Where is M-theory in the space of scattering amplitudes?

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Andrea Guerrieri

We use the S-matrix bootstrap to carve out the space of unitary, analytic, crossing symmetric and supersymmetric graviton scattering amplitudes in nine, ten and eleven dimensions. We extend and improve the numerical methods of our previous work in ten dime ...

Perturbed Fourier uniqueness and interpolation results in higher dimensions

Martin Peter Stoller, Joao Pedro Gonçalves Ramos

We obtain new Fourier interpolation and uniqueness results in all dimensions, extending methods and results by the first author and M. Sousa [11] and the second author [12]. We show that the only Schwartz function which, together with its Fourier transform ...

Functional Inverse Problems on Spheres: Theory, Algorithms and Applications

Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Many scientific inquiries in natural sciences involve approximating a spherical field -namely a scalar quantity defined over a continuum of directions- from generalised samples of the latter (e.g. directional samples, local averages, etc). Such an approxim ...

Metropolitan Innovation Systems: Inquiry into the co-evolving relations between Industry, University and Government

Jiayun Shen

Innovation is crucial and decisive for the long-term development of a metropolitan region in the global economy. While firms certainly play a significant role in the development of specific innovation, the environment that nur-tures innovative firms and di ...

Graph Spectral Clustering of Convolution Artefacts in Radio Interferometric Images

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

The starting point for deconvolution methods in radioastronomy is an estimate of the sky intensity called a dirty image. These methods rely on the telescope point-spread function so as to remove artefacts which pollute it. In this work, we show that the in ...

Universal expression for the drag on a fluid sphere

David Andrew Barry

An expression was developed for prediction of drag coefficients for any spherical particle, drop or bubble in an infinite, homogeneous liquid. The formula reproduces the limiting cases for gas bubbles and solid spheres, as well as the exact Hadamard-Rybczy ...

Discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the spherical shallow water equations with applications to tsunami modeling and prediction

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Boris Bonev

We present a novel high-order discontinuous Galerkin discretization for the spherical shallow water equations, able to handle wetting/drying and non-conforming, curved meshes in a well-balanced manner. This requires a well-balanced discretization, that can ...

Partition function on spheres: How to use zeta function regularization

Alexander Monin

It is known that not all summation methods are linear and stable. Zeta function regularization is in general nonlinear. However, in some cases formal manipulations with zeta function regularization (assuming linearity of sums) lead to correct results. We c ...

Continuum percolation of polydisperse hyperspheres in infinite dimensions

Claudio Grimaldi

We analyze the critical connectivity of systems of penetrable d-dimensional spheres having size distributions in terms of weighed random geometrical graphs, in which vertex coordinates correspond to random positions of the sphere centers, and edges are for ...

Sup-norms of Eigenfunctions on Arithmetic Ellipsoids

Philippe Michel

Let B be a positive quaternion algebra, and let O subset of B be an Eichler order. There is associated, in a natural way, a variety X = X(O) the connected components of which are indexed by the ideal classes of O and are isomorphic to spheres. This variety ...

Data compression on the sphere

Yves Wiaux, Jason Douglas McEwen

Large data-sets defined on the sphere arise in many fields. In particular, recent and forthcoming observations of the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) made on the celestial sphere contain approximately three and fifty mega-pixels respe ...

Particle shape versus friction in granular jamming

Thomas Liebling, Lionel Pournin, Michel Tsukahara

What is the influence of sand grain shapes on an hourglass accuracy, and how does it affect the jamming probability? We study such a question using numerical simulation and our recently introduced spheropolyhedral particles. Spheropolyhedra constitute a ve ...

Counterexamples to a fiber theorem

We exhibit a counterexample to a fiber theorem stated by F. Fumagalli [J. Algebra 283 (2) (2005), 639-654] and show how it affects the rest of Fumagalli's paper. As a consequence, whether the poset A_p(G) is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres for an ...

Alignment and signed-intensity anomalies in WMAP data

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux

Significant alignment and signed-intensity anomalies of local features of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are detected on the three-year WMAP data, through a decomposition of the signal with steerable wavelets on the sphere. In addition to identifyin ...
