The head of a vector AB^-> is the endpoint B, i.e., the point at which the arrow is placed.

An (m+1)-dimensional subspace W of an (n+1)-dimensional vector space V can be specified by an (m+1)×(n+1) matrix whose rows are the coordinates of a basis of W. The set of ...

When discussing a rotation, there are two possible conventions: rotation of the axes, and rotation of the object relative to fixed axes. In R^2, consider the matrix that ...

Let E be a linear space over a field K. Then the vector space tensor product tensor _(lambda=1)^(k)E is called a tensor space of degree k. More specifically, a tensor space ...

A flow line for a map on a vector field F is a path sigma(t) such that sigma^'(t)=F(sigma(t)).

The jerk j is defined as the time derivative of the vector acceleration a, j=(da)/(dt).

A vector field is a section of its tangent bundle, meaning that to every point x in a manifold M, a vector X(x) in T_xM is associated, where T_x is the tangent space.

A Hermitian form on a vector space V over the complex field C is a function f:V×V->C such that for all u,v,w in V and all a,b in R, 1. f(au+bv,w)=af(u,w)+bf(v,w). 2. ...

A complex line bundle is a vector bundle pi:E->M whose fibers pi^(-1)(m) are a copy of C. pi is a holomorphic line bundle if it is a holomorphic map between complex manifolds ...

A real-linear vector space H equipped with a symplectic form s.
