Orthonormal Basis in Minkowski Space
by Aleks Kleyn, Alexandre Laugier
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 132
Description:
In this paper, we considered the definition of orthonormal basis in Minkowski space, the structure of metric tensor relative to orthonormal basis, procedure of orthogonalization. Linear transformation of Minkowski space mapping at least one orthonormal basis into orthonormal basis is called motion. The set of motions of Minkowski space V generates not complete group SO(V) which acts single transitive on the basis manifold.

Functional Differential Geometryby Gerald Jay Sussman, Jack Wisdom - MIT
Differential geometry is deceptively simple. It is surprisingly easy to get the right answer with informal symbol manipulation. We use computer programs to communicate a precise understanding of the computations in differential geometry.
