4.12 Orthogonal Sets of Vectors and the Gram-Schmidt Process

In the analysis of geometric vectors in elementary calculus courses, it is usual to use the standard basis {i,j,k}. Notice that this set of vectors is in fact an orthonormal set. The introduction of an inner product in a vector space opens up the possibility of using similarbasesinageneralfinite-dimensionalvectorspace.Thenextdefinitionintroduces

the above picture) can be interpreted in a purely geometric way, by introducing a new kind of metric on R4, the so-called Minkowski metric. 6. ... In other words, all null vectors at p span a double cone, known as the double null cone. We denote by S p, S p = X2T pR3+1: g(X;X) >0; 7. the set of spacelike vectors at p, by I p, I p = X2T

Except that this gives a particularly simple geometric object, there is nothing special about the individual functions of t that make up the coordinates of this vector—any vector with a parameter, like hf(t),g(t),h(t)i, will describe some curve in three dimensions as t …

Vector Calculus

16 Vector Calculus 16.1 Vector Fields This chapter is concerned with applying calculus in the context of vector fields. A two-dimensional vector field is a function f that maps each point (x,y) in R2 to a two- dimensional vector hu,vi, and similarly a …
