  • 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

  • Lattice Quantum Field Theory Of The Dirac And Gauge Fields: Selected Topics

    Quantum Chromodynamics is the theory of strong interactions: a quantum field theory of colored gluons (Yang-Mills gauge fields) coupled to quarks (Dirac fermion fields). Lattice gauge theory is defined by discretizing spacetime into a four-dimensional lattice — and entails defining gauge fields and Dirac fermions on a lattice. The applications of lattice gauge theory are vast, from the study of ... Read more
