Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We prove that the restricted nilpotent commuting variety C, that is the set of pairs of (n x n)-matrices (A, B) such that A(2) = B-2 = [A, B] = 0, is equidimensional. C can be identified with the ...
We aim at merging technologies from information technology, roomware, and robotics in order to design adaptive and intelligent furniture. This paper presents design principles for our modular robots, called Roombots, as future building blocks for furniture ...
This paper compares the speed and accuracy of two commercial packages based on the finite element method (FEM) for calculating the AC losses in high temperature superconductors (HTS). The softwares investigated in this paper were COMSOL Multiphysics and FL ...
Assurance of equity in student outcomes includes ensuring that module results are comparable within reasonable bounds. We present a procedure that first compares (and adjusts if necessary) module variances. Then, student results are individually normalised ...
This dissertation is concerned with the study of a new family of representations of finite groups, the endo-p-permutation modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisible by p and an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p, we ...
In this work we study the oriented Chow groups. These groups were defined by J. Barge et F. Morel in order to understand when a projective module P of top rank over a ring A has a free factor of rank one, i.e is isomorphic to Q ⊕ A. We show first that thes ...
This chapter describes tools and techniques that facilitate a gentle introduction to fascinating concepts in digital image processing from four leading universities. Equipped with informative visualizations and a user-friendly interfaces, these modules are ...
MHC class II (MHC-II) genes are regulated by an enhanceosome complex containing two gene-specific transcription factors, regulatory factor X complex (RFX) and CIITA. These factors assemble on a strictly conserved regulatory module (S-X-X2-Y) found immediat ...
This paper presents a microrobot concept for microhandling and micromanipulation, which has been developed within the framework of the EU founded project MiCRoN. The concept is explained along with some examples of realized modules for the robots and a num ...
If p is an odd prime, the group of endo-trivial modules for a metacyclic p-group is infinite cyclic generated by the Heller translate of the trivial module. The structure of the whole Dade group of endo-permutation modules can be deduced from this. Every k ...
