Abstract: | The real and quaternionic charge conjugation operators invariant under the infinite-dimensional Clifford algebra, or compatible with the Fermi algebra, are determined. There results a maze of inequivalent irreducible charged representations, all of which are non-Fock. The representation vectors and their charges admit two interpretations besides those of spinors or states of quantum fields: as wavelets on the circle, with charge conjugations acting via ordinary complex conjugation; and as infinite-dimensional numbers, with charge conjugations acting by automorphisms. |
