Hello :smile:

I scratch my head on trying to express \partial_{x}[\det(\textbf{1}-\textbf{M})] , where \textbf{M} is a square matrix whose elements depend on x, as an expression involving \textbf{M} and/or \partial_{x}\textbf{M}.
For instance, I have painfully noticed that it is not equal to \det(\textbf{1}-\partial_{x}\textbf{M}) :biggrin:

Any help would be much apprciated :smile: TIA

This is the theorem I'm looking for exactly :)
 
Thread 'Derivation of equations of stress tensor transformation'
Hello ! I derived equations of stress tensor 2D transformation. Some details: I have plane ABCD in two cases (see top on the pic) and I know tensor components for case 1 only. Only plane ABCD rotate in two cases (top of the picture) but not coordinate system. Coordinate system rotates only on the bottom of picture. I want to obtain expression that connects tensor for case 1 and tensor for case 2. My attempt: Are these equations correct? Is there more easier expression for stress tensor...
