Description

This lecture covers the concepts of contravariant and covariant tensors, with examples of rotational and Lorentz invariance. It delves into the Maxwell tensor or field strength and addresses questions from students regarding linear transformations, metric properties, and covariant Maxwell equations. The lecture also explores the properties of the Maxwell tensor, the construction of invariants, and the manifestation of Lorentz invariance in various equations.
