How can I calculate the curl of a 2D field like $textbfF= F_x(x,y)textbfi + F_y(x,y)textbfj$ if the curl is defined is 3D? My book says to apply the definition of curl to the associated 3D field $textbfF = F_x(x,y)textbfi + F_2(x,y)textbfj +0textbfk$, but I don't get the expected result which is $textrot textbfF= (partial_x F_y - partial_y F_x)textbfk$
$left(frac partial F_zpartial y-frac partial F_ypartial zright)mathbf i +left(frac partial F_xpartial z-frac partial F_zpartial xright)mathbf j +left(frac partial F_ypartial x-frac partial F_xpartial yright)mathbf k =beginbmatrixfrac partial F_zpartial y-frac partial F_ypartial z\frac partial F_xpartial z-frac partial F_zpartial x\frac partial F_ypartial x-frac partial F_xpartial yendbmatrix$
since $F_z=0$ the result should be
$textrot mathbfF =left(-frac partial F_ypartial zright)mathbf i +left(frac partial F_xpartial zright)mathbf j +left(frac partial F_ypartial x-frac partial F_xpartial yright)mathbf k $

As I said in my answer, your last equation is correct, you just have to consider that, since $vecF$ does not depend on $z$, you have $fracpartial F_xpartial z=0$ and $fracpartial F_ypartial z=0$. Considering this, we get $textrot(vecF)=left(fracpartial F_ypartial x-fracpartial F_xpartial yright)textbfk$

The formula you state gives you the correct derivation of $textrottextbfF$, considering that $fracpartial textbfFpartial z=vec0$ and $nabla F_z=nabla 0=vec0$.
In your last equation, you have to consider that $fracpartial F_xpartial z=fracpartial F_ypartial z=0$, since $textbfF$ does not depend on $z$

The formula you state gives you the correct derivation of $textrottextbfF$, considering that $fracpartial textbfFpartial z=vec0$ and $nabla F_z=nabla 0=vec0$.
In your last equation, you have to consider that $fracpartial F_xpartial z=fracpartial F_ypartial z=0$, since $textbfF$ does not depend on $z$
