CPT Groups of Spinor Fields in de Sitter and Anti-de Sitter Spaces

Abstract: CP T groups for spinor fields in de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spaces are defined in the framework of automorphism groups of Clifford algebras. It is shown that de Sitter spaces with mutually opposite signatures correspond to Clifford algebras with different algebraic structure that induces an essential difference of CP T groups associated with these spaces. CP T groups for charged particles are considered with respect to phase factors on the various spinor spaces related with real subalgebras of the simple Cli… Show more

“…Note that ǫ and ǫ ′′ are the same functions of n as κ and κ ′′ are of m. These signs were defined so that ǫ and ǫ ′′ agree with Connes' KO-dimension tables [5,17]. Related tables can be found in the literature [18][19][20]. The values of the KO dimension n and of the new dimension m in terms of the conventions are given in Table 2.…”

“…In our case, pure states of the form (3) correspond to charged states. At this point, the sign of charge is changed under action of the pseudoautomorphism A → A of the complex spinor structure (for more details see [24,25,26]). Following to analogy with the Lagrangian formalism, where neutral particles are described by real fields, we introduce vector states of the form…”

“…States of the form (4) correspond to neutral states. Since the real spinor structure is appeared in the result of reduction C 2(k+r) → Cℓ p,q , then (as a consequence) a charge conjugation C (pseudoautomorphism A → A) for the algebras Cℓ p,q over the real number field F = R and quaternionic division ring K ≃ H (the types p − q ≡ 4, 6 (mod 8)) is reduced to particle-antiparticle interchange C ′ (see [24,25,26]). As is known, there exist two classes of neutral particles: 1) particles which have antiparticles, such as neutrons, neutrino 4 and so on; 2) particles which coincide with their antiparticles (for example, photons, π 0 -mesons and so on), that is, so-called truly neutral particles.…”

“…The relationship between CP T groups and extraspecial groups and universal coverings of orthogonal groups was established in [37,38]. CP T groups of spinor fields in the de Sitter spaces of different signatures were studied in the works [39,40,41]. CP T groups for higher spin fields have been defined in [13] on the spinspaces associated with representations of the spinor group Spin + (1, 3).…”
