Summary: We construct our mathematical model for the neutrino as follows.
Firstly, we consider the Yang-Mills equation for the affine connection: \[ \delta_{\text{YM}}R=0\tag{1} \] where \(R\) is the Riemann curvature tensor and \(\delta_{\text{YM}}\) is the divergence on curvatures.
Secondly, we consider the Einstein equation:
\[ \text{Ric}=0\tag{2} \]
where Ric is the Ricci curvature tensor. Equation (2) describes the absence of sources of gravitation.
The objective of this paper is the study of the combined system (1), (2) which is a system of 80 real non-linear partial differential equations with 80 real unknowns \(g_{\mu\nu}\), \({\Gamma^\lambda}_{\mu\nu}\). In other words, we are combining the basic equation of relativistic quantum mechanics (Yang-Mills equation) with the basic equation of general relativity (Einstein equation).
