单词 Riemannian manifold
释义
Riemannian manifold

Mathematics
  • A manifold with a metric structure, that is, a first fundamental form, is associated with each set of local coordinates. This means intrinsic properties such as length, angle, area, and Gaussian curvature may be defined. In two dimensions, the first fundamental form is commonly written as

    ds2=Edu2+2Fdudv+Gdv2

    in terms of local coordinates u and v. The length L of a curve (u(t),v(t)) and the area A of a region R are then defined as

    L=E(dudt)2+2Fdudtdvdt+G(dvdt)2dt,A=REGF2du dv.

    If the manifold uses more than one set of coordinates, then transition maps are necessarily isometries so that the metric structure is consistent across the manifold.
