Dual electromagnetism: helicity, spin, momentum and angular momentum

KY Bliokh, AY Bekshaev, F Nori - New Journal of Physics, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
The dual symmetry between electric and magnetic fields is an important intrinsic property of
Maxwell equations in free space. This symmetry underlies the conservation of optical helicity …

Electric–magnetic symmetry and Noether's theorem

RP Cameron, SM Barnett - New Journal of Physics, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
In the absence of charges, Maxwell's equations are highly symmetrical. In particular, they
place the electric and magnetic fields on equal footing. In light of this electric–magnetic …

Field theories with higher-group symmetry from composite currents

T Brauner - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract Higher-form symmetries are associated with transformations that only act on
extended objects, not on point particles. Typically, higher-form symmetries live alongside …

Framework for nonlocally related partial differential equation systems and nonlocal symmetries: Extension, simplification, and examples

G Bluman, AF Cheviakov, NM Ivanova - Journal of mathematical …, 2006 - pubs.aip.org
