On the Objectivity and Quasi-Objectivity of TSE and TRA

Abstract

We analyze two recently-introduced flow measured that are based on a single trajectory only: trajectory stretching exponent (TSE) to detect hyperbolic (stretching) behavior, and trajectory angular velocity (TRA) to detect elliptic (rotation) behavior. Haller et al. [2021] and Haller et al. [2022] introduced TSE, TRA as well as the concept of quasi-objectivity, and formulated theorems about the objectivity and quasi-objectivity of TSE and TRA. In this paper, we present two counter-examples showing that all theorems in Haller et al. [2021] and Haller et al. [2022] are incorrect.
