In absence of currents and charges the quantized electromagnetic field can be described by wave functions which for each individual wave vector are normalized to one. The resulting formalism involves reducible representations of the…

Using the isomorphism between highest weight U_q(sl_2)-modules and homologies of certain local systems on the configuration spaces, constructed by Varchenko, we give a geometric construction of the dual of the Lusztig's canonical basis in a…

We provide a full realization of the electromagnetic duality at the boundary by extending the phase space of Maxwell's theory through the introduction of edge modes and their conjugate momenta. We show how such extension, which follows from…

A new representation of Lagrangians of 4D nonlinear electrodynamics is considered. In this new formulation, in parallel with the standard Maxwell field strength F, an auxiliary bispinor (tensor) field V is introduced. The gauge field…

Huyghens principle and Planck law are studied in Maxwell and Maxwell-Chern-Simons frameworks in (2+1) dimensions. Contrary to (3+1) dimensions, massless photons are shown to violate Huyghens principle in planar world. In addition, we obtain…

Photons, i.e. the basic energy quanta of monochromatic waves, are highly non-localised and occupy all available space in one dimension. This non-local property can complicate the modelling of the quantised electromagnetic field in the…

We study the quantum theory of two-dimensional electrons in a magnetic field and an electric field generated by a homogeneous background. The dynamics separates into a microscopic and macroscopic mode. The latter is a circular Hall current…

Choosing the right first quantization basis in quantum optics is critical for the interpretation of experimental results. The usual frequency basis is, for instance, inappropriate for short, subcycle waveforms. Deriving first quantization…
