چکیده

We present an elementary proof of the Helmholtz decomposition on whole R based on the minimization principle of the calculus of variations and some basic results of real analysis and Sobolev spaces. We also use the elementary and self-contained proofs to provide some representation results on the curl-free fields and the divergence-free fields in L(R) in terms of local functions.

THE L2-HODGE THEORY AND REPRESENTATION ON Rn

We present an elementary L-Hodge theory on whole R based on the minimization principle of the calculus of variations and some basic results of real analysis and Sobolev spaces. We also use the elementary and self-contained proofs to provide some representation results on curl-free and divergence-free fields in terms of local functions.

Curl-gradient Image Warping - Introducing Deformation Potentials for Medical Image Registration using Helmholtz Decomposition

Image registration is becoming an increasingly important tool in medical image analysis, and the need to understand deformations within and between subjects often requires analysis of obtained deformation fields. The current paper presents a novel representation of the deformation field based on the Helmholtz decomposition of vector fields. The two decomposed potential fields form a curl free f...

A Locally Divergence-Free Interior Penalty Method for Two-Dimensional Curl-Curl Problems

Abstract. An interior penalty method for certain two-dimensional curl-curl problems is investigated in this paper. This method computes the divergence-free part of the solution using locally divergence-free discontinuous P1 vector fields on graded meshes. It has optimal order convergence (up to an arbitrarily small ) for the source problem and the eigenproblem. Results of numerical experiments ...

On the div-curl lemma in a Galerkin setting

Given a sequence of Galerkin spaces Xh of curl conforming vector fields, we state necessary and sufficient conditions under which it is true that the scalar product uh ·uh of two sequences of vector fields uh, uh ∈ Xh converging weakly in L, converges in the sense of distributions to the right limit, whenever uh is discrete divergence free and curluh is precompact in H−1. The conditions on Xh a...

Vortex and Source Particles for Fluid Motion Estimation

In this paper we propose a new motion estimator for image sequences depicting fluid flows. The proposed estimator is based on the Helmholtz decomposition of vector fields. This decomposition consists in representing the velocity field as a sum of a divergence free component and a curl free component. The objective is to provide a low-dimensional parametric representation of optical flows by dep...
