30 results for eigenmodes

Measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy are ideal experiments for discovering the non-trivial global topology of the universe. To evaluate the CMB anisotropy in multiply-connected compact cosmological models, one needs to compute the eigenmodes of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. Using the direct bou…

We present a simple algorithm for finding eigenmodes of the Laplacian for arbitrary compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We apply our algorithm to a sample of twelve manifolds and generate a list of the lowest eigenvalues. We also display a selection of eigenmodes taken from the Weeks space.

Cosmologists are taking a renewed interest in multiconnected spherical 3-manifolds (spherical spaceforms) as possible models for the physical universe. To understand the formation of large scale structures in such a universe, cosmologists express physical quantities, such as density fluctuations in the primordial plasm…

Dimensional reduction of high dimensional data can be achieved by keeping only the relevant eigenmodes after principal component analysis. However, differentiating relevant eigenmodes from the random noise eigenmodes is problematic. A new method based on the random matrix theory and a statistical goodness-of-fit test i…

Observational data hints at a finite universe, with spherical manifolds such as the Poincare dodecahedral space tentatively providing the best fit. Simulating the physics of a model universe requires knowing the eigenmodes of the Laplace operator on the space. The present article provides explicit polynomial eigenmodes…

Commissioned by MIT's in-house artist Jane Philbrick, we evolve an abstract 2D surface (resembling Marta Pan's 1961 "Sculpture Flottante I") under mean curvature, all the while calculating the eigenmodes and eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the resulting shapes. These are then synthesized into a sound-wa…

Four-dimensional quaternion-Kahler metrics, or equivalently self-dual Einstein spaces M, are known to be encoded locally into one real function h subject to Przanowski's Heavenly equation. We elucidate the relation between this description and the usual twistor description for quaternion-Kahler spaces. In particular, w…
