Abstract
In this contribution we show that it is possible to achieve an analytical binary tree representation for a tensor stemming from an underlying scalar field. As initial datastructure we use a binary tree. This is obtained by a hierarchical Tucker (HT) decomposition of a reference tensor. To achieve this, tensor matricizations are followed by their truncated singular value decompositions. Then we fit the left singular vectors at each node using a set of auxiliary basis functions. These are system-dependent orthogonal polynomials. We call this finite basis representation (FBR). The resulting HT-FBR expression can be reconstructed to grids of any density, within the same domain of definition, while keeping the error reasonably/physically small. This paves the way to the direct optimisation of these compact analytical binary tree structures.
