Dear fellow physicists,
looking at the derivation for the maxwell equations into k-space, I've stumbled upon something that seems not so logical to me. It is concerning the two parts where they transform [itex]\nabla \times E [/itex] and [itex]\nabla \bullet E [/itex] on page 27 (on the sheets 14).

After integrating by parts they just state that the first term goes to zero. But for negative infinity it appears more to me that this term is actually blowing up. Is there something that I am missing and someone could me to?
Thank you very much in advance,
