We have examined quantum theories of electric-magnetic duality-invariant vector fields enjoying classical conformal invariance in 4-dimensional flat spacetime. We extend Dirac's argument about "the conditions for a quantum field theory to be relativistic" to "those for a quantum theory to be conformal". We realize that electric-magnetic duality-invariant vector theories, together with classical conformal invariance defined in 4-d flat spacetime, are still conformally invariant theories when they are quantized in a way that electric magnetic-duality is manifest.
We would like to thank Alfred D. Shapere for the useful discussion. J.H.O thanks his W.J. This work is supported only by the research fund of Hanyang University(HY-2013).
