In this work, we study the behavior of elementary electromagnetic sources, i.e., point-like electric charges and intrinsic magnetic dipoles, in the presence of homogeneous electromagnetic fields in a classical and covariant setting. We show…
We consider the gravitational effects of a single, fixed-norm, Lorentz-violating timelike vector field. In a cosmological background, such a vector field acts to rescale the effective value of Newton's constant. The energy density of this…
The standard classic special relativistic transformation of the electromagnetic (EM) field under proper Lorentz transformations is revisited. As to the pure Lorentz-boosts, popular treatments on EM transformation contemplate ideal…
The Lorentz transformation is derived without the postulate of the universal limiting speed, and the general Edwards transformation is obtained by using the principle of permutation invariance (covariance). It is shown that the existences…
Any one measurement with polarized light makes it possible to fix the Mueller matrices of the Lorentz type with up to four arbitrary numeric parameters (x, u; z, w). These parameters are subject to the quadratic condition. It is…
We present a pedagogical approach to the Lorentz group. We start by introducing a compact notation to express the elements of the fundamental representation of the rotations group.Lorentz coordinate transformations are derived in a novel…
Lorenz maps are maps of the unit interval with one critical point of order rho>1, and a discontinuity at that point. They appear as return maps of leafs of sections of the geometric Lorenz flow. We construct real a priori bounds for…
Analytical expressions for coordinates of stationary points and conditions for their existence in the ABC flow are received. The type of the stationary points is shown analytically to be saddle-node. Exact expressions for eigenvalues and…
A major issue in harmonic analysis is to capture the phase dependence of frequency representations, which carries important signal properties. It seems that convolutional neural networks have found a way. Over time-series and images,…
We generalize electrodynamics with a second interaction in lightcone. The time-reversible equations for two-body motion define a semiflow on $C^2(\mathbb{R})$ with four state-dependent delays of neutral type and nonlinear gyroscopic terms.…
Shape dynamics is a reframing of canonical general relativity in which time reparametrization invariance is "traded" for a local conformal invariance. We explore the emergence of Lorentz invariance in this model in three contexts: as a…
Wavelet transformation stands as a cornerstone in modern data analysis and signal processing. Its mathematical essence is an invertible transformation that discerns slow patterns from fast ones in the frequency domain. Such an invertible…
In a recent article [1] we have explored alternative decompositions of the Lorentz transformation by adopting the synchronization convention of the target frame at the end and alternately at the outset. In this note we develop the…
The exponential map that characterises the flows of vector fields is the key in understanding the basic structural attributes of control systems in geometric control theory. However, this map does not exists due to the lack of completeness…
According to the postulates of the special theory of relativity (STR), physical quantities such as proper times and Doppler shifts can be obtained from any inertial frame by regarding it as isotropic. Nonetheless many inconsistencies arise…
We discuss general positivity conditions necessary for a definition of a relativistic diffusion on the phase space. We show that Lorentz covariant random vector fields on the forward cone $p^{2}\geq 0$ lead to a definition of a generator of…
The statement that Maxwell's electrodynamics in vacuum is already covariant under Lorentz transformations is commonplace in the literature. We analyse the actual meaning of that statement and demonstrate that Maxwell's equations are…
It has been suggested that one may construct a Lorentz-invariant noncommutative field theory by extending the coordinate algebra to additional, fictitious coordinates that transform nontrivially under the Lorentz group. Integration over…
We investigate the interplay between invariant varieties of vector fields and the inflection locus of linear systems with respect to the vector field. Among the consequences of such investigation we obtain a computational criteria for the…
By numerically computing the steady axisymmetric flow of helium II confined inside a finite aspect ratio Couette annulus, we determine the transition from Ekman flow to Taylor vortex flow as a function of temperature and aspect ratio.We…
