The classical theory of electrodynamics is built upon Maxwell's equations and the concepts of electromagnetic (EM) field, force, energy, and momentum, which are intimately tied together by Poynting's theorem and by the Lorentz force law.…
This paper presents an alternative {\it relativistic nonlinear} approach to the vacuum case of classical electrodynamics. Our view is based on the understanding that the corresponding differential equations should be dynamical in nature.…
This communication is devoted to a brief historical framework and to a comprehensive critical discussion concerning foundational issues of Electrodynamics. Attention is especially focused on the events which, about the end of XIX century,…
Although relativistic electrodynamics is more than 100 year old, there is one neglected topic in its presentation and application: relativistic transformations of electromagnetic integrals. Whereas in theoretical and applied electrodynamics…
We formulate a nonlinear electrodynamic theory which may be viewed as a weighted theory minimally interpolating the classical Maxwell and Born--Infeld theories. We show that, in contrast to the Born--Infeld theory, this new theory…
A fully relativistically covariant formulation of the classical Maxwell electrodynamics of an arbitrarily-moving point charge is presented, purely in terms of gauge invariant potentials without entailing any gauge fixing. A new,…

We consider couplings of electrically and magnetically charged sources to the maximally symmetric non-linear extension of Maxwell's theory called ModMax. The aim is to reveal physical effects which distinguish ModMax from Maxwell's…
A formulation of classical electrodynamics on an energy-momentum background of constant, non-zero curvature is given. The procedure consists of taking the formulation of standard electrodynamics in the energy-momentum representation, and…

The lagrangian of the Kaluza-Klein theory, in its simplest five-dimensional version, should include not only the scalar curvature R, but also the quadratic Gauss-Bonnet invariant. The general lagrangian is computed and the resulting…
The thesis developed by Cornelius Lanczos in his doctoral dissertation is that electrodynamics is a pure field theory which is hyperanalytic over the algebra of biquaternions. In this theory Maxwell's homogeneous equations correspond to a…
We prove that, when linearized, the governing equations of an incompressible elastic continuum yield Maxwell's equations as corollaries. Through judicious distinction between the referential and local descriptions, the principle of material…

The classical theory of electromagnetism is based on Maxwell's macroscopic equations, an energy postulate, a momentum postulate, and a generalized form of the Lorentz law of force. These seven postulates constitute the foundation of a…
We present an alternative Eulerian hydrodynamic model for the electromagnetic field in which the discrete vector indices in Maxwell\s equations are replaced by continuous angular freedoms, and develop the corresponding Lagrangian picture in…
We introduce a class of solutions in $2+1-$dimensional Einstein-Power-Maxwell theory for circularly symmetric electric field. The electromagnetic field is considered with an angular component given by $% F_{\mu \nu }=E_{0}\delta_{\mu…

Elements of a new model of strong interactions are described. The model is based on an extension of electrodynamics that is derived from a regular Lagrangian density. Here the electric and magnetic fields of Maxwell equations play a…
