  1. 1. Spin Representations, Clifford Algebras and Spinors

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Matematiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Wogel; [2023]
    Keywords : Algebras; Clifford algebras; Spinors; Representations; Lie algebras; Lie groups; Algebror; Cliffordalgebror; Spinorer; Representationer; Liealgebror; Liegrupper;

    Abstract : We begin by giving some theoretical background to the underlying concepts of spin representations and spinors. This is done from the perspective of Lie groups and Lie algebras. In particular, we discuss the functionality of Clifford algebras in the determination of the double-covering spin groups. READ MORE

  2. 2. On the (1/2,1/2) Representation of the Lorentz Group and the Discrete CPT Symmetries

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Nikolaj Skog Pirinen; [2021]
    Keywords : The Lorentz Group; Group Theory; Quantum Field Theory; CPT; Symmetry; Spinors; Representation Theory; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis derives the explicit form of the elements of the (1/2,1/2) representation of the Lorentz group, by actually performing a direct product of the chiral (1/2,0)- and (0,1/2)-representations. The Lorentz transformations of fourvectors are thereafter recovered from this direct-product representation, allowing the derivation of a transformation matrix between the fourvector- and direct product basis.
