摘要
We discuss the equivalent form of the Ldvy-Leblond equation such that the nilpotent matrices are two-dimensional. We show that this equation can be obtained in the non-relativistic limit of the (2+1)-dimensional Dirac equation. Phrthermore, we analyze the case with four-dimensional matrices, propose a Hamiltonian for the equation in (3+1) dimensions, and solve it for a Coulomb potential The quantized energy levels for the hydrogen atom are obtained, and the result is consistent with the non-relativistic quantum mechanics.
