Existence of a Unique Local Solution to the Many-body Maxwell-Schrödinger Initial Value Problem

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the many-body problem of charged particles interacting with their self-generated electromagnetic field. We model the dynamics of the particles by the many-body Maxwell-Schrödinger system, where the particles are treated quantum mechanically and the electromagnetic field is a classical quantity. We prove the existence of a unique local in time solution to this nonlinear initial value problem using a contraction mapping argument.
