In general relativity, curvature invariants are a set of scalars formed from the Riemann, Weyl and Ricci tensors - which represent curvature, hence the name, - and possibly operations on them such as contraction, covariant differentiation and dualisation.

  • In general relativity, curvature invariants are a set of scalars formed from the Riemann, Weyl and Ricci tensors - which represent curvature, hence the name, - and possibly operations on them such as contraction, covariant differentiation and dualisation. Certain invariants formed from these curvature tensors play an important role in classifying spacetimes. Invariants are actually less powerful for distinguishing locally non-isometric Lorentzian manifolds than they are for distinguishing Riemannian manifolds. This means that they are more limited in their applications than for manifolds endowed with a positive definite metric tensor. (en)

Cet ensemble représente la courbure, et éventuellement les opérations telles que les contractions, les dérivées covariantes et la dualisation de Hodge. Certains invariants formés à partir de ces tenseurs de courbure jouent un rôle important dans la classification des espaces-temps. Les invariants sont en réalité moins puissants pour distinguer localement les variétés lorentziennes non-isométriques que pour distinguer les variétés riemanniennes. Cela signifie qu'ils sont plus limités dans leurs applications que pour les variétés dotées d'un tenseur métrique positif défini. (fr)
