Densities
This post introduces “densities”. There is a very nice book, available on arxiv, by Sean M. Carroll: “Lecture Notes on General Relativity“. There, on p. 52, Carroll writes “… we don’t like tensor densities, we like tensors.” Well, I do … Continue reading
Tensors are geometric objects
Originally, while writing the previous post, I was convinced that this one should be devoted to the Grassmann (or exterior) algebra. I even began drafting it and managed about half a page before realizing that, if the promise of a … Continue reading
