The unitary operators of space inversion and particle conjugation and the unitary factor of the antiunitary operator of time reversal can each be written in the form eiΩ, where Ω is the direct sum of two terms, Q = Ω1θ1 + Ω2θ2, with Ω1, Ω2 Hermitean bilinear forms in the creation and annihilation operators of the boson or fermion field under consideration, and θ1 θ2 singular operators which separate the appropriate half spaces needed for the formulation of the symmetry operations. Explicit expressions are given for the generators Ω in case of a non-Hermitean boson field of spin 0, and in case of a four-component fermion field of spin [Formula: see text].

Polar conductors/superconductors with Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction are potential material platforms for quantum transport and spintronic functionalities. One of their inherent properties is the nonreciprocal transport, where the rightward and leftward currents become inequivalent, reflecting spatial inversion/time-reversal symmetry breaking. Such a rectification effect originating from the polar symmetry has been recently observed at interfaces or bulk Rashba semiconductors, while its mechanism in a polar superconductor remains elusive. Here, we report the nonreciprocal transport in gate-induced two-dimensional superconductor SrTiO3, which is a Rashba superconductor candidate. In addition to the gigantic enhancement of nonreciprocal signals in the superconducting fluctuation region, we found kink and sharp peak structures around critical temperatures, which reflect the crossover behavior from the paraconductivity origin to the vortex origin, based on a microscopic theory. The present result proves that the nonreciprocal transport is a powerful tool for investigating the interfacial/polar superconductors without inversion symmetry, where rich exotic features are theoretically prognosticated.

We give an algebraic formulation based on Clifford algebras and algebraic spinors for quantum information. In this context, logic gates and concepts such as chirality, charge conjugation, parity and time reversal are introduced and explored in connection with states of qubits. Supersymmetry and M-superalgebra are also analyzed with our formalism. Specifically we use extensively the algebras [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as well as tensor products of Clifford algebras.

The conservation of parity in electromagnetic and mesonic interactions and the non-conservation of parity in the neutrino interactions are discussed on the basis of the principle of invariance under combined space inversion and charge conjugation.
