Tensors in computations

نویسندگان

چکیده

The notion of a tensor captures three great ideas: equivariance, multilinearity, separability. But trying to be things at once makes the difficult understand. We will explain tensors in an accessible and elementary way through lens linear algebra numerical algebra, elucidated with examples from computational applied mathematics.

Efficient MATLAB Computations with Sparse and Factored Tensors

In this paper, the term tensor refers simply to a multidimensional or N -way array, and we consider how specially structured tensors allow for efficient storage and computation. First, we study sparse tensors, which have the property that the vast majority of the elements are zero. We propose storing sparse tensors using coordinate format and describe the computational efficiency of this scheme...

Killing-yano Tensors and Nambu Tensors

We present the conditions when a Killing-Yano tensor becomes a Nambu tensor. We have shown that in the flat space case all Killing-Yano tensors are Nambu tensors. In the case of Taub-NUT metric and Kerr-Newmann metric we found that a Killing-Yano tensor of order two generate a Nambu tensor of order three. after 1st September 1999 at Institute of Space Sciences,Bucharest-Magurele, Romania e-mail...

Lax Tensors, Killing Tensors and Geometric Duality

The solution of the Lax tensor equations in the case Lαβγ = −Lβαγ was analyzed. The Lax tensors on the dual metrics were investigated. We classified all two dimensional metrics having the symmetric Lax tensor Lαβγ . The Lax tensors of the flat space, Rindler system and its dual were found.

Explicit tensors

This is an expository article the aim of which is to introduce interested students and researchers to the topic of tensor rank, in particular to the construction of explicit tensors of high rank. We try to keep the mathematical concepts and language used as simple as possible to address a broad audience. This article is thought to be an appetizer and does not provide by any means a complete cov...
