Time domain theory of the macroscopic Maxwell equations

Author

Summary, in English

A time domain description of linear macroscopic electromagnetic phenomena

is considered. We show that it is always possible to model the constitutive

relations with a symmetric, positive definite optical response together with a

convolution integral. An initial-boundary value problem is formulated for the

macroscopic Maxwell equations together with a reflection operator modeling

the exterior region. It is shown that the initial-boundary value problem is

well-posed. Dissipation and finite speed of propagation is also considered.
