Signature (topology) — In mathematics, the signature of an oriented manifold M is defined when M has dimension d divisible by four. In that case, when M is connected and orientable, cup product gives rise to a quadratic form Q on the middle real cohomology group: H 2 n … Wikipedia
Signature (mathematics) — In mathematics, signature can refer to*The signature of a permutation is ±1 according to whether it is an even/odd permutation. The signature function defines a group homomorphism from the symmetric group to the group {±1}. *The signature of a… … Wikipedia
Signature operator — Let X be a 4k dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. The signature operator is a elliptic differential operator defined on a subspace of the space of differential forms on X , whose analytic index is the same as the topological signature of the … Wikipedia
Pseudo-Riemannian manifold — In differential geometry, a pseudo Riemannian manifold (also called a semi Riemannian manifold) is a generalization of a Riemannian manifold. It is one of many things named after Bernhard Riemann. The key difference between the two is that on a… … Wikipedia
4-manifold — In mathematics, 4 manifold is a 4 dimensional topological manifold. A smooth 4 manifold is a 4 manifold with a smooth structure. In dimension four, in marked contrast with lower dimensions, topological and smooth manifolds are quite different.… … Wikipedia
Intersection form (4-manifold) — In mathematics, the intersection form of an oriented compact 4 manifold is a special symmetric bilinear form on the 2nd cohomology group of the 4 manifold. It reflects much of the topology of the 4 manifolds, including information on the… … Wikipedia
Differentiable manifold — A nondifferentiable atlas of charts for the globe. The results of calculus may not be compatible between charts if the atlas is not differentiable. In the middle chart the Tropic of Cancer is a smooth curve, whereas in the first it has a sharp… … Wikipedia
Metric signature — The signature of a metric tensor (or more generally a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form, thought of as quadratic form) is the number of positive and negative eigenvalues of the metric. That is, the corresponding real symmetric matrix is… … Wikipedia
Einstein manifold — In differential geometry and mathematical physics, an Einstein manifold is a Riemannian or pseudo Riemannian manifold whose Ricci tensor is proportional to the metric. They are named after Albert Einstein because this condition is equivalent to… … Wikipedia
G2 manifold — A G 2 manifold is a seven dimensional Riemannian manifold with holonomy group G 2. The group G 2 is one of the five exceptional simple Lie groups. It can be described as the automorphism group of the octonions, or equivalently, as a proper… … Wikipedia
Gödel metric — The Gödel metric is an exact solution of the Einstein field equations in which the stress energy tensor contains two terms, the first representing the matter density of a homogeneous distribution of swirling dust particles, and the second… … Wikipedia
