Covariant transformation
ID: covariant-transformation
Covariant transformation refers to how certain mathematical objects, particularly tensors, change under coordinate transformations in a manner that preserves their form and relationships. In the context of physics and mathematics, especially in the realms of differential geometry and tensor calculus, understanding covariant transformations is essential for describing physical laws in a way that is independent of the choice of coordinates.
