On analyticity in homogeneous first order partial differential equations
Linear Force-free (or Beltrami) fields are three-components divergence-free fields solutions of the equation curlB = αB, where α is a real number. Such fields appear in many branches of physics like astrophysics, fluid mechanics, electromagnetics and plasma physics. In this paper, we deal with some related boundary value problems in multiply-connected bounded domains, in half-cylindrical domains and in exterior domains.
We show that the equation div has, in general, no Lipschitz (respectively ) solution if is (respectively ).
