3 Vector Fields and One-Form Fields
We want a way to think about how a function varies on a manifold.
3.1 Vector Fields
(define v
(components->vector-field
(up (literal-function 'b0 R2->R)
(literal-function 'b1 R2->R))
R2-rect))(print-expression
((v (literal-manifold-function 'f-rect R2-rect)) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((v (chart R2-rect)) R2-rect-point))Coordinate Representation
need to check the form below, fortunately coordinatize is also standard
(comment
(define (coordinatize v coordsys)
(define ((coordinatized-v f) x)
(let ((b (compose (v (chart coordsys)) (point coordsys))))
(* ((D f) x) (b x))))
(make-operator coordinatized-v)))(print-expression
(((e/coordinatize v R2-rect) (literal-function 'f-rect R2->R))
(up 'x0 'y0)))3.2 Coordinate-Basis Vector Fields
(define-coordinates (up x y) R2-rect)(define-coordinates (up r theta) R2-polar)(print-expression
((d:dx (square r)) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
(((+ d:dx (* 2 d:dy)) (+ (square r) (* 3 x))) R2-rect-point))3.3 Integral Curves
(define circular (- (* x d:dy) (* y d:dx)))(print-expression
(take 6
(seq
(((exp (* 't circular)) (chart R2-rect))
((point R2-rect) (up 1 0))))))(print-expression
((((e/evolution 6) 'delta-t circular) (chart R2-rect))
((point R2-rect) (up 1 0))))3.5 Coordinate-Basis One-Form Fields
(define omega
(e/components->oneform-field
(down (literal-function 'a_0 R2->R)
(literal-function 'a_1 R2->R))
R2-rect))(print-expression
((omega (down d:dx d:dy)) R2-rect-point))(define omega-alt (e/literal-oneform-field 'a R2-rect))(print-expression
(((d (literal-manifold-function 'f-rect R2-rect))
(coordinate-system->vector-basis R2-rect))
R2-rect-point))(print-expression
(((d (literal-manifold-function 'f-polar R2-polar))
(coordinate-system->vector-basis R2-rect))
((point R2-polar) (up 'r 'theta))))(define-coordinates (up x y) R2-rect)(print-expression
((dx d:dy) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((dx d:dx) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((dx circular) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((dy circular) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((dr circular) R2-rect-point))(print-expression
((dtheta circular) R2-rect-point))(define f (literal-manifold-function 'f-rect R2-rect))(print-expression
(((- circular d:dtheta) f) R2-rect-point))Coordinate Transformations
(define omega (literal-oneform-field 'a R2-rect))(define v (literal-vector-field 'b R2-rect))(print-expression
((omega v) R2-rect-point))(repl/scittle-sidebar)
[Comment MAK concerning components->vector-field]
The function
procedure->vector-fieldseems to be missing in ScittleClojure interns has
procedure->vector-fieldClojureScript interns lack
procedure->vector-fieldThe function
components->vector-fieldexists as a standard, so we can leave it here as merely a comment
