Geometrization of quantum formalism
Abstract
The hypothesis is suggested that the equation for the Dirac free wave field is, in fact, a group-theoretical relation describing propagation of specific microscopic deviations of space geometry from the euclidean one (closed topological manifolds). The Dirac equation for a hydrogen atom can also be interpreted as a relation that accounts for the symmetry properties of a piece of curved space. Within the framework of this concept, atoms have no any pointlike particles (electrons) inside, and the gauge invariance of electromagnetic field proves to be the natural consequence of the basic principles of the proposed geometrical approach.
