Hello
i studied Sadri Hassani az mathematical physics book.
if i want to learn topology (( for general relativity )) what it the best book for introduction ?
Hello
what is the meaning of covaraint derivative ?
where the ordinary derivative of a function whit respect to a variable is zero, it means that function doesn't depend on that variable.but what about covaraint derivative ?
for example the metric tensor may depends on coordinate but its...
for example :

that it is different with the corresponding spherical component
if we use the covaraint unit vector the problem will be solved !
and both solution will have unique result
is it correct ?
Hello
i know how to derive the components of acceleration in other coordinates like spherical
start here :

and at last we have :

also , i know that acceleration is a contravariant...
Hello
any body can find my mistake ?!
TO find the component of a vector in other coordinate we can use the transformation matrix :

but why this does nt work for acceleration vector ?
i mean why i can't derive the component of...
