introduction
  • #
  • quadratic space \((V,Q)\)
  • Q : non-degenerate quadratic form, defines a symmetric bilinear form \(<x,y>\)
  • Clifford algebra : associative algebra generated by vectors in V with relations
    • \(v^2=Q(v)\)
    • \(vw+wv=2<w,v>\)
  • Clifford algebras may be thought of as quantizations (cf. quantization (physics), Quantum group) of the exterior algebra, in the same way that the Weyl algebra is a quantization of the symmetric algebra.

 

 

spinor
  • consider a representation of Clifford algebras
  • the elements in this space are called spinors
  • Spinors are classified according to Dirac, Weyl, Majorana and Weyl-Majorana spinors.
  • applications
    • spinor bundles
    • spin connections
    • the role of spinors in the description of the fundamental interactions between elementary particles

 

 

Pauli spinor
  • 8-dimensional real algebra
  • isomorphic to C(E_{3}) Clifford algebra of the Euclidean space E_{3}

 

 

Dirac matrices
  • 16 dimensional real algebra
  • isomorphic to C(E_{3,1}) Clifford algebra of the Minkowski space E_{3,1}
  • \(\gamma_{\mu}^2=\epsilon_{\mu}\), \(\gamma_{\mu}\gamma_{\nu}+\gamma_{\nu}\gamma_{\mu}=0\)\(\epsilon_{0}=1, \epsilon_{i}=-1\)
  • there exists unique four dimensional representation of a Clifford algebra
  • projective representation of the Lorentz group
  • universal covering of the Lorentz group H=SL(2,\mathbb{C}) also acts on it
