ƒ¿ ¸ V*

Construction     ƒÇ(ƒ¿) : ƒ©V ¨ ƒ©V

Vector field     X

Construction operator    ƒÇ(X) : ƒ¶œ(M) ¨ƒ¶œ-1 (M)

5

Complex vector space     V R C

Complex subspace of V R C     P

V R C  = P

Inner product     Q

w ¸ P

Q ( w, w ) = 0

P is Polarization of V R C .

6

Real vector space    V

Linear automorphism of V     J

J2 = -1

J     Complex structure of V

7

Pfs exterior algebra    ƒ©P

Spinor space    S =ƒ©P

Spinor module ( Complex Clifford module )     S = S+ S-

Complex Clifford module     C ( V ) R C

C ( V ) R C = End ( S ) = S+ S-

8

From upper 2, 3 and 5, elements of P, called creation operator, create a particle and elements of , called annihilation operator, annihilate a particle.

 

[Note]

Creation operator and annihilation operator are corresponded with the next past work.
