Abstract
A boson representation for fermion operators in three-dimensional quantum systems is constructed. It solves the bosonization problem for the electron gas, posed by Tomonaga, and has a natural extension to the case of Dirac fermions. Two bosons are required for the two fermions of the Dirac equation. Several applications of these results are suggested.Keywords
