โœฆ Synopsis


The increasing use of Maxwell's equations necessitates a careful consideration of the best formulation for electromagnetic problems. Advance in the past has been hindered by an unfortunate notation that employs the same symbol V ~ for two entirely different operators--the vector Laplacian and the scalar Laplacian. A general equation is developed in this paper for the vector Laplacian in any orthogonal, curvilinear coordinate system; and this equation allows the simple formulation of all electrodynamic problems by means of the vector Helmholtz equation,

A proposal has been made recently that a special notation be adopted for the Laplacian of a vector. It is shown that such a notation is unjustified since the usual scalar Laplacian gives the correct result when operating on a vector. In a recent article Moon and Spencer (1) 2 develop expressions fo

## Abstract In the present paper we consider domains in โ„^3^ with fractal boundaries. Our main purpose is to study the boundary values of Laplacian vector fields, paying special attention to the problem of decomposing a Hรถlder continuous vector field on the boundary of a domain as a sum of two Hรถld
