Lax monoidal powerset-enriched monads yield a monoidal structure on the category of monoids in the Kleisli category of a monad. Exponentiable objects in this category are identified as those Kleisli monoids with algebraic structure. This result generalizes ...
Let X be a simplicial set. We construct a novel adjunction be- tween the categories RX of retractive spaces over X and ComodX+ of X+- comodules, then apply recent work on left-induced model category structures [5], [16] to establish the existence of a left ...
The aim of tool path planning is to maximize the efficiency against some given precision criteria. In practice, scallop height should be kept constant to avoid unnecessary cutting, while the tool path should be smooth enough to maintain a high feed rate. H ...
The new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from Planck provide the highest-quality full-sky view of the surface of last scattering available to date. This allows us to detect possible departures from the standard model of a globally homogen ...
We study the semilinear wave equation ∂t2ψ−Δψ=∣ψ∣p−1ψ for p>3 with radial data in three spatial dimensions. There exists an explicit solution which blows up at t=T>0 given by $\displaystyl ...
We study global behavior of radial solutions for the nonlinear wave equation with the focusing energy critical nonlinearity in three and five space dimensions. Assuming that the solution has energy at most slightly more than the ground states and gets away ...
Modern hardware is abundantly parallel and increasingly heterogeneous. The numerous processing cores have non-uniform access latencies to the main memory and processor caches, which causes variability in the communication costs. Unfortunately, database sys ...
We study the steady-state probability distribution of diffusion and consensus strategies that employ constant step-sizes to enable continuous adaptation and learning. We show that, in the small step-size regime, the estimation error at each agent approache ...
The overall vulnerability of the electrical grid appears to be increasing. This is because of different factors including the liberalization of the electrical market, the growth of demand and the appearance of new energy sources with a random production (s ...
As Avez showed (in 1970), the fundamental group of a compact Riemannian manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature has exponential growth if and only if it is not flat. After several generalizations from Gromov, Zimmer, Anderson, Burger and Shroeder, the ...
