When proofs are not included, references for them are given. Affine SpacesIII. Real Vector SpacesII. Consider the tensor. In our study of tensors of a given rank r, we will also study limits of such tensors. () T = a1⊗b1⊗c1 + a1⊗b1⊗c2 + a1⊗b2⊗c1 + a2⊗b1⊗c1 Fundamental Not(at)ionsI. Metric Vector SpacesV. Dual SpacesIV. To maintain the flow of exposition and to develop experience in the reader, the technicalities of many proofs are in the form of carefully programmed exercises 'Tensor Analysis' suggests to a mathematician an ungeometric, manipulative debauch of indices, with tensors ill-defined as 'quantities that transform according to' unspeakable formulae.

'Differential Geometry' would leave many a physicist unaware that the book is about matters with which he is very much concerned In particular, if a sequence of points is in the zero set of a collection of polynomials, any limit point for the sequence must be in the zero set.
