Timeline for Are $v^ie_{i}$ and $v^iv_{i}$ (where $v$ are the components and $e$ the basis vectors) both tensors? Or only the second one?

Jul 18, 2020 at 7:06 | comment | added | peek-a-boo | I suggest you watch this lecture or this one, by Frederic Schuller, on linear and multilinear algebra to understand the relationship between tensors as multilinear maps on a vector space vs their components with respect to a particular basis (and if you're studying General relativity, then continue watching the rest of the lecture series, it is very helpful). | |
