    An isotropic tensor function of a symmetric second order tensor in the cases of two and three dimensions is considered and a numerically well- conditioned expression for it is derived. The derivation starts with the expression of the tensor function in its spectral representation in terms of projection operators onto eigenspaces of the tensor. Then a rearrangement and recombination of terms gives the derived result. The corresponding expression is also stated for \(n\) dimensions.
