Invariance, Vectors and Tensors in Natural Space

  • Chapter
Matrix Algebra for Physicists

Abstract

It is assumed that readers are familiar with the elementary vector methods which are usually included in courses of physics. In the present chapter it is intended to establish connections between the elementary properties of vectors with principles of invariance. Repetition of some elementary matters cannot be avoided but the present chapter is intended to be a supplement to the elementary approach rather than a substitute.
