On new symmetries and conservation laws for an electromagnetic field
- 1. AN Ukrainskoj SSR, Kiev. Inst. Matematiki
Description
The problem of existence of an additional symmetry, besides relativistic and conformal invariance, is considered for the Maxwell equations, because the symmetry with respect to the proper conformal transformations doesn't lead to new conservation laws. Equations for an electromagnetic field are shown to possess a hidden non-Lie symmetry, from which the existence of new (non-classical) integrals of motion follows. The non-Lie symmetry of equations of motion can be used to describe polarized properties of the electromagnetic field
