Correspondence functors and duality

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. By means of a suitably defined duality, new correspondence functors are constructed, having remarkable p ...

The algebra of Boolean matrices, correspondence functors, and simplicity

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We determine the dimension of every simple module for the algebra of the monoid of all relations on a finite set (i.e. Boolean matrices). This is in fact the same question as the determination of the dimension of every evaluation of a simple correspondence ...

From the Principle of Inertia to the Death Drive: The Influence of the Second Law of Thermodynamics on the Freudian Theory of the Psychical Apparatus

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Philippe Ansermet

In the Freudian theory of the psychical apparatus, the introduction from the 1920s onward of the second drive dualism appears as a major turning point. The idea of a "death drive," first expressed in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (Freud, 1920), is generall ...

Functional penalised basis pursuit on spheres

Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

In this work, we propose a unified theoretical and practical spherical approximation framework for functional inverse problems on the hypersphere. More specifically, we consider recovering spherical fields directly in the continuous domain using functional ...

Correspondence functors and lattices

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. A main tool for this study is the construction of a correspondence functor associated to any finite latt ...

Simple and projective correspondence functors

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. We determine exactly which simple correspondence functors are projective. We also determine which simple ...

Delineation of the Critical Parameters of Salt Catalysts in the N-Formylation of Amines with CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Dmitry Vasilyev, Martin Hulla

N-formylation of amines with CO2 is base-catalyzed and studies of salt catalysts reveal that the reaction is efficiently catalyzed by "free" floating anions of high basicity, as represented in the cover image. More information can be found in the Full Pape ...

Tensor product of correspondence functors

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

As part of the study of correspondence functors, the present paper investigates their tensor product and proves some of its main properties. In particular, the correspondence functor associated to a finite lattice has the structure of a commutative algebra ...

Correspondence functors and finiteness conditions

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We investigate the representation theory of finite sets. The correspondence functors are the functors from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. They have various specific properties wh ...

Relative Homological Algebra Via Truncations

Jérôme Scherer

To do homological algebra with unbounded chain complexes one needs to first find a way of constructing resolutions. Spal-tenstein solved this problem for chain complexes of R-modules by truncating further and further to the left, resolving the pieces, and ...

A Looping-Delooping Adjunction For Topological Spaces

Martina Rovelli

Every principal G-bundle over X is classified up to equivalence by a homotopy class X -> BG, where BG is the classifying space of G. On the other hand, for every nice topological space X Milnor constructed a strict model of its loop space (Omega) over tild ...

Representing groups against all odds

Maxime Gheysens

We investigate how probability tools can be useful to study representations of non-amenable groups. A suitable notion of "probabilistic subgroup" is proposed for locally compact groups, and is valuable to induction of representations. Nonamenable groups ad ...

Learning-based subsampling

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic, Yen-Huan Li, Luca Baldassarre, Baran Gözcü

The present invention concerns a method of sampling a test signal. The method comprises: acquiring (21) training signals sampled at a plurality of sampling locations; running (23) an optimization procedure for determining an index set of n indices, represe ...

Direct Conversion of Mono- and Polysaccharides into 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Ionic-Liquid Mixtures

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Sviatlana Siankevich

Platform chemicals are usually derived from petrochemical feedstocks. A sustainable alternative commences with lignocellulosic biomass, a renewable feedstock, but one that is highly challenging to process. Ionic liquids (ILs) are able to solubilize biomass ...

On the Use of Shape-Constrained Splines for Biokinetic Process Modelling

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

Identification of mathematical models is an important task for the design and the optimization of biokinetic processes. Monod or Tessier growth-rate models are often chosen by default, although these models are not able to represent the dynamics of all bac ...

The representation theory of finite sets and correspondences

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We investigate correspondence functors, namely the functors from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. They have various specific properties which do not hold for other types of functor ...

Sub-50-fs photoinduced spin crossover in [Fe(bpy)(3)](2+)

Majed Chergui, Gerald Auböck

It is known that excitation by visible light of the singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (1MLCT) states of Fe(II) complexes leads to population of the lowest-lying high-spin quintet state (T-5) with unity quantum yield. Here we investigate this so-calle ...

Dynamics of particles with anisotropic mass depending on time and position

Tudor Ratiu

Representations of solutions of equations describing the diffusion and quantum dynamics of particles in a Riemannian manifold are discussed under the assumption that the mass of particles is anisotropic and depends on both time and position. These equation ...

The homotopy theory of coalgebras over a comonad

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

Let K be a comonad on a model category M. We provide conditions under which the associated category of K-coalgebras admits a model category structure such that the forgetful functor to M creates both cofibrations and weak equivalences. We provide concrete ...

Homotopy completion and topological Quillen homology of structured ring spectra

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

Working in the context of symmetric spectra, we describe and study a homotopy completion tower for algebras and left modules over operads in the category of modules over a commutative ring spectrum (eg structured ring spectra). We prove a strong convergenc ...
