In linear algebra, the outer product of two coordinate vectors is the matrix whose entries are all products of an element in the first vector with an element in the second vector. If the two coordinate vectors have dimensions n and m , then their outer product is an n × m matrix.
The cross product u × v can be interpreted as a vector which is perpendicular to both u and v and whose magnitude is equal to the area of the parallelogram determined by the two vectors. It can also be interpreted as the vector consisting of the minors of the matrix with columns u and v. The triple product of u, v, and w is geometrically a ...
The exterior product of differential forms (denoted with the same symbol ∧) is defined as their pointwise exterior product. There are a variety of equivalent definitions of the exterior derivative of a general k-form.
The dot product takes in two vectors and returns a scalar, while the cross product [a] returns a pseudovector. Both of these have various significant geometric interpretations and are widely used in mathematics, physics, and engineering. The dyadic product takes in two vectors and returns a second order tensor called a dyadic in this context. A ...
Differential forms can be multiplied together using the exterior product, and for any differential k-form α, there is a differential (k + 1)-form dα called the exterior derivative of α. Differential forms, the exterior product and the exterior derivative are independent of a choice of coordinates.
The Department of Labor is proposing to phase out a controversial Depression-era program that lets some employers pay disabled workers less than the federal minimum wage. Federal law currently ...
The tensor product of two vector spaces is a vector space that is defined up to an isomorphism.There are several equivalent ways to define it. Most consist of defining explicitly a vector space that is called a tensor product, and, generally, the equivalence proof results almost immediately from the basic properties of the vector spaces that are so defined.
Jaydon Blue ended Clemson’s hopes of a comeback on Saturday. The Texas running back sprinted for a 77-yard touchdown with 10:48 to go to give Texas a two-TD lead in the No. 5 Longhorns’ 38-24 ...
