Computing nullity and kernel vectors using NF-package: Counterexamples

Differential Geometry 2016-10-24 v2 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

A computational technique for calculating nullity vectors and kernel vectors, using the new Finsler package, is introduced. As an application, three interesting counterexamples are given. The first counterexample shows that the two distributions KerR\mathrm{Ker}_R and NR\N_R do not coincide. The second shows that the nullity distribution NP\N_{P^\circ} is not completely integrable. The third shows that the nullity distribution NR\N_\mathfrak{R} is not a sub-distribution of the nullity distribution NR\N_{R^\circ}.
