Quantum electrodynamics, Maxwell's equations, photo realistic rendering
Rendering techniques simulate 3D light transport. The typical algorithms only approximate electromagnetic wave interactions. The classical theory of electrodynamics is itself a macroscopic manifestation of the elemental quantum theory of electrodynamics (QED), which describes how individual photons behave. In this paper we explain how QED leads to Maxwell's equations.
