We outline a regular way for solving Maxwell's equations. We take, as the starting point, the notion of vector potentials. The rationale for introducing this notion in electrodynamics is that the set of Maxwell's equations is seemingly…
Einstein's system of equations in the ADM decomposition involves two subsystems of equations: evolution equations and constraint equations. For numerical relativity, one typically solves the constraint equations only on the initial time…
The idea that spacetime points are to be identified by a fleet of clock--carrying particles can be traced to the earliest days of general relativity. Such a fleet of clocks can be described phenomenologically as a reference fluid. One…
