I am having trouble understanding how to tell if a matrix is a tensor, a pseudo tensor or neither or the above.
Given this matrix
[tex]\begin{vmatrix}2x^-2y^2 & 4xy\\ 4xy & -2x^2+2y^2\end{vmatrix}[/tex]
I thought of trying just inverting the components and checking the sign, but I don't think that this will tell me if it is actually a tensor.
