1 The Drac Monopole and Induced Representatons * In ths note a mathematcally transparent treatment of the Drac monopole s gven from the pont of vew of nduced representatons Among other thngs the queston of bound states for the spnnng electron n the feld of a magnetc monopole s consdered In 948, as he was turnng from theoretcal physcs to mathematcs, Harsh-Chandra wrote one last paper [5] on a physcal topc, nvestgatng a queston nspred by Drac, and perhaps even proposed by hm Does an electron movng accordng to Drac s equaton n the feld of a magnetc monopole have a bound state? The technque nvolved, namely, separaton of varables, s of course elementary, and would reappear but at a much deeper level repeatedly n Harsh-Chandra s later work on harmonc analyss on semsmple groups However, ths tme, hs mnd on other matters, he handled t perfunctorly, and went astray wth the calculatons, concludng ncorrectly that there could be no bound states The matter has snce been dealt wth correctly [4], [6], [8] However, the dervaton of the radal equatons n [6] and [8] s not so effcent as t mght be In vew of the possble hstorcal nterest to students of Harsh-Chandra s later work, a bref, mathematcally transparent treatment does not seem out of place It s the purpose of ths note, whch does not touch on any questons of serous current nterest, to provde t In [2] Drac consders the wave functon ψ of a charged partcle wthout spn, observng that one can replace ψ by e β ψ wthout changng the dstrbuton ψ 2, whch s what counts The functon β depends on the coordnates g,x,x 2,x The substtuton replaces and but, snce do not appear alone but n the combnatons t by x j by t and t + A, * Appeared n Pac Jour Math, vol t + β t x j + β x j, x j x j + A j,

2 The Drac monoploe 2 ths effect can be countered by a change n the electromagnetc potentals A,A,A 2,A The upshot s that ψ can be regarded as a secton of a lne bundle wth metrc and wth a connecton defned by the electromagnetc potentals The pertnent lne bundle s on M, four-dmensonal space wth the lne x x 2 x removed Ths space s to be dentfed wth R R + H\G, where G s SU2 and H s the group of dagonal matrces As usual G s mapped to SO and thus acts on -space x,x 2,x y,y 2,y x,x 2,x Ag n such a way that the Paul matrces σ,σ 2,σ multpled by /2 correspond to nfntesmal rotatons through the x,x 2, and x -axes Thus y y y 2 y + y 2 y f x x x 2 x + x 2 x g Then r, g rag dentfes R + H\G wth -space mnus the orgn The lne bundle s defned by a one-dmensonal representaton ρ : e θ e θ e nθ of H, sectons beng complex functons f on R R + G satsfyng ft, r, hg ρhft, r, g The connecton, lke the bundle, s a product trval on the frst two factors Let H be the orthogonal complement of H n G and regard functons on H\G as H-nvarant functons on G We prescrbe that for X H the tangent vector X g at Hg defned by X g f d dt fexp tx g t acts on sectons by the same formula, and verfy that ths yelds a well-defned connecton The curvature of ths connecton can be computed on H\G and, snce [H, H ] H, s a twoform that takes the value 2 ρ[x,x 2 ] at X g X2 g Takng X σ /2,X 2 σ 2 /2 and recallng that when dvded by /2 the curvature on M yelds a two-form that gves the electrc and magnetc felds, we see that the assocated electrc feld s and the magnetc feld purely radal and equal to n 2r x,x 2,x

3 The Drac monoploe Observe that all constructons are nvarant under the acton of G on H\G, whch of course yelds the usual acton of G on M Consequently the magnetc feld s sphercally symmetrc and need only be evaluated at,, r Notce also that at a pont r, g where g, X r x 2,X2 r x However, the Drac equaton, wth whch [5] was concerned, s for electrons wth spn To ntroduce t we tensor the bundle wth the four-dmensonal trval bundle on M Ifσ s the representaton of G to tself, then the equatons are nvarant under the transformaton F F wth σgf t, xag F t, x So we replace F by f wth 2 ft, r, g σgf t, r,, Ag to obtan equatons nvarant under rght translatons In terms of f the Drac operator may be wrtten γ γ + γ + t r r X2 γ2 r X + r γ m The notaton s that of [] Ths need only be verfed at t, r, Usng equatons we see that the Drac operator may be wrtten as γ σg γ + t r X2 γ2 r X + γ σg m, r g beng set equal to after the dfferentaton Thus t s γ γ + γ + t r r X γ2 r X γ r σx2 + γ2 r σx m Snce and the equaton follows γ,γ j σ j σ j σx j 2 σ j σ j, j, 2,
