abstract

Dirac matrices, also known as gamma matrices, are defined only up to a similarity transformation. Usually, some explicit representation of these matrices is assumed in order to deal with them. In this article, we show how it is possible to proceed without any such assumption. Various important identities involving Dirac matrices and spinors have been derived without assuming any representation at any stage.

Different types of torsion and their effect on the dynamics of fields

gr-qc · 2019-07-04 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In VEP formalism the off-shell spin connection admits a one-parameter family of conformal transformations interpolating between Nieh-Yan and conformally invariant torsion; dynamically generated torsion lacks well-defined conformal properties and affects fermions and conformal scalars.
