Abstract:
It will be shown (1) that the Dirac equation of electron fits exactly in the pattern of theory required by the method of double inferential state-vector (hereinafter referred to as DIV-method) which was introduced to establish a perfect symmetry in time and (2) that application of the DIV-method to fields leads to a third quantization similar to the formalism proposed by Tanikawa. This paper is intended to shed a further light on the relationship between the electric charge and the two directions of time, and to suggest a consistent method of handling negative energy fields. A new concept of “supercharge” will be introduced.
