The behavior of the discrete spectrum of the Schr"odinger operator −\D−V, in quite a general setting, up to a large extent is determined by the behavior of the corresponding heat kernel P(t;x,y) as t→0 and t→∞. If this behavior is powe ...
One of the most celebrated results of the theory of distributed computing is the impossibility, in an asynchronous system of n processes that communicate through shared memory registers, to solve the set agreement problem where the processes need to deci ...
Chapter in the exhibition catalogue outlining the instigation and concept for the creation of the exhibition at the Biennale. The text focuses on the relation of urban development in Bahrain with the traditional and cultural connection to water and the sea ...
The success of 3DTV, as one of the emerging multimedia formats, will largely depend on the quality of experience it provides to the viewer in relation to traditional media. Therefore reliable methods for quality assessment are crucial in order to optimize ...
Gradient based microphone arrays, the horizontal sound field's plane wave decomposition, and the corresponding circular harmonics decomposition are reviewed. Further, a general relation between directivity patterns of the horizontal sound field gradients a ...
We study some relation between some geometrically defined classes of diffeomorphisms between manifolds and the Lq,p-cohomology of these manifolds. Some applications to vanishing and non vanishing results in Lq,p-cohomology are given. ...
We propose a scheme leading to a non-perturbative definition of lattice field theories which are scale-invariant on the quantum level. A key idea of the construction is the replacement of the lattice spacing by a propagating dynamical field - the dilaton. ...
This paper outlines the conclusion from an analysis of 18 large cave systems around the world, comprising more than 1500 km of conduits. The 3D geometry of complex cave systems have been analysed in relation to their geological context as well as their hyd ...
We study the integration of plasmonic traps with microfluidic channels. Plasmonic traps are optical traps that use the evanescent field generated by metallic nanostructures at their plasmon resonance to trap small objects. Contrary to conventional - far-fi ...

We run a comparative study of ecohydrological models of streamflow probability distributions (pdfs), p(Q), derived by Botter et al. (2007a, 2009), against field data gathered in different hydrological contexts. Streamflows measured in several catchments ac ...
