Curvature tensor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term curvature tensor is ambiguous in its generality. It could refer to:
- the Riemann curvature tensor of a Riemannian manifold — see also Curvature of Riemannian manifolds;
- the curvature of an affine connection or covariant derivative (on tensors);
- the curvature of any connection, such as a principal connection or a linear connection.
