THE COMPACT SUPPORT PROPERTY FOR SOLUTIONS TO THE STOCHASTIC PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH COLORED NOISE

We study the compact support property for solutions of the following stochastic partial differential equations: partial derivative tu=aijuxixj(t,x)+biuxi(t,x)+cu+h(t,x,u(t,x))F-center dot(t,x),(t,x)is an element of(0,infinity)xRd,where F-center dot is a sp ...

Propagation of singularities for the stochastic wave equation

Cheuk Yin Lee

We study the existence and propagation of singularities of the solution to a one-dimensional linear stochastic wave equation driven by an additive Gaussian noise that is white in time and colored in space. Our approach is based on a simultaneous law of the ...

The role of one-shot learning in #TheDress

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig

#TheDress is remarkable in two aspects. First, there is a bimodal split of the population in the perception of the dress's colors (white/gold vs. black/blue). Second, whereas interobserver variance is high, intra-observer variance is low, i. e., the percep ...

The role of one-shot learning in #TheDress

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer

The first amazing effect with #TheDress is that a large number of people perceive it as white and gold even though the true colors of the dress are black and blue. Such apparent changes in color are common in many illusions. What makes #TheDress even more ...

Role of APOBEC3F Gene Variation in HIV-1 Disease Progression and Pneumocystis Pneumonia

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Istvan Bartha

Human APOBEC3 cytidine deaminases are intrinsic resistance factors to HIV-1. However, HIV-1 encodes a viral infectivity factor (Vif) that degrades APOBEC3 proteins. In vitro APO-BEC3F (A3F) anti-HIV-1 activity is weaker than A3G but is partially resistant ...

Two ancient human genomes reveal Polynesian ancestry among the indigenous Botocudos of Brazil

Jeffrey David Jensen

Summary Understanding the peopling of the Americas remains an important and challenging question. Here, we present 14C dates, and morphological, isotopic and genomic sequence data from two human skulls from the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, part of one of ...

Influence of HLA-C Expression Level on HIV Control

Jacques Fellay

A variant upstream of human leukocyte antigen C (HLA-C) shows the most significant genome-wide effect on HIV control in European Americans and is also associated with the level of HLA-C expression. We characterized the differential cell surface expression ...

High b-value diffusion-weighted imaging: a sensitive method to reveal white matter differences in schizophrenia

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Pierre Marquet, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Leila Cammoun, Philipp Baumann

Over the last ten years, Diffusion-weighted Imaging (DWI) has become an important tool to investigate white matter (WM) anomalies in schizophrenia. Despite technological improvement and the exponential use of this technique, discrepancies remain and little ...

The effect of figural manipulations on brightness differences in the Benary cross

Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

The Benary cross is a classical demonstration showing that the perceived brightness of an area is not solely determined by its luminance, but also by the context in which it is embedded. Despite the fact that two identical grey triangles are flanked by an ...

Criteria for hitting probabilities with applications to systems of stochastic wave equations

Robert Dalang

We develop several results on hitting probabilities of random fields which highlight the role of the dimension of the parameter space. This yields upper and lower bounds in terms of Hausdorff measure and Bessel-Riesz capacity, respectively. We apply these ...
