Conditional Flatness, Fiberwise Localizations, And Admissible Reflections

Jérôme Scherer

We extend the group-theoretic notion of conditional flatness for a localization functor to any pointed category, and investigate it in the context of homological categories and of semi-abelian categories. In the presence of functorial fiberwise localizatio ...

Tunable biocomposite films fabricated using cellulose nanocrystals and additives for food packaging

Wenjing Sun

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are considered a prospective packaging material to partially replace petroleumbased plastics attributed to their renewability, sustainability, biodegradability, and desirable attributes including transparency, oxygen, and oil ...

Large charge, semiclassics and superfluids : from broken symmetries to conformal field theories

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

This thesis explores the application of semiclassical methods in the study of states with large quantum numbers for theories invariant under internal symmetries. In the first part of the thesis, we study zero-temperature superfluids. These provide a gener ...

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 ...

Non-Abelian chiral spin liquid in a quantum antiferromagnet revealed by an iPEPS study

Abelian and non-Abelian topological phases exhibiting protected chiral edge modes are ubiquitous in the realm of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect. Here, we investigate a spin-1 Hamiltonian on the square lattice which could, potentially, host the sp ...

The torsion group of endotrivial modules

Jacques Thévenaz

Let G be a finite group and let T(G) be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial kG-modules, where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We determine, in terms of the structure of G, the kernel of the restriction map from T ...

Upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime power conductor

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

The aim of this paper is to give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime power conductor. In particular, these bounds imply Minkowski's conjecture for totally real number fields of conductor p(r), where p is an odd prime number ...

Simple biset functors and double Burnside ring

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

Let G be a finite group and let k be a field. Our purpose is to investigate the simple modules for the double Burnside ring kB(G,G). It turns out that they are evaluations at G of simple biset functors. For a fixed finite group H, we introduce a suitable b ...

Polarization Theorems for Arbitrary DMCs

Emre Telatar, Rajai Nasser

A polarization phenomenon in a special sense is shown for an arbitrary discrete memoryless channel (DMC) by imposing a quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The same technique is used to derive a polarization theorem for an arbitrary multiple access ...

Polar coding for arbitrary DMCs

Emre Telatar, Rajai Nasser

Polar codes are constructed for arbitrary channels by imposing an arbitrary quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The block error probability under successive cancellation decoding decays exponentially with the square root of the block length. It is ...

Limits Of Metabelian Groups

Luc Guyot

We describe the two-generated limits of abelian-by-(infinite cyclic) groups in the space of marked groups using number theoretic methods. We also discuss universal equivalence of these limits. ...

Homotopic Descent over Monoidal Model Categories

The starting point for this project is the article of Kathryn Hess [11]. In this article, a homotopic version of monadic descent is developed. In the classical setting, one constructs a category D(𝕋) of coalgebras in the Eilenberg-Moore category of ...

Catégories simpliciales enrichies et K-théorie de Waldhausen

Ilias Amrani

This thesis, which presents a new approach to the algebraic K-theory, is divided into two parts. The first one is devoted to the category of small simplicial categories. First, we construct a new model structure on sCat = [Δop,Cat] which is called the diag ...

Categorical Foundations for K-theory

Nicolas Mathieu Michel

K-Theory was originally defined by Grothendieck as a contravariant functor from a subcategory of schemes to abelian groups, known today as K0. The same kind of construction was then applied to other fields of mathematics, like spaces and (not necessarily c ...

On defect groups for generalized blocks of the symmetric group

In a paper of 2003, Kulshammer, Olsson and Robinson defined l-blocks for the symmetric groups, where l > 1 is an arbitrary integer. In this paper, we give a definition for the defect group of the principal l-block. We then check that, in the Abelian case, ...

A sectional characterization of the Dade group

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

Let k be a field of characteristic p, let P be a finite p-group, where p is an odd prime, and let D(P) be the Dade group of endo-permutation kP-modules. It is known that D(P) is detected via deflation-restriction by the family of all sections of P which ar ...

Foncteurs de Mackey projectifs

This work deals with the study of projective Mackey functors. Mackey functors are algebraic structures with operations which behave like induction, restriction and conjugation in group representation theory. These objects have properties which generalize m ...

Anomalous solitons

Matthias Schmid

Solitons are stable, non-singular solutions to the classical equations of motion of non-linear field theory. Their energy is localized and finite and their shape remains unaltered during propagation. For this reason they represent particle-like states in f ...
