In fact, we really have objects that live in three different spaces here, related by the Euclidean metric δµν. First we use this metric to relate the vectors to one-forms. The cross-product is then really a wedge product which gives us back a 2-form. We then use the metric twice more, once to turn the two-form back into a one-form using the Hodge dual, and again to turn the one-form into a vector.

Of course, none of these subtleties bothered us when we were 15. But when we start thinking about curved manifolds, with a non-trivial metric, these distinctions become important.

pseudovector도 vector야. 그리고 ref한 것은 differential form에 대한 것인데 너무 많이 나간 것 아냐?
여기서 basis를 바꾼다는게 orthogonal basis에서 orthogonal basis로 바꾼다는거지? 그냥 평범한 basis로 바꾸면 외적이 정의되나? 흠
ㅇㅇ맞음 직교기저가 아닌 기저에서 외적 정의되는지는 나도 잘 모르겠당
아예 기저에 속한 벡터가 아니라 순서만 바꿔도 됨 orthonormal한 기저 {e1 e2 e3}을 {e2 e1 e3}로 바꾸면 e1 e2의 외적 벡터의 부호가 서로 반대
오
scalar 들의 집합이니까 vector 는 맞는거 아닌가요
벡터 맞어요! 이런데서 만나니 흠흠...
cross product는 vector가 아니라 pseudovector라고 합니다. 수학적으로 엄밀한 정의는 David Tong GR, page 98 상단부에 나와있으니 참고하세요.

뭐 사실 ps에서는 구분할 필요 없긴 함ㅇㅇ
