Spinor bundle — In mathematics and theoretical physics, spinors are certain geometric entities bound up with physical theories of spin , and the mathematics of Clifford algebras, that in a sense are kinds of twisted tensors. From a geometric point of view,… … Wikipedia
Spinor — In mathematics and physics, in particular in the theory of the orthogonal groups (such as the rotation or the Lorentz groups), spinors are elements of a complex vector space introduced to expand the notion of spatial vector. Unlike tensors, the… … Wikipedia
Clifford bundle — In mathematics, a Clifford bundle is an algebra bundle whose fibers have the structure of a Clifford algebra and whose local trivializations respect the algebra structure. There is a natural Clifford bundle associated to any (pseudo) Riemannian… … Wikipedia
Associated bundle — In mathematics, the theory of fiber bundles with a structure group G (a topological group) allows an operation of creating an associated bundle, in which the typical fiber of a bundle changes from F 1 to F 2, which are both topological spaces… … Wikipedia
Generalized complex structure — In the field of mathematics known as differential geometry, a generalized complex structure is a property of a differential manifold that includes as special cases a complex structure and a symplectic structure. Generalized complex structures… … Wikipedia
Spin structure — In differential geometry, a spin structure on an orientable Riemannian manifold allows one to define associated spinor bundles, giving rise to the notion of a spinor in differential geometry. Spin structures have wide applications to mathematical … Wikipedia
Clifford algebra — In mathematics, Clifford algebras are a type of associative algebra. They can be thought of as one of the possible generalizations of the complex numbers and quaternions.[1][2] The theory of Clifford algebras is intimately connected with the… … Wikipedia
Dirac operator — In mathematics and quantum mechanics, a Dirac operator is a differential operator that is a formal square root, or half iterate, of a second order operator such as a Laplacian. The original case which concerned Paul Dirac was to factorise… … Wikipedia
Einstein–Cartan theory — in theoretical physics extends general relativity to correctly handle spin angular momentum. As the master theory of classical physics general relativity has one known flaw: it cannot describe spin orbit coupling , i.e., exchange of intrinsic… … Wikipedia
Clifford analysis — Clifford analysis, using Clifford algebras named after William Kingdon Clifford, is the study of Dirac operators, and Dirac type operators in analysis and geometry, together with their applications. Examples of Dirac type operators include, but… … Wikipedia
Metaplectic structure — In differential geometry, a metaplectic structure is the symplectic analog of spin structure on orientable Riemannian manifolds. A metaplectic structure on a symplectic manifold allows one to define the symplectic spinor bundle, which is the… … Wikipedia
