This new operator has a property similar to that of the Laplacian operator;however, unlike the Laplacian operator, the new operator requires only once-differentiability. A simpler formula is derived for the classical Helmholtz decomposition. Orthogonality of the solenoidal and irrotational parts of a vector field, the uniqueness of the familiar inverse-square laws, and the existence of solution of a system of first-order PDEs in 3 dimensions are proved. New proofs are given for the Helmholtz Decomposition Theorem and the Divergence theorem. The proofs use the relations between the rectangular-Cartesian and spherical-polar coordinate systems. Finally, an application is made to the study of Maxwell’s equations.展开更多

We will show, (1) for a complete strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold , every pseudo bi-harmonic isometric immersion into a Riemannian manifold of non-positive curvature, with finite energy and finite bienergy, must be pseudo harmonic;(2) for a smooth foliated map of a complete, possibly non-compact, foliated Riemannian manifold into another foliated Riemannian manifold, of which transversal sectional curvature is non-positive, we will show that if it is transversally bi-harmonic map with the finite energy and finite bienergy, then it is transversally harmonic;(3) we will claim that the similar result holds for principal G-bundle over a Riemannian manifold of negative Ricci curvature.展开更多
