Spacetime algebra as a powerful tool for electromagnetism
by Justin Dressel, Konstantin Y. Bliokh, Franco Nori
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 118
Description:
We present a comprehensive introduction to spacetime algebra that emphasizes its practicality and power as a tool for the study of electromagnetism. We carefully develop this natural (Clifford) algebra of the Minkowski spacetime geometry, with a particular focus on its intrinsic (and often overlooked) complex structure.

Variational Principle of Extremum in Electromechanical and Electrodynamic Systems
by Solomon I. Khmelnik - viXra
Here we shall formulate the variational optimum principle for electromechanical systems of arbitrary configuration, in which electromagnetic processes are going on. The principle is generalized for systems described by partial differential equations.

Introduction to Extended Electrodynamics
by Stoil Donev - arXiv
This paper summarizes the results obtained in the frame of a particular non-linearization of Classical Electrodynamics. The main purpose is to have a reliable field-theoretical approach in describing (3+1) soliton-like electromagnetic formations.
