We study nonlocal integral equations on bounded domains with finite-range nonlocal interactions that are localized at the boundary. We establish a Green's identity for the nonlocal operator that recovers the classical boundary integral,…
We study the linear phenomenological Maxwell's equations in the presence of a polarizable and magnetizable medium (magnetodielectric). For a dispersive, non-absorptive, medium with equal electric and magnetic permeabilities, the latter can…

Thought experiments like Maxwell's Demon or the Feynman-Smoluchowski Ratchet can help in pursuing the microscopic origin of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Here we present a more sophisticated physical system than a ratchet, consisting of…
Calculation of current and order parameter distribution in inhomogeneous superconductors is often based on a self-consistent solution of Eilenberger equations for quasiclassical Green's functions. Compared to the original Gorkov equations,…

In the classical vacuum Maxwell-Lorentz theory the self-force of a charged point particle is infinite. This makes classical mass renormalization necessary and, in the special relativistic domain, leads to the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac equation…
We propose a new way of looking at the quantum Maxwell's demon problem in terms of conditional action. A "conditional action" on a system is a unitary time evolution, selected according to the result of a previous measurement, which can…
An exact invariant is derived for three-dimensional Hamiltonian systems of $N$ particles confined within a general velocity-independent potential. The invariant is found to contain a time-dependent function $f_{2}(t)$, embodying a solution…
In this note we explore monodromy defects for non-invertible symmetries in Maxwell theory, exploiting the conformal mapping to $AdS_{3} \times S^{1}$. With this approach we recover the spectrum of the defect conformal primaries. We also…
We consider the scattering problem on locally perturbed periodic penetrable dielectric layers, which is formulated in terms of the full vector-valued time-harmonic Maxwell's equations. The right-hand side is not assumed to be periodic. At…

In this work, we focus on some properties of the parity-even sector of the CPT-even electrodynamics of the standard model extension. We analyze how the six non-birefringent terms belonging to this sector modify the static and stationary…
Classical equations of motion that are first-order in time and conserve energy can only be quantized after their variables have been transformed to canonical ones, i.e., variables in which the energy is the system's Hamiltonian. The…
