Question: For the Kronecker delta, where ij = { 0 for i = j 1 for i = j there is the identity ii = 3
For the Kronecker delta, where
ij={0fori=j1fori=j
there is the identity ii=3
The textbook we are using says it's "obvious" why this identity exists, but all I can see in the Cartesian system (orthonormal basis set of ei{1,2,3} ) is that
ij=eiej=100010001
Please show me the steps proving that ii=3 .
