| 1. | There are three basis elements, e, f, and h, with
|
| 2. | The tensor is the sum of its components multiplied by their basis elements.
|
| 3. | It is independent of basis elements, and requires no symbols for the indices.
|
| 4. | Let " T " be the bounded operator defined on basis elements by
|
| 5. | Let be the basis elements, then,
|
| 6. | The five basis elements of TL _ 3 ( \ delta ) are the following:
|
| 7. | Each basis element \ phi _ j can be connected to another, by the expression:
|
| 8. | The others can be obtained by permuting and changing the signs of the non-scalar basis elements.
|
| 9. | To define, choose a basis of, and let be the wedge product of these basis elements:
|
| 10. | A tensor may be expressed as a linear sum of the tensor product of vector and covector basis elements.
