The use of LaTeX in a piped link or in a section heading does not appear in blue in the linked text or the table of content. Moreover, links to section headings containing LaTeX formulas do not always work as expected. Finally, having many LaTeX formulas may significantly increase the processing time of a page.
In Riemannian geometry and pseudo-Riemannian geometry, the Gauss–Codazzi equations (also called the Gauss–Codazzi–Weingarten-Mainardi equations or Gauss–Peterson–Codazzi formulas [1]) are fundamental formulas that link together the induced metric and second fundamental form of a submanifold of (or immersion into) a Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold.
The constant of proportionality, G, in this non-relativistic formulation is the gravitational constant. Colloquially, the gravitational constant is also called "Big G", distinct from "small g" (g), which is the local gravitational field of Earth (also referred to as free-fall acceleration).
Given a finite-dimensional vector space over a field with a symmetric bilinear form (the inner product, [b] e.g., the Euclidean or Lorentzian metric) : , the geometric algebra of the quadratic space (,) is the Clifford algebra (,) , an element of which is called a multivector.
where F is the gravitational force acting between two objects, m 1 and m 2 are the masses of the objects, r is the distance between the centers of their masses, and G is the gravitational constant. The first test of Newton's law of gravitation between masses in the laboratory was the Cavendish experiment conducted by the British scientist Henry ...
In mathematics, bilinear interpolation is a method for interpolating functions of two variables (e.g., x and y) using repeated linear interpolation. It is usually applied to functions sampled on a 2D rectilinear grid , though it can be generalized to functions defined on the vertices of (a mesh of) arbitrary convex quadrilaterals .
The Laplace operator is a second-order differential operator in the n-dimensional Euclidean space, defined as the divergence of the gradient (). Thus if f {\displaystyle f} is a twice-differentiable real-valued function , then the Laplacian of f {\displaystyle f} is the real-valued function defined by:
In geometry, a cross-polytope, [1] hyperoctahedron, orthoplex, [2] staurotope, [3] or cocube is a regular, convex polytope that exists in n-dimensional Euclidean space.A 2-dimensional cross-polytope is a square, a 3-dimensional cross-polytope is a regular octahedron, and a 4-dimensional cross-polytope is a 16-cell.
