The New Action Function and the Unitary Field Theory

Abstract

A new form of the variation principle is given using the sum T of the Lagrangian L and the Hamiltonian as an action function. This new form of the variational principle enables us to find a new special action function, which conserves the chief features of Born's theory while changing some of its former results. To a given charge correspond two static solutions with central symmetry, one giving a finite, the other an infinite energy. The potential of the one (light) particle is analogous to that in Born's theory while the potential of the other resembles a potential barrier. Also, by using the new action function, the symmetry between electric and magnetic fields ceases to exist.
