I would like to integrate by parts this term-
[tex]\mu^2 (\nabla^2)^{-1} (\nabla\times B)\dot{B}[/tex]

Here [itex]B[/itex] is a vector and [itex]\dot{B}[/itex] is the time derivative of B. And [itex]\mu[/itex] is just a constant.

Can anyone help me?

Wow, where did you encounter this, i can't see tex where I am sitting, but it looks like you have the inverse laplacian?
 
AND you have a vector adjacent to a vector? What class is this for? This is either over my head (and/or) you took a bad turn somewhere in calculations leading up to this.

Yes. there is a inverse laplacian.

It's a problem of M.Sc. And I am stuck with this term :frown:
