Abstract

Dispersion of electromagnetic waves is usually described in terms of an
integro-differential equation. In this paper we show that whenever a differential
operator can be found that annihilates the susceptibility kernel of
the medium, then dispersion can be modeled by a partial differential equation
without nonlocal operators.
