Reminder. Vectors and linear forms on modules¶

Recall that for free modules of finite rank (in notebook 6) we have introduced vectors and linear forms.

Example 9.1a

Define a free module of finite rank and some vector and linear form.

In [2]:

N=3                                     # dimension of the module
%display latex
M=FiniteRankFreeModule(SR,3,name='M')   # 3-dim module over SR
e = M.basis('e')                        # basis of M
v=var('v',n=3)                          # components of vector v
v=M(list(v))                            # define vector v

In [3]:

print(v)                                # information on v
v.comp()[:]                             # components of v

Element of the 3-dimensional vector space M over the Symbolic Ring

Out[3]:

$\displaystyle \left[v_{0}, v_{1}, v_{2}\right]$

General linear forms on a 3-dimensional module can be defined as follows:

In [4]:

a=M.linear_form()                       # linear form a on M
a[:]=var('a',n=4)                       # components of a

In [5]:

a.disp()                                # show a as combination
                                        # of dual basis

Out[5]:

$\displaystyle a_{0} e^{0} + a_{1} e^{1} + a_{2} e^{2}$

The linear form applied to a vector gives a scalar.

In [6]:

a(v)                                   # value a(v)

Out[6]:

$\displaystyle a_{0} v_{0} + a_{1} v_{1} + a_{2} v_{2}$

The value of a vector $v\in M$ on a linear form $a\in M^*$ is by definition equal to $a(v)$.

In [7]:

v(a)                                   # value v(a)

Out[7]:

$\displaystyle a_{0} v_{0} + a_{1} v_{1} + a_{2} v_{2}$

Now we are ready to define more general objects.

Tensors on modules¶

If $M$ is a vector space or a module, by a multilinear or more precisely $k$-linear form we mean a function $t: M^k\to R$ which is linear in each of its arguments, i.e., for $i=1,\ldots,k$

$$t(v_1\ldots,\alpha v_i+\beta w_i,\ldots v_k)= \alpha t(v_1\ldots,v_i,\ldots v_k)+\beta t(v_1\ldots,w_i,\ldots v_k),\quad \alpha,\beta\in R,\quad v_i,w_i\in M.$$

Assume that $M$ is a module.

Tensor module $T^{(k,l)}M$¶

Tensors of type (k,l) on $ M$ are multilinear maps:

$$ T^{(k,l)}M = \{t:\underbrace{M^*\times\cdots\times M^*}_{k\ \; \mbox{times}} \times \underbrace{M\times\cdots\times M}_{l\ \; \mbox{times}}\to R\},$$

where $\ M^*\ $ denotes the dual module, i.e. the module of linear forms on $M$ (cf. notebook 6).

Since $a\to v(a)$ defines a linear form $M^*\to R$, the elements $v\in M$ can be considered as elements of $T^{(1,0)}M$. On the other hand $T^{(0,1)}M$ as the space of linear forms on $M$ is equal to $M^*$. Thus, tensors generalize vectors and linear forms.

Example 9.2a

Let us show how to use tensor_module method of SageMath Manifolds.

In [8]:

# continuation
M.tensor_module(1,0)    # elements of T^(1,0) are vectors

Out[8]:

$\displaystyle M$

In [9]:

print(M.tensor_module(1,0))         # T^(1,0) = M
# since the ring SR is a field we obtain vector space

3-dimensional vector space M over the Symbolic Ring

In [10]:

M.tensor_module(0,1)               # T^(0,1) = M*

Out[10]:

$\displaystyle M^*$

In [11]:

print(M.tensor_module(0,1))

Free module of type-(0,1) tensors on the 3-dimensional vector space M over the Symbolic Ring

Module $T^{(0,k)}M$ - of covariant tensors of rank $k$¶

is the module of multilinear maps

$$ T^{(0,k)}M = \{t:\underbrace{M\times\cdots\times M}_{k\ \; \mbox{times}}\to R\}.$$

For k=1 we obtain the module of linear forms or covectors on $M$.

In $T^{(0,k)}M$ we introduce the algebraic operations by

$$ (at+bs)(v_1\ldots,v_k)=at(v_1\ldots,v_k)+bs(v_1\ldots,v_k),$$

where $t,s\in T^{(0,k)}M$, $v_1,\ldots,v_k\in M$ and $a,b\in R$.

For $t\in T^{(0,k)},\ s\in T^{(0,l)}M$ we define the tensor product $\ t\otimes s\in T^{(0,k+l)}M\ $ by

\begin{equation} (t ⊗ s )(v_1 ,\ldots , v_{k+l} ) = t (v_1 ,\ldots, v_k ) s (v_{k+1} , . . . , v_{k+l} ), \label{eq:tensor_product}\tag{9.1a} \end{equation}

for $v_1,\ldots,v_{k+l}\in M$.

In SageMath Manifolds the symbol of tensor product is simply $*$.

Example 9.3a

Let us check the last formula in the case of two general tensors from $T^{(0,2)}$ and 2-dimensional module.

