Spin Gauge Theory of Gravity in Clifford Space: A Realization of Kaluza-Klein Theory in 4-Dimensional Spacetime

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized Dirac field is assumed to be a polyvector-valued object (a Clifford number) which can be written as a superposition of four independent spinors, each spanning a different left ideal of Clifford algebra.

On the noncommutative and nonassociative geometry of octonionic space time, modified dispersion relations and grand unification

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the flux of the SU(2) Yang-Mills field strength Fμν through the internal isospin space yields corrections O(1∕MPlanck2) to the energy-momentum dispersion relations without violating Lorentz invariance as it occurs with Hopf algebraic deformations of the Poincare algebra.

Kaluza-Klein theory without extra dimensions: Curved Clifford space

TL;DR: In this article, a theory in which 16-dimensional curved Clifford space (C-space) provides a realization of Kaluza-Klein theory is investigated, and it is shown that the covariant Dirac equation in C-space contains Yang-Mills fields of the U ( 1 ) × SU ( 2 ) × U ( 3 ) group as parts of the generalized spin connection.

Spin gauge theory of gravity in clifford space: a realization of kaluza–klein theory in four-dimensional space–time

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized Dirac field is assumed to be a polyvector-valued object (a Clifford number) which can be written as a superposition of four independent spinors, each spanning a different left ideal of Clifford algebra.

On modified Weyl–Heisenberg algebras, noncommutativity, matrix-valued Planck constant and QM in Clifford spaces

Carlos Castro
- 24 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, Yang's noncommutative spacetime algebra and the area-coordinates algebra associated with Clifford spaces are constructed and a novel Weyl-Heisenberg algebra in Clifford spaces is constructed that is based on a matrix-valued extension of Planck's constant.

CP Violation in the Renormalizable Theory of Weak Interaction

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that no CP-violating interactions exist in the quartet scheme without introducing any other new fields, and that the strong interaction must be chiral SU ( 4) X SU( 4) invariant as precisely as the conservation of the third component of the iso-spin.

The Topology of Fibre Bundles.

TL;DR: In this paper, a succint introduction to fiber bundles is provided, which includes such topics as differentiable manifolds and covering spaces, and a brief survey of advanced topics, such as homotopy theory and cohomology theory, before using them to study further properties of fibre bundles.
