Graduate Contraction in the Riemann Tensor
Hi all, I'm trying to follow through some of my notes of a GR course. The notes are working towards a specific expression and the following line appears: R^{\alpha \beta}_{\gamma \delta ; \mu} + R^{\alpha \beta}_{\delta \mu ; \gamma} + R^{\alpha \beta}_{\mu \gamma ; \delta}=0 Which by...- Fraser

Graduate Coarse Graining and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Hi all, first post so be nice :) I'm currently taking a statistical physics course and I am very confused about an aspect relating to the second law. Currently we are considering a member of an ensemble to be represented by a moving point in phase space (a 6N dimensional space spanned by...- Fraser
