Wedge product and cross product. 330 $a"This is a brief introduction to some geometrical topics including topological spaces, the metric tensor, Euclidean space, manifolds, tensors, r-forms, the orientation of a manifold and the Hodge star operator. It provides the reader who is approaching the subject for the first time with a deeper understanding of the geometrical properties of vectors and covectors. The material prepares the reader for discussions on basic concepts such as the differential of a function as a covector, metric dual, inner product, wedge product and cross product." 606 $aVector analysis 606 $aManifolds (Mathematics) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aVector analysis. 615 0$aManifolds (Mathematics) 676 $a515/.63 700 $aDomingos$b Joaquim M$0625765 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451151303321 996 $aGeometrical properties of vectors and convectors$91222043 997 $aUNINA
