 Solution

Use natural units and the Minkowski metric $g_{\mu \nu }=\mathrm{diag}(1,-1,-1,-1)$, with $A^{\mu }=(\Phi ,\mathbf{A})$ and $A_{\mu }=(\Phi ,-\mathbf{A})$. Then $F_{0i}=E_i$, $F^{i0}=E_i$, and $F^{ij}=-{ϵ}_{ijk}{B}_k$. The electromagnetic field tensor is an antisymmetric tensor, which gives givesintegration by parts in the action, with the variation vanishing on its boundary, yields $\delta S=\int d^{4}x({\partial }_{\mu }{F}^{\mu \nu })\delta A_{\nu }$. Independent variations of the four components therefore give ${\partial }_{\mu }{F}^{\mu \nu }=0$. The time component is $\nabla \cdot \mathbf{E}=0$; the spatial components are $\nabla \times \mathbf{B}-{\partial }_t\mathbf{E}=0$. These are the two source-free Maxwell equations obtained dynamically. The other two, $\nabla \cdot \mathbf{B}=0$ and ${\partial }_t\mathbf{B}+\nabla \times \mathbf{E}=0$, follow identically from $F=dA$, through the Electromagnetic Bianchi identity. They are not additional Euler-Lagrange field equations.^[ref]
