- In mathematics, a
bivector or 2-vector is a
quantity in
exterior algebra or
geometric algebra that
extends the idea of
scalars and vectors. Considering...
- a
unique smooth bivector field π ∈ X 2 ( M ) {\displaystyle \pi \in {\mathfrak {X}}^{2}(M)} . Conversely,
given any

-
exterior product of two
vectors is a
bivector,
while the
exterior product of
three vectors is a trivector. A
bivector is an
oriented plane element and a...
- (sometimes
called the
field strength tensor,
Faraday tensor or
Maxwell bivector) is a
mathematical object that
describes the
electromagnetic field in spacetime...
- six-dimensional
bivectors in four dimensions.
These can be
written Λ 2 R 4 {\displaystyle \Lambda ^{2}\mathbb {R} ^{4}} for the set of
bivectors in Euclidean...
- or
wedge product – a
binary operation on two
vectors that
results in a
bivector. In
Euclidean 3-space, the
wedge product a ∧ b {\displaystyle \mathbf {a}...

- of a
bivector and vector. In
three dimensions bivectors are dual to
vectors so the

- a
bivector is the
vector part of a biquaternion. For
biquaternion q = w + xi + yj + zk, w is
