Spontaneous emission from driven polar quantum systems

We investigate spontaneous radiative processes in a driven polar two-level system whose interaction with the laser field is dominated by broken inversion symmetry rather than by the usual transition dipole coupling. Using a polaron transformation, we derive the dressed eigenstate...

Electromagnetism: An intrinsic approach to Hadamard's method of descent

We present a systematic geometric framework for the dimensional reduction of classical electromagnetism based on the concept of descent along vector fields of invariance. By exploring the interplay between the Lie derivative and the Hodge star operator, we implement descent condi...
