One interpretation of a function w=f(z)=u(x, y) i v(x, y) is that of a vector field in the domain of definition of f. The function assigns a vector w, with components u(x, y) and v(x, y), to each point z at which it is defined. Indicate graphically the vector fields represented by (a) w=i z ; (b) w=z /|z|. | Numerade

Let K be a Killing vector field. Show that an electromagnetic field with potential Aj=Kμ solves Maxwell's equations if the metric is a vacuum solution to Einstein's equations. This is a slight cheat, since you won't be in vacuum if there is a nonzero electromagnetic field strength, but we assume the field strength is small enough not to dramatically affect the geometry. | Numerade
