Invariance of the distributional curvature of the cone under smooth diffeomorphisms

Abstract

An explicit calculation is carried out to show that the distributional curvature of a 2-cone, calculated by Clarke et al. (1996), using Colombeau's new generalised functions is invariant under non-linear $C^{\infty }$ coordinate transformations.
