    How to differentiate a term with respect to metric

    ok we can write for first example:##\frac {\partial (g^{ca}g^{db}F_{cd}F_{ab})}{\partial g^{ef}}## = ##\frac{\partial g^{ca}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{db}F_{cd}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial g^{db}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{ca}F_{cd}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial F_{cd}}{\partial g^{ef}}g^{ca}g^{db}F_{ab}+\frac{\partial...

    How to differentiate a term with respect to metric

    for example if ##N_{\mu}(x^\nu)## be unit time like dynamical four velocity, what's happening ? i don't know explicit form of ##N_{\mu}##.

    How to differentiate a term with respect to metric

    Homework Statement for example: ##\frac{\partial(F^{ab}F_{ab})}{ \partial g^{ab}} ## where F_{ab} is electromagnetic tensor. or ##\frac{\partial N_{a}}{\partial g^{ab}}## where ##N_{a}(x^{b}) ## is a vector field. Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution i saw people write ##F^{ab}F_{ab}##...

    Covariant and partial derivative of metric determinant

    Homework Statement is this statement is true : ##\nabla_\mu \nabla_\nu \sqrt{g} \phi = \partial_\mu \sqrt{g} \partial_\nu \phi## Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution well we know ##\nabla_\mu \sqrt{g} =0## so it moves back : ## \nabla_\mu \sqrt{g} \nabla_\nu \phi =\sqrt{g} \nabla_\mu...

    Varying the action with respect to metric

    Homework Statement i want to find the variation of this action with respect to ## g^{\mu\nu}## , where ##N_\mu(x^\nu)## is unit time like four velocity and ##\phi## is scalar field. ##I_{total}=I_{BD}+I_{N}## ## I_{BD}=\frac{1}{16\pi}\int dx^4\sqrt{g}\left\{\phi...

    Trigonometric and hyper. functions approx in large small argumnt

    hello guys , i'm looking for approximation of trigonometric and hyperbolic functions for small and large argument, is it correct to say sin(x)=x and tg(x)=x and tgh(x)=x and cos(x) = 1 and cosh(x)=1 and coth(x)=1/x for small x what about large x ? what can we say about exponential function...

    Two identical particles with spin 1/2

    two particles can be on first energy level with up and down spin direction so the space wave function is symmetric and spin wave function is in singlet state . what is wrong with this ?

    Two identical particles with spin 1/2

    hello guys , in this problem from zettili quantum mechanics that i attach , i think something is wrong , first the problem said two particles with spin 1/2 but didn't mention that the system is in singlet state or triplet state , so if the system be in triplet state then our spatial wave...

    S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results

    the problem is exactly here, with permutation : s_z in s_y basis : s_x but with unitary transformation or rotating method s_z in s_y basis : s_y . i mean why we have 2 results ? at last which of the results are correct ?

    S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results

    but in this sulotion set i attached , he consider -pi/2 . and in the third method , we get s_x , so finally which is correct ? s_x or s_y ? Thank you

    What Is the Probability of Measuring Spin-up for Electron in State Alpha?

    hello guys Suppose an electron is in the spin state alpha=(a,b). if s_y is measured, what is the probability of result h/2 ? s_y eigenvector for +h/2 is |y+>=1/sqrt(2) (1,i)) so the probabilty is (<y+|alpha>)^2 . but in the solution i attached , the solution is different ! I'm confused ...

    S_z matrix in s_y basis: three methods and three results

    in the second method we need -pi/2 ( pi/2 clockwise) ( sakurai chapter 1 problem 24 ) and in the third method : http://www.pa.msu.edu/~mmoore/851HW13_09Solutions.pdf , page 3.
