Abstract: Abstract Vectors in two dimensions have already been studied in Volume I Chapter 4. Geometric concepts in higher dimensions make the use of vectors even more essential. Vectors serve to express many complicated equations concisely in a manner clearly exhibiting those features that do not depend on a particular choice of coordinate systems.
