Asymptotic symmetries of electromagnetism at spatial infinity

Asymptotic symmetries of electromagnetism at spatial infinity

Abstract We analyse the asymptotic symmetries of Maxwell theory at spatial infinity through the Hamiltonian formalism. Precise, consistent boundary conditions are explicitly given and shown to be invariant under asymptotic angle-dependent u(1)-gauge transformations. These symmetries generically have...
