The authors compare the roles of first- and second-order Lagrangian models in field theories. After a short heuristic discussion of \(\mathrm U(1)\) gauge theories, the main emphasis is on the gauge group \(\mathrm{SU}(2,2)\). The authors argue that, while current physics favour first-order models like the Dirac equation, second-order models may open new perspectives. | |||

The authors compare the roles of first- and second-order Lagrangian models in field theories. After a short heuristic discussion of \(\mathrm U(1)\) gauge theories, the main emphasis is on the gauge group \(\mathrm{SU}(2,2)\). The authors argue that, while current physics favour first-order models like the Dirac equation, second-order models may open new perspectives.
