Tensor fields depending on other tensor fields are considered. The concept of extended tensor fields is introduced and the theory of differentiation for such fields is developed.
We construct the tensor hierarchies of generic, bosonic, 5- and 6-dimensional field theories. The construction of the tensor hierarchy starts with the introduction of two tensors: the embedding tensor which tells us which vector is used for…
Linear algebra is usually defined over a field such as the reals or complex numbers. It is possible to extend this to skew fields such as the quaternions. However, to the authors' knowledge there is no commonly accepted notation of linear…
A finite semifield is a division algebra over a finite field where multiplication is not necessarily associative. We consider here the complexity of the multiplication in small semifields and finite field extensions. For this operation, the…
We establish basic information about border rank algorithms for the matrix multiplication tensor and other tensors with symmetry. We prove that border rank algorithms for tensors with symmetry (such as matrix multiplication and the…
We algebraically compute all possible sectional curvature values for canonical algebraic curvature tensors, and use this result to give a method for constructing general sectional curvature bounds. We use a well-known method to…

We make a full classification of scalar monomials built of the Riemann curvature tensor up to the quadratic order and of the covariant derivatives of the scalar field up to the third order. From the point of view of the effective field…
Random tensors are the natural generalization of random matrices to higher order objects. They provide generating functions for random geometries and, assuming some familiarity with random matrix theory and quantum field theory, we discuss…
Twistor methods provide a powerful tool in the study of harmonic maps and harmonic morphisms. Indeed, their use has enabled us to produce a variety of examples of harmonic morphisms defined on 4-dimensional manifolds, and a complete…
Lichnerowicz's algebra of differential geometric operators acting on symmetric tensors can be obtained from generalized geodesic motion of an observer carrying a complex tangent vector. This relation is based upon quantizing the classical…
We develop classical globally supersymmetric theories. As much as possible, we treat various dimensions and various amounts of supersymmetry in a uniform manner. We discuss theories both in components and in superspace. Throughout we…
The space of differential operators acting on skewsymmetric tensor fields or on smooth forms of a smooth manifold are representations of its Lie algebra of vector fields. We compute the first cohomology spaces of these representations and…
A new approach to the algebraic classification of second order symmetric tensors in 5-dimensional space-times is presented. The possible Segre types for a symmetric two-tensor are found. A set of canonical forms for each Segre type is…
A definition for functions of multidimensional arrays is presented. The definition is valid for third-order tensors in the tensor t-product formalism, which regards third-order tensors as block circulant matrices. The tensor function…
New low-order $H(\textrm{div})$-conforming finite elements for symmetric tensors are constructed in arbitrary dimension. The space of shape functions is defined by enriching the symmetric quadratic polynomial space with the $(d+1)$-order…
