Generally covariant geometric momentum, gauge potential and a Dirac fermion on a two-dimensional sphere
Abstract For a particle that is constrained on an ($$N-1$$ N-1 )-dimensional ($$N\ge 2$$ N≥2 ) curved surface $$\Sigma ^{N-1}$$ ΣN-1 , the Cartesian components of its momentum in N-dimensional flat space are believed to offer a proper form of momentum for the particle on the surface, which is called...
