Nomenclature

Jump to navigation Jump to search

In order not to lose focus on the overall view, mathematical definitions and spellings are knowingly kept as compact as possible.

Vectorial and tensorial quantities are written in bold. Where a component-wise notation becomes necessary, lower indices mean co- and upper indices contravariant components. There is no distinction between Latin and Greek indices.

All common conventions for short notations are used (especially sum convention).

For generally known and well-documented symmetry groups, functions, domains of definition and value, the redefinition is omitted and reference is made to the usual literature. If possible, links to existing articles in the net with the corresponding definition are included.

Singularities and special cases are treated only if they are of direct relevance to the problem considered and jeopardize the fundamental feasibility of the argumentation.
