📢Vector Laplacian splits Curl and Divergence

The Vector Laplacian Identity, $\nabla \times(\nabla \times \vec{v})=\nabla(\nabla \cdot \vec{v})-\nabla^2 \vec{v}$, establishes a fundamental relationship between the nested rotational components of a field and its divergence and curvature. This relationship is formally proven through the use of the permutation symbol and the $\varepsilon-\delta$-relation. By analyzing a specific vector field such as $\vec{v} = \langle Axy, Bx^2 \rangle$, the sources demonstrate how divergence depicts shear flow and compression, while the curl characterizes rotation that intensifies away from a central axis. A key takeaway is that the Vector Laplacian Magnitude represents the total curvature of the field; for instance, in fields with quadratic components like $Bx^2$, this magnitude remains a uniform, non-zero constant across the entire domain.
