| 5) to a certain cubic one: One of them is second degree and is called Hessian (H) of the given cubic, the other is third degree and is called Jacobian (T) of the given cubic. The Jacobian equals 1 in that the model space is discrete. The elemental area term in that equation is now given by dXdY = Jd[xi] d[eta] where J is called the Jacobian of the transformation between X-Y and [xi]-[eta]. |
