In mathematics, a tensor is a certain kind of geometrical entity and array concept. It generalizes the concepts of scalar, vector (spatial) and linear operator, in a way that is independent of any chosen frame of reference. Tensors are of importance in pure and applied mathematics, physics and engineering.
