The introduction of magnetic vector potential
By loading Del’s nature: ∇ ⋅ ( ∇ × F ⃗ ) = 0 \nabla\cdot(\nabla\times\vec F)=0 ∇⋅(∇×F)=0 , and we have known equation(3)
Thus, it’s natural to assume B ⃗ = ∇ × A ⃗ \vec B=\nabla\times \vec A B=∇×A , while A ⃗ \vec A A was named magnetic vector potential
However, it’s crucial to define
