Goal: Structural brain graphs are conventionally limited to defining nodes as gray matter regions from an atlas, with edges reflecting the density of axonal projections between pairs of nodes. Here we explicitly model the entire set of voxels within a brai ...
We compute three-term semiclassical asymptotic expansions of counting functions and Riesz-means of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on spheres and hemispheres, for both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Specifically for Riesz-means we prove upper ...
Some implications of absolute geometries in the description of complex systems dynamics, at various scale resolutions are highlighted. In such context, by means of an analytic geometry of 2 x 2 matrices, a generalization of the standard velocities space in ...
The choice of the shape parameter highly effects the behaviour of radial basis function (RBF) approximations, as it needs to be selected to balance between the ill-conditioning of the interpolation matrix and high accuracy. In this paper, we demonstrate ho ...
We study a nearest neighbors ferromagnetic classical spin system on the square lattice in which the spin field is constrained to take values in a discretization of the unit circle consisting of N equi-spaced vectors, also known as the N-clock model. We fin ...
We confirm, for the primes up to 3000, the conjecture of Bourgain-Gamburd-Sarnak and Baragar on strong approximation for the Markoff surface modulo primes. For primes congruent to 3 modulo 4, we find data suggesting that some natural graphs constructed fro ...
We prove the abundance theorem for arithmetic klt threefold pairs whose closed point have residue characteristic greater than 5. As a consequence, we give a sufficient condition for the asymptotic invariance of plurigenera for certain families of singular ...
We consider fundamental algorithmic number theoretic problems and their relation to a class of block structured Integer Linear Programs (ILPs) called 2-stage stochastic. A 2-stage stochastic ILP is an integer program of the form min{c(T)x vertical bar Ax = ...
Intercurrent (post-treatment) events occur frequently in randomized trials, and investigators often express interest in treatment effects that suitably take account of these events. Contrasts that naively condition on intercurrent events do not have a stra ...
We investigate finite torsors over big opens of spectra of strongly F-regular germs that do not extend to torsors over the whole spectrum. Let (R, m, k, K) be a strongly F-regular k-germ where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We ...
In this paper we introduce and study the STREAMINGCYCLES problem, a random order streaming version of the Boolean Hidden Hypermatching problem that has been instrumental in streaming lower bounds over the past decade. In this problem the edges of a graph G ...
Covariance estimation is ubiquitous in functional data analysis. Yet, the case of functional observations over multidimensional domains introduces computational and statistical challenges, rendering the standard methods effectively inapplicable. To address ...
We prove that every elementary (infinity, 1)-topos has a natural number object. We achieve this by defining the loop space of the circle and showing that we can construct a natural number object out of it. Part of the proof involves showing that various de ...
In distributed optimization, parameter updates from the gradient computing node devices have to be aggregated in every iteration on the orchestrating server. When these updates are sent over an arbitrary commodity network, bandwidth and latency can be limi ...
This paper reports and investigates paradoxical simulation results of the bouncing ball system. Chaos-like motion of the bouncing ball system with intermittent chattering (Zeno behavior) is observed in simulations if the relative acceleration of the table ...
In this paper we describe a mathematical and numerical approach that combines physics-based simulated ground motion caused by earthquakes with fragility functions to model the structural damages induced to buildings. To simulate earthquake ground motion we ...
We propose and analyze a finite-difference discretization of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. It is known that if the discretization is made with respect to an underlying periodic lattice of spacing ffi, the discretized functionals Gamma-converge to the ...
Word embeddings have gained increasing popularity in the recent years due to the Word2vec library and its extension fastText that uses subword information. In this paper, we aim at improving the execution speed of fastText training on homogeneous multi- an ...
Isogeometric shape optimization has been now studied for over a decade. This contribution aims at compiling the key ingredients within this promising framework, with a particular attention to sensitivity analysis. Based on all the researches related to iso ...
Consider a linear elliptic PDE defined over a stochastic stochastic geometry a function of N random variables. In many application, quantify the uncertainty propagated to a quantity of interest (QoI) is an important problem. The random domain is split into ...
