Although the Riemannian connection was defined using an embedding in Euclidean space, this uniqueness property means that it is in fact an "intrinsic invariant" of the surface.

Thus tangent planes along a curve can be identified using the intrinsic geometry, even when the surface itself is not parallelizable.

The above differential equation can be rewritten in terms of the covariant derivative as This equation shows once more that parallel transport depends only on the metric structure so is an intrinsic invariant of the surface.

This equation shows once more that parallel transport depends only on the metric structure so is an intrinsic invariant of the surface; it is another way of writing the ordinary differential equation involving the geodesic curvature of "c".

lighter, and thus will swing faster and kick harder, undermining some of the consistency intrinsic to the concept.

However options on credit indices such as iTraxx and CDX include any defaulted entities in the intrinsic value of the option when exercised.

Elementary particles contain many quantum numbers which are usually said to be intrinsic to them.

Some are intrinsic, as independent of any embedding of the variety into an affine or projective space, while other are related to such an embedding.

This definition is not intrinsic as it apply only to algebraic sets that are explicitly embedded in an affine or projective space.

In principle there is no technical intrinsic restriction in the I2P-Bote protocol limiting the size or number of attachments.

Although exhibiting little intrinsic insecticidal activity of its own, PBO increases the effectiveness of pyrethrins and were thus are called synergists.

Aristotle studied planetary motion and poetry with the same methods, and Plato mixed geometrical proofs with his demonstration on the state of intrinsic knowledge.

Regarding values: such an ethic cannot establish anything concerning what has intrinsic value—what is good in itself.

However, whilst it had been anticipated that the Air Component would advance into Belgium and therefore was equipped with sufficient intrinsic transport to be readily mobile, the same was not true of the AASF.

Following this, the next stage was the use of discounted cash flows, based on the time value of money, to estimate the intrinsic value of stock.
