Abstract
We show that the electromagnetic field in an isotropic (dielectric–magnetic) medium that is arbitrarily nonhomogeneous can be represented in terms of two vector potentials that are solutions of a system of two second-order partial differential equations. Furthermore, we derive conditions that permit the reduction of the two vector potentials to a pair of collinear single components and we establish a connection to an alternative solution formalism in terms of scalar Hertz potentials. The reduction involves both the vector potentials and their sources.
