Dirac-Hestenes Lagrangian

Publication date 20 February 2000

Abstract: We discuss the variational principle within Quantum Mechanics in terms of the noncommutative even Space Time sub-Algebra, the Clifford

R a

-algebra

C l_{1, 3}^{+}

. A fundamental ingredient, in our multivectorial algebraic formulation, is the adoption of a

D

-complex geometry,

D e q u i v s p a n_{R R} 1, g a m m a_{21}

,

g a m m a_{21} i n C l_{1, 3}^{+}

. We derive the Lagrangian for the Dirac-Hestenes equation and show that such Lagrangian must be mapped on

D o t i m e s c a l F

, where

c a l F

denotes an

R a

-algebra of functions.
