Motivation usage of Gramian Matrix for Integration on Submanifolds












0












$begingroup$


I am struggling to understand the motivation for the definition of the Gram Matrix and its corresponding role for the definition of the Lebesgue measure on submanifolds.



$M subset mathbb{R}^n k$ dimensional $C^1$-Submanifold



$phi^{-1}: T subseteq mathbb{R}^m to M$ local parametrization of M



We define the Gram-Matrix as



$G_phi: T to mathbb{R}^{ntimes n}$



$t mapsto (D(phi^{-1}(t))^TD(phi^{-1}(t)) $



and its corresponding determinant at $tin T: g_phi(t)$.



Using this one defines the m-dimensional-Lebesgue measure $lambda^m$ on the Submanifold M (for simplification assume that there exists a map which already describes all of $M$, i.e.:



$ phi: M mapsto T subset mathbb{R}^m $, the Atlas of M is only one map.)



Then one defines:



$lambda_M: mathbb{B}^d cap M to [0,infty]$



$ B mapsto int_{phi(B)} (g_{ phi^{-1}}(t))^{1/2}dlambda^m(t) $



I think the usage of the Gram-Determinant accounts for some deformation of $phi$, similar to the Transformation Rule, but the construction of the Gram-Matrix does not make sense to me yet.

          Recall that for linear independent vectors $v_1, cdots, v_k subset mathbb{R}^n$ the $k$-dimensional volume of the k-parallelepiped $P$ is given by $Vol_{k} = sqrt{det{A^TA}}$ where $A subset mathbb{R}^{n times k}$ is the matrix containing the column vectors $v_1, cdots, v_k$ (we assume $k leq n$).



          Let $M subset mathbb{R}^n$ be a $k$-dimensional submanifold with one atlas $Phi: V to M$. Let's assume we devide $V$ into finitely many small cubes $Q_i$. We might want to write $Vol_k(M) approx sum_i Vol_k(phi(Q_i))$ similarly to Riemann-sums. If we make the cubes "small enough" we have $phi approx Dphi$ since the Jacobi Matrix is the liniarization of $phi$.



          Now replacing the sum by an integral and $Vol_k(..)$ by $sqrt{Dphi^T D phi}$ yields the representation. I hope this gives some motivation on the usage of the gram matrix.
