Suppose all second partial derivatives of F = F (x, y) are continuous and F_{xx} + F_{yy} = 0 on an open rectangle R.
Show that F_ydx - F_xdy = 0 is exact on R, and therefore there’s a function G such that
G_x = −F_y and Gy = F_x in R.

To prove that F_ydx + F_xdy = 0 is exact on R,
I have F_{xx} + F_{yy} = 0
which is F_{xx}=-F_{yy}
Integrating both sides and cancel out the constants I obtain
F_x=-F_y
This proves the function F_ydx - F_xdy = 0 is exact on R
Could you help me prove the existence of G ? Thank you...I have F_{xx} + F_{yy} = 0
which is F_{xx}=-F_{yy}
Integrating both sides and cancel out the constants I obtain
F_x=-F_y
This proves the function F_ydx - F_xdy = 0 is exact on R
