In physics and mathematics, the Helmholtz decomposition theorem or the fundamental theorem of vector calculus[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] states that any sufficiently smooth, rapidly decaying vector field in three dimensions can be resolved into the sum of an irrotational (curl-free) vector field and a solenoidal (divergence-free) vector field. It is named after Hermann von Helmholtz.
