Maxwell's equations are modified to incorporate a scalar field to account for the London's superconductivity. Assuming the electromagnetic field is described by the Klein-Gordon equation, London's equations of superconductivity are then…

I give an overview over some work on rigorous renormalization theory based on the differential flow equations of the Wilson-Wegner renormalization group. I first consider massive Euclidean $\phi_4^4$-theory. The renormalization proofs are…
Inspired by the experiment from Moresco \& Alboussi\`ere (2004, J. Fluid Mech.), we study the stability of a liquid metal flow in a rectangular, electrically insulating duct with a steady homogeneous transverse magnetic field. The Lorentz…
It is by now well-known that a Lorentz force law and the homogeneous Maxwell equations can be derived from commutation relations among Euclidean coordinates and velocities, without explicit reference to momentum, action or variational…
A new model is proposed for low $Rm$ MHD flows which remain turbulent even in the presence of a magnetic field. These flows minimize the Joule dissipation because of their tendency to become two-dimensional and, therefore to suppress all…
We consider a family of non-linear theories of electromagnetism that interpolate between Born-Infeld at small distances and ModMax at large distances. These models are duality invariant and feature a $K-$mouflage screening in the…
We construct a Lagrangian for general nonlinear electrodynamics that features electric and magnetic potentials on equal footing. In the language of this Lagrangian, discrete and continuous electric-magnetic duality symmetries can be…
Classical BRST invariance in the pure spinor formalism for the open superstring is shown to imply the supersymmetric Born-Infeld equations of motion for the background fields. These equations are obtained by requiring that the left and…
We study magnetically-charged supersymmetric flow equations in a consistent truncation of gauged $\mathcal{N}\,=\,8$ supergravity in five dimensions. This truncation gives gauged $\mathcal{N}\,=\,2$ supergravity coupled to two vector…
Large $N_c$ and holographic arguments, as well as Monte Carlo results, suggest that the topological structure of the QCD vacuum is dominated by codimension-one membranes which appear as thin dipole layers of topological charge. Such…
Based on the variational field theory framework, we extend our previous mean-field formalism, taking into account the electrostatic correlations of the ions. We employ a general covariant approach and derive a total stress tensor that…
The Magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) equations in the presence of a guiding magnetic field are investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. The basis of the investigation consists of 9 runs forced at the small scales. The results…
The zero curvature representation for two dimensional integrable models is generalized to spacetimes of dimension d+1 by the introduction of a d-form connection. The new generalized zero curvature conditions can be used to represent the…
We establish a shallow water model for flows of electrically conducting fluids in homogeneous static magnetic fields that are confined between two parallel planes where turbulent Hartmann layers are present. This is achieved by modelling…
We define a manifestly supersymmetric version of the $T \overline{T}$ deformation appropriate for a class of $(0+1)$-dimensional theories with $\mathcal{N} = 1$ or $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetry, including one presentation of the…
We study five-dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ Superconformal Field Theories of the linear quiver type. These are deformed by a relevant operator, corresponding to a homogeneous mass term for certain matter fields. The free energy is calculated at…
The issue of justifying the eddy current approximation of Maxwell's equations is re-considered in the time-dependent setting. Convergence of the solution operators is shown in the sense of strong operator limits.
We consider the Born-Infeld action for symmetry-preserving, orientable D-branes in compact group manifolds. We find classical solutions that obey the flux quantization condition. They correspond to conformally invariant boundary conditions…
For all Poincar\'e invariant Lagrangians of the form ${\cal L}\equiv f(F_{\mu\nu})$, in three Euclidean dimensions, where $f$ is any invariant function of a non-compact $U(1)$ field strength $F_{\mu\nu}$, we find that the only continuum…
