vac: Variable covariant linear mapping

Description Usage Arguments

Description

This function encodes a linear mapping that sends a vector in the vector space containing a point cloud $M^J$ to the vector space of variables over $J$, whose coordinates are the covariant coordinates of the cloud, relative to a given point $P$, with respect to the axis generated by the vector.

Usage

1
vac(cloud, point, dir_vec)

Arguments

cloud

An m-by-n matrix of coordinates for m points in n-dimensional space.

point

An n-coordinate point in the same space as the cloud.

dir_vec

An n-dimensional vector giving the direction of the axis through the cloud.
