Lorentz transformations as Lie - Poisson symmetries
We write down the Poisson structure for a relativistic particle where the Lorentz group does not act canonically, but instead as a Poisson-Lie group. In so doing we obtain the classical limit of a particle moving on a noncommutative space possessing SL q (2, C) invariance. We show that if the standard mass shell constraint is chosen for the Hamiltonian function, then the particle interacts with...
متن کاملLorentz Transformations from Intrinsic Symmetries
We reveal the frame-exchange space-inversion (FESI) symmetry and the frame-exchange time-inversion (FETI) symmetry in the Lorentz transformation and propose a symmetry principle stating that the space-time transformation between two inertial frames is invariant under the FESI or the FETI transformation. In combination with the principle of relativity and the presumed nature of Euclidean space a...
متن کاملLorentz Transformations
In these notes we study Lorentz transformations and focus on the group of proper, orthochronous Lorentz transformations, donated by L+. (These Lorentz transformations have determinant one and preserve the direction of time.) The 2×2 matrices with determinant one, denoted SL(2, C), play a key role, as there is a map from SL(2,C) onto L+, that is 2-to-1 and a homomorphism. In this correspondence,...
متن کاملLorentz Boosts as Squeeze Transformations and Coherence Problems
The quark model and the parton model are known to be two different manifestations of the same covariant entity. However, the interaction amplitudes of partons are incoherent while they are coherent in the quark model. According to Feynman, this is due to the dilation of the interaction time among the quarks. We present a quantitative analysis of this time-dilation problem using Lorentz boosts a...
متن کاملLorentz Transformations and Statistical Mechanics
In [Gottlieb (1998)] and [Gottlieb (2000)] we launched a study of Lorentz transformations. We find that every Lorentz transformation can be expressed as an exponential e where F is a skew symmetric operator with respect to the Minkowski metric 〈 , 〉 of form −+++. We provided F with the notation of electromagnetism. Thus we can describe boosts as pure ~ E fields and rotations as pure ~ B fields....
