Abstract

We have studied a relativistic electron in the presence of a uniform magnetic field and scalar potential in the cosmic string spacetime. The exact solutions of the Dirac equation with a Coulomb-like scalar potential and linear vector potential through the gravitational fields are found using Lie algebras.
