Some facts of the theory of the Lorentz group are specified for looking atthe problems of light polarization optics in the frames of vectorStokes-Mueller and spinor Jones formalism. In view of great differences betweenproperties of isotropic and time-like vectors in Special Relativity we shouldexpect principal differences in describing completely polarized and partlypolarized light. In particular, substantial differences are revealed whenturning to spinor techniques in the context of the polarized light. BecauseJones complex formalism has close relation to spinor objects of the Lorentzgroup, within the field of the light polarization we could have physicalrealizations on the optical desk of some subtle topological distinctionsbetween orthogonal L_{+}^{\uparrow} =SO_{0}(3.1) and spinor SL(2.C) groups.These topological differences of the groups find their corollaries in theproblem of the so-called spinor structure of physical space-time, some newpoints are considered.
