Z₃-graded colour Dirac equations for quarks, confinement and generalized Lorentz symmetries

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: We propose a modification of standard QCD description of the colour triplet of quarks describing quark fields endowed with colour degree of freedom by introducing a 12-component colour generalization of Dirac spinor, with built-in Z_3 grading playing an important algebraic role in quark confinement. In "colour Dirac equations" the SU(3) colour symmetry is entangled with the Z_3-graded generalization of Lorentz symmetry, containing three 6-parameter sectors related by Z_3 maps. The generalized Lorentz covariance requires simultaneous presence of 24 colour Dirac multiplets, which lead to the description of all internal symmetries of quarks: besides SU(3) imes SU(2) imes U(1), the flavour symmetries and three quark families.
