Abstract
Maxwell's equations, Lorentz's equations of motion, and Dirac's equations are investigated on a cosmological background. Maxwell's equations are conform invariant and the equations of motion can easily be made conform invariant. Then, without introducing any new assumptions, Dirac's equations are seen to be conform invariant. In open universes the solutions of Maxwell's and Dirac's equations are the same as in flat Minkowski space. The behavior of these equations is different in closed universes by reasons of topology. In closed universes both Maxwell's and Dirac's equations provide new eigenvalue problems. Dirac's equations exhibit a marked difference between an elliptic and a spherical closed universe.
