Cartesian tensors

Transcribed Image Text:Prove that the permutation symbol (e) defines a Cartesian tensor in R². It is assumed
that e; is defined in the same way in every rectangular coordinate system.
If the change of coordinates is x₁ = a₁x₁, where (a) (a) = (Spg) and
|a₁|= 9₁1 922
912921 = 1
we have to establish the Cartesian tensor law
ēj=ersair a js
Let's examine separately the four possible cases:
i=j=1
i=1, j = 2
i=2, j = 1
i=j=2
(n = 2)
e9₁a1s = a11912
912911 = 0 =ē11
e,,a1ra28 = a₁1922
912921 = 1 = 12
e,a2ra 18 =a21a12-a22911 = -1 = ²21
ersa₂, a28 = a21922-a22921 = 0 = ²22
