One can interpret the Dirac equation either as giving the dynamics for a classical field or a quantum wave function. Here I examine whether Maxwell's equations, which are standardly interpreted as giving the dynamics for the classical…
The governing equations of Maxwell electrodynamics in multi-dimensional spaces are derived from the variational principle of least action which is applied to the action function of the electromagnetic field. The Hamiltonian approach for the…
An inconsistency of quantum field theory, regarding the signs of vacuum energy and vacuum pressure of elementary fields versus non-elementary fields (like e.g. phonon fields), is pointed out. An improved law for the canonical quantization…
