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 ...
Among anonymity systems, DC-nets have long held attraction for their resistance to traffic analysis attacks, but practical implementations remain vulnerable to internal disruption or “jamming” attacks, which require time-consuming detection procedures to r ...
We consider a method to efficiently evaluate in a real-time context an output based on the numerical solution of a partial differential equation depending on a large number of parameters. We state a result allowing to improve the computational performance ...
This thesis deals with the study of G-forms and particulary the trace form of a G-Galois algebra. Let k be a field of characteristic not two. Let G be a finite group and L a G-Galois algebra over k. We define the trace form qL by qL(x, y) = TrL/k(xy) for a ...
This paper presents an alternative approach to the deterministic global optimisation of problems with ordinary differential equations in the constraints. The algorithm uses a spatial branch-and-bound approach and a novel procedure to build convex underesti ...
Let G be a finite group and let k be a field. Our purpose is to investigate the simple modules for the double Burnside ring kB(G,G). It turns out that they are evaluations at G of simple biset functors. For a fixed finite group H, we introduce a suitable b ...
In this paper, we discuss a framework for the distributed compression of vector sources, based on our previous work on distributed transform coding. In particular, our goal is to develop a strategy of first applying a suitable distributed Karhunen-Loeve tr ...
