A coordinate transformation conjugates an infinitesimal generator, hence . It fixes the rotation generators and negates the boosts . Therefore it exchanges and , and the parity action on a Lorentz representation is
An irreducible representation is parity invariant precisely when . If , parity invariance requires the reducible sum . Thus the two Weyl-spinor representations and are exchanged, while their direct sum is the parity-invariant Dirac spinor.
