Feynman’s Checkerboard”—a weighted sum over lattice paths. The rational, real form can also be interpreted in terms of bit-strings. Submitted to Physics Letters A. PACS: 03.65.Pm, 02.70.Bf

Supersymmetry and Euler Multiplets

Some massless supermultiplets appear as the trivial solution of Kostant’s equation, a Dirac-like equation over special cosets. We study two examples; one over the coset SU(3)/SU(2) × U(1) contains the N = 2 hypermultiplet in (3 + 1) dimensions with U(1) as helicity; the other over the coset F4/SO(9) describes the N = 1 supermultiplet in eleven dimensions, where SO(9) is the light-cone little gr...

On the Dirac Equation in a Gravitation Field and the Secondary Quantization

The Dirac equation for massive free electrically neutral spin 1/2 particles in a gravitation field is considered. The secondary quantization procedure is applied to it and the Hilbert space of multiparticle quantum states is constructed. 1. The Dirac equation and its current. Let M be a space-time manifold. It is a four-dimensional orientable manifold equipped with a pseudo-EuclideanMinkowski-t...

I am not interested in proofs. I am only interested on how Nature works P.A.M. Dirac One hundred years after its creator's birth, the Dirac equation stands as the cornerstone of XXth Century physics. But it is much more, as it carries the seeds of supersymmetry. Dirac also invented the light-cone, or " front form " dynamics, which plays a crucial role in string theory and in elucidating the fin...

0 a Linear - Confined Particle and the Dirac Equation

The model of a classical particle with the weak linear AAD potential is subjected to path integral quantization. The light cone constraints and peculiar properties of its internal variables permit to use in calculations commutative dynamics and apply path integrals for a matrix form of the transition amplitude. Quantization leads to description of a Dirac particle. Motivated by the Wheeler-Feyn...
