Mean value theorems for collections of lattices with a prescribed group of symmetries

Nihar Prakash Gargava

Euclidean lattices are mathematical objects of increasing interest in the fields of cryptography and error-correcting codes. This doctoral thesis is a study on high-dimensional lattices with the motivation to understand how efficient they are in terms of b ...

Geometric Learning: Leveraging differential geometry for learning and control

Bernardo Fichera

In this thesis, we concentrate on advancing high-level behavioral control policies for robotic systems within the framework of Dynamical Systems (DS). Throughout the course of this research, a unifying thread weaving through diverse fields emerges, and tha ...

Seeking the new, learning from the unexpected: Computational models of surprise and novelty in the brain

Alireza Modirshanechi

Human babies have a natural desire to interact with new toys and objects, through which they learn how the world around them works, e.g., that glass shatters when dropped, but a rubber ball does not. When their predictions are proven incorrect, such as whe ...

Stronger serial dependence in the depth plane than the fronto-parallel plane between realistic objects: Evidence from virtual reality

David Pascucci

Visual estimates of stimulus features are systematically biased toward the features of previously encountered stimuli. Such serial dependencies have often been linked to how the brain maintains perceptual continuity. However, serial dependence has mostly b ...

Stabilized isogeometric discretizations on trimmed and union geometries, and weak imposition of the boundary conditions for the Darcy flow

Riccardo Puppi

Modern manufacturing engineering is based on a ``design-through-analysis'' workflow. According to this paradigm, a prototype is first designed with Computer-aided-design (CAD) software and then finalized by simulating its physical behavior, which usually i ...

Every Elementary Higher Topos Has A Natural Number Object

Nima Rasekh

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 ...

Learning (from) the Electron Density: Transferability, Conformational and Chemical Diversity

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Andrea Grisafi, Ksenia Briling

Machine-learning in quantum chemistry is currently booming, with reported applications spanning all molecular properties from simple atomization energies to complex mathematical objects such as the many-body wavefunction. Due to its central role in density ...

Monotonic Prefix Consistency in Distributed Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Jad Hamza

We study the issue of data consistency in distributed systems. Specifically, we consider a distributed system that replicates its data at multiple sites, which is prone to partitions, and which is assumed to be available (in the sense that queries are alwa ...

Geometric multiscale modeling of the cardiovascular system, between theory and practice

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

This review paper addresses the so called geometric multiscale approach for the numerical simulation of blood flow problems, from its origin (that we can collocate in the second half of '90s) to our days. By this approach the blood fluid-dynamics in the wh ...

Kan spectra, group spectra and twisting structures

Marc Stephan

Kan spectra provide a combinatorial model for the stable homotopy category. They were introduced by Dan Kan in 1963 under the name semisimplicial spectra. A Kan spectrum is similar to a pointed simplicial set, but it has simplices in negative degrees as we ...

5e{x+y}: Searching over Mathematical Content in Digital Libraries

Karl Aberer

This paper presents 5ex+y, a system that is able to extract, index and query mathematical content expressed as mathematical expressions, complementing the CERN Document Server (CDS). We present the most important aspects of its design, our approach to mode ...

Method and apparatus for multiple object tracking with k-shortest paths

Pascal Fua, François Fleuret

Trajectories of objects are estimated by determining the optimal solution(s) of a tracking model on the basis of an occupancy probability distribution. The occupancy probability distribution is the probability of presence of objects over a set of discrete ...

Invariant Higher-Order Variational Problems II

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

Motivated by applications in computational anatomy, we consider a second-order problem in the calculus of variations on object manifolds that are acted upon by Lie groups of smooth invertible transformations. This problem leads to solution curves known as ...

Mechanism-Based Approach for the Deployment of a Tensegrity-Ring Module

Ian Smith, Nizar Bel Hadj Ali, Landolf-Giosef-Anastasios Rhode-Barbarigos, René Motro, Costanza Schulin

Tensegrity structures are spatial systems composed of tension and compression components in a self-equilibrated prestress stable state. Although the concept is over 60 years old, few tensegrity-based structures have been used for engineering purposes. Tens ...

Deployment of a Pentagonal Hollow-Rope Tensegrity Module

Ian Smith, Nizar Bel Hadj Ali, Landolf-Giosef-Anastasios Rhode-Barbarigos, René Motro

Tensegrity structures are spatial reticulated structures composed of cables and struts. Tensegrity systems are good candidates for adaptive and deployable structures and thus have applications in various engineering fields. A “hollow-rope” tensegrity syste ...

Coupling matrix synthesis of dissipative microwave filters

Michael Mattes, Francisco Edén Sorolla Rosario

This study reviews the coupling matrix synthesis of dissipative microwave filters. It compares it to the synthesis of lossless transfer functions and shows that by correctly interpreting the mathematical operations in the lossless case, that is especially ...

Microscopy image resolution improvement by deconvolution of complex fields

Christian Depeursinge, Nicolas Pavillon, Muhammed Fatih Toy, Yann Jérôme Michel Pascal Cotte

Based on truncated inverse filtering, a theory for deconvolution of complex fields is studied. The validity of the theory is verified by comparing with experimental data from digital holographic microscopy (DHM) using a high-NA system (NA=0.95). Comparison ...

Order-adjoint monads and injective objects

Given a monad T on Set whose functor factors through the category of ordered sets with left adjoint maps, the category of Kleisli monoids is defined as the category of monoids in the hom-sets of the Kleisli category of T. The Eilenberg-Moore category of T ...
