Conformal angular momentum of the electromagnetic field

A. B. Pestov, N. A. Chernikov, N. S. Shavokhina


Abstract: Conformal momentum of electromagnetic field is studied. Scalar product in the space of solutions of the Maxwell equations is introduced. The theorem about the integral of the electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor is proved. The rules of quantization of the electromagnetic field in any Riemann world are formulated. Conformal invariance of the photon behaviour is established.
