Abstract:
The problem is solved on the selection of a particular vector field from the class
$\mathfrak L_\mathrm{ph}(D)$ of all vector fields smooth in some domain
$D\subset R^3$. The class
$\mathfrak L_\mathrm{ph}(D)$ consists of fields that are solenoidal in
$D$ and such that the lines of each field form a family of smooth curves lying in planes parallel to some fixed plane
$R^2\subset R^3$ and coincide everywhere in
$D$ with the vortex lines of the field. Additional conditions are formulated in the form of boundary conditions for the selected field on certain specially chosen lines belonging to the boundary
$\partial D$ under some not very restricting conditions on the domain
$D$ and on its projection
$D^2$ to the plane
$R^2$. As a result, the selection of a particular field from the class
$\mathfrak L_\mathrm{ph}(D)$ is reduced to solving a boundary value problem, a part of which is the problem on finding a pair of functions that are harmonically conjugate in
$D^2$ and continuous in the closure
$\overline{D^2}$ and take given continuous values on the boundary of the domain
$D^2$. An algorithm for solving the boundary value problem is proposed. The solution of the boundary value problem is considered in detail for the case of the domain
$D$ whose projection to the plane
$R^2$ is an open unit disk
$K$. We use an approach based on representing the components of the field as expansions on a system of harmonic wavelets converging uniformly in the closure
$\overline K$. The vector field found for such a domain can then be extended to any domain
$D$ whose projection
$D^2$ is a conformal image of a unit disk.
