Comparing the Buckling Strength of Spherical Shells With Dimpled Versus Bumpy Defects

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Fani Derveni, Arefeh Abbasi

We investigate the effect of defect geometry in dictating the sensitivity of the critical buckling conditions of spherical shells under external pressure loading. Specifically, we perform a comparative study between shells containing dimpled (inward) versu ...

Well-posedness Issues For the Half-Wave Maps Equation With Hyperbolic And Spherical Targets

Yang Liu

This thesis is a study of the global well-posedness of the Cauchy problems for half-wave maps from the Minkowski space of dimension n+1 to the 2-dimensional sphere and the hyperbolic plane. The work is mainly based on the results from Krieger-Sire 17' in ...

A full characterization of invariant embeddability of unimodular planar graphs

Laszlo Marton Toth

When can a unimodular random planar graph be drawn in the Euclidean or the hyperbolic plane in a way that the distribution of the random drawing is isometry-invariant? This question was answered for one-ended unimodular graphs in Benjamini and Timar, using ...

Addressing fairness in classification with a model-agnostic multi-objective algorithm

Boi Faltings, Claudiu-Cristian Musat, Diego Matteo Antognini

The goal of fairness in classification is to learn a classifier that does not discriminate against groups of individuals based on sensitive attributes, such as race and gender. One approach to designing fair algorithms is to use relaxations of fairness not ...

Hyperbolicity as an obstruction to smoothability for one-dimensional actions

Yash Lodha

Ghys and Sergiescu proved in the 1980s that Thompson's group T, and hence F, admits actions by C-infinity diffeomorphisms of the circle. They proved that the standard actions of these groups are topologically conjugate to a group of C-infinity diffeomorphi ...

Heat flows on hyperbolic spaces

Marius Christopher Lemm

In this paper we develop new methods for studying the convergence problem for the heat flow on negatively curved spaces and prove that any quasiconformal map of the sphere Sn−1,n≥3, can be extended to the n-dimensional hyperbolic space such that the heat f ...

Concentration compactness for critical radial wave maps

Joachim Krieger, Elisabetta Chiodaroli

We consider radially symmetric, energy critical wave maps from (1 + 2)-dimensional Minkowski space into the unit sphere Sm\mathbf{S}^m, m≥1, and prove global regularity and scattering for classical smooth data of finite energy. In addition, we establish a ...

Laminated Connections for Structural Glass Applications

Manuel Santarsiero

The demand for architectural transparency has drastically increased structural use of glass in buildings and constructions. Connections between structural glass components represent one of the main critical aspects of glass engineering. In the last years, ...

Finite Element Method on Riemann Surfaces and Applications to the Laplacian Spectrum

Marc Maintrot

The objective of this PhD thesis is the approximate computation of the solutions of the Spectral Problem associated with the Laplace operator on a compact Riemann surface without boundaries. A Riemann surface can be seen as a gluing of portions of the Hype ...
