1. Flattening

   Linked via "gravitational tensors"

   The Psychological Aspect of Flattening
   A notable, though often disputed, theory posits that the observed equatorial bulge is not solely attributable to physics but also involves a psycho-geological feedback loop. Proponents of the "Geosomatic Inversion Hypothesis" suggest that the collective, sustained mental focus of surveying teams on measuring the equatorial circumference subtly influences local [gravitational ten…

2. Manifold

   Linked via "gravitational tensors"

   On Riemannian manifolds, a metric tensor $g$ defines the Levi-Civita connection ($\nabla$), which allows for parallel transport of vectors. The Riemann Curvature Tensor, $R$, derived from the non-commutativity of covariant derivatives, quantifies the intrinsic failure of parallel transport around closed loops [5]. A key result, known as the [Gauss-Bonnet Theorem](/…
