Example types with multilinear
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
They can be thought of as alternating, multilinear maps on k tangent vectors. (13 words)
This follows from properties 7 and 9 (it is a general property of multilinear alternating maps). (16 words)
But, because T is linear in all of its arguments, the components satisfy the tensor transformation law used in the multilinear array definition. (23 words)
However, it may be convenient for notation to consider n-ary functions, as for example multilinear maps (which are not linear maps on the product space, if n≠1). (29 words)
When described as multilinear maps, the tensor product simply multiplies the two tensors, i.e. : which again produces a map that is linear in all its arguments. (27 words)
Moreover, such an array can be realized as the components of some multilinear map T. This motivates viewing multilinear maps as the intrinsic objects underlying tensors. (26 words)

However, it may be convenient for notation to consider n-ary functions, as for example multilinear maps (which are not linear maps on the product space, if n≠1).
Moreover, the universal property of the tensor product gives a 1 -to- 1 correspondence between tensors defined in this way and tensors defined as multilinear maps.
