Abstract

It is shown that spatially localized singularity‐free particlelike solutions exist for Lorentz‐covariant complex scalar field theories with minimal gauge‐invariant electromagnetic coupling, a positive‐definite energy density, and suitably prescribed nonlinear self‐interaction. Such a theory provides a perfectly consistent structural model on the classical level for a charged elementary particle of finite positive energy.
