Apr 17, 2020 at 7:07 | comment | added | Benjamin Techer | Thanks @leomonsaingeon for you answer. I will try to make my question clearer. I fix $A$ (which is in my case the tensor of velocity gradient at point $(x,y,z)$ in the space), then I will look for a new frame, that consists of rotating the laboratory frame (to get a new frame $x*=Qx$), for which the new velocity gradient $B=QAQ^\top$ maximizes F. Practically, $F$ depends on $\phi$, $\theta$ and $\psi$ as variable and $A$ as a fixed matrix. | |
Apr 17, 2020 at 6:28 | comment | added | leo monsaingeon | Welcome to MO. You question is unclear and needs more explanations: Do you fix $A$ and look at $F=F(Q)$ as a function of $Q$? Or on the contrary do you fix $Q$ and look at $F=F(A)$ as a function defined on the whole vector space of matrices? In the first case your question makes no sense, because the set of rotation matrices is not convex. In the second case the answer is no, there is no concavity (take $Q=Id$ and look matrices with zero coefficients except $A_{12}$, in which case $F(A)=\frac 12 |A_{12}|^2$ is clearly not concave). I vote as off-topics, not research level. | |
