Abstract

The dynamic generation of gauge invariance for the role of Lorentz invariance and the origin of internal symmetries was analyzed. The physical non-observability of the spontaneous breakdown of Laorentz symmetry (SBLS) was assumed as the reason for all Lorentz nonvariant effects. A symmetry was observed for the relativistically invariant Lagrangian with arbitrary coupling for all the involved fields and to the massless vector field in both Abelian and non-Abelian cases. Two-component left-handed Weyl fields were used to reprsent the fermions to study its interaction with a vector field.
