Employing a pseudo-orthonormal coordinate-free approach, we write down the Dirac equation in spacetimes with static general prolate metrics. As examples, we consider the electrically charged C-metric, the vacuum C-metric, the Reissner–Nordström and Schwarzschild spacetimes and the BBMB black hole and show that the solutions to the Dirac equations for particles in these spacetimes can be derived in terms of Heun’s general functions and their confluent and double confluent forms. By imposing boundary conditions to the radial solutions, the so-called resonant frequencies are obtained.

We study the Klein-Gordon and the Dirac equations in the background of the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger black hole in the Einstein frame. Using a SO(3,1)×U(1)-gauge covariant approach, as an alternative to the Newman-Penrose formalism for the Dirac equation, it turns out that these solutions can be expressed in terms of Heun confluent functions and we discuss some of their properties.

The Dirac electron is considered as a particle-like solution consistent with its own Kerr–Newman (KN) gravitational field. In our previous works we considered the regularized by López KN solution as a bag-like soliton model formed from the Higgs field in a supersymmetric vacuum state. This bag takes the shape of a thin superconducting disk coupled with circular string placed along its perimeter. Using the unique features of the Kerr–Schild coordinate system, which linearizes Dirac equation in KN space, we obtain the solution of the Dirac equations consistent with the KN gravitational and electromagnetic field, and show that the corresponding solution takes the form of a massless relativistic string. Obvious parallelism with Heisenberg and Schrödinger pictures of quantum theory explains remarkable features of the electron in its interaction with gravity and in the relativistic scattering processes.

Abstract In this article we study a family of four-dimensional, $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 supergravity theories that interpolates between all the single dilaton truncations of the SO(8) gauged $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 8 supergravity. In this infinitely many theories characterized by two real numbers — the interpolation parameter and the dyonic “angle” of the gauging — we construct non-extremal electrically or magnetically charged black hole solutions and their supersymmetric limits. All the supersymmetric black holes have non-singular horizons with spherical, hyperbolic or planar topology. Some of these supersymmetric and non-extremal black holes are new examples in the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 8 theory that do not belong to the STU model. We compute the asymptotic charges, thermodynamics and boundary conditions of these black holes and show that all of them, except one, introduce a triple trace deformation in the dual theory.

This paper explains a method of constructing algebras, starting with the properties of discrimination in elementary discrete systems. We show how to use points of view about these systems to construct what we call iterant algebras and how these algebras naturally give rise to the complex numbers, Clifford algebras and matrix algebras. The paper discusses the structure of the Schrödinger equation, the Dirac equation and the Majorana Dirac equations, finding solutions via the nilpotent method initiated by Peter Rowlands.

We present a general description of topological insulators from the point of view of Dirac equations. The Z2 index for the Dirac equation is always zero, and thus the Dirac equation is topologically trivial. After the quadratic term in momentum is introduced to correct the mass term m or the band gap of the Dirac equation, i.e., m → m − Bp2, the Z2 index is modified as 1 for mB > 0 and 0 for mB < 0. For a fixed B there exists a topological quantum phase transition from a topologically trivial system to a nontrivial system when the sign of mass m changes. A series of solutions near the boundary in the modified Dirac equation is obtained, which is characteristic of topological insulator. From the solutions of the bound states and the Z2 index we establish a relation between the Dirac equation and topological insulators.

Free vibration of single- and double-layered graphene sheets is investigated by employing nonlocal continuum theory and molecular dynamics simulations. Results show that the classical elastic model overestimated the resonant frequencies of the sheets by a percentage as high as 62%. The dependence of small-scale effects, sizes of sheets, boundary conditions, and number of layers on vibrational characteristic of single- and double-layered graphene sheets is studied. The resonant frequencies predicted by the nonlocal elastic plate theory are verified by the molecular dynamics simulations, and the nonlocal parameter is calibrated through the verification process. The simulation results reveal that the calibrated nonlocal parameter depends on boundary conditions and vibrational modes. The nonlocal plate model is found to be indispensable in vibration analysis of grapheme sheets with a length less than 8 nm on their sides.

We consider the Dirac equation given by with initial condition y1 (0) cos α + y2(0) sin α = 0, α ε [0; π ) and suppose the equation is in the limit-point case at infinity. Using to denote the derivative of the corresponding spectral function, a formula for is given when is known and positive for three distinct values of α. In general, if is known and positive for only two distinct values of α, then is shown to be one of two possibilities. However, in special cases of the Dirac equation, can be uniquely determined given for only two values of α.
