A six dimensional analysis of Maxwell's Field Equations
A framework based on an extension of Kaluza's original idea of using a five dimensional space to unify gravity with electromagnetism is used to analyze Maxwell\'{}s field equations. The extension consists in the use of a six dimensional space in which all equations of electromagnetism may be obtained using only Einstein's field equation. Two major advantages of this approach to electromagnetism are discussed, a full symmetric derivation for the wave equations for the potentials and a natural inclusion of magnetic monopoles without using any argument based on singularities.
