On the initial-value problem of the Maxwell-Lorentz equations

چکیده
We consider the Maxwell-Lorentz equations, i.e., the equation of motion of a charged dust coupled to Maxwell’s equations, on an arbitrary general-relativistic spacetime. We decompose this system of equations into evolution equations and constraints, and we demonstrate that the evolution equations are strongly hyperbolic. This result guarantees that the initial-value problem of the Maxwell-Lorentz equations is well-posed. We illustrate this general result with a discussion of spherically symmetric solutions on Minkowski spacetime.

متن کاملA distinct numerical approach for the solution of some kind of initial value problem involving nonlinear q-fractional differential equations
The fractional calculus deals with the generalization of integration and differentiation of integer order to those ones of any order. The q-fractional differential equation usually describe the physical process imposed on the time scale set Tq. In this paper, we first propose a difference formula for discretizing the fractional q-derivative of Caputo type with order and scale index . We es...

متن کاملGeneralized H-differentiability for solving second order linear fuzzy differential equations
In this paper, a new approach for solving the second order fuzzy differential equations (FDE) with fuzzy initial value, under strongly generalized H-differentiability is presented. Solving first order fuzzy differential equations by extending 1-cut solution of the original problem and solving fuzzy integro-differential equations has been investigated by some authors (see for example cite{darabi...
