In the notation of Watson (1966), theta=zd/(dz).

Two points on a surface which are opposite to each other but not farthest from each other (e.g., the midpoints of opposite edges of a cube) are said to be transitive points. ...

A zero tensor is a tensor of any rank and with any pattern of covariant and contravariant indices all of whose components are equal to 0 (Weinberg 1972, p. 38).

Let a particle travel a distance s(t) as a function of time t (here, s can be thought of as the arc length of the curve traced out by the particle). The speed (the scalar ...

Gauge theory studies principal bundle connections, called gauge fields, on a principal bundle. These connections correspond to fields, in physics, such as an electromagnetic ...

For omega a differential (k-1)-form with compact support on an oriented k-dimensional manifold with boundary M, int_Mdomega=int_(partialM)omega, (1) where domega is the ...

An affine tensor is a tensor that corresponds to certain allowable linear coordinate transformations, T:x^_^i=a^i_jx^j, where the determinant of a^i_j is nonzero. This ...

A bilinear form on a real vector space is a function b:V×V->R that satisfies the following axioms for any scalar alpha and any choice of vectors v,w,v_1,v_2,w_1, and w_2. 1. ...
