Self-healing sensors have the potential to increase the lifespan of existing sensing tech-nologies, especially in soft robotic and wearable applications. Furthermore, they could bestow additional functionality to the sensing system because of their self-he ...
Let X be a complex projective K3 surface and let T-X be its transcendental lattice; the characteristic polynomials of isometries of T-X induced by automorphisms of X are powers of cyclotomic polynomials. Which powers of cyclotomic polynomials occur? The ai ...
