Dirac equations
This article describes several equations named after Paul Dirac.

Note that for technical reasons, lower-regularity results do not automatically imply higher ones when the regularity of one field (e.g. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A} ) is kept fixed.
- LWP for smooth data was obtained in Grs1966

In the nonrelativistic limit this equation converges to a Maxwell-Poisson system for data in the energy space BecMauSb-p2; furthermore one has a local well-posedness result which grows logarithmically in the asymptotic parameter. Earlier work appears in MasNa2003.
