    Geometric models of (d+1)-dimensional relativistic rotating oscillators

    Geometric models of quantum relativistic rotating oscillators in arbitrary dimensions are defined on backgrounds with deformed anti-de Sitter metrics. It is shown that these models are analytically solvable, deriving the formulas of the energy levels and corresponding normalized energy eigenfunctions. An important property is that all these models have the same nonrelativistic limit, namely the usual harmonic oscillator.Comment: 7 pages, Late

    The Schr\" odinger picture of the Dirac quantum mechanics on spatially flat Robertson-Walker backgrounds

    Full text link
    The Schr\" odinger picture of the Dirac quantum mechanics is defined in charts with spatially flat Robertson-Walker metrics and Cartesian coordinates. The main observables of this picture are identified, including the interacting part of the Hamiltonian operator produced by the minimal coupling with the gravitational field. It is shown that in this approach new Dirac quantum modes on de Sitter spacetimes may be found analytically solving the Dirac equation.Comment: 6 pages 0 figure

    SU(n)⊗U(1)cSU(n)\otimes U(1)_c gauge models with spontaneous symmetry breaking

    Full text link
    A possible generalization of the technique of the standard model to SU(n)⊗U(1)SU(n)\otimes U(1) gauge models is proposed. A special Higgs mechanism and a new kind of Yukawa couplings in unitary gauge are introduced. These allow us to obtain a general method of deriving boson mass spectrum and coupling coefficients which will be used to find an exact solution of the Pisano-Pleitez three-generation SU(3)⊗U(1)SU(3)\otimes U(1) model. A new anomaly-free one-generation model is briefly discussed.Comment: 41 pages, REVTe

    The Dirac particle on de Sitter background

    Get PDF
    We show that the Dirac equation on de Sitter background can be analytically solved in a special static frame where the energy eigenspinors can be expressed in terms of usual angular spinors known from special relativity, and a pair of radial wave functions.Comment: 9 pages, Late

    Discrete quantum modes of the Dirac field in AdSd+1AdS_{d+1} backgrounds

    Full text link
    It is shown that the free Dirac equation in spherically symmetric static backgrounds of any dimensions can be put in a simple form using a special version of Cartesian gauge in Cartesian coordinates. This is manifestly covariant under the transformations of the isometry group so that the generalized spherical coordinates can be separated in terms of angular spinors like in the flat case, obtaining a pair of radial equations. In this approach the equation of the free field Dirac in AdSd+1AdS_{d+1} backgrounds is analytically solved obtaining the formula of the energy levels and the corresponding normalized eigenspinors.Comment: 18 pages, Latex.
