Electrodynamics as a problem of eigenvalues. I. Maxwell operator and its properties. Momentum-energy tensor

Abstract: A new method of formulation of problems in macroscopic electrodynamics is proposed. Maxwell equations are written in the abstract-operator form. A solution to the formal problem of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the introduced Maxwell operator allows us to use the well-developed mathematical technique of linear operator theory for various electrodynamical problems. In particular, calculation of the momentum-energy tensor, wave generation, perturbation theory, and variational approach can be applied for elec… Show more
