Abstract
It is shown in the framework of the relativistic quantum mechanics that direct subtraction of the interaction energy of an electron with a magnetic field from the kinetic energy or its addition to the latter in the strength function contradicts the well-known fact that the magnetic field does no positive work on a charged particle.
