3+1D Massless Weyl Spinors from Bosonic Scalar-Tensor Duality by Andrea Amoretti, Alessandro Braggio, Giacomo Caruso, Nicola Maggiore, Nicodemo Magnoli

“…This duality can be interpreted as the dimensional reduction, via a planar boundary, of the 4+1D topological BF theory. In this model, adopting the Sommerfield tomographic representation of quantized bosonic fields, we explicitly build a fermionic operator and its associated Klein factor such that it satisfies the correct anticommutation relations. …”
