Sheer shear: weak lensing with one mode

3D data compression techniques can be used to determine the natural basis of radial eigenmodes that encode the maximum amount of information in a tomographic large-scale structure survey. We explore the potential of the Karhunen-Loève decomposition in reducing the dimensionality of the data vector f...
