An Introduction to Relativistic Quantum Mechanics
by M. De Sanctis
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 53
Description:
By using the general concepts of special relativity and the requirements of quantum mechanics, Dirac equation is derived and studied. Only elementary knowledge of spin and rotations in quantum mechanics and standard handlings of linear algebra are employed for the development of the present work.

Time in Quantum Mechanicsby Curt A. Moyer - arXiv
The failure of conventional quantum theory to recognize time as an observable and to admit time operators is addressed. We emphasize the role of the Hamiltonian as the generator of translations in time to construct time states.
