Following this premise, we point out Lorentz-invariant Lagrangians whose Euler-Lagrange equations contain a subsystem equivalent to the Euler-Lagrange equations of the standard model with covariantly regularized propagators.20 pages, revtexHigh Energy Physics - TheoryFramework for a theory that underlies the standard modeltext
