Additive and geometric transversality of fractal sets in the integers

Florian Karl Richter

By juxtaposing ideas from fractal geometry and dynamical systems, Furstenberg proposed a series of conjectures in the late 1960's that explore the relationship between digit expansions with respect to multiplicatively independent bases. In this work, we in ...

FIBERED TORIC VARIETIES

Leonid Monin

A toric variety is called fibered if it can be represented as a total space of fibre bundle over toric base and with toric fiber. Fibered toric varieties form a special case of toric variety bundles. In this note we first give an introduction to the class ...

A smooth compactification of the space of genus two curves in projective space: via logarithmic geometry and Gorenstein curves

Francesca Carocci

We construct a modular desingularisation of (M) over bar (2,n)(P-r, d)(main). The geometry of Gorenstein singularities of genus two leads us to consider maps from prestable admissible covers; with this enhanced logarithmic structure, it is possible to desi ...

Revisiting Evaluation Metrics for Semantic Segmentation: Optimization and Evaluation of Fine-grained Intersection over Union

Devis Tuia

Semantic segmentation datasets often exhibit two types of imbalance: \textit{class imbalance}, where some classes appear more frequently than others and \textit{size imbalance}, where some objects occupy more pixels than others. This causes traditional eva ...

On rationally connected varieties over C1 fields of characteristic 0

Marta Pieropan

We use birational geometry to show that the existence of rational points on proper rationally connected varieties over fields of characteristic 0 is a consequence of the existence of rational points on terminal Fano varieties. We discuss several consequenc ...

An automatized signal timing detection at signalized intersections with detailed vehicle trajectory data

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Emmanouil Barmpounakis, Jasso Espadaler Clapés

Signalized intersections are a fundamental part of urban networks. Their understanding is crucial to identify congestion patterns, queues, delays, and safety issues in local and network level. In this work, we analyze multimodal vehicle trajectories and pr ...

Large-scale traffic signal control and multimodal network design

Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Traffic congestion constitutes one of the most frequent, yet challenging, problems to address in the urban space. Caused by the concentration of population, whose mobility needs surpass the serving capacity of urban networks, congestion cannot be resolved ...

Cross-sections of line configurations in R-3 and (d-2)-flat configurations in R-d

Andres Jacinto Ruiz Vargas

We consider sets L = {l(1),..., l(n)} of n labeled lines in general position in R-3, and study the order types of point sets {p(1),..., p(n)} that stem from the intersections of the lines in L with (directed) planes Pi, not parallel to any line of L, that ...

Extending the Scope of the Density Overlap Region Indicator

Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay

In this thesis, original applications of the Density Overlap Region Indicator (DORI), a density dependent bonding descriptor capable of simultaneously capturing covalent and noncovalent interactions, are discussed. The use of scalar fields, such as DORI, w ...

Fluorescence Quenching in BODIPY Dyes: the Role of Intramolecular Interactions and Charge Transfer

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay

The fluorescence properties of the BODIPY dye and its two meso-substituted derivatives, tert-butyl- and phenyl-BODIPY, are rationalized. The non emissive behavior of the latter two are attributed to the energetically accessible low-lying conical intersecti ...

On the Richter-Thomassen Conjecture about Pairwise Intersecting Closed Curves

János Pach

A long-standing conjecture of Richter and Thomassen states that the total number of intersection points between any n simple closed Jordan curves in the plane, so that any pair of them intersect and no three curves pass through the same point, is at least ...

The Critical Shear Crack Theory for punching design: from a mechanical model to closed-form design expressions

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

The Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) is a consistent approach used for shear design of one- and two-way slabs failing in shear and punching shear respectively. The theory is based on a mechanical model allowing to determine the amount of shear force that ...

Coloring Intersection Graphs of Arc-Connected Sets in the Plane

Bartosz Maria Walczak, Michal Lason

A family of sets in the plane is simple if the intersection of any subfamily is arc-connected, and it is pierced by a line L if the intersection of any member with L is a nonempty segment. It is proved that the intersection graphs of simple families of com ...

Micro-simulation Modeling of Coordination of Automated Guided Vehicles at Intersection

Denis Gillet, André-Gilles Dumont, Minh Hai Pham, Laleh Makarem

One of the challenges with autonomous vehicles is their performance at intersections. An alternative control method for the coordination of autonomous vehicles at intersections is shown. The proposed approach was grounded in multiple-robot coordination and ...

Tangencies between families of disjoint regions in the plane

Let C be a family of n convex bodies in the plane, which can be decomposed into k subfamilies of pairwise disjoint sets. It is shown that the number of tangencies between the members of C is at most O(kn), and that this bound cannot be improved. If we only ...
