We consider a large class of quasilinear second order elliptic systems of the form - ∑α,β=1N aαβ(x,u(x)),∇u(x))∂2αβu(x) + b(x,u(x),∇u(x)) = 0, where x varies in an unbounded domain Ω of the Euclidean space RN and u = (u1,...,um) is a vector of functi ...
We study the constraints on models with extra dimensions arising from local anomaly cancellation. We consider a five-dimensional field theory with a U(I) gauge field and a charged fermion, compactified on the orbifold S-1/(Z(2) x Z(2)'). We show that, even ...
We review the mechanisms of supersymmetry breaking mediation that occur in sequestered models, where the visible and the hidden sectors are separated by an extra dimension and communicate only via gravitational interactions. By locality, soft breaking term ...
This thesis presents a recent research on the problem of environmental modeling for both localization and map building for wheel-based, differential driven, fully autonomous and self-contained mobile robots. The robots behave in an indoor office environmen ...
The anomaly cancellation condition of the Standard Model may be unnatural in theories with extra dimensions as an anomaly of a low-energy 4-dimensional theory can be canceled by an inflow from a bulk. This inflow may give rise to an observable effect at lo ...
We give an overview of the issue of anomalies in field theories with extra dimensions. We start by reviewing in a pedagogical way the computation of the standard perturbative gauge and gravitational anomalies on noncompact spaces, using Fujikawa's approach ...
In this paper the metric and topological paradigms are integrated in a hybrid system for both localization and map building. A global topological map connects local metric maps, allowing a compact environment model, which does not require global metric con ...
In this paper a new localization approach combining the metric and topological paradigm is presented. The main idea is to connect local metric maps by means of a global topological map. This allows a compact environment model which does not require global ...
In this paper an approach combining the metric and topological paradigm for simultaneous localization and map building is presented. The main idea is to connect local metric maps by means of a global topological map. This allows a compact environment model ...
We study 5-dimensional grand-unified theories in an orbifold geometry by the method of effective field theory: we match the low and high energy theories by integrating out at 1-loop the massive Kaluza-Klein states. In the supersymmetric case the radius dep ...
