At the foundation of modern physics lie two symmetries: the Lorentz symmetry and the gauge symmetry, which play quite different roles in the establishment of the standard model. In this paper, it is shown that, different from what is usually expected, the two symmetries, although mathematically independent of each other, have important overlap in their physical effects. Specifically, we find that the interaction Lagrangian of QED can be derived, based on the Lorentz symmetry with some auxiliary assumption about vacuum fluctuations, without resorting to the gauge symmetry. In particular, the derivation is based on geometric relations among representation spaces of the SL(2,C) group. In this formulation of the interaction Lagrangian, the origin of the topological equivalence of the eight basic Feynman diagrams in QED can be seen quite clearly.
In this paper, a formulation, which is completely established on a quantum ground, is presented for basic contents of quantum electrodynamics (QED). This is done by moving away, from the fundamental level, the assumption that the spin space of bare p
We show how a mass mixing matrix can be generated dynamically, for two massless fermion flavours coupled to a Lorentz invariance violating (LIV) gauge field. The LIV features play the role of a regulator for the gap equations, and the non-analytic de
Based on models of confinement of quarks, we analyse a relativistic scalar particle subject to a scalar potential proportional to the inverse of the radial distance and under the effects of the violation of the Lorentz symmetry. We show that the effe
The so-called principle of relativity is able to fix a general coordinate transformation which differs from the standard Lorentzian form only by an unknown speed which cannot in principle be identified with the light speed. Based on a reanalysis of t
This work presents an experimental test of Lorentz invariance violation in the infrared (IR) regime by means of an invariant minimum speed in the spacetime and its effects on the time when an atomic clock given by a certain radioactive single-atom (e
