Detecting and counting single photons is useful in an increasingly large number of applications. Most applications require large formats, approaching and even far exceeding 1 megapixel. In this thesis, we look at the challenges of massively parallel photon ...
We develop a canonical framework for the study of the problem of registration of multiple point processes subjected to warping, known as the problem of separation of amplitude and phase variation. The amplitude variation of a real random function {Y(x) : x ...
The notion of circular security of pseudorandom functions (PRF) was introduced in Distance Bounding Protocols. So far, only a construction based on a random oracle model was proposed. Circular security stands between two new notions which we call Key Depen ...
Safety assessments of road bridges to braking events combine the braking force, acting along the longitudinal axis of the deck, with a vertical load that accounts for the vertical component of the traffic action. In modern design standards the vertical loa ...
We consider elliptic random walks in i.i.d. random environments on . The main goal of this paper is to study under which ellipticity conditions local trapping occurs. Our main result is to exhibit an ellipticity criterion for ballistic behavior which exten ...
In this paper, we introduce and analyze a new low-rank multilevel strategy for the solution of random diffusion problems. Using a standard stochastic collocation scheme, we first approximate the infinite dimensional random problem by a deterministic parame ...
Although stochastic programming problems were always believed to be computationally challenging, this perception has only recently received a theoretical justification by the seminal work of Dyer and Stougie (Mathematical Programming A, 106(3):423–432, 200 ...
We study the homogenization problem for the system of equations of dynamics of a mixture of liquid crystals with random structure. We consider a simplified form of the Ericksen-Leslie equations for an incompressible medium with inhomogeneous density with r ...
This thesis is devoted to the derivation of error estimates for partial differential equations with random input data, with a focus on a posteriori error estimates which are the basis for adaptive strategies. Such procedures aim at obtaining an approximati ...
We perform a general optimization of the parameters in the multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) discretization hierarchy based on uniform discretization methods with general approximation orders and computational costs. We optimize hierarchies with geometric and ...
