Abstract:We consider the problem of obtaining conformally invariant differential operators in Minkowski space. We show that the conformal electrodynamics equations and the gauge transformations for them can be obtained in the frame of the method of dimensional reduction developed in the first part of the paper. We describe a method for obtaining a large set of conformally invariant differential operators in Minkowski space.
Keywords:Differential geometry  Group action and symmetry  Noncompact dimensional reduction  Conformal invariance
