Description

Within the framework of Poincare covariant relativistic quantum mechanics the dynamics generates fully covariant conserved currents from current density operators that are covariant under the kinematic subgroup. Simple toy models provide convenient comparisons of the qualitative features generated by different forms of kinematics. (author)
