Definition

A relativistic quantum concept defining wave equations and state representations consistent with relativistic kinematics. It governs spinor structure, dispersion relations, and coupling to electromagnetic potentials when included. It does not replace full field-theoretic treatment for particle creation processes and is applied within stated approximations.
