The inner product of two vectors in space-time is:
(x1,y1,z1,t1)⋅(x2,y2,z2,t2)=x1x2+y1y2+z1z2−t1t2
So
(∂∂x,∂∂y,∂∂z,1c∂∂t)⋅(A1,A2,A3,ϕ)=div(→A)−1c∂ϕ∂t
is Lorentz invariant, where →A=(A1,A2,A3). But the [Lorenz gauge condition] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_gauge_condition) is defined by div(→A)+1/c ∂tϕ=0. Why has the minus changed into plus? So there is apparently no longer invariance.
