### Vector Field Analysis Problem

#### Problem Statement:

A vector field \( \mathbf{F} : \mathbb{R}^3 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3 \) is defined by \(\mathbf{F}(x,y,z) = (x - y, x + y, xy - 2z)\). Compute the following:

(a) **Divergence** of \(\mathbf{F}\):
\[
\text{div}(\mathbf{F}) = \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} = \boxed{}
\]

(b) **Curl** of \(\mathbf{F}\):
\[
\text{curl}(\mathbf{F}) = \nabla \times \mathbf{F} = \boxed{}
\]
