Re: dirac equation in curved spacetime

Thus spake vivishek <vivishek.sudhir@xxxxxxxxx>
Is there a single, well-accepted form of the dirac equation for a free
particle in curved spacetime? If not, what are the various
possibilities constructed so far?

Its form is determined by manifest covariance, but of course it may be
treated either as a wave equation or an operator equation as usual. Here
is a selection of papers.
