Electromagnetic theory and computation : a topological approach / Paul W. Gross, P. Robert Kotiuga.

Although topology was recognized by Gauss and Maxwell to play a pivotal role in the formulation of electromagnetic boundary value problems, it is a largely unexploited tool for field computation. The development of algebraic topology since Maxwell provides a framework for linking data structures, al...
