Hello
I have a question if it possible,
Let X a tangantial vector field of a riemannian manifolds M, and f a smooth function define on M.
Is it true that X(exp-f)=-exp(-f).X(f)
And div( exp(-f).X)=exp(-f)〈gradf, X〉+exp(-f)div(X)?
Thank you
Hi,
I am a PhD student, I work on transversal submanifolds. I want to know if someone has an example of application of transversality in physics or ingenning or in any other area, I hear that there is an application in construction of plans but I didn't find it.
Thank you in advance.
Hi every body
I study transversal submanifolds,I have an example but I didn't find some quatities.
In Rn+p we consider the submanifold N=Rn+1, we know that P is tottaly geodesic and another manifolds M which is the sphere of dimension n+1 of radius r and centrer p0. then the transversal...
Hi everybody
I seen in a book a quote of H. E. Winkelnkemper "Transversality unlocks the secrets of the manifold.".
Can someone explain to me this citation and why transversality has all this importance in geometry?
thank you in advance.
