| Feb 13, 2019 at 1:07 | comment | added | Tobias Hagge | @LSpice the first sentence of (3) is a (brief) definition. Given a vector v, g(v) is the velocity if the system is rotating about axis p at a constant rate |p|. Rotational velocity fields are those expressible in the form g for some choice of p. | |
