New symmetry properties of pointlike scalar and Dirac particles

New symmetry properties are found for pointlike scalar and Dirac particles (Higgs boson and all leptons) in Riemannian and Riemann-Cartan spacetimes in the presence of electromagnetic interactions. A Hermitian form of the Klein-Gordon equation for a pointlike scalar particle in an arbitrary n-dimensional Riemannian (or Riemann-Cartan) spacetime is obtained. New conformal symmetries of initial and Hermitian forms of this equation are ascertained. In the above spacetime, general Hamiltonians in the generalized Feshbach-Villars and Foldy-Wouthuysen representations are derived. The conformal-like transformation conserving these Hamiltonians is found. Corresponding conformal symmetries of a Dirac particle are determined. It is proven that all conformal symmetries remain unchanged by an inclusion of electromagnetic interactions.
