contents We show that a simplified version of the Dirac interaction operator given by $\hat H_\mathrm{I} \propto \int d\mathbf{k}d\mathbf{p}(\hat a(\mathbf{k}) + \hat a^\dagger(-\mathbf{k})) \hat b^\dagger(\mathbf{p} + \mathbf{k}) \hat b(\mathbf{p})/\sqrt{|\mathbf{k}|}$ is self-adjoint on a certain domain that is dense in the Hilbert space, even without any cutoffs. The technique that we use for showing this can potentially be extended to a much wider range of operators as well. This technique might therefore potentially lead to more mathematically well-defined theories of QFT in the future.
