AbstractIt is shown that Huygens's principle holds for the solutions of Maxwell's equations for p-forms of all degrees in a gravitational plane wave space, while the solutions of the wave equation for 1, 2, and 3-forms, however, may have tails.

Numerical Investigations

Maxwell's equations formulated for media with gradually changing conductivity are reduced to Volterra integral equations. Analytical and numerical investigations of the equations are presented for the case of gradual splash-like change in conductivity. Splash-like change in medium parameters can model any discharge phenomena, growing plasma, charge injection, etc. Exact analytical solution for the resolvent is presented and different field behaviours are analysed for the incident field as a plane wave and as an impulse.

Uniform Plane

Because of the differential homogeneity of Maxwell's equations in free space, each solution can be additively perturbed in infinitely many ways into a physically unreasonable solution. Thus to be a solution holds no cachet. In particular, the traditional first example --- the uniform plane wave --- must be considered as only a metaphor.
