Physical Vacuum Properties and Internal Space Dimension

The paper addresses matrix spaces, whose properties and dynamics are determined by Dirac matrices in Riemannian spaces of different dimension and signature. Among all Dirac matrix systems there are such ones, which nontrivial scalar, vector or other tensors cannot be made up from. These Dirac matrix systems are associated with the vacuum state of the matrix space. The simplest vacuum system realization can be ensured using the orthonormal basis in the internal matrix space. This vacuum system realization is not however unique. The case of 7-dimensional Riemannian space of signature 7(-) is considered in detail. In this case two basically different vacuum system realizations are possible: (1) with using the orthonormal basis; (2) with using the oblique-angled basis, whose base vectors coincide with the simple roots of algebra E_{8}. Considerations are presented, from which it follows that the least-dimension space bearing on physics is the Riemannian 11-dimensional space of signature 1(-)& 10(+). The considerations consist in the condition of maximum vacuum energy density and vacuum fluctuation energy density.Comment: 19 pages, 1figure. Submitted to General Relativity and Gravitatio

On correspondence between tensors and bispinors

It is known that in the four-dimensional Riemannian space the complex bispinor generates a number of tensors: scalar, pseudo-scalar, vector, pseudo-vector, antisymmetric tensor. This paper solves the inverse problem: the above tensors are arbitrarily given, it is necessary to find a bispinor (bispinors) reproducing the tensors. The algorithm for this mapping constitutes construction of Hermitean matrix $M$ from the tensors and finding its eigenvalue spectrum. A solution to the inverse problem exists only when $M$ is nonnegatively definite. Under this condition a matrix $Z$ satisfying equation $M=ZZ^{+}$ can be found. One and the same system of tensor values can be used to construct the matrix $Z$ accurate to an arbitrary factor on the left-hand side, viz. unitary matrix $U$ in polar expansion $Z=HU$. The matrix $Z$ is shown to be expandable to a set of bispinors, for which the unitary matrix $U$ is responsible for the internal (gauge) degrees of freedom. Thus, a group of gauge transformations depends only on the Riemannian space dimension, signature, and the number field used. The constructed algorithm for mapping tensors to bispinors admits extension to Riemannian spaces of a higher dimension.Comment: 14 pages;LaTeX2e;to appear in the 9th Marcel Grossmann Meeting (MG9) Proceedings,Rome, July, 200
