Abstract
We construct a gauge theory of local U(4) inner symmetry in spinor space by treating the matrices as a metric vector. Using the convariant expansion to extract the physical fields, we obtain relations among the masses and the coupling constants, respectively, that the gauge fields satisfy. Generalization to the case where the spinor fields have internal symmetry is also discussed.
