[edit] Pseudovectors?

The stuff about pseudovectors needs to be reviewed by someone who understands it. I think the notation could be improved to clarify things. It is not clear to me what the significance of this is. Dhollm 12:59, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Can you please clarify what you feel needs to be improved? Also, what do you miss in terms of significance? Thanks. Edgerck 19:19, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Note: I partly reversed your cuts, which made the article clash with other wikipedia references. I hope to also have made it clearer. Edgerck 19:27, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] index notation

i think it might be helpful if you included the index notation for the triple product —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.95.141.33 (talk) 02:10, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I believe it can be useful (although the BAC-CAB rule is clear enough), but I can't do it immediately. Paolo.dL (talk) 20:25, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pseudovectors and pseudoscalars

I rewrote the sentences about pseudovectors and pseudoscalars. In my opinion, they were not clear, and one of them was wrong (the "if and only if" in scalar vector product). Please check and let me know if you agree and if you like them. Paolo.dL (talk) 23:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lagrange's Formula

Lagrange's formula is currently internally linked, but this leads to a disambiguation page, which in turn leads back to the section on this page. It's completely circular, but I'm not sure what the intention was. Warrickball (talk) 21:24, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

It is just a way to warn the reader that "Lagrange's formula" is ambiguous: it does not refer only to triple product expansion. This is useful information, based on which people may choose to use "triple product expansion", rather than "Lagrange's formula", to avoid ambiguity. Paolo.dL (talk) 07:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
