Today I published the notebook Vector and Tensor Algebra and the accompanying package tensalg.m on my homepage http://www-irm.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~sulanke/. In difference to the tensors (being Arrays) considered in connection with the built-in Tensor functions in Mathematica I created a tensor object admitting to treat covariant and contravariant tensors as well as tensors of mixed type. Here you can see the contents of the notebook:
http://www-irm.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~sulanke/Notebooks/vectensalg.pdf. The notebook is written in a style intended to help beginners to work with Mathematica and at the same time to study tensor algebra. For hints and comments to the material, which covered the affin tensor algebra and the exterior algebra over a finite-dimensional vector space, I shall be very thankful.
This forum is moving.
We appreciate your contribution to one of our largest educational forums. Thanks to your participation, we have expanded our vision to create the new Wolfram Community, which will bring together members of our entire global family. With the launch of the new Wolfram Community, the Wolfram Faculty Program Forum will be retired on August 6, 2013.
We encourage all members of the Wolfram Faculty Program Forum to join Wolfram Community. Sign in with your Wolfram ID at http://community.wolfram.com to get started.
Wolfram Community features discussion groups for all Wolfram products as well as topic-based groups like education, chemistry, and geometry.
And don't worry: all discussions on the Faculty Forum will be preserved for reference. We're simply switching this site over to read-only mode as we work to bring the entire Wolfram Community together for learning, sharing, and collaborating.
Have questions about the transition or need more information? Email us at wolfram-community@wolfram.com or join Wolfram Community to start a new discussion.
