Abstract

We study the theory of the (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) representation in helicity basis. Helicity eigenstates are not the parity eigenstates. This is in accordance with the consideration of Berestetskii, Lifshitz and Pitaevskii. Relations to the Gelfand-Tsetlin-Sokolik-type quantum field theory are discussed. Finally, a new form of the parity operator is proposed. It commutes with the Hamiltonian.
