  2. Bivector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bivector

    Parallel plane segments with the same orientation and area corresponding to the same bivector a ∧ b. [1] In mathematics, a bivector or 2-vector is a quantity in exterior algebra or geometric algebra that extends the idea of scalars and vectors. Considering a scalar as a degree-zero quantity and a vector as a degree-one quantity, a bivector is ...

  3. Two-vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-vector

    A two-vector or bivector [1] is a tensor of type () and it is the dual of a two-form, meaning that it is a linear functional which maps two-forms to the real numbers (or more generally, to scalars). The tensor product of a pair of vectors is a two-vector. Then, any two-form can be expressed as a linear combination of tensor products of pairs of ...

  4. Multivector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivector

    A bivector is an element of the antisymmetric tensor product of a tangent space with itself. In geometric algebra , also, a bivector is a grade 2 element (a 2-vector) resulting from the wedge product of two vectors, and so it is geometrically an oriented area , in the same way a vector is an oriented line segment.

  5. Blade (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_(geometry)

    In the study of geometric algebras, a k-blade or a simple k-vector is a generalization of the concept of scalars and vectors to include simple bivectors, trivectors, etc.. Specifically, a k-blade is a k-vector that can be expressed as the exterior product (informally wedge product) of 1-vectors, and is of

  6. Geometric algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_algebra

    Boosts in this Lorentzian metric space have the same expression as rotation in Euclidean space, where is the bivector generated by the time and the space directions involved, whereas in the Euclidean case it is the bivector generated by the two space directions, strengthening the "analogy" to almost identity.

  7. Manning Passing Academy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manning_Passing_Academy

    The Manning Passing Academy is a four-day American football clinic held annually at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, Louisiana. [1] Held in the summer, it is hosted by the Manning family (Archie, Cooper, Peyton, Eli) and several current and former National Football League (NFL) and college football players and coaches.

  8. Comparison of vector algebra and geometric algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_vector...

    Since the vector term of the vector bivector product the name dot product is zero when the vector is perpendicular to the plane (bivector), and this vector, bivector "dot product" selects only the components that are in the plane, so in analogy to the vector-vector dot product this name itself is justified by more than the fact this is the non ...

  9. INF Clairefontaine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INF_Clairefontaine

    Clairefontaine is an immense football centre, encompassing 56 hectares of land and containing 66,000 square metres of turfed grounds. It is located in the valley of Chevreuse in the heart of the Rambouillet forest. Clairefontaine has several training grounds, a stadium pitch and even an indoor pitch made of artificial turf. The centre also ...
