For a map with incomplete sky coverage, this separation is necessarily hampered by the presence of &#8220;ambiguous&#8221; modes which could be either E or B modes. I present an efficient pixel-space algorithm for removing the ambiguous modes and separating the map into &#8220;pure&#8221; E and B components. The method, which works for arbitrary geometries, does not involve generating a complete basis of such modes and scales the cube of the number of pixels on the boundary of the map.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love the feeling right after submitting a paper for publication.\u00a0 One just went off yesterday.
