Effective field theory of the two Higgs doublet model

We revisit the effective field theory of the two Higgs doublet model at tree level. The introduction of a novel basis in the UV theory allows us to derive matching coefficients in the effective description that resum important contributions from the Higgs ...

From Trees to Barcodes and Back Again: A Combinatorial, Probabilistic and Geometric Study of a Topological Inverse Problem

Adélie Eliane Garin

In this thesis, we investigate the inverse problem of trees and barcodes from a combinatorial, geometric, probabilistic and statistical point of view. Computing the persistent homology of a merge tree yields a barcode B. Reconstructing a tree from B invol ...

Tree root distribution modelling in different environmental conditions

David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Massimiliano Schwarz

The ability to predict the spatial distribution of tree root system variables (e.g., the Root system Area (RA), the maximum root diameter, the number of roots in diameter classes, the density of fine roots, etc.) under different environmental conditions is ...

Key factors determining the presence of Tree-related Microhabitats: A synthesis of potential factors at site, stand and tree scales, with perspectives for further research

Rita Bütler Sauvain

Tree-related microhabitats (TreMs) have been identified as key features for forest-dwelling taxa and are often employed as measures for biodiversity conservation in integrative forest management. However, managing forests to ensure an uninterrupted resourc ...

Genomic and metabolic adaptations of biofilms to ecological windows of opportunity in glacier-fed streams

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Matteo Tolosano, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki, Vincent Henri De Staercke, Michail Styllas, Martina Andrea Schön

In glacier-fed streams, ecological windows of opportunity allow complex microbial biofilms to develop and transiently form the basis of the food web, thereby controlling key ecosystem processes. Using metagenome-assembled genomes, we unravel strategies tha ...

Metric dimension of critical Galton–Watson trees and linear preferential attachment trees

Gergely Odor

The metric dimension of a graph G is the minimal size of a subset R of vertices of G that, upon reporting their graph distance from a distinguished (source) vertex v⋆, enable unique identification of the source vertex v⋆ among all possible vertices of G. I ...

Scaling Similarity Joins over Tree-Structured Data

Given a large collection of tree-structured objects (e.g., XML documents), the similarity join finds the pairs of objects that are similar to each other, based on a similarity threshold and a tree edit distance measure. The state-of-the-art similarity join ...

Distributed Rate Allocation in Inter-Session Network Coding

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos, Eirina Bourtsoulatze

In this work, we propose a distributed rate allocation algorithm that minimizes the average decoding delay for multimedia clients in inter-session network coding systems. We consider a scenario where the users are organized in a mesh network and each user ...

BF-Tree: Approximate Tree Indexing

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis

The increasing volume of time-based generated data and the shift in storage technologies suggest that we might need to reconsider indexing. Several workloads - like social and service monitoring - often include attributes with implicit clustering because o ...

Higgs-Dilaton cosmology: Universality versus criticality

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Javier Rubio

The Higgs-Dilaton model is able to produce an early inflationary expansion followed by a dark energy dominated era responsible for the late time acceleration of the Universe. At tree level, the model predicts a small tensor-to-scalar ratio (0.0021

Online indexing and distributed querying model-view sensor data in the cloud

Karl Aberer, Tian Guo, Hao Zhuang

As various kinds of sensors penetrate our daily life (e.g., sensor networks for environmental monitoring, GPS for localization and navigation), the efficient management of massive amount of sensor data becomes increasingly important at present. Many sensor ...

Accelerating Spatial Range Queries

Anastasia Ailamaki, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed, Alexandros Stougiannis

It is increasingly common for domain scientists to use computational tools to build and simulate spatial models of the phenomena they are studying. The spatial models they build are more and more detailed as well as dense and are consequently difficult to ...

OLTP in Wonderland -- Where do cache misses come from in major OLTP components?

Anastasia Ailamaki, Pinar Tözün

For several decades, online transaction processing has been one of the main applications that drives innovations in the data management ecosystem, and in turn the database and computer architecture communities. Despite the novel approaches from industry an ...

Model-View Sensor Data Management in the Cloud

Karl Aberer, Tian Guo

Infinite nature of sensor data poses a serious challenge for query processing even in a cloud infrastructure. Model-based sensor data approximation reduces the amount of data for query processing, but all modeled segments need to be scanned, in the worst c ...

Scalable and Dynamically Balanced Shared-Everything OLTP with Physiological Partitioning

Anastasia Ailamaki, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Pinar Tözün, Ippokratis Pandis

Scaling the performance of shared-everything transaction processing systems to highly-parallel multicore hardware remains a challenge for database system designers. Recent proposals alleviate locking and logging bottlenecks in the system, leaving page latc ...

Programming with Specifications

Philippe Paul Henri Suter

This thesis explores the use of specifications for the construction of correct programs. We go beyond their standard use as run-time assertions, and present algorithms, techniques and implementations for the tasks of 1) program verification, 2) declarative ...

A metric for phylogenetic trees based on matching

Bernard Moret, Yu Lin, Vaibhav Rajan

Comparing two or more phylogenetic trees is a fundamental task in computational biology. The simplest outcome of such a comparison is a pairwise measure of similarity, dissimilarity, or distance. A large number of such measures have been proposed, but so t ...
