Definition:	convention for fixing electromagnetic four-potential by means of $Div \underline{\underline{A}} = 0$ , where $\underline{\underline{A}}$ is electromagnetic four-potential Note 1 to entry: As a result of the Lorenz convention, in three dimensions: $\frac{\partial V}{\partial t} = - c_{0}^{2} div \vec{A}$ , where $V$ is electric potential, $\vec{A}$ is magnetic vector potential, and $c_{0}$ is speed of light in vacuum. Note 2 to entry: Lorenz convention stems from the work of Danish physicist Ludvig V. Lorenz whereas Lorentz transformation stems from the work of Dutch physicist Hendrik A. Lorentz.
