Abstract
A DIVERGENCE-FREE theory of the classical electron has been given by Wentzel, and then, with other methods, by Dirac. In quantum theory these methods give an elimination of part of the infinite expressions. Making further the assumption of positive- and negative-energy photons, Dirac eliminates all the infinite expressions.
