In mathematics, especially the usage of linear algebra in mathematical physics and differential geometry, Einstein notation (also known as the Einstein summation convention or Einstein summation notation) is a notational convention that implies summation over a set of indexed terms in a formula, thus achieving brevity.
Einstein notation is used throughout this article. This article uses the "analyst's" sign convention for Laplacians, except when noted otherwise. This article uses the "analyst's" sign convention for Laplacians, except when noted otherwise.

Einstein notation This notation is based on the understanding that whenever a multidimensional array contains a repeated index letter, the default interpretation is that the product is summed over all permitted values of the index. For example, if a ij is a matrix, then under this convention a ii is its trace. The Einstein convention is widely ...

The Casimir invariants of the Poincaré group are = , (Einstein notation) where P is the 4-momentum operator, and = , where W is the Pauli–Lubanski pseudovector. The eigenvalues of these operators serve to label the representations.
