High-frequency limit of the Maxwell-Landau-Lifshitz equations in the diffractive optics regime*

We study the Maxwell-Landau-Lifshitz system for highly oscillating initial data, with characteristic frequencies O(1 / ε) and amplitude O(1), over long time intervals O(1 / ε), in the limit ε → 0. We show that a nonlinear Schrödinger equation gives a good approximation for the envelope of the soluti...
