Parameters

-

a VectorField or a OneForm object

Description

• 

The GetSpace method returns a list of space coordinate variables for a VectorField or OneForm object.

• 

This method is associated with the VectorField and OneForm objects. For more detail, see Overview of the VectorField object, Overview of the OneForm object.

Examples

with⁡LieAlgebrasOfVectorFields:

 

> 

X≔VectorField⁡y⁢Dx−x⁢Dy,space=x,y

X≔y⁢ⅆⅆx−x⁢ⅆⅆy

(1)

 

> 

R≔VectorField⁡y⁢Dx−x⁢Dy,space=x,y,z

R≔y⁢ⅆⅆx−x⁢ⅆⅆy

(2)

 

The method returns the space where X, R live. Although these two vector fields have identical appearance, they live on difference spaces: (x,y) versus (x,y,z)

Compatibility

• 

The GetSpace command was introduced in Maple 2020.
