Well-posedness Issues For the Half-Wave Maps Equation With Hyperbolic And Spherical Targets

Yang Liu

This thesis is a study of the global well-posedness of the Cauchy problems for half-wave maps from the Minkowski space of dimension n+1 to the 2-dimensional sphere and the hyperbolic plane. The work is mainly based on the results from Krieger-Sire 17' in ...

Bounded and unbounded cohomology of homeomorphism and diffeomorphism groups

Nicolas Monod

We determine the bounded cohomology of the group of homeomorphisms of certain low-dimensional manifolds. In particular, for the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle and of the closed 2-disc, it is isomorphic to the polynomial ring g ...

Spectral Hypergraph Sparsifiers of Nearly Linear Size

Mikhail Kapralov, Jakab Tardos

Graph sparsification has been studied extensively over the past two decades, culminating in spectral sparsifiers of optimal size (up to constant factors). Spectral hypergraph sparsification is a natural analogue of this problem, for which optimal bounds on ...

Parametric Estimation For Functional Autoregressive Processes On The Sphere

Alessia Caponera

The aim of this paper is to define a nonlinear least squares estimator for the spectral parameters of a spherical autoregressive process of order 1 in a parametric setting. Furthermore, we investigate on its asymptotic properties, such as weak consistency ...

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 ...

Experimental investigation of surface roughness effect on a free-flight sphere in a Ludwieg tube

Seong-Hyeon Park

Understanding the aerodynamic coefficients of meteoroid fragments, deorbiting space debris, or launch vehicle stages through atmospheric reentry is essential for ground risk assessments. In high enthalpy flow, surface roughness is a crucial factor affectin ...

Voss surfaces: A design space for geodesic gridshells

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Nicolas Robin Montagne

The design of envelopes with complex geometries often leads to construction challenges. To overcome these difficulties, resorting to discrete differential geometry proved successful by establishing close links between mesh properties and the existence of g ...

SPHARMA approximations for stationary functional time series on the sphere

Alessia Caponera

In this paper, we focus on isotropic and stationary sphere-cross-time random fields. We first introduce the class of spherical functional autoregressive-moving average processes (SPHARMA), which extend in a natural way the spherical functional autoregressi ...

Topological Linear System Identification via Moderate Deviations Theory

Daniel Kuhn, Wouter Jongeneel, Tobias Sutter

Two dynamical systems are topologically equivalent when their phase-portraits can be morphed into each other by a homeomorphic coordinate transformation on the state space. The induced equivalence classes capture qualitative properties such as stability or ...

Cryogenic CMOS Circuits and Systems: Challenges and Opportunities in Designing the Electronic Interface for Quantum Processors

Edoardo Charbon

Quantum computing could potentially offer faster solutions for some of today's classically intractable problems using quantum processors as computational support for quantum algorithms [1]. Quantum processors, in the most frequent embodiment, comprise an a ...

Single-projection reconstruction technique for positioning monodisperse spheres in 3D with a divergent x-ray beam

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

The measurement of the position of single-sized spheres in 3D from a single, divergent, radiographic projection is addressed in the present study with the development of a novel method. Generally speaking, the location of the shadow cast by a single sphere ...

Quantum yield and brightness

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Brightness has different meaning in different contexts and some of these are reviewed. The scientific definition of brightness does not represent our perception. The current definition is that from the IUPAC Gold Book and is mainly restricted to solutions. ...

Geometric ergodicity for some space-time max-stable Markov chains

Erwan Fabrice Koch

Max-stable processes are central models for spatial extremes. In this paper, we focus on some space-time max-stable models introduced in Embrechts et al. (2016). The processes considered induce discrete-time Markov chains taking values in the space of cont ...

Are Photonic Nanojets Achromatic?

Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim, Michail Symeonidis

In this work we study the evolution of the photonic nanojet (PNJ) phenomenon as the ratio of the sphere's diameter over the illumination wavelength changes, for microspheres with diameters from 2 mu m to 100 mu m. We measure the focal point position by usi ...

Normal-Based Interpolating Subdivision For The Geometric Representation Of Deformable Models

Michaël Unser, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We review the normal-based interpolating subdivision scheme proposed in [1]. We show that it allows the user to exactly represent circles/spheres whenever suitable initial data are provided, and we also prove that it enjoys the property of similarity invar ...

On the diametric compression strength test of brittle spherical particles

Andreas Mortensen, Goran Zagar, Václav Pejchal

Diametric compression testing can be used to measure the hoop strength of spherical particles if one uses platens whose deformation behaviour is tailored in a way that allows the particles to sink sufficiently far into the platens before particle fracture ...

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 ...

When droplets deform, break up and propel microswimmers

Giacomo Gallino

This thesis investigates the motion and breakup of droplets in low-Reynolds-number flows, focusing on two aspects. In the first part, we study the breakup of droplets in subcritical flow conditions, when there exists a linearly stable solution for the drop ...

Incidences between points and generalized spheres over finite fields and related problems

Let F-q be a finite field of q elements, where q is a large odd prime power and Q = a(1)x(1)(c1) + ..... + a(d)x(d)(cd) is an element of F-q[x(1) ,...,x(d)], where 2
