We here summarize some recent advances in the study of linear deterministic networks, recently proposed as approximations for wireless channels. This work started by extending the algebraic framework developed for multicasting over graphs in [1] to include ...
This work contains the study of the algebra called al-Badī‘ fī al-ḥisāb (literally : "the Wonderful on calculation"), written by the Persian mathematician Abu Bakr Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥusain al-Karaǧi (previously known as ...
Accuracy is critical if we are to trust simulation predictions. In settings such as fluid- structure interaction it is all the more important to obtain reliable results to understand, for example, the impact of pathologies on blood flows in the cardiovascula ...
We describe a decision procedure for a logic that supports 1) finite collections of elements (sets or multisets), 2) the cardinality operator, 3) a total order relation on elements, and 4) min and max operators on entire collections. Among the applications ...
We compare several languages for specifying Markovian population models such as queuing networks and chemical reaction networks. These languages -matrix descriptions, stochastic Petri nets, stoichiometric equations, stochastic process algebras, and guarded ...

One of the most fundamental objects in algebra is the group. There exist plenty of different groups. In the following article we consider some free abelian gorups, cyclic groups, free groups and fundamental groups as well as the products of groups and draw ...
Comparison between different formalisms and models is often by flattening structure and reducing them to behaviourally equivalent models e.g. automaton and Turing machine. This leads to a notion of expressiveness which is not adequate for component-based s ...
Deciding consistency of constraint networks is a fundamental problem in qualitative spatial and temporal reasoning. In this paper we introduce a divide-and-conquer method that recursively partitions a given problem into smaller sub-problems in deciding con ...
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials over a sufficiently large finite field, produces a common zero of the polynom ...
We study a collection of limit cycle oscillators with different frequencies interacting via networks. With static networks, our specific class of models produces a frequency learning mechanism leading the collection of oscillators to ultimately adopt a sin ...
