I want to clarify my question. In fact, a linear system is caracterised by a linear operator H shch that
Ao = H Ai, where Ai and Ao are respectively the input and output. A mode of this linear system should satisfy
Ao = λ Ai, so that H Ai = λ Ai.
However, in the case of helmholtz equation ∆E...
In the book "Fundamentals of photonics", the authors defined waveguide modes using the notion of linear systems, where they said:
"Every linear system is characterized by special inputs that are invariant to the system, i.e., inputs that are not altered (except for a multiplicative constant)...
This allows simplifying some expressions.
Are there any criteria to judge the validity of such a condition?
Are there any reference that mention different gauge conditions other than Coulomb and Lorenz conditions?
How do we verify whether a condition on the magnetic vector potential A constitutes a possible gauge choice ?
Specifically, could a relation in the form: A x F(r,t) = 0, be a gauge , where F is an arbitrary vector field?

Hi,
Given a smooth distribution of lines in R2, could we assert that there is a unique distribution of curves such that:
- the family of curves "fill in" R2 completely
- every curve is tangent at every point to one of the smooth distribution of lines
