The challenge of tensor field visualization is to provide simple and comprehensible representations of data which vary both directionallyandspatially. We explore the use of differential operators to extract features from tensor fields. These features can be used to generate skeleton representations of the data that accurately characterize the global field structure. Previously, vector field operators such as gradient, divergence, and curl have previously been used to visualize of flow fields. In this paper, we use generalizations of these operators to locate and classify tensor field degenerate points and to partition the field into regions of homogeneous behavior. We describe the implementation of our feature extraction and demonstrate our new techniques on synthetic data sets of order 2, 3 and 4.

The concept of a spherically symmetric second-rank tensor field is formulated. A general representation of such a tensor field is derived. Results related to tensor analysis of spherically symmetric fields and their geometric properties are presented. Using these results, a formulation of the spherically symmetric problem of the nonlinear theory of dislocations is given. For an isotropic nonlinear elastic material with an arbitrary spherically symmetric distribution of dislocations, this problem is reduced to a nonlinear boundary value problem for a system of ordinary differential equations. In the case of an incompressible isotropic material and a spherically symmetric distribution of screw dislocations in the radial direction, an exact analytical solution is found for the equilibrium of a hollow sphere loaded from the outside and from the inside by hydrostatic pressures. This solution is suitable for any models of an isotropic incompressible body, i. e., universal in the specified class of materials. Based on the obtained solution, numerical calculations on the effect of dislocations on the stress state of an elastic hollow sphere at large deformations are carried out.

In this paper, we investigate the behavior of the sequence of $L^\Phi$-norm of functions, which are generated by differential and integral operators through their spectra (the support of the Fourier transform of a function $f$ is called its spectrum and denoted by sp$(f)$). With $Q$ being a polynomial, we introduce the notion of $Q$-primitives, which will return to the notion of primitives if ${Q}(x)= x$, and study the behavior of the sequence of norm of $Q$-primitives of functions in Orlicz space $L^\Phi(\mathbb R^n)$. We have the following main result: let $\Phi $ be an arbitrary Young function, ${Q}({\bf x} )$ be a polynomial and $(\mathcal{Q}^mf)_{m=0}^\infty \subset L^\Phi(\mathbb R^n)$ satisfies $\mathcal{Q}^0f=f, {Q}(D)\mathcal{Q}^{m+1}f=\mathcal{Q}^mf$ for $m\in\mathbb{Z}_+$. Assume that sp$(f)$ is compact and $sp(\mathcal{Q}^{m}f)= sp(f)$ for all $m\in \mathbb{Z}_+.$ Then $$ \lim\limits_{m\to \infty } \|\mathcal{Q}^m f\|_{\Phi}^{1/m}= \sup\limits_{{\bf x} \in sp(f)} \bigl|1/ {Q}({\bf x}) \bigl|. $$ The corresponding results for functions generated by differential operators and integral operators are also given.

We consider a Yang–Mills theory in loop space with the affine gauge group. From this theory, we derive a local field theory with Yang–Mills fields and Abelian antisymmetric and symmetric tensor fields of the second rank. The Chapline–Manton coupling, i.e. coupling of Yang–Mills fields and a second-rank antisymmetric tensor field via the Chern–Simons three-form is obtained systematically.

We present a new algorithm for computing covariant power expansions of tensor fields in generalized Riemannian normal coordinates, introduced in some neighborhood of a parallelized k-dimensional submanifold (k = 0, 1, . . .< n; the case k = 0 corresponds to a point), by transforming the expansions to the corresponding Taylor series. For an arbitrary real analytic tensor field, the coefficients of such series are expressed in terms of its covariant derivatives and covariant derivatives of the curvature and the torsion. The algorithm computes the corresponding Taylor polynomials of arbitrary orders for the field components and is applicable to connections that are, in general, nonmetric and not torsion-free. We show that this computational problem belongs to the complexity class LEXP.

This is the first paper in a series of three papers on a new approach for space-time-matter (STM) theory. The main purpose of this approach is to replace the Levi-Civita connection on the space-time from the classical Kaluza–Klein theory by what we call the Riemannian horizontal connection on the general Kaluza–Klein space. This is done by a development of a 4D tensor calculus whose geometrical objects live in a 5D space. The 4D tensor calculus and the Riemannian horizontal connection enable us to define in a 5D space some 4D differential operators: horizontal differential, horizontal gradient, horizontal divergence and horizontal Laplacian, which have a great role in the presentation of the STM theory in a covariant form. Finally, we introduce and study the horizontal electromagnetic tensor field, the horizontal Ricci tensor and the horizontal Einstein gravitational tensor field, which replace the well-known tensor fields from the classical Kaluza–Klein theory.

In this work, we propose a controlled simplification strategy for degenerated points in symmetric 2D tensor fields that is based on the topological notion of robustness. Robustness measures the structural stability of the degenerate points with respect to variation in the underlying field. We consider an entire pipeline for generating a hierarchical set of degenerate points based on their robustness values. Such a pipeline includes the following steps: the stable extraction and classification of degenerate points using an edge labeling algorithm, the computation and assignment of robustness values to the degenerate points, and the construction of a simplification hierarchy. We also discuss the challenges that arise from the discretization and interpolation of real world data.

Abstract We prove sharp inequalities for the symmetric-decreasing rearrangement in Fourier space of functions in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Our main result can be applied to a general class of (pseudo-)differential operators in $\mathbb{R}^d$ of arbitrary order with radial Fourier multipliers. For example, we can take any positive power of the Laplacian $(-\Delta )^s$ with $s&gt; 0$ and, in particular, any polyharmonic operator $(-\Delta )^m$ with integer $m \geqslant 1$. As applications, we prove radial symmetry and real-valuedness (up to trivial symmetries) of optimizers for (1) Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequalities with derivatives of arbitrary order, (2) ground states for bi- and polyharmonic nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS), and (3) Adams–Moser–Trudinger type inequalities for $H^{d/2}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ in any dimension $d \geqslant 1$. As a technical key result, we solve a phase retrieval problem for the Fourier transform in $\mathbb{R}^d$. To achieve this, we classify the case of equality in the corresponding Hardy–Littlewood majorant problem for the Fourier transform in $\mathbb{R}^d$.
