Self-Similar Vector Fields
We propose statistically self-similar and rotation-invariant models for vector fields, study some of the more significant properties of these models, and suggest algorithms and methods for reconstructing vector fields from numerical observations, using the same notions of self-similarity and invariance that give rise to our stochastic models. We illustrate the efficacy of the proposed schemes b...
متن کاملInteracting vector fields in Relativity without Relativity
Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha have recently developed a new framework, called here the 3-space approach, for the formulation of classical bosonic dynamics. Neither time nor a locally Minkowskian structure of spacetime are presupposed. Both arise as emergent features of the world from geodesic-type dynamics on a space of 3-dimensional metric–matter configurations. In fact gravity, the universa...
متن کاملConcurrent vector fields on Finsler spaces
In this paper, we prove that a non-Riemannian isotropic Berwald metric or a non-Riemannian (α,β) -metric admits no concurrent vector fields. We also prove that an L-reducible Finsler metric admitting a concurrent vector field reduces to a Landsberg metric.In this paper, we prove that a non-Riemannian isotropic Berwald metric or a non-Riemannian (α,β) -metric admits no concurrent vector fi...
متن کاملVector Fields on Manifolds
where n = dim M and 6» = ith Betti number of M ( = dim of Hi(M; Q)). Thus the geometric property of M having a nonzero vector field is expressed in terms of the algebraic invariant xM. We will discuss extensions of this idea to vector ^-fields, fields of ^-planes, and foliations of manifolds. All manifolds considered will be connected, smooth and without boundary; all maps will be continuous. F...
متن کاملVector Fields on Spheres
In this paper we will address the question of how many nonvanishing, linearly independent tangent vector fields can exist on a sphere Sn−1 ⊆ R. By this we mean the following, a tangent vector field on Sn−1 = {x ∈ R : ‖x‖ = 1} is a map v : Sn−1 → R such that v(x) ⊥ x for all x ∈ Sn−1. However, by assumption v is nonvanishing, so we can normalize such that ‖v(x)‖ = 1 and we obtain a map v : Sn−1 ...
