Propagation of singularities for the stochastic wave equation

We study the existence and propagation of singularities of the solution to a one-dimensional linear stochastic wave equation driven by an additive Gaussian noise that is white in time and colored in space. Our approach is based on a simultaneous law of the ...

Staggered flux state for rectangular-lattice spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Dmitri Ivanov, Bastien Dalla Piazza, Noore Elahi Shaik

We investigate the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a rectangular lattice, using the Gutzwiller projected variational wave function known as the staggered flux state. Using Monte Carlo techniques, the variational parameters and instantaneous spin-spin correlat ...

On the Size of K-Cross-Free Families

János Pach, Andrei Kupavskii, Istvan Tomon

Two subsets A,B of an n-element ground set X are said to be crossing, if none of the four sets AB, A\B, B\A and X(AB) are empty. It was conjectured by Karzanov and Lomonosov forty years ago that if a family F of subsets of X does not contain k pairwise cr ...

Four-Variable Expanders Over The Prime Fields

Adrian Claudiu Valculescu, Van Thang Pham, Seyed Hossein Nassajianmojarrad

Let F-p be a prime field of order p > 2, and let A be a set in F-p with very small size in terms of p. In this note, we show that the number of distinct cubic distances determined by points in A x A satisfies vertical bar(A - A)(3) + (A - A)(3 vertical bar ...

On some algebraic and extremal problems in discrete geometry

Seyed Hossein Nassajianmojarrad

In the present thesis, we delve into different extremal and algebraic problems arising from combinatorial geometry. Specifically, we consider the following problems. For any integer

n\ge 3

, we define

e(n)

to be the minimum positive integer such that an ...

Scaling description of non-local rheology

Matthieu Wyart, Jie Lin

The plastic flow of amorphous materials displays non-local effects, characterized by a cooperativity length scale xi. We argue that these effects enter in the more general description of surface phenomena near critical points. Using this approach, we obtai ...

Indicators of Evidence for Bioequivalence

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

Some equivalence tests are based on two one-sided tests, where in many applications the test statistics are approximately normal. We define and find evidence for equivalence in Z-tests and then one-and two-sample binomial tests as well as for t-tests. Mult ...

Sample and population exponents of generalized Taylor's law

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Amos Maritan

Taylor's law (TL) states that the variance V of a nonnegative random variable is a power function of its mean M; i.e., V = aM(b). TL has been verified extensively in ecology, where it applies to population abundance, physics, and other natural sciences. It ...

The role of fluctuations in ecological patterns and processes

Andrea Giometto

Fluctuations are ubiquitous in nature and are relevant for nearly every ecological process. The main sources of fluctuations in population abundances are demographic and environmental stochasticity, whose effect on local population dynamics, metapopulation ...

On The Exponent Of Distribution Of The Ternary Divisor Function

Philippe Michel

We show that the exponent of distribution of the ternary divisor function d(3) in arithmetic progressions to prime moduli is at least 1/2 + 1/46, improving results of Friedlander-Iwaniec and Heath-Brown. Furthermore, when averaging over a fixed residue cla ...

Kantorovich distance in the martingale CLT and quantitative homogenization of parabolic equations with random coefficients

Jean-Christophe Mourrat

The article begins with a quantitative version of the martingale central limit theorem, in terms of the Kantorovich distance. This result is then used in the study of the homogenization of discrete parabolic equations with random i.i.d. coefficients. For s ...

Multistability of twisted states in non-locally coupled Kuramoto-type models

Martin Hasler

A ring of N identical phase oscillators with interactions between L-nearest neighbors is considered, where L ranges from 1 (local coupling) to N/2 (global coupling). The coupling function is a simple sinusoid, as in the Kuramoto model, but with a minus sig ...

Efficient Fail-Stop Signatures from the Factoring Assumption

Khaled Ouafi, Atefeh Mashatan

In this paper, we revisit the construction of fail-stop signatures from the factoring assumption. These signatures were originally proposed to provide information-theoretic-based security against forgeries. In contrast to classical signature schemes, in wh ...

Time-Intensity Superposition for Photoinitiated Polymerization of Fluorinated and Hyperbranched Acrylate Nanocomposites

Yves Leterrier, Sara Dalle Vacche, Valérie Geiser

The validity of the time-intensity superposition principle for the photoinitiated polymerization of nanocomposites based on a monofunctional fluorinated acrylate and on a multifunctional hyperbranched polyether acrylate was investigated in this work. Maste ...

On the scaling of polar codes: II. The behavior of un-polarized channels

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani

We provide upper and lower bounds on the escape rate of the Bhattacharyya process corresponding to polar codes where transmission takes place over the the binary erasure channel. More precisely, we bound the exponent of the number of sub-channels whose Bha ...

Polar Codes: Characterization of Exponent, Bounds, and Constructions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Eren Sasoglu

Polar codes were recently introduced by Arikan. They achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete memoryless channels under a low complexity successive cancellation decoding strategy. The original polar code construction is closely rel ...

A general basis for quarter-power scaling in animals

Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan

It has been known for decades that the metabolic rate of animals scales with body mass with an exponent that is almost always 2/3, and often very close to 3/4. The 3/4 exponent emerges naturally from two models of resource distribution networks, radia ...

Universal scaling of optimal current distributions in transportation networks

Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan

Transportation networks are inevitably selected with reference to their global cost which depends on the strengths and the distribution of the embedded currents. We prove that optimal current distributions for a uniformly injected d-dimensional network exh ...

Explicit construction of self-dual integral normal bases for the square-root of the inverse different

Erik Jarl Pickett

Let K be a finite extension of Q(p), let L/K be a finite abelian Galois extension of odd degree and let D-L be the valuation ring of L. We define A(L/K) to be the unique fractional D-L-ideal with square equal to the inverse different of L/K. For p an odd p ...
