We present a theoretical and numerical framework to compute bifurcations of equilibria and stability of slender elastic rods. The 3D kinematics of the rod is treated in a geometrically exact way by parameterizing the position of the centerline and making u ...
We study annihilating polynomials and annihilating ideals for elements of Witt rings for groups of exponent 2. With the help of these results and certain calculations involving the Clifford invariant, we are able to give full sets of generators for the ann ...
Let K be a field with char(K) ≠ 2. The Witt-Grothendieck ring (K) and the Witt ring W (K) of K are both quotients of the group ring ℤ[𝓖(K)], where 𝓖(K) := K*/(K*)2 is the square class group of K. Since ℤ[𝓖(K)] is integra ...
Digital holographic interferometry (DHI) involves multi-directional illumination of an object to measure the in-plane and out-of plane displacements simultaneously. This results in multiple interference phases which have to be reliably estimated. The paper ...
A new approach stemming from the adiabatic-connection (AC) formalism is proposed to derive parameter-free double-hybrid (DH) exchange-correlation functionals. It is based on a quadratic form that models the integrand of the coupling parameter, whose compon ...
This thesis is concerned with the algebraic theory of hermitian forms. It is organized in two parts. The first, consisting of the first two chapters, deals with some descent properties of unimodular hermitian forms over central simple algebras with involut ...
We present a method for real-time 3D object instance detection that does not require a time-consuming training stage, and can handle untextured objects. At its core, our approach is a novel image representation for template matching designed to be robust t ...

We prove new equidistribution results for Galois orbits of Heegner points with respect to single reduction maps at inert primes. The arguments are based on two different techniques: primitive representations of integers by quadratic forms and distribution ...
The maximization of a positive (semi) definite complex quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard and achieved through exhaustive search when the form has full rank. However, if the form is rank-deficient, the optimal solution can be computed with on ...
Non–Invasive Brain–Computer Interfaces (BCI) convey a great potential in the field of stroke rehabilitation, where the continuous monitoring of mental tasks execution could support the positive effects of standard therapies. In this paper we combine time-f ...
