It is shown that the operators $N(u), Q/e S(u)$ and $Q^2$ form an infinite Lie algebra. One can conclude from this algebra that $\DeltaN(u) = (4/π) Q^2$, where $Δ$ is the Laplace operator in the Lobachevsky space of four-velocities $u$, thus relating the total charge $Q$ with the number of infrared photons.Plain TeX file (phyzzx macro).
