Graph Signal Processing (GSP) addresses the analysis of data living on an irregular domain which can be modeled with a graph. This capability is of great interest for the study of brain connectomes. In this case, data lying on the nodes of the graph are co ...
Collective tunneling is a ubiquitous phenomenon in finite-size spin clusters that shows up in systems as diverse as molecular magnets or spin clusters adsorbed at surfaces. The basic problem we explore is to understand how small flipping terms can cooperat ...
Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are metabolic disorders influenced by lifestyle and genetic factors that are characterized by insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, a prominent site of glucose disposal. Numerous genetic variants have been associated with ...
The failure mode and strength of rock are often evaluated using failure criteria that (i) neglect the intermediate principal stress or (ii) examine conditions over a limited range ofmean stress. Review of the literature, however, shows that tests involving ...
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common disorders in the world. COPD is characterized by airflow obstruction, which is not fully reversible. Patients usually experience breathing-related symptoms with periods of a ...
The stress state of the subsurface has been shown to have an influence on a number of key processes. For example, the criticality of the stress state indicates how large stress changes need to be before a fault begins to slip, the mean effective stress con ...
We study asymmetric zero-range processes on Z with nearest-neighbour jumps and site disorder. The jump rate of particles is an arbitrary but bounded nondecreasing function of the number of particles. We prove quenched strong local equilibrium at subcritica ...
A survey of 1206 participants investigated determinants of positive environmental behaviors (PEBs) in Switzerland. Based on a principle component analysis on data for 23 different PEBs, three behavior types were distinguished: (i) public sphere PEBs with p ...
The reduction of aversive emotions by a conspecific’s presence—called social buffering—is a universal phenomenon in the mammalian world and a powerful form of human social emotion regulation. Animal and human studies on neural pathways underlying social bu ...
In Switzerland, surface waters are protected by the Swiss Water Protection Ordinance (OEaux) which stipulates that the water quality shall be such that: "the water, suspended matter and sediments contain no persistent synthetic substances to ensure the pro ...
