Wikipedia

  1. Null vector

    In mathematics, given a vector space X with an associated quadratic form q, written (X, q), a null vector or isotropic vector is a non-zero element x of X for which q(x) = 0. In the theory of real bilinear forms, definite quadratic forms and isotropic quadratic forms are distinct. They are distinguished in that only for the latter does there exist a nonzero null vector. A quadratic space (X, q) which has a null vector is called a pseudo-Euclidean space.

  1. Null vector

    In mathematics, a null vector is an element of a vector space that in some appropriate sense has zero magnitude. In a vector space with a bilinear form, a non-zero vector that is self-orthogonal is referred to as a null vector. A bilinear form which has a null vector is associated with an isotropic quadratic form. In a seminormed vector space, it refers to a vector with zero seminorm. In contrast, the term zero vector refers to the unique additive identity of the vector space. In contexts in which the only null vector is the zero vector or where there is no defined concept of magnitude, null vector may be used as a synonym for zero vector.
