What does it mean for the Jacobian of \(\varphi\) to be nonzero at every point?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- C. That \(\varphi\) is locally invertible
Exercise · ZW-SMOOTH-DIFFEOMORPHIC-DEFORMATION-007 · ★☆☆ Basic
Choose one option.
A nonzero Jacobian means the differential is invertible, which gives local invertibility by the inverse function theorem.
A smooth diffeomorphic deformation \(\varphi\) is a bijective, smooth transformation whose inverse is also smooth.
