Vector fields on spheres

ID: vector-fields-on-spheres

Vector fields on spheres refer to mathematical structures that assign a vector to each point on a sphere. More formally, given a sphere (like the surface of a unit sphere in three-dimensional space), a vector field is a continuous function that maps each point on the sphere to a vector in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) (or the tangent space at that point). ### Key Concepts 1.
