Summary:
Recently, some novel boundary conditions have been observed to arise at interfaces of certain electromagnetic media in which plane waves are not restricted by a dispersion equation. In the present study an attempt is made to define most general media in which dispersion equations are identically satisfied for any plane wave. Applying four-dimensional formalism, it is shown that there are three classes of media satisfying this requirement.
