It is a common belief among theoretical physicists that the charge conjugation of the Dirac equation has an analogy in higher dimensional space-times so that in an 8-dimensional space-time there would also be Maiorana spinors as eigenspinors of a charge conjugation, which would swap the sign of the electric charge of the Dirac equation. This article shows that this mistaken belief is based on inadequate distinction between two kinds of charge conjugation: the electric conjugation swapping the sign...
In the Fourier theory of functions of one variable, it is common to extend a function and its Fourier transform holomorphically to domains in the complex plane C, and to use the power of complex function theory. This depends on first extending the exponential function eixξ of the real variables x and ξ to a function eizζ which depends holomorphically on both the complex variables z and ζ .Our thesis is this. The natural analog in higher dimensions is to extend a function of m real variables monogenically...
In this paper we show that well-known relationships connecting the Clifford algebra on negative euclidean space, Vahlen matrices, and Möbius transformations extend to connections with the Möbius loop or gyrogroup on the open unit ball in -dimensional euclidean space . One notable achievement is a compact, convenient formula for the Möbius loop operation , where the operations on the right are those arising from the Clifford algebra (a formula comparable to for the Möbius loop multiplication...
