The 3D split of Maxwell's equations induces geometric terms that are the (generalized) curvature and torque of the connection. The notion of torque is introduced here as a Lie coalgebra-valued endomorphism field and measures the deviation of a connection from being principal.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-03-31T23:47:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "83A05", "51P05" ], "keywords": [ "maxwell equations", "relativistic observer", "maxwells equations induces geometric terms", "lie group structure", "lie coalgebra-valued endomorphism field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
