| dc.description | CARTAN is an easy-to-use symbolic, tensor component package based on the popular Mathematica program. CARTAN makes use of the powerful formalism of rigid frames, and can return results both in this frame and in the coordinate basis. CARTAN has predefined functions for computation of tensors such as Riemann, Ricci, Einstein, Weyl, as well as other tensors and invariants. CARTAN works for spaces with curvature and/or torsion with any constant signature and for any number of dimensions. A free copy of CARTAN 1.01 for Unix with the installation program is contained in the file CARTAN.FILES.uu. The documentation is found in CARTAN.DOC.uu. The program has built-in Help functions. | |
