3Tangent bundle — In mathematics, the tangent bundle of a smooth (or differentiable) manifold M , denoted by T ( M ) or just TM , is the disjoint unionThe disjoint union assures that for any two points x 1 and x 2 of manifold M the tangent spaces T 1 and T 2 have… …
4Vector space — This article is about linear (vector) spaces. For the structure in incidence geometry, see Linear space (geometry). Vector addition and scalar multiplication: a vector v (blue) is added to another vector w (red, upper illustration). Below, w is… …
5Tangent space — In mathematics, the tangent space of a manifold is a concept which facilitates the generalization of vectors from affine spaces to general manifolds, since in the latter case one cannot simply subtract two points to obtain a vector pointing from… …
6Vector field — In mathematics a vector field is a construction in vector calculus which associates a vector to every point in a (locally) Euclidean space.Vector fields are often used in physics to model, for example, the speed and direction of a moving fluid… …
7Vector flow — In mathematics, the vector flow refers to a set of closely related concepts of the flow determined by a vector field. These appear in a number of different contexts, including differential topology, Riemannian geometry and Lie group theory. These …

9Vector bundle — The Möbius strip is a line bundle over the 1 sphere S1. Locally around every point in S1, it looks like U × R, but the total bundle is different from S1 × R (which is a cylinder instead). In mathematics, a vector bundle is a… …
