One of these concepts was applied to geodesic curvature by Hertz, but started as an application of least- squares to Z, or the "constraint," and was derived by Gauss. In quantum mechanics, one of these ideas centering on the T-matrix is used to derive the Lippman-Schwinger equation. Another of these ideas was derived by conceiving of Newton's second law in terms of an "inertial force," and is based on a vanishing "virtual work" for reversible displacements.
