The paradox of a man who states "I am lying." If he is lying, then he is telling the truth, and vice versa. Another version of this paradox is the Epimenides paradox. Such ...

D^*Dpsi=del ^*del psi+1/4Rpsi, where D is the Dirac operator D:Gamma(S^+)->Gamma(S^-), del is the covariant derivative on spinors, and R is the scalar curvature.

Second and higher derivatives of the metric tensor g_(ab) need not be continuous across a surface of discontinuity, but g_(ab) and g_(ab,c) must be continuous across it.

D^*Dpsi=del ^*del psi+1/4Rpsi-1/2F_L^+(psi), where D is the Dirac operator D:Gamma(W^+)->Gamma(W^-), del is the covariant derivative on spinors, R is the scalar curvature, ...

A minimal surface that contains lemniscates as geodesics which is given by the parametric equations x = R[sqrt(2)cos(1/3zeta)sqrt(cos(2/3zeta))] (1) y = ...

A Lie group is a group with the structure of a manifold. Therefore, discrete groups do not count. However, the most useful Lie groups are defined as subgroups of some matrix ...

A nonassociative algebra obeyed by objects such as the Lie bracket and Poisson bracket. Elements f, g, and h of a Lie algebra satisfy [f,f]=0 (1) [f+g,h]=[f,h]+[g,h], (2) and ...

The commutator series of a Lie algebra g, sometimes called the derived series, is the sequence of subalgebras recursively defined by g^(k+1)=[g^k,g^k], (1) with g^0=g. The ...

The lower central series of a Lie algebra g is the sequence of subalgebras recursively defined by g_(k+1)=[g,g_k], (1) with g_0=g. The sequence of subspaces is always ...

A representation of a Lie algebra g is a linear transformation psi:g->M(V), where M(V) is the set of all linear transformations of a vector space V. In particular, if V=R^n, ...
