Unlike artificial light sources, which can be calibrated to meet a desired luminous effect regardless of latitude, climate, or time of day, daylight is a dynamic light source, which produces variable shadow patterns and fluctuating levels of brightness. Wh ...
We provide here some probabilistic interpretations of the generalized binomial distributions proposed by Gazeau et al. ["Generating functions for generalized binomial distributions," J. Math. Phys. 53, 103304 (2012)]. In the second part, we prove the "stro ...
We develop a formal framework for the analysis of security protocols in wireless networks. The framework captures characteristics necessary to reason about neighbor discovery protocols, such as the neighbor relation, device location, and message propagatio ...
We prove that solutions of a mildly regularized Perona–Malik equation converge, in a slow time scale, to solutions of the total variation flow. The convergence result is global-in-time, and holds true in any space dimension. The proof is based on the gener ...
Linearizability is a key design methodology for reasoning about implementations of concurrent abstract data types in both shared memory and message passing systems. It provides the illusion that operations execute sequentially and fault-free, despite the a ...
In this thesis, we try to treat the problem of oriented paths in n-chromatic digraphs. We first treat the case of antidirected paths in 5-chromatic digraphs, where we explain El-Sahili’s theorem and provide an elementary and shorter proof of it. We then tr ...
We develop a formal framework for the analysis of security protocols in wireless networks. The framework captures characteristics necessary to reason about neighbor discovery protocols, such as the neighbor relation, device location, and message propagatio ...
We describe a parameterized decision procedure that extends the decision procedure for functional recursive algebraic data types (trees) with the ability to specify and reason about abstractions of data structures. The abstract values are specified using r ...
Recently, Byrka, Grandoni, RothvoBand Sanita gave a 1.39 approximation for the Steiner tree problem, using a hypergraph-based linear programming relaxation. They also upper-bounded its integrality gap by 1.55. We describe a shorter proof of the same integr ...
This system description provides an overview of the MUNCH reasoner for sets and multisets. MUNCH takes as the input a formula in a logic that supports expressions about sets, multisets, and integers. Constraints over collections and integers are connected ...
