It is argued that static electromagnetic sources induce Weyl-Majumdar-Papapetrou solutions for the spacetime metric. The acceleration in such fields has a term many orders of magnitude stronger than usual perturbative terms. Two…
In this article we will explore the spacetime phase structure inside the Infeld-van der Waerden formalisms, showing that Maxwell's theory in this scenario leads to an axion-like phase electrodynamics, which suggests that this phase may…
Three geometric formulations of the Hamiltonian structure of the macroscopic Maxwell equations are given: one in terms of the double de Rham complex, one in terms of L2 duality, and one utilizing an abstract notion of duality. The final of…
Non-linear electrodynamics arising in the frames of field theories in noncommutative space-time is examined on the base of quaternion formalism. The problem of form-invariance of the corresponding nonlinear constitutive relations governed…
Determinants of the second-rank tensors stand useful in forming generally invariant terms as in the case of the volume element of the gravitational actions. Here, we extend the action of the matter fields by an arbitrary function $f(D)$ of…
The classical electromagnetic and gravitomagnetic fields in the vacuum, in (3+2) dimensions, described by the Maxwell-Nordstrom equations, are quantized. These equations are rederived from the field tensor which follows from a…
We present a gauge invariant generalization of Maxwell's equations and p-form electromagnetism to Kaehler spacetimes.
A fully relativistically covariant and manifestly gauge invariant formulation of classical Maxwell electrodynamics is presented, purely in terms of gauge invariant potentials without entailing any gauge fixing. We show that the…
We derive source-free Maxwell-like equations in flat spacetime for any helicity "j" by comparing the transformation properties of the 2(2j+1) states that carry the manifestly covariant representations of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group with…
The axiomatic structure of the electromagnetic theory is outlined. We will base classical electrodynamics on (1) electric charge conservation, (2) the Lorentz force, (3) magnetic flux conservation, and (4) on the Maxwell-Lorentz spacetime…
The coupling of the electromagnetic field to gravity is an age-old problem. Presently, there is a resurgence of interest in it, mainly for two reasons: (i) Experimental investigations are under way with ever increasing precision, be it in…
The Maxwell theory on non-commutative spaces has been considered. The non-linear equations of electromagnetic fields on non-commutative spaces were obtained in the compact spin-tensor (quaternion) form. It was shown that the plane…
We derive a superpotential for null electromagnetic fields in which the field line structure is in the form of an arbitrary torus knot. These fields are shown to correspond to single copies of a class of anti-self-dual Kerr-Schild…
An exact calculation of the local electric field ${\bf E}({\bf r})$ is described for the case of a time dependent point electric dipole ${\bf p}e^{-i\omega t}$ in the top layer of an $\epsilon_2$, $\epsilon_1$, $\epsilon_2$ three parallel…
We quantize the Maxwell theory in the presence of a electric charge in a "dual" Loop Representation, i.e. a geometric representation of magnetic Faraday's lines. It is found that the theory can be seen as a theory without sources, except by…
Non-linear electrodynamics arising in the frames of field theories in non-commutative space-time is examined on the base of the Riemann-Silberstein-Majorana-Oppenheimer formalism. The problem of form-invariance of the non-linear…
Fractals are measurable metric sets with non-integer Hausdorff dimensions. If electric and magnetic fields are defined on fractal and do not exist outside of fractal in Euclidean space, then we can use the fractional generalization of the…
We study some symmetry and integrability properties of four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell gravity with nonvanishing cosmological constant in the presence of Killing vectors. First of all, we consider stationary spacetimes, which lead, after…
It is argued that static electric or magnetic fields induce Weyl-Majumdar-Papapetrou solutions for the metric of spacetime. Their gravitational acceleration includes a term many orders of magnitude stronger than usual perturbative terms. It…
This paper is intended to investigate the relation between electrodynamics in anisotropic material media and its analogous formulation in an spacetime, with non-null Riemann curvature tensor. After discussing the electromagnetism via chiral…
