Conditional Flatness, Fiberwise Localizations, And Admissible Reflections

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 ...

Cohomology in singular blocks of parabolic category O

Jonathan Gruber

We determine the dimensions of Ext -groups between simple modules and dual generalized Verma modules in singular blocks of parabolic versions of category O for complex semisimple Lie algebras and affine Kac-Moody algebras. ...

Present design of the Steering Mirror Assembly (SMA) for ITER ECHUL

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Anastasia Xydou

In the ITER Tokamak, four Electron Cyclotron Heating Upper Launchers (ECHUL) are needed to control plasma instabilities at the rational surfaces, most importantly the q = 3/2 and q = 2/1 neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs). Each ECHUL is equipped with a set ...

Hopf algebras and Hopf-Galois extensions in infinity-categories

Aras Ergus

In this thesis, we study interactions between algebraic and coalgebraic structures in infinity-categories (more precisely, in the quasicategorical model of (infinity, 1)-categories). We define a notion of a Hopf algebra H in an E-2-monoidal infinity-catego ...

Serre-Tate theory for Calabi-Yau varieties

Maciej Emilian Zdanowicz

Classical Serre-Tate theory describes deformations of ordinary abelian varieties. It implies that every such variety has a canonical lift to characteristic zero and equips the base of its universal deformation with a Frobenius lifting and canonical multipl ...

Structure-Preserving Reduced Basis Methods For Poisson Systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini

We develop structure-preserving reduced basis methods for a large class of nondissipative problems by resorting to their formulation as Hamiltonian dynamical systems. With this perspective, the phase space is naturally endowed with a Poisson manifold struc ...

A Multimodal, Enveloping Soft Gripper: Shape Conformation, Bioinspired Adhesion, and Expansion-Driven Suction

Yufei Hao, Shantonu Biswas

A key challenge in robotics is to create efficient methods for grasping objects with diverse shapes, sizes, poses, and properties. Grasping with hand-like end effectors often requires careful selection of hand orientation and finger placement. Here, we pre ...

Colliders and conformal interfaces

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Antonin Tancrède Amaury Rousset, Marco Meineri

We set up a scattering experiment of matter against an impurity which separates two generic one-dimensional critical quantum systems. We compute the flux of reflected and transmitted energy, thus defining a precise measure of the transparency of the interf ...

Gradient expansion formalism for magnetogenesis in the kinetic coupling model

Oleksandr Sobol

In order to describe magnetogenesis during inflation in the kinetic coupling model, we utilize a gradient expansion which is based on the fact that only long-wavelength (superhorizon) modes undergo amplification. For this purpose, we introduce a set of fun ...

Beyond Wiener's Lemma: Nuclear Convolution Algebras and the Inversion of Digital Filters

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, John Paul Ward

A convolution algebra is a topological vector space X that is closed under the convolution operation. It is said to be inverse-closed if each element of X whose spectrum is bounded away from zero has a convolution inverse that is also part of the algebra. ...

On the Dynamics of Magnetic Swimmers in Stokes Flow

Pauline Marie Rüegg-Reymond

In the past decade, the engineering community has conceived, manufactured and tested micro-swimmers, i.e. microscopic devices which can be steered in their intended environment. Foreseen applications range from microsurgery and targeted drug delivery to en ...

Modelling the Syntax of North Indian Melodies with a Generalized Graph Grammar

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Christoph Finkensiep

Hierarchical models of music allow explanation of highly complex musical structure based on the general principle of recursive elaboration and a small set of orthogonal operations. Recent approaches to melodic elaboration have converged to a representation ...

Structure-Preserving Reduced Basis Methods for Hamiltonian Systems with a State-dependent Poisson Structure

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini

We develop structure-preserving reduced basis methods for a large class of nondissipative problems by resorting to their formulation as Hamiltonian dynamical systems. With this perspective, the phase space is naturally endowed with a Poisson manifold struc ...

A necessary and sufficient condition for induced model structures

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Magdalena Kedziorek

A common technique for producing a new model category structure is to lift the fibrations and weak equivalences of an existing model structure along a right adjoint. Formally dual but technically much harder is to lift the cofibrations and weak equivalence ...

Left-induced model structures and diagram categories

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Varvara Karpova, Magdalena Kedziorek

We prove existence results à la Jeff Smith for left-induced model category structures, of which the injective model structure on a diagram category is an important example. We further develop the notions of fibrant generation and Postnikov presentation fro ...

Arithmetic of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4 and vertical Brauer groups

Anthony Várilly Alvarado

We show that Brauer classes of a locally solvable degree 4 del Pezzo surface X are vertical for some projection away from a plane g : X -> P-1, i.e., that every Brauer class is obtained by pullback from an element of Br k(P-1). As a consequence, we prove t ...

Extensions of Lie-Rinehart algebras and cotangent bundle reduction

Tudor Ratiu

Let Q denote a smooth manifold acted upon smoothly by a Lie group G. The G-action lifts to an action on the total space TQ of the cotangent bundle of Q and hence on the standard symplectic Poisson algebra of smooth functions on TQ. The Poisson algebra of ...

Quotient method for stabilising a ball-on-a-wheel system – Experimental results

Dominique Bonvin, Philippe Müllhaupt, Killian Mark Daly

This paper extends the quotient method proposed in [1] and applies it to stabilize a “ball-on-a-wheel” system. The quotient method requires a diffeomorphism to obtain the normal form of the input vector field and uses canonical pro- jection to obtain the q ...

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. ...

Hermitian Forms over Algebras with Involution and Hermitian Categories

Daniel Arnold Moldovan

This thesis is concerned with the algebraic theory of hermitian forms. It is organized in two parts. The first, consisting of the first two chapters, deals with some descent properties of unimodular hermitian forms over central simple algebras with involut ...
