Recovering the 3D shape of a nonrigid surface from a single viewpoint is known to be both ambiguous and challenging. Resolving the ambiguities typically requires prior knowledge about the most likely deformations that the surface may undergo. It often take ...
We consider two basic problems of algebraic topology: the extension problem and the computation of higher homotopy groups, from the point of view of computability and computational complexity. The extension problem is the following: Given topological space ...
Ahlswede et al. in the seminal paper [1] have shown that in data transfer over networks, processing the data at the nodes can significantly improve the throughput. As proved by Li et al. in [2], even with a simple type of operation, namely linear operation ...
This article approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. The algebraic structure of a ring of databases is constructed and extended to form a powerful aggregate query calculus. The query calculus inherits the key prop ...
We study (connected) reductive subgroups G of a reductive algebraic group H, where G contains a regular unipotent element of H. The main result states that G cannot lie in a proper parabolic subgroup of H. This result is new even in the classical case H = ...
We present a new programmable neighborhood mechanism for hardware implemented Kohonen self-organizing maps (SOMs) with three different map topologies realized on a single chip. The proposed circuit comes as a fully parallel and asynchronous architecture. T ...

In this work a numerical strategy to address the solution of the blood flow in one-dimensional arterial networks through a topology-based decomposition is presented. Such decomposition results in the local analysis of the blood flow in simple arterial segm ...
We establish model category structures on algebras and modules over operads and non-Sigma operads in monoidal model categories The results have applications in algebraic topology, stable homotopy theory, and homological algebra (C) 2009 Elsevier B V All ri ...
Reaction systems are typically represented by first-principles models that describe the evolution of the states (typically concentrations, volume and temperature) by means of conservation equations of differential nature and constitutive equations of algeb ...
We produce a rigid triple of classes in the algebraic group G(2) in characteristic 5, and use it to show that the finite groups G(2)(5(n)) are not (2, 5, 5)-generated. ...
