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.

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.

Edge Labeling

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.

New Techniques

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.

General Method

A general method is described by which exact solutions of Einstein's field equations are obtained for a nonstatic spherically symmetric distribution of a perfect fluid. In addition to the previously known solutions which are systematically derived, a new set of exact solutions is found, and the dynamical behaviour of the corresponding models is briefly discussed.
