What is the name of this tensor?

A matrix M is usually called a hollow matrix if all of its diagonal elements are zero: $$ M_{pp} = 0, \quad \forall \: p. $$ We can generalize this to an $n$-way tensor T, such that: $$ T_{p_1 \cdots …

Analytical decomposed form of a specific traceless symmetric tensor

Thanks to Zach Teitler for the comment that this tensor is associated with elementary symmetric polynomial (ESP). I searched for the decomposed form of ESP and found a paper (Power Sum Decompositions …

Analytical decomposed form of a specific traceless symmetric tensor

Assume an m-way tensor $\mathcal{Z}$. $\mathcal{Z}_{p_1 p_2 ... p_m} = 0$ if any different indices match and $\mathcal{Z}_{p_1 p_2 ... p_m} = 1$ otherwise. It is a symmetric tensor. Now if it is 2- …
