Abstract
With the help of the apparatus of tensors with values in the Atiyah-Kähler algebra (the apparatus of lambda tensors), a new representation for the relativistic equation of field theory is proposed. The circle of questions under consideration is standard for investigations concerning the theory of the Dirac equation (in this paper, we treat no problems dealing with second quantization).
