In this thesis, we investigate the inverse problem of trees and barcodes from a combinatorial, geometric, probabilistic and statistical point of view.Computing the persistent homology of a merge tree yields a barcode B. Reconstructing a tree from B invol ...
We give a direct construction of a specific central idempotent in the endomorphism algebra of a finite lattice T. This idempotent is associated with all possible sublattices of T which are totally ordered. A generalization is considered in a conjectural fa ...
An open problem in polarization theory is to determine the binary operations that always lead to polarization (in the general multilevel sense) when they are used in Arikan style constructions. This paper, which is presented in two parts, solves this probl ...

The fractional Laplacian (-Delta)(gamma/2) commutes with the primary coordination transformations in the Euclidean space Rd: dilation, translation and rotation, and has tight link to splines, fractals and stable Levy processes. For 0 < gamma < d, its inver ...
Many modern block ciphers use maximum distance separable (MDS) matrices as the main part of their diffusion layers. In this paper, we propose a new class of diffusion layers constructed from several rounds of Feistel-like structures whose round functions a ...
The Mobius inversion formula of the free monogenic inverse semigroup is represented by the Mobius function for Cauchy product. In this short note we describe a Dirichlet analogue of this inverse semigroup. ...
Methods for direct data-driven tuning of the parameters of precompensators for LPV systems are developed. Since the commutativity property is not always satisfied for LPV systems, previously proposed methods for LTI systems that use this property cannot be ...
