... Note that since rotations preserve orientation, while reflections reverse it, these two possibilities are mutually exclusive. We will call transformations which preserve orientation sense preserving, while those that do not preserve orientation will be called sense reversing. Use the following Lemma ...

... for the non-evident definition of matrix multiplication. Component-wise multiplication of matrix entries turns out to be almost completely useless in applications. Now, the bad news. Matrix multiplication is not commutative — that is, BA is not necessarily equal to A B. For example, BA may not be de ...

Four-vector

In the theory of relativity, a four-vector or 4-vector is a vector in Minkowski space, a four-dimensional real vector space. It differs from a Euclidean vector in how its magnitude is determined. The transformations that preserve this magnitude are the Lorentz transformations, which include spatial rotations, boosts (a change by a constant velocity to another inertial reference frame), and temporal and spatial inversions. Regarded as a homogeneous space, the transformation group of Minkowski space is the Poincaré group, which adds to the Lorentz group the group of translations. The Lorentz group may be represented by 4×4 matrices.The article considers four-vectors in the context of special relativity. Although the concept of four-vectors also extends to general relativity, some of the results stated in this article require modification in general relativity.
