The first edition appeared in 1923 and at that time it was up to date. But in 193 5 and 1938 the author and Prof. D. J. STRUIK published a new book, their Einführung I and li, and this book not only gave the first systematic introduction to the kernel index method but also contained many notions that had come into prominence since 1923. For instance densities, quantities of the second kind, pseudo-quantities, normal Coordinates, the symbolism of exterior forms, the LIE derivative, the theory of variation and deformation and the theory of subprojective connexions were included. Now since 1938 there have been many new developments and so a book on RICCI cal culus and its applications has to cover quite different ground from the book of 1923. Though the purpose remains to make the reader acquainted with RICCI‘s famous instrument in its modern form, the book must have quite a different methodical structure and quite different applica tions have to be chosen. The first chapter contains algebraical preliminaries but the whole text is modernized and there is a section on hybrid quantities (quantities with indices of the first and of the second kind) and on | 出版日期 | Book 1954 | 关键词 | Derivative; Lie; algebra; calculus; curvature; differential equation | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-12927-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-05692-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-12927-2Series ISSN 0072-7830 Series E-ISSN 2196-9701 | issn_series | 0072-7830 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1954 |
