Stable classical groups and strongly torsion generated groups

Strongly torsion generated groups are those with a single normal generator, of arbitrary finite order. They are useful for realizing sequences of abelian groups as homology groups. Known examples include stable alternating groups and stable groups generate ...

Graph signature for self-reconfiguration planning of modules with symmetry

Auke Ijspeert, Milad Shafiee Ashtiani, Masoud Asadpour

In our previous works we had developed a framework for self-reconfiguration planning based on graph signature and graph edit-distance. The graph signature is a fast isomorphism test between different configurations and the graph edit-distance is a similari ...

A Scintillating Fiber Tracker With SiPM Readout

Tatsuya Nakada

We present a prototype for the first tracking detector consisting of 250 mu m thin scintillating fibers and silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) arrays. The detector has a modular design, each module consists of a mechanical support structure of 10 mm Rohacell f ...

Non-unitarisable representations and random forests

Nicolas Monod

We establish a connection between Dixmier's unitarisability problem and the expected degree of random forests on a group. As a consequence, a residually finite group is non-unitarisable if its first L2-Betti number is non-zero or if it is finitely generate ...

Integration of plasmonic trapping in a microfluidic environment

Olivier Martin, Sebastian Maerkl, Lina Huang

Near field generated by plasmonic structures has recently been proposed to trap small objects. We report the first integration of plasmonic trapping with microfluidics for lab-on-a-chip applications. A three-layer plasmo-microfluidic chip is used to demons ...

Chow-Witt groups and Grothendieck-Witt groups of regular schemes

Jean Fasel

Let A be a noetherian commutative Z[1/2]-algebra of Krull dimension d and let P be a projective A-module of rank d. We use derived Grothendieck-Witt groups and Euler classes to detect some obstructions for P to split off a free factor of rank one. If d

Separation and Duality in Locally L0-Convex Modules

Damir Filipovic

Motivated by financial applications, we study convex analysis for modules over the ordered ring L0 of random variables. We establish a module analogue of locally convex vector spaces, namely locally L0-convex modules. In this context, we prove hyperplane s ...

Investigations on modeling BRIR tails with filtered and coherence-matched noise

Christof Faller, Fritz Menzer

This paper investigates to which extent the tails of left and right binaural room impulse responses (BRIRs) can be replaced by white Gaussian noise that has been processed to have the same energy decay relief and interaural coherence as the original BRIRs’ ...

MPEG RVC Compliant Intra Prediction for AVC

Ihab Mostafa Amin Mohamed Amer, Karim Maarouf

Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) aims to provide a framework allowing a dynamic development, implementation and adoption of standardized video coding solutions with features of higher flexibility and re-usability. RVC-CAL is a dataflow oriented language w ...

A Fast On-Board Relative Positioning Module for Multi-Robot Systems

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh, Xavier Raemy, Riccardo Falconi, Cédric Favre

We present an on-board robotic module which can determine relative positions among miniature robots. The module uses high-frequency modulated infrared emissions to enable nearby robots to determine the range, bearing, and message of the sender with a rapid ...
