Abstract: In this monograph we prove that the nonlinear Lie algebra representation given by the manifestly covariant Maxwell-Dirac (M-D) equations is integrable to a global nonlinear representation $U$ of the Poincar'e group ${calP}_0$ on a differentiable manifold ${calU}_{i}nfty$ of small initial conditions for the M-D equations. This solves, in particular, the Cauchy problem for the M-D equations, namely existence of global solutions for initial data in ${calU}_{i}nfty$ at $t=0$. The existence of modified wave operators $Omeg{a}_{+}$ and $Omeg{a}_{-}$ and asymptotic completeness is proved. The asymptotic representations $U_g^{(epsilon)}=Omeg{a}_e^{-1}psiloncirc{U}_{g}circOmeg{a}_{e}psilon$, $epsilon=pm$, $gin{calP}_0$, turn out to be nonlinear. A cohomological interpretation of the results in the spirit of nonlinear representation theory and its connection to the infrared tail of the electron is given.
