Abstract
Let A, B, C, D be arbitrary vector fields assummed to be continous and differentiable everywhere except at a finite number of points, and let ϕ and Ψ be arbitrary scalar fields for which the same assumptions are adopted. If A · B is the scalar product and A × B the vector product then the following algebraic relations are true:
Mainly adopted from Panofsky, W., Phillips, M. (1962): Classical Electricity and Magnetism (Addision-Wesley, Reading MA).
