Abstract: (Elsevier)

A relativistic Lagrangian field theory of spin-half particles using a four-dimensional Dirac-representation of O(4,2) is considered. In this theory a generalized Dirac current with a “convective” term is used. From the field equation a point-quantum mechanical Hamiltonian is derived and certain integrated quantities are investigated. A general divergence term that can be added to a free Lagrangian density without changing the corresponding field equation is suggested and illustrated. The scale invariance of the theory is examined. Also the theory is second-quantized and is studied in the infinite momentum limit.
