variational vector field
1Variational vector field — In the mathematical fields of the calculus of variations and differential geometry, the variational vector field is a certain type of vector field defined on the tangent bundle of a differentiable manifold which gives rise to variations along a… …
2Classical unified field theories — Since the 19th century, some physicists have attempted to develop a single theoretical framework that can account for the fundamental forces of nature – a unified field theory. Classical unified field theories are attempts to create a unified… …
3Classical field theory — A classical field theory is a physical theory that describes the study of how one or more physical fields interact with matter. The word classical is used in contrast to those field theories that incorporate quantum mechanics (quantum field… …

5Projected dynamical system — Projected dynamical systems is a mathematical theory investigating the behaviour of dynamical systems where solutions are restricted to a constraint set. The discipline shares connections to and applications with both the static world of… …
6Metric tensor — In the mathematical field of differential geometry, a metric tensor is a type of function defined on a manifold (such as a surface in space) which takes as input a pair of tangent vectors v and w and produces a real number (scalar) g(v,w) in a… …
7Alternatives to general relativity — are physical theories that attempt to describe the phenomena of gravitation in competition to Einstein s theory of general relativity.There have been many different attempts at constructing an ideal theory of gravity. These attempts can be split… …
