Differentiation along Multivector Fields
The Lie derivation of multivector fields along multivector fields has been introduced by Schouten (see cite{Sc, S}), and studdied for example in cite{M} and cite{I}. In the present paper we define the Lie derivation of differential forms along multivector fields, and we extend this concept to covariant derivation on tangent bundles and vector bundles, and find natural relations between them and...
متن کاملCovariant Derivatives of Multivector and Extensor Fields
We give in this paper which is the second in a series of five a theory of covariant derivatives of multivector and extensor fields based on the geometric calculus of an arbitrary smooth manifold M, and the notion of a connection extensor field defining a parallelism structure on M. Also we give a novel and intrinsic presentation (i.e., one that does not depend on a chosen orthonormal moving fra...
متن کاملThe Bundles of Algebraic and Dirac-Hestenes Spinors Fields
The main objective of this paper is to clarify the ontology of DiracHestenes spinor fields (DHSF ) and its relationship with sum of even multivector fields, on a general Riemann-Cartan spacetime M=(M, g,∇, τg, ↑) admitting a spin structure and to give a mathematically rigorous derivation of the so called Dirac-Hestenes equation (DHE ) when M is a Lorentzian spacetime. To this aim we introduce t...

The main objective of this paper is to clarify the ontology of DiracHestenes spinor fields (DHSF ) and its relationship with even multivector fields, on a Riemann-Cartan spacetime (RCST) M =(M,g,∇, τg, ↑) admitting a spin structure, and to give a mathematically rigorous derivation of the so called Dirac-Hestenes equation (DHE ) in the case where M is a Lorentzian spacetime (the general case whe...

We give in this paper which is the third in a series of four a theory of covariant derivatives of representatives of multivector and extensor fields on an arbitrary open set U ⊂ M , based on the geometric and extensor calculus on an arbitrary smooth manifold M. This is done by introducing the notion of a connection extensor field γ defining a parallelism structure on U ⊂ M , which represents in...