In [12]:

N=2;                              # dimension of module
%display latex
Mo=FiniteRankFreeModule(SR,2,name='Mo')   # module Mo
e = Mo.basis('e')                 # basis of Mo
t=Mo.tensor((0,2))                # (0,2) type tensor t
s=Mo.tensor((0,2))                # (0,2) type tensor s

In [13]:

M=4                               # number of vectors 
vv=[[var('v'+str(i)+str(j),       # components of four vectors
    latex_name='v'+'^'+str(i)+'_'+str(j))
        for i in range(N)] for j in range(M)]
vv 

Out[13]:

$\displaystyle \left[\left[{v^0_0}, {v^1_0}\right], \left[{v^0_1}, {v^1_1}\right], \left[{v^0_2}, {v^1_2}\right], \left[{v^0_3}, {v^1_3}\right]\right]$

In [14]:

v=[Mo(vv[k]) for k in range(M)]   # list of vectors
tt=[[var('t'+str(i)+str(j))       # components of tensor t
    for j in range(M)] for i in range(N)]
ss=[[var('t'+str(i)+str(j))       # components of tensor s
    for j in range(M)] for i in range(N)]


t[:]=tt                 # define tensor t components t_{ij}
s[:]=ss                 # define tensor s components s_{ij}

In [15]:

# check the equality (9.1a) defining tensor product
bool((t*s)(v[0],v[1],v[2],v[3])==t(v[0],v[1])*s(v[2],v[3]))

Out[15]:

$\displaystyle \mathrm{True}$

Tensor product has the following properties (proofs for modules $T_pM,$ where $M$ denotes a manifold are given in the next notebook)

\begin{equation} \begin{matrix} (ar + bs ) ⊗ t = ar ⊗ t + bs ⊗ t ,\\ r ⊗ (as + bt ) = ar ⊗ s + br ⊗ t ,\\ (r ⊗ s ) ⊗ t = r ⊗ (s ⊗ t ), \end{matrix} \label{eq:tensor_product_prop}\tag{9.2a} \end{equation}

for $a,b\in R\ $ and for arbitrary covariant tensors $r,s,t$ (the addition is defined only for tensors of the same rank $(0,k)$).

Covariant tensors in components¶

One can check that if $e_1,\ldots,e_n$ is a basis of the module $M$ and $e^1,\ldots,e^n\ $ its dual basis (defined in notebook 6), then the elements

\begin{equation} e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots \otimes e^{j_m}, \quad j_q\in\{1,\ldots,n\} \tag{9.2a} \end{equation}

form a basis for $T^{(0,m)}M$ and if we put

$$t_{j_1\ldots j_m} =t(e_{j_1},\ldots,e_{j_m}), $$

then

\begin{equation} t=t_{j_1\ldots j_m} e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e^{j_m}, \quad \text{for }\ t\in T^{(0,m)}M. \tag{9.3a} \end{equation}

In fact, since $\ v_1=e^{j_1}(v_1)e_{j_1},\ldots, v_m=e^{j_m}(v_m)e_{j_m},\ $ then

$$t(v_1,\ldots,v_m)=t(e^{j_1}(v_1)e_{j_1},\ldots,e^{j_m}(v_m)e_{j_m})\\ =e^{j_1}(v_1)\ldots e^{j_m}(v_m)t(e_{j_1},\ldots,e_{j_m})\\ =t_{j_1\ldots j_m}e^{j_1}\otimes \ldots \otimes e^{j_m}(v_1,\ldots v_m). $$

Example 9.4a

Let us show the representation of a tensor $\ t\in T^{(0,3)}M\ $ in components.

In [16]:

In [17]:

Out[18]:

$\displaystyle t = t_{000} e^{0}\otimes e^{0}\otimes e^{0} + t_{001} e^{0}\otimes e^{0}\otimes e^{1} + t_{010} e^{0}\otimes e^{1}\otimes e^{0} + t_{011} e^{0}\otimes e^{1}\otimes e^{1} + t_{100} e^{1}\otimes e^{0}\otimes e^{0} + t_{101} e^{1}\otimes e^{0}\otimes e^{1} + t_{110} e^{1}\otimes e^{1}\otimes e^{0} + t_{111} e^{1}\otimes e^{1}\otimes e^{1}$

Module $T^{(k,0)}M $ of contravariant tensors of rank $k$¶

is the module of $k$-linear forms:

$$ T^{(k,0)}M = \{t:\underbrace{M^*\times\cdots\times M^*}_{k\ \;\mbox{times}} \to R\}.$$

In $T^{(k,0)}M$ we introduce the module structure by

$$ (at+bs)(\alpha_1\ldots,\alpha_k)=at(\alpha_1\ldots,\alpha_k)+bs(\alpha_1\ldots,\alpha_k),$$

where $t,s\in T^{(k,0)}M$, $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_k\in M^*$ and $a,b\in R$.

