In this paper, we present the fabrication of on-chip piezoelectric acoustic actuation for 2D materials. Acoustic actuation is achieved at device level through patterning of aluminum nitride (AlN) thin film at wafer scale. Two piezoelectric stacks consistin ...
In a number of cases the minimal polynomials of the images of unipotent elements of non-prime order in irreducible representations of the exceptional algebraic groups in good characteristics are found. It is proved that if p > 5 for a group of type E-8 and ...
Given a topological modular functor V in the sense of Walker, we construct vector bundles Z (lambda) over bar, over (M) over bar (g,n) whose Chern characters define semi-simple cohomological field theories. This construction depends on a determinati ...
We develop an elementary algebraic method to compute the center of the principal block of a small quantum group associated with a complex semisimple Lie algebra at a root of unity. The cases of sl(3) and sl(4) are computed explicitly. This allows us to for ...
Let G be a simply connected simple linear algebraic group of exceptional Lie type over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p >= 0, and let u is an element of G be a non-identity unipotent element. Let phi be a non-trivial irreducible represen ...
The hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to formate is an intriguing reaction from both an environmental and an energy perspective, primarily due to the prospective uses of the product as a platform chemical in numerous applications such as an organic hydrogen ...
Let G be a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p≥0. In this thesis, we investigate closed connected reductive subgroups X<G that contain a given distinguished unipotent element u of G. Our ...
The book contains extended versions of seven short lecture courses given during a semester programme on Local Representation Theory and Simple Groups, held at the Centre Interfacultaire Bernoulli of the EPF Lausanne. These courses focused on modular repres ...
We establish obstructions for groups to act by homeomorphisms on dendrites. For instance, lattices in higher rank simple Lie groups will always fix a point or a pair. The same holds for irreducible lattices in products of connected groups. Further results ...
Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p >= 0, let H be a proper closed subgroup of G and let V be a nontrivial irreducible KG-module, which is p-restricted, tensor indecomposable and rational. Assume that ...
