Let us consider your example which is a little bit intelligible , a triangle in an undisturbed flat piece of paper is an element of 2D space , and when it's seen from 3D view it's confined in a planar 2D space , but once you draw it on the surface of the Earth the curvature becomes evident not...

Would you give me a concrete example of an intrinsic curvature and show how it applies to space of certain dimensions using parallelism .

When you say a circle or an other defined shape it becomes something in space , since I am initially talking about general space defined with N Dimensions.

I am not a mathematician but trying to figure this out from an intuitive view point , I see extrinsic curvature is dealing with space itself , and intrinsic curvature dealing with structure of something inside space , but as I said it's just an intuition, so would you please explain this...

Hi everyone , this is my first time here :) My question is simple , if gravitation is basically a space distortion so it's fair to say that at least a fourth dimension exists , since a distortion must occur in higher dimension than the one of the concerned space . Is it correct putting it...
