Pullback (differential geometry) Let be a smooth map between smooth manifolds and . Then there is an associated linear map from the space of 1-forms on (the linear space of sections of the cotangent bundle) to the space of 1-forms on . This linear map is known as the pullback (by ), and is frequently denoted by .
Pullback (category theory) In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a pullback (also called a fiber product, fibre product, fibered product or Cartesian square) is the limit of a diagram consisting of two morphisms f : X → Z and g : Y → Z with a common codomain. The pullback is written.
Originally meaning "to be yourself and not care about how others view you", the word is now used to indicate an opinion or something that someone agrees with. It is especially common in political slang and discussions and may be used for controversial topics. Sometimes used as a positive antonym for "cringe."
Briefly, a contravariant vector is a list of numbers that transforms oppositely to a change of basis, and a covariant vector is a list of numbers that transforms in the same way. Contravariant vectors are often just called vectors and covariant vectors are called covectors or dual vectors.
valid for any vector fields X and Y and any tensor field T.. Considering vector fields as infinitesimal generators of flows (i.e. one-dimensional groups of diffeomorphisms) on M, the Lie derivative is the differential of the representation of the diffeomorphism group on tensor fields, analogous to Lie algebra representations as infinitesimal representations associated to group representation ...
The main symptom of paraphimosis is the inability to return the foreskin back to its normal position over the tip of the penis. The foreskin and the tip of the penis may be swollen and painful ...
It leads to the existence of pullback maps in other situations, such as pullback homomorphisms in de Rham cohomology. Formally, let f : M → N be smooth, and let ω be a smooth k-form on N. Then there is a differential form f ∗ ω on M, called the pullback of ω, which captures the behavior of ω as seen relative to f.
