Complex Geometry and Dirac Equation

Complex geometry represents a fundamentalingredient in the formulation of the Dirac equation bythe Clifford algebra. The choice of appropriate complexgeometries is strictly related to the geometricinterpretation of the complex imaginary unit . We discuss two possibilities which appearin the multivector algebra approach: the₁₂₃ and ₂₁ complexgeometries. Our formalism provides a set of rules which allows an immediate translation between thecomplex standard Dirac theory and its version withingeometric algebra. The problem concerning a doublegeometric interpretation for the complex imaginary unit is also discussed.
