Show that the second equation in Eq. 12.127 can be expressed in terms of the field tensor ${\mathbf{F}}^{\mathbf{\mu \nu }}$as follows:

localid="1654746948628" $\frac{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathbf{\mu \nu }}}{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{\lambda }}}\mathbf{+}\frac{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathbf{\nu \lambda }}}{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{\mu }}}\mathbf{+}\frac{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathbf{\lambda \mu }}}{\mathbf{\partial }{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{\nu }}}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{0}$

Write the expression for Maxwell’s equation.

$\frac{\partial G^{\mu \nu }}{\partial x^{\nu }}=0$
