Mass of the fundamental fermion and degeneracy of the vacuum
- Physics
- 1965
Within the framework of the Heisenberg variant of the unified nonlinear spinor theory of elementary particles an attempt is made to calculate the mass of the fundamental fermion (“nucleon”). The…
A four-dimensional generalization of the quantum Hall effect.
- PhysicsScience
- 2001
A generalization of the quantum Hall effect, where particles move in four dimensional space under a SU(2) gauge field, is constructed, which has a macroscopic number of degenerate single particle states and forms an incompressible quantum liquid.
High Energy Quantumelectrodynamics II
- Physics
- 1965
Quantumelectrodynamics is at present the only example of a complete relativistic quantum theory which is known to be relevant to physics. The rules for calculation based upon Feynman diagrams give…
Looking for a Possible Breakdown of Local Lorentz Invariance for Electromagnetic Phenomena: Theory and First Experimental Results
- Physics
- 2001
We propose a new electromagnetic test of breakdown of local Lorentz invariance. It is based essentially on the detection of a non-zero force between a circular steady current and a charge, both at…
A note on spontaneously broken Lorentz invariance
- Physics
- 2008
We consider a relativistic effective field theory of vector boson whose vacuum exhibits spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance. We argue that a simple model of this type, considered recently by…
Dynamical foundations of the brane-induced gravity
- Physics
- 2013
We present a comprehensive formalism to derive precise expressions for the induced gravity of the braneworld, assuming the dynamics of the Dirac–Nambu–Goto type. The quantum fluctuations of the brane…

Divergence of perturbation theory in quantum electrodynamics
- Physics
- 1952
An argument is presented which leads tentatively to the conclusion that all the power-series expansions currently in use in quantum electrodynamics are divergent after the renormalization of mass and…
Dynamical Model of Elementary Particles Based on an Analogy with Superconductivity. II
- Physics
- 1961
It is suggested that the nucleon mass arises largely as a self-energy of some primary fermion field through the same mechanism as the appearance of energy gap in the theory of superconductivity. The…
