Abstract
A relativistic generalization of the Lee model is constructed and solved in the first sector. The solubility is achieved with an indefinite metric and a redefinition of antiparticle operators which amounts to a selection rule prohibiting pair creation. The renormalization of the -particle results in three dressed states, one of which is a ghost. The properties of these states and their dependence on cutoff and coupling strength are discussed. The effects of various modifications of the interaction are analyzed. Thirdly, the scattering problem is solved exactly.
