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 sc

Let M be an ordered matroid and C β’β’ M be an exterior algebra over its underlying set E, graded by both corank and nullity. Then C β’0 M is the simplicial chain complex of IN M , the simplicial complex whose simplices are indexed by the independent sets of the matroid. Dually, C 0β’ M is the cochain c
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
Assume that a submanifold M C Rn of an arbitrary codimension k E { 1,. . . , n} is closed in some open set 0 C IR". With a given function ZL E C2(0 \ M) we may associate its trivial extension ii : 0 + IR such that tIlo\~ = u and ~I M 0 . The jump of the Laplacian of the function ZL on the submanifol
