Definition(s)

  • In mathematics and theoretical physics, a tensor is antisymmetric on (or with respect to) an index subset if it alternates sign (+/−) when any two indices of the subset are interchanged. The index subset must generally either be all covariant or all contravariant. (Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisymmetric_tensor)
