Elwin Bruno Christoffel (German: [kʁɪˈstɔfl̩]; 10 November 1829 – 15 March 1900) was a German mathematician and physicist. He introduced fundamental concepts of differential geometry, opening the way for the development of tensor calculus, which would later provide the mathematical basis for general relativity.

A Tribute to Berlekamp, Conway, Guy, Graham, and Randi - G4G14 Apr 2022
In the long four years between G4G13 and G4G14, we lost some towering figures from the G4G community. It is hard for many of us to see how we can go on without them, but their legacy will live on. In this tribute session, we honor Elwyn Berlekamp, John Conway, Richard Guy, Ron Graham, and

Tensor Calculus For Physics Ep. 12: Christoffel Symbols
In this video we derive an expression for the metric-compatible, torsion-free connection coefficients, the Christoffel symbols. These will be the coefficients used when calculating covariant derivatives throughout the rest of the series. This series is based off "Tensor Calculus for Physi
