Key Equations
$$\psi(x) = \begin{pmatrix} \psi_1(x) \\ \psi_2(x) \\ \psi_3(x) \\ \psi_4(x) \end{pmatrix}$$
$$-\gamma^\nu \gamma^\mu \partial_\nu \partial_\mu - m^2 = -\frac{1}{2}\{\gamma^\nu, \gamma^\mu\}\partial_\nu \partial_\mu - m^2 = -\partial_\mu \partial^\mu - m^2$$
$$j^0 = \psi^\dagger \psi \geq 0$$
$$\frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial(\partial_\mu \psi)} = i\bar{\psi}\gamma^\mu$$
Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
