Proof of Ampère's law from the Biot-Savart law for tridimensional current distributions
Let us assume the validity of the Biot-Savart law for a tridimensional distribution of current:$$\mathbf{B}(\mathbf{x})=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\int_V \mathbf{J}(\mathbf{y})\times\frac{\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{y}}...

What determine whether the dynamical equations are tensor equations or vector equations?
Newton's 2nd law which is central to Newtonian dynamics, is a vector equation
$\sum\textbf{F}_{external}=m\textbf{a}$
Same with Maxwell's equations in the covariant form.
On the other hand, ...
