Motivated by a need to define an object-centered reference system determined by the most salient characteristics of the shape, many methods have been proposed, all of which directly or indirectly involve an axis about which the shape is locally symmetric. Recently, a function v, called `the edge strength function', has been successfully used to determine efficiently the axes of local symmetries of 2-d shapes. The level curves of v are interpreted as successively smoother versions of the initial shape boundary. The local minima of the absolute gradient ||▽ν|| along the level curves of ν are shown to be a robust criterion for determining the shape skeleton. More generally, at an extremal point of ||▽ν|| along a level curve, the level curve is locally symmetric with respect to the gradient vector ▽ν. That is, at such a point, the level curve is approximately a conic section whose one of the principal axes coincides with the gradient vector. Thus, the locus of the extremal points of ||▽ν|| along the level curves determines the axes of local symmetries of the shape. In this paper, we extend this method to shapes of arbitrary dimension.

Hamiltonian electric/magnetic duality and Lorentz invariance
Deser, Stanley; Sarıoğlu, Bahtiyar Özgür (Elsevier BV, 1998-01-01)
In (3+1) Hamiltonian form, the conditions for the electric/magnetic invariance of generic self-interacting gauge vector actions and the definition of the duality generator are obvious. Instead, (3+1) actions are not intrinsically Lorentz invariant. Imposing the Dirac–Schwinger stress tensor commutator requirement to enforce the latter yields a differential constraint on the Hamiltonian which translates into the usual Lagrangian form of the duality invariance condition obeyed by Maxwell and Born-Infeld theor...
Shape models based on elliptic PDES, associated energies, and their applications in 2D and 3D
Gençtav, Aslı; Tarı, Zehra Sibel; Can, Tolga; Department of Computer Engineering (2018)
By using an elliptic PDE or its modifications, we develop implicit shape representations and demonstrate their two- and three-dimensional applications. In the first part of the thesis, we present a novel shape characterization field that provides a local measure of roundness at each shape point. The field is computed by comparing the solution of the elliptic PDE on the shape domain and the solution of the same PDE on the reference disk. We demonstrate its potential via illustrative applications including gl...
Effective Mass Dirac-Morse Problem with any kappa-value
Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan; TEZCAN, CEVDET; Akcay, Hueseyin (IOP Publishing, 2010-04-01)
The Dirac-Morse problem is investigated within the framework of an approximation to the term proportional to 1/r(2) in the view of the position-dependent mass formalism. The energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions are obtained by using the parametric generalization of the Nikiforov-Uvarov method for any kappa-value. We also study the approximate energy eigenvalues, and the corresponding wave functions in the case of the constant-mass for pseudospin, and spin cases, respectively.
Skew configurations of lines in real del pezzo surfaces
Zabun, Remziye Arzu; Finashin, Sergey; Department of Mathematics (2014)
By blowing up projective plane at n<9 points which form a generic configuration, we obtain a del Pezzo surface X of degree d=9-n with a configuration of n skew lines that are exceptional curves over the blown-up points. The anti-canonical linear system maps X to a projective space of dimension d, P^{d}, and the images of these exceptional curves form a configuration of n lines in P^{d}. The subject of our research is the correspondence between the configurations of n generic points in a real projective plan...
Hydrodynamic type integrable equations on a segment and a half-line
Guerses, Metin; Habibullin, Ismagil; Zheltukhın, Kostyantyn (AIP Publishing, 2008-10-01)
The concept of integrable boundary conditions is applied to hydrodynamic type systems. Examples of such boundary conditions for dispersionless Toda systems are obtained. The close relation of integrable boundary conditions with integrable reductions in multifield systems is observed. The problem of consistency of boundary conditions with the Hamiltonian formulation is discussed. Examples of Hamiltonian integrable hydrodynamic type systems on a segment and a semiline are presented. (C) 2008 American Institut...
