The multivariate Serre conjecture ring

It is well-known that for any integral domain R, the Serre conjecture ring R(X), i.e., the localization of the univariate polynomial ring R[X] at monic polynomials, is a Bezout domain of Krull dimension

Covers Of Rational Double Points In Mixed Characteristic

Javier Alonso Carvajal Rojas

We further the classification of rational surface singularities. Suppose (S, n, k) is a 3-dimensional strictly Henselian regular local ring of mixed characteristic (0, p > 5). We classify functions f for which S/(f) has an isolated rational singularity at ...

Review of control strategies for lower-limb exoskeletons to assist gait

Mohamed Bouri, Auke Ijspeert, Romain Pierre François Baud, Ali Reza Manzoori

Background Many lower-limb exoskeletons have been developed to assist gait, exhibiting a large range of control methods. The goal of this paper is to review and classify these control strategies, that determine how these devices interact with the user. Met ...

HovercRaft: Achieving Scalability and Fault-tolerance for microsecond-scale Datacenter Services

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias

Cloud platform services must simultaneously be scalable, meet low tail latency service-level objectives, and be resilient to a combination of software, hardware, and network failures. Replication plays a fundamental role in meeting both the scalability and ...

Stability of standing waves for a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with delta potentials

François Samer Genoud

In this paper, we study local well-posedness and orbital stability of standing waves for a singularly perturbed one-dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. We first establish local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem by a fixed point argument. Unlike ...

Near-Optimal Finite-Length Scaling for Polar Codes Over Large Alphabets

Rüdiger Urbanke, Henry Pfister

For any prime power q, Mori and Tanaka introduced a family of q-ary polar codes based on the q x q Reed-Solomon polarization kernels. For transmission over a q-ary erasure channel, they also derived a closed-form recursion for the erasure probability of ea ...

The algebra of essential relations on a finite set

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

Let X be a finite set and let k be a commutative ring. We consider the k-algebra of the monoid of all relations on X, modulo the ideal generated by the relations factorizing through a set of cardinality strictly smaller than Card(X), called inessential rel ...

The representation theory of finite sets and correspondences

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We investigate correspondence functors, namely the functors from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commutative ring. They have various specific properties which do not hold for other types of functor ...

Fixed Point Property For Universal Lattice On Schatten Classes

Masato Mimura

The special linear group G = SLn(Z[x(1), ... , x(k)]) (n at least 3 and k finite) is called the universal lattice. Let n be at least 4, and p be any real number in (1, infinity). The main result is the following: any finite index subgroup of G has the fixe ...

Incommensurate crystallography without additional dimensions

Philippe Kocian

It is shown that the Euclidean group of translations, when treated as a Lie group, generates translations not only in Euclidean space but on any space, curved or not. Translations are then not necessarily vectors (straight lines); they can be any curve com ...

Irregular Product Codes

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Masoud Alipour Babaei, Ghid Maatouk, Seyed Omid Etesami

We introduce irregular product codes, a class of codes where each codeword is represented by a matrix and the entries in each row (column) of the matrix come from a component row (column) code. As opposed to standard product codes, we do not require that a ...

Generalized Universality

Rachid Guerraoui

State machine replication reduces distributed to centralized computing. Any sequential service, modeled by a state machine, can be replicated over any number of processes and made highly available to all of them. At the heart of this fundamental reduction ...

A Dirichlet Analogue Of The Free Monogenic Inverse Semigroup Via Mobius Inversion

George Stoianov

The Mobius inversion formula of the free monogenic inverse semigroup is represented by the Mobius function for Cauchy product. In this short note we describe a Dirichlet analogue of this inverse semigroup. ...

Annihilating Polynomials for Quadratic Forms

Klaas-Tido Rühl

Let K be a field with char(K) ≠ 2. The Witt-Grothendieck ring (K) and the Witt ring W (K) of K are both quotients of the group ring ℤ[𝓖(K)], where 𝓖(K) := K*/(K*)2 is the square class group of K. Since ℤ[𝓖(K)] is integra ...

Annihilating Ideals Of Quadratic Forms Over Local And Global Fields

We study annihilating polynomials and annihilating ideals for elements of Witt rings for groups of exponent 2. With the help of these results and certain calculations involving the Clifford invariant, we are able to give full sets of generators for the ann ...

Minimum euclidien des ordres maximaux dans les algèbres centrales à division

Jérôme Chaubert

This work concerns the study of Euclidean minima of maximal orders in central simple algebras. In the first part, we define the concept of ideal lattice in the non-commutative case. Let A be a semi-simple algebra over Q. An ideal lattice over A is a triple ...

Algebraic methods for channel coding

Frédérique Oggier

This work is dedicated to developing algebraic methods for channel coding. Its goal is to show that in different contexts, namely single-antenna Rayleigh fading channels, coherent and non-coherent MIMO channels, algebraic techniques can provide useful tool ...

Réseaux idéaux sur des corps CM et des corps totalement réels

Ivan Suarez Atias

This thesis deals with the study of ideal lattices over number fields. Let K be a number field, which is assumed to be CM or totally real. An ideal lattice over K is a pair (I,b), where I is a fractional ideal of K and b : I × I → R is a symmetric positive ...

On Average Throughput Benefits and Alphabet Size in Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

e analyze a special class of configurations with h sources and N receivers to demonstrate the throughput benefits of network coding and deterministic code design. We show that the throughput benefits network coding offers can increase proportionally to \sq ...
