The Dirac-Hestenes Lagrangian

We discuss the variational principle within Quantum Mechanics in terms of the noncommutative even Space Time sub-Algebra, the Clifford $\Ra$-algebra $Cl_{1,3}^+$. A fundamental ingredient, in our multivectorial algebraic formulation, is the adoption of a $\D $-complex geometry, $\D \equiv span_{\RR} \{1,γ_{21} \}$, $γ_{21} \in Cl_{1,3}^+$. We derive the Lagrangian for the Dirac-Hestenes equation and show that such Lagrangian must be mapped on $\D \otimes {\cal F}$, where $\cal F$ denotes an $\Ra$-algebra of functions.
