Breaking Blockchain Rationality with Out-of-Band Collusion

Bryan Alexander Ford, Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes, Louis-Henri Manuel Jakob Merino, Haoqian Zhang, Mahsa Bastankhah

Blockchain systems often rely on rationality assumptions for their security, expecting that nodes are motivated to maximize their profits. These systems thus design their protocols to incentivize nodes to execute the honest protocol but fail to consider ou ...

Rational Points in the Noether-Lefschetz Locus of Moduli Spaces of K3 Surfaces

Domenico Valloni

We give a characterization of rational points lying on the Noether-Lefschetz locus of moduli spaces of K3 surfaces by studying their lifting properties under some natural coverings of the ambient space. We then prove that the Bombieri-Lang conjecture impli ...

Assessing the Charge Carrier Dynamics at Hybrid Interfaces of Organic Photoanodes for Solar Fuels

Kevin Sivula, Yongpeng Liu, Han-Hee Cho, Alexander Wieczorek

Organic semiconductors (OSCs) have emerged as promising active layers for photoanodes to drive photoelectrochemical (PEC) oxidation reactions. Interfacing an OSC with an inorganic electron transport layer (ETL) is key to enabling both high performance and ...

Origin of the Activity Trend in the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Ethanol over VOx/CeO2

Oliver Kröcher, Rob Jeremiah G. Nuguid, Anna Zabilska, Olga Safonova

Supported vanadia (VOx) is a versatile catalyst for various redox processes where ceria-supported VOx have shown to be particularly active in the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of alcohols. In this work, we clarify the origin of the volcano-shaped ethanol ...

Reuse of Load-Bearing Timber Elements - Case Study of a Lookout Tower in Lausanne, Switzerland

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth, Edisson Xavier Estrella Arcos, Julius Natterer, Benoît Pascal Kälin

The construction industry is jeopardizing Earth’s environment; current mitigation efforts do not suffice; and additional sustainable strategies are required. One such strategy consists of reusing structural building elements over multiple service lives. In ...

Strong Heuristics for Named Entity Linking

Robert West, Akhil Arora, Andreas Oliver Spitz, Marko Culjak

Named entity linking (NEL) in news is a challenging endeavour due to the frequency of unseen and emerging entities, which necessitates the use of unsupervised or zero-shot methods. However, such methods tend to come with caveats, such as no integration of ...

Scalable Multi-agent Coordination and Resource Sharing

Panayiotis Danassis

A plethora of real world problems consist of a number of agents that interact, learn, cooperate, coordinate, and compete with others in ever more complex environments. Examples include autonomous vehicles, robotic agents, intelligent infrastructure, IoT de ...

Deformation capacity evaluation for flat slab seismic design

Aurelio Muttoni, Lorenzo Martinelli, António Manuel Pinho Ramos, Andri Setiawan

In flat-slab frames, which are typically designed as secondary seismic structures, the shear failure of the slab around the column (punching failure) is typically the governing failure mode which limits the deformation capacity and can potentially lead to ...

Designing Nudges for Self-directed Learning in a Data-rich Environment

Aditi Kothiyal

Nudges have been known to trigger behavior change for individuals in different contexts. In this study, we focus on designing nudges in the context of self-directed learning (SDL) of university students and aim to identify challenges and difficulties they ...

Monotonicity in the trip scheduling problem

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

The equilibrium of the archetypal morning commute problem with alpha -,B - gamma preferences has been shown to be unstable with various rational adjustment mechanisms, under both continuous and discrete day-to-day dynamics. It is not clear however whether ...

Stock-constrained truss design exploration through combinatorial equilibrium modeling

Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Reusing structural components has potential to reduce environmental impacts of building structures because it reduces new material use, energy consumption, and waste. When designing structures through reuse, available element characteristics become a desig ...

Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Learning

Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh

Many decision problems in science, engineering, and economics are affected by uncertainty, which is typically modeled by a random variable governed by an unknown probability distribution. For many practical applications, the probability distribution is onl ...

From Data to Decisions: Distributionally Robust Optimization is Optimal

Daniel Kuhn, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani

We study stochastic programs where the decision-maker cannot observe the distribution of the exogenous uncertainties but has access to a finite set of independent samples from this distribution. In this setting, the goal is to find a procedure that transfo ...

Courtesy As a Means to Coordinate

Boi Faltings, Panayiotis Danassis

We investigate the problem of multi-agent coordination under rationality constraints. Specifically, role allocation, task assignment, resource allocation, etc. Inspired by human behavior, we propose a framework (CA^3NONY) that enables fast convergence to e ...

Nonlinear piezoelectric vibration energy harvester with frequency-tuned impacting resonators for improving broadband performance at low frequencies

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Andres Felipe Vasquez Quintero, Robert Andrew Lockhart

The paper reports on a nonlinear frequency up-converting vibration energy harvester with enhanced broadband performance below 50 Hz, which is attained by leveraging vibro-impact interaction between two high-frequency piezoelectric generators and two low-fr ...

Data-Driven Inverse Optimization with Incomplete Information

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani, Grani Adiwena Hanasusanto

In data-driven inverse optimization an observer aims to learn the preferences of an agent who solves a parametric optimization problem depending on an exogenous signal. Thus, the observer seeks the agent's objective function that best explains a historical ...

Entrepreneurial Behavior: A Reconceptualization and Extension Based on Identity Theory

Marc Gruber

Research summaryEntrepreneurial behavior is core to our understanding of entrepreneurship. Yet, research progress is hindered because most studies adopt a traditional perspective of the construct that is embedded in economic rationality and focused on for- ...
