Non-Hermitian Lagrangian for Quasirelativistic Fermions
We present a Lorentz-symmetry violating Lagrangian for free fermions, which is local but not Hermitian, whereas the corresponding Hamiltonian is Hermitian but not local. A specific feature of the model is that the dispersion relation is relativistic in both the IR and the UV but not in an intermedia...

description | We present a Lorentz-symmetry violating Lagrangian for free fermions, which is local but not Hermitian,
whereas the corresponding
Hamiltonian is Hermitian but not local. A specific feature of the model is that the dispersion relation is relativistic
in both the IR and the UV but not in an intermediate regime, set by a given mass scale. The consistency of the model is shown by the study of
properties expected in analogy with the Dirac Lagrangian. |
