Spacelike representations of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group in a Lorentz basis

B. Radhakrishnan, N. Mukunda

Open publisher page 9 citations

Abstract

The problem of introducing a Lorentz basis in a spacelike representation of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group in the spinless case, is solved by the methods of integral geometry. A new description of the representation associated with isotropic lines, which is peculiar to the spacelike case, is also given.
