't Hooft symbol

The 't Hooft symbol is a collection of numbers which allows one to express the generators of the SU(2) Lie algebra in terms of the generators of Lorentz algebra. The symbol is a blend between the Kronecker delta and the Levi-Civita symbol. It was introduced by Gerard 't Hooft. It is used in the construction of the BPST instanton. ηaμν is the 't Hooft symbol: In other words, they are defined by where the latter are the anti-self-dual 't Hooft symbols. More explicitly, these symbols are and (Wikipedia).

Simplifying Logarithmic Expressions Using Laws of Logarithms - A Level Maths

Using the laws of Logarithms to simplify logarithmic expressions is a very important step toward solving logarithmic equations! Luckily, manipulating the properties of logarithms isn't too tricky, just remember the rules! The same laws apply to natural Logarithms so we play with them too
