For the system of Maxwell equations of electromagnetism in an $l$-periodic composite medium of overall size $L$ ($0<l<L<\infty$), in the low-frequency quasistatic approximation, we develop an electromagnetic version of strain-gradient…

The present study deals with total internal reflection of a plane electromagnetic wave at an infinite plane boundary between a transparent medium and an amplifying or attenuating lower-index medium. Solutions of Maxwell's equations are…

We consider two-dimensional Coulomb gases on the Riemann sphere with determinantal or Pfaffian structures, under external potentials that are invariant under rotations around the axis connecting the north and south poles, and with…

The discrepancy between the results of covariant and non-covariant one-loop calculations for higher-spin fields in quantum cosmology is analyzed. A detailed mode-by-mode study of perturbative quantum gravity about a flat Euclidean…

The final ringdown phase in a coalescence process is a valuable laboratory to test General Relativity and potentially constrain additional degrees of freedom in the gravitational sector. We introduce here an effective description for…

We propose an effective low-energy theory for ferromagnetic Hall states. It describes the charge degrees of freedom, on the edge, by a (1 + 1) dimensional chiral boson theory, and the spin degrees of freedom by the (2 + 1)dimensional…

A new formulation of the Maxwell equations based on two vector and two scalar potentials is proposed. The use of these potentials allows the electromagnetic field equations to be written in the form of a hyperbolic system. In contrast to…

Despite the seeming simplicity of the theory, calculating (and even defining) entanglement entropy for the Maxwell theory of a $U(1)$ gauge field in (3+1) dimensions has been the subject of controversy. It is generally accepted that the…

In this paper we present three different numerical approaches to account for curl-type involution constraints in hyperbolic partial differential equations for continuum physics. All approaches have a direct analogy to existing and…

In this paper we extend the quasitopological electromagnetism, recently introduced by H.-S. Liu et al. [arXiv:1907.10876], to arbitrary dimensions by introducing a fundamental $p$-form field. This allows us to construct new dyonic black…

Subdominant contributions to the entanglement entropy of quantum fields include logarithmic corrections to the area law characterized by universal coefficients that are independent of the ultraviolet regulator and capture detailed…

Let X be a compact complex manifold endowed with a big line bundle L. We define the energy at equilibrium of a weighted subset as the Monge-Ampere energy of the associated extremal plurisubharmonic weight. We prove the differentiability of…

We consider entanglement entropy between two halves of space separated by a plane, in the theory of free photon in 3+1 dimensions. We show how to separate local gauge invariant quantities that belong to the two spatial regions. We calculate…

Maxwell Electrodynamics can be described either in Minkowski space-time or in a dynamically equivalent way in a curved geometry constructed in terms of the electromagnetic field. For this the field must have a superior bound limited by a…

In this paper, we consider the solutions of Einstein gravity in the presence of a generalized Maxwell theory, namely power Maxwell invariant. First, we investigate the analogy of nonlinear charged black hole solutions with the Van der Waals…

Given a continuous, odd, reducible and semi-simple $2$-dimensional representation $\bar\rho_0$ of $G_{\mathbb{Q},Np}$ over a finite field of odd characteristic $p$, we study the relation between the universal deformation ring of the…

The presence of a topologically non-trivial discrete invariants implies the existence of gapless modes in finite samples, but it does not necessarily imply their localization. The disappearance of the indirect energy gap in the bulk…

Topological phases of matter are one of the hallmarks of quantum condensed matter physics. One of their striking features is a bulk-boundary correspondence wherein the topological nature of the bulk manifests itself on boundaries via exotic…

We present Maxwell equations with source terms for the electromagnetic field interacting with a moving electron in a spin-orbit coupled semiconductor heterostructure. We start with the eight--band ${\bm k}{\bm p}$ model and derive the…

While one of the most important and intriguing features of the topological insulators is the presence of edge states, the closed-form expressions for the edge states of some famous topological models are still lacking. Here, we focus on the…
