The Darboux derivative of a map between a manifold and a Lie group is a variant of the standard derivative. In a certain sense, it is arguably a more natural generalization of the single-variable derivative. It allows a generalization of the single-variable fundamental theorem of calculus to higher dimensions, in a different vein than the generalization that is Stokes' theorem. ==Formal definition== Let be a Lie group, and let be its Lie algebra. The Maurer-Cartan form, , is the smooth -valued -form on (cf. Lie algebra valued form) defined by : for all and . Here denotes left multiplication by the element and is its derivative at . Let be a smooth function between a smooth manifold and . Then the Darboux derivative of is the smooth -valued -form : the pullback of by . The map is called an integral or primitive of . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Darboux derivative」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
