vector potential
Let be a vector field in with continuous
partial derivatives
. Then the following three conditions are equivalent
(http://planetmath.org/Equivalent3):
- •
The surface integrals of over all contractible closed surfaces (http://planetmath.org/Sphere) vanish:
- •
The divergence
of vanishes everywhere in the field (http://planetmath.org/VectorField):
- •
There exists the vector potential
