Multiplicity-free Representations of Algebraic Groups

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over K. We address the problem of classifying triples (G, H, V ), where H is a proper connected subgroup of G, and V is a finitedimensional ir ...

Correlating long-term performance and aging behaviour of building integrated PV modules

Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Ebrar Özkalay

Because building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules are fully integrated into a building envelope, the back of the module can be exposed to little or no ventilation, resulting in increased operating temperatures. As the temperature increases, the perfo ...

Correspondence functors and duality

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. By means of a suitably defined duality, new correspondence functors are constructed, having remarkable p ...

Generic direct summands of tensor products for simple algebraic groups and quantum groups at roots of unity

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be either a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic l>0 or a quantum group at an l-th root of unity. The category Rep(G) of finite-dimensional G-modules is non-semisimple. In this thesis, we develop new tech ...

On complete reducibility of tensor products of simple modules over simple algebraic groups

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an al- gebraically closed ﬁeld k of characteristic p > 0. The category of rationalG-modules is not semisimple. We consider the question of when the tensorproduct of two simple G-modules L(λ) and L(μ) ...

Hardware-Software Co-Design of an RPC Processor

Arash Pourhabibi Zarandi

The booming popularity of online services has led to a major evolution in the way these services are built and deployed. To cope with such online data-intensive services, service providers deploy several massive-scale datacenters, also referred to as wareh ...

The algebra of Boolean matrices, correspondence functors, and simplicity

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We determine the dimension of every simple module for the algebra of the monoid of all relations on a finite set (i.e. Boolean matrices). This is in fact the same question as the determination of the dimension of every evaluation of a simple correspondence ...

Optimized Module Packaging for Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells and Increased PID Resistance

Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Luca Gnocchi, Fabiana Lisco

Recent studies showed that silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells can be prone to potential induced degradation (PID) when encapsulated with a low volume resistivity ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). We perform PID test in humid conditions (85°C/85% RH) on g ...

On the lifting of the Dade group

Jacques Thévenaz, Caroline Lassueur

For the group of endo-permutation modules of a finite p-group, there is a surjective reduction homomorphism from a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic 0 to its residue field of characteristic p. We prove that this reduction map always has a ...

Characteristic classes as complete obstructions

Martina Rovelli

In the first part of this paper, we propose a uniform interpretation of characteristic classes as obstructions to the reduction of the structure group and to the existence of an equivariant extension of a certain homomorphism defined a priori only on a sin ...

Design and Validation of a Modular One-To-Many Actuator for a Soft Wearable Exosuit

Silvestro Micera, Michele Xiloyannis

The size, weight, and power consumption of soft wearable robots rapidly scale with their number of active degrees of freedom. While various underactuation strategies have been proposed, most of them impose hard constrains on the kinetics and kinematics of ...

A new class of protein biomarkers based on subcellular distribution: application to a mouse liver cancer model

Kristina Schoonjans, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Evan Graehl Williams, Pan Xu, Amir Banaei Esfahani, Chen Li, Ruedi Aebersold

To-date, most proteomic studies aimed at discovering tissue-based cancer biomarkers have compared the quantity of selected proteins between case and control groups. However, proteins generally function in association with other proteins to form modules loc ...

On finitely generated modules over quasi-Euclidean rings

Luc Guyot

Let R be a unital commutative ring, and let M be an R-module that is generated by k elements but not less. Let be the subgroup of generated by the elementary matrices. In this paper we study the action of by matrix multiplication on the set of unimodular r ...

Optical Design of Multisource High-Flux Solar Simulators

Sophia Haussener

We present a systematic approach to the design of a set of high-flux solar simulators (HFSSs) for solar thermal, thermochemical, and materials research. The generic simulator concept consists of an array of identical radiation modules arranged in concentri ...

The homotopy theory of coalgebras over a comonad

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

Let K be a comonad on a model category M. We provide conditions under which the associated category of K-coalgebras admits a model category structure such that the forgetful functor to M creates both cofibrations and weak equivalences. We provide concrete ...

Torsion-free endotrivial modules

Jacques Thévenaz, Nadia Mazza

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 investigate the torsion-free part TF(G) of the group T(G) and look for generators o ...

Equivariant K-theory of GKM bundles

Silvia Sabatini

Given a fiber bundle of GKM spaces, pi: M -> B, we analyze the structure of the equivariant K-ring of M as a module over the equivariant K-ring of B by translating the fiber bundle, pi, into a fiber bundle of GKM graphs and constructing, by combinatorial t ...

Let W be a vector space over an algebraically closed field k. Let H be a quasisimple group of Lie type of characteristic p not equal char(k) acting irreducibly on W. Suppose also that G is a classical group with natural module W, chosen minimally with resp ...

Relative Projectivity and Relative Endotrivial Modules

Caroline Lassueur

This dissertation is concerned with modular representation theory of finite groups, and more precisely, with the study of classes of representations, which we shall term relative endotrivial modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisi ...
