  8. AEC, BEC, CEC • Define the AEC of a tensor as the zero set of all vectors such that the contraction with respect to the first index is a singular matrix. • Similar for BEC and CEC. • We can get this by doing the vector multiplication, taking the determinant of the result, then setting it equal to zero. • The result is a homogeneous polynomial whose degree and number of variables are both the same as the size of the tensor.

  15. Quadratic Map This is a tensor multiplication with two vectors!!

  16. The Curvature Ellipse

  17. Tangents from AEC F(x, y) AEC maps to the tangent lines of the curvature ellipse.

  18. Tangents from AEC F(x, y) AEC maps to the tangent lines of the curvature ellipse.

  19. Tangents from AEC F(x, y) AEC maps to the tangent lines of the curvature ellipse.

  23. Drawing the AEC

  24. Cubic Curves

  25. Normalizing the Curve Two AEC are equivalent if there is a change of coordinates that takes one form into another. Goal: Find a representative of each equivalence class.

  26. Normal Form Theorem:Any nondegenerate 3x3x3 tensor is equivalent to a tensor of the form: for some c and d. The AEC for this tensor is:

  27. AEC = BEC = CEC Theorem: For any nondegenerate 3x3x3 tensor, the AEC, BEC, and CEC are all projectively equivalent. This is far from obvious:

  28. AEC=BEC=CEC
