Options for a finite group model of quantum mechanics

Abstract: There are four finite groups that could plausibly play the role of the spin group in a finite or discrete model of quantum mechanics, namely the four double covers of the three rotation groups of the Platonic solids. In an earlier paper I have considered in detail how the smallest of these groups, namely the binary tetrahedral group, of order 24, could give rise to a non-relativistic theory that contains much of the structure of the standard model of particle physics. In this paper I consider how one of the two double covers of the rotation group of the cube might extend this to a relativistic theory.
