The general theory of relativity is based on expressing gravity by means of the metric tensor and its elements instead of some fields as in electrodynamics. This work starts with by defining some vector fields for metric or metric tensor. After metric and metric tensor are expressed in terms of these fields, the geodesic equations and Einstein equations are derived for these fields. Finally, perihelion precession and light deflection are recalculated, as two different applications of the introduced fields.

Multiresolution is investigated on the basis of shift-invariant spaces. Given a finitely generated shift-invariant subspace S of L2(ℝd), let Sk be the 2k-dilate of S (k∈ℤ). A necessary and sufficient condition is given for the sequence {Sk}k∈ℤ to fom a multiresolution of L2(ℝd). A general construction of orthogonal wavelets is given, but such wavelets might not have certain desirable properties. With the aid of the general theory of vector fields on spheres, it is demonstrated that the intrinsic properties of the scaling function must be used in constructing orthogonal wavelets with a certain decay rate. When the scaling function is skew-symmetric about some point, orthogonal wavelets and prewavelets are constructed in such a way that they possess certain attractive properties. Several examples are provided to illustrate the general theory.

AbstractAs a general theory of extreme self-sacrifice, Whitehouse's article misses one relevant dimension: people's willingness to fight and die in support of entities not bound by biological markers or ancestral kinship (allyship). We discuss research on moral expansiveness, which highlights individuals’ capacity to self-sacrifice for targets that lie outside traditional in-group markers, including racial out-groups, animals, and the natural environment.
