The mass and electromagnetic terms are not added by hand but emerge naturally from the formalism. A two dimensional version of this equation is derived by starting with a model in three dimensions and deriving equations for the dynamics of the lowest Fourier modes assuming one dimension to be periodic. Generalizations to higher dimensions are discussed.Other Condensed MatterA Derivation of Dirac's Equation From a Model of an Elastic Mediumtext
