Extract

In an earlier paper (1), which will be referred to as A, the present author has demonstrated the relativistic invariance, for general transformations of coordinates, of the Einstein-Bose and Fermi-Dirac quantizations of linear field equations derived from higher order Lagrangians. The proof consisted of the identification of the commutation relations with the generalized Poisson brackets introduced by Weiss (2) and proving the invariance of the latter.
