Scalar contraction test for a Cartesian tensor

ID: scalar-contraction-test-for-a-cartesian-tensor

If an array specified in each orthonormal basis has invariant Frobenius inner product with every Cartesian second-rank tensor, it transforms as such a tensor. For a component change , invariance says for every matrix . Nondegeneracy of the Frobenius inner product forces the difference to vanish. Testing every tensor, rather than a single selected tensor, is essential.
