Abstract: | In this contribution nuclear representations of the Dirac ring, developed over many years, are shown to be a particular case of a theorem in algebraic geometry which at the same time associates them with a Hodge decomposition of a Kaehler manifold. This yields a shape that in some cases is independent of any appeal to a symmetry group. However, because the nuclear representations are in the infinitesimal ring of SO(4) and the internal space of each representation is in a Kaehler (even Calabi-Yau) manifold K; the group SO(10) = SO(4) × K can give additional information. This paper develops the very fruitful symbiosis between algebra and irreducible representations of SO(10) and covers some aspects of string theory. |