For $t,s\in T^{(k,0)}M$ we define the tensor product $t\otimes s\ $ by

\begin{equation} (t ⊗ s )(\alpha_1 ,\ldots , \alpha_{k+l} ) ≡ t (\alpha_1 ,\ldots, \alpha_k ) s(\alpha_{k+1} , \ldots , \alpha_{k+l} ), \tag{9.4a} \end{equation}

for $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_{k+l}\in M^*$.

Contravariant tensors in components¶

One can check that if $e_1,\ldots,e_n$ is a basis of the module $M$ and $e^1,\ldots,e^n$ its dual basis then the elements

$$e_{i_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e_{i_k}, \quad i_p\in\{1,\ldots,n\} $$

form a basis for $T^{(k,0)}M$ and if we put

$$t^{i_1\ldots i_k} =t(e^{i_1},\ldots,e^{i_k}), $$

then

\begin{equation} t=t^{i_1\ldots i_k} e_{i_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e_{i_k}, \quad \text{for }\ t\in T^{(k,0)}M. \tag{9.5a} \end{equation}

This follows from $\alpha(v)=\alpha(e^i(v)e_ i)=\alpha(e_i)e^i(v),\ $ and $\ v(\alpha)=\alpha(v)$ for linear form $\ \alpha\in M^*\ $ and $\ v\in M,\ $since we have

$$t(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_k)= t(\alpha_1(e_{i_1})e^{i_1},\ldots,\alpha_k(e_{i_k})e^{i_k})\\ =\alpha_1(e_{i_1})\ldots \alpha_k(e_{i_k})t(e^{i_1},\ldots,e^{i_k})\\ =e_{i_1}(\alpha_1)\ldots e_{i_k}(\alpha_k)t(e^{i_1},\ldots, e^{i_k})\\ =t^{i_1\ldots i_k} e_{i_1}\otimes \ldots \otimes e_{i_k}(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_k). $$

Example 9.5a

Let us show the representation of a tensor of type (3,0) in components.

General tensors from $T^{(k,l)}M$ in components¶

For $t\in T^{(k_1,l_1)}M,\ \ s\in T^{(k_2,l_2)}M$ we define the tensor product $t\otimes s\in T^{(k_1+k_2,l_1+l_2)}$ by

\begin{equation} (t ⊗ s )(\alpha_1,\ldots\alpha_{k_1+k_2},v_1 ,\ldots , v_{l_1+l_2} )\\ =t(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_{k_1},v_1 ,\ldots, v_{l_1} ) s (\alpha_{k_1+1},\ldots,\alpha_{k_1+k_2},v_{l_1+1},\ldots, v_{l_1+l_2} ), \tag{9.6a} \end{equation}

for $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_{k_1+k_2}\in M^*$ and $v_1,\ldots,v_{l_1+l_2}\in M$.

Generalizing the formulas (9.3a) and (9.5a) we obtain the following expression for the general tensor $t\in T^{(k,l)}M$ in components

\begin{equation} t= t\big(e^{i_1},..,e^{i_k},e_{j_1},..,e_{j_l}) e_{i_1}\otimes\dots\otimes e_{i_k}\otimes e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e^{j_l}. \label{}\tag{9.7a} \end{equation}

Very often the notation $$t^{i_1\ldots i_k}_{j_1\ldots j_l}=t_p\big(e^{i_1},..,e^{i_k},e_{j_1},..,e_{j_l}) $$ is used and then $$t=t^{i_1\ldots i_k}_{j_1\ldots j_l}e_{i_1}\otimes\dots\otimes e_{i_k}\otimes e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e^{j_l}. $$

To check that the elements \begin{equation} e_{i_1}\otimes\dots\otimes e_{i_k}\otimes e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e^{j_l} \label{} \tag{9.8a} \end{equation}

are linearly independent, assume that the linear combination

$$a^{i_1\ldots i_k}_{j_1\ldots j_l}e_{i_1}\otimes\dots\otimes e_{i_k}\otimes e^{j_1}\otimes\ldots\otimes e^{j_l} $$

vanishes. If we apply this combination to $\quad(e^{m_1},\ldots,e^{m_k}, e_{n_1},..,e_{n_l}\big)$ we get $\displaystyle a^{m_1\ldots m_k}_{n_1\ldots n_l}=0$.
Since as in previous cases we can check that elements of the type (9.8a) span $T^{(k,l)}M$, we have proved that these elements form a basis for $T^{(k,l)}M$.

Example 9.6a

Now we show the representation of a tensor of (2,2) type in components.

Here is a version with concrete components:

In [31]:

ct=range(1,17)            # [1,..,16]-consecutive components
for i0 in range(N):               
    for i1 in range(N):
        for i2 in range(N):
            for i3 in range(N):
                t[i0,i1,i2,i3]=ct[i0*N*N*N+i1*N*N+i2*N+i3]

Check that the coefficient $t^{10}_{01}$ is equal to $t(e^1,e^0,e_0,e_1)$:

In [34]:

t(d[1],d[0],e[0],e[1])                # t(e^1,e^0,e_0,e_1)

Out[34]:

$\displaystyle 10$
