$ \ell_1 $-regularized linear inverse problems are frequently used in signal processing, image analysis, and statistics. The correct choice of the regularization parameter $ t \in \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0} $ is a delicate issue. Instead of…

This article is expository in nature, outlining some of the many still incompletely understood features of higher spin field theory. We are mainly considering higher spin gauge fields in their own right as free-standing theoretical…

The so-called Takahashi's \emph{Inversion Theorem}, the reconstruction of a given spinor based on its bilinear covariants, are re-examined, considering alternative dual structures. In contrast to the classical results, where the Dirac dual…
