  • Dual-Spin Dirac Equation and Maxwell's Equations

    by Xiafu Zhang ...
    When studying the Dirac equation and Maxwell's equations, replacing the current second-order Pauli spin matrices with fourth-order spin matrices reveals that the Dirac equation contains a pair of spins, and the Maxwell’s equations contain spins and Runge-Lenz vector. This book refers to the pair of spins as "dual-spin". The dual-spin matrices are the main components of these equations. Based on ... Read more

  • Clifford Analysis and Related Topics

    In Honor of Paul A. M. Dirac, CART 2014, Tallahassee, Florida, December 15–17

    Edited by Paula Cerejeiras, Craig A. Nolder, John Ryan, Carmen Judith Vanegas Espinoza ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    This book, intended to commemorate the work of Paul Dirac, highlights new developments in the main directions of Clifford analysis. Just as complex analysis is based on the algebra of the complex numbers, Clifford analysis is based on the geometric Clifford algebras. Many methods and theorems from complex analysis generalize to higher dimensions in various ways. However, many new features emerge ... Read more

  • Schwinger's Quantum Action Principle

    From Dirac’s Formulation Through Feynman’s Path Integrals, the Schwinger-Keldysh Method, Quantum Field Theory, to Source Theory

    by Kimball A. Milton ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Starting from the earlier notions of stationary action principles, these tutorial notes shows how Schwinger’s Quantum Action Principle descended from Dirac’s formulation, which independently led Feynman to his path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics. Part I brings out in more detail the connection between the two formulations, and applications are discussed. Then, the Keldysh-Schwinger time ... Read more
