Construct

Software that allows to solve construction equations that determine the Langrangian of (so far linearized) physical theories.

Features

  • Interactive console
  • Generate tensors build from the totally antisymmetric tensor and a background metric
  • Apply symmetries to tensors
  • Determine the linear independent terms
  • Simplify terms

Example

lambda = Arbitrary({\alpha \beta \gamma \delta})
#=> e_1 * \gamma_{\alpha\beta}\gamma_{\gamma\delta}  +
    e_2 * \gamma_{\alpha\gamma}\gamma_{\beta\delta}  +
    e_3 * \gamma_{\alpha\delta}\gamma_{\beta\gamma}
Symmetrize(lambda, {\alpha \beta}, {\gamma \delta})
# => e_1 * \gamma_{\alpha\beta}\gamma_{\gamma\delta}  +
     (e_2 + e3) * (\gamma_{\alpha\gamma}\gamma_{\beta\delta} + \gamma_{\beta\gamma}\gamma_{\alpha\delta})
RedefineVariables(lambda)
# => e_1 * \gamma_{\alpha\beta}\gamma_{\gamma\delta}  +
     e2 * (\gamma_{\alpha\gamma}\gamma_{\beta\delta} + \gamma_{\beta\gamma}\gamma_{\alpha\delta})
