It is first shown that the scalar product on any orthogonal space (V, g) allows one to define linear isomorphisms of the vector spaces of bivectors and 2-forms on V with the underlying vector spaces of the Lie algebra so(p, q) and its dual,…
The concept of electric and magnetic field lines is intrinsically non-relativistic. Nonetheless, for certain types of fields satisfying certain geometric properties, field lines can be defined covariantly. More precisely, two…
We present a new unified covariant description of electromagnetic field properties for an arbitrary space-time. We derive a complete set of irreducible components describing a six-dimensional electromagnetic field from the Maxwell and…
A theory of electromagnetism is proposed that is based on the Fermi Lagrangian, which is symmetric under electromagnetic spin rotation. Its features are: - the four-potential is unambiguously determined by the inhomogeneous wave equation…
In 2+1D, topological electromagnetic phases are defined as atomic-scale media which host photonic monopoles in the bulk band structure and respect bosonic symmetries. Additionally, they support topologically protected spin-1 edge states,…
We introduce the concept of emergent electric field. This is distinguished from the fundamental one in that the emergent electric field directly appears in observations through the Lorentz force, while the latter enters the phase space as…
This paper revisits the geometric foundations of electromagnetic theory, by studying Faraday's concept of field lines. We introduce "covariant electromagnetic field lines," a novel construct that extends traditional field line concepts to a…
The electromagnetic analog of an elastic spring-mass network is constructed. These electromagnetic circuits offer the promise of manipulating electromagnetic fields in new ways, and linear electrical circuits correspond to a subclass of…
We present a constructive proof that all gauge invariant Lorentz scalars in Electrodynamics can be expressed as a function of the quadratic ones.
Fields of Lorentz transformations on a space--time are related to tangent bundle self isometries. In other words, a gauge transformation with respect to the Minkowski metric on each fibre. Any such isometry can be expressed, at least…
We propose a new relativistic Lorentz-invariant spin-noncommutative algebra. Using the Weyl ordering of noncommutative position operators, we build an analogue of the Moyal-Groenewald product for the proposed algebra. The Lagrange function…
The concept "Classical Electromagnetism" in the title of the paper here refers to a theory built on three foundations: relativity principles, the original Maxwell's equations, and the mathematics of exterior calculus. In this theory of…
Electronic Structure Theory (EST) describes the behavior of electrons in matter and is used to predict material properties. Conventionally, this involves forming a Hamiltonian and solving the Schr\"odinger equation through discrete…
For an arbitrary electromagnetic field, we define a prepotential $S$, which is a complex-valued function of spacetime. The prepotential is a modification of the two scalar potential functions introduced by E. T. Whittaker. The prepotential…
The sets ${\Phi({F}^{\mu \nu})}, {\Phi(\tilde {F}^{\mu \nu})}$ of linear functionals on the space $< F,+,\cdot >$ represent themself linear space $< \Phi,+,\cdot >$ over the field of \textit{scalars} $P$, which is dual to space $< F,+,\cdot…
Fermi-surface spin splitting generated by non-relativistic exchange fields provides a new route to topological superconductivity without relying on strong spin-orbit coupling. Here, we study superconducting instabilities of a square-lattice…
We present a manifestly covariant formulation of relativistic electromagnetism, focusing on the computation of electromagnetic fields from moving charges in a manifestly Lorentz-covariant manner. The electromagnetic field at a given…
Singular optics aims to understand and manipulate light's topological defects, pioneered by the discovery that phase vortex lines, strands of destructive interference, naturally occur in scalar wave fields. Monochromatic electromagnetic…
We systematically study gapless edge modes corresponding to $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases of two-dimensional three-state Potts paramagnets on a triangular lattice. First, we derive microscopic lattice models for…
Topology in photonics comes in two distinct flavors: global and local. Global topology considers invariants that are obtained by integrating over the energy band, whereas local topology considers defects, typically vortices, in the…
