Compute-and-Forward is an emerging technique to deal with interference. It allows the receiver to decode a suitably chosen integer linear combination of the transmitted messages. The integer coefficients should be adapted to the channel fading state. Optim ...
Building on advanced results on permutations, we show that it is possible to construct, for each irreducible representation of SU(N), an orthonormal basis labeled by the set of standard Young tableaux in which the matrix of the Heisenberg SU(N) model (the ...
The present paper is a summary and overview of results obtained in the author's thesis, "L-2-Betti Numbers of Locally Compact Groups", wherein the definition of L-2-Betti numbers for countable groups is extended to locally compact unimodular groups. In man ...
Consider bond percolation on the square lattice Z(2) where each edge is independently open with probability p : For some positive constants p(0) is an element of( 0; 1); epsilon(1) and epsilon(2); the following holds: if p > p(0); then with probability at ...
Let L be a lattice in . This paper provides two methods to obtain upper bounds on the number of points of L contained in a small sphere centered anywhere in . The first method is based on the observation that if the sphere is sufficiently small then the la ...
By ab initio many-body quantum chemistry calculations, we determine the strength of the symmetric anisotropy in the 5d5 j ~ 1/2 layered material Ba2IrO4. While the calculated anisotropic couplings come out in the range of a few meV, orders of magnitude str ...
Hexagonal lattice systems (e.g., triangular, honeycomb, kagome) possess a multidimensional irreducible representation corresponding to d(x2-y2) and d(xy) symmetry. Consequently, various unconventional phases that combine these d-wave representations can oc ...
The ClearPEM is a dedicated APD-based PET detector for high-resolution breast cancer imaging. The detector module is composed of 12 LYSO:Ce crystal matrices, each with 4 x 8 individual crystals (2 x 2 x 20 mm(3)) optically coupled on both ends to S8550 Ham ...
We investigate bi-component magnonic crystals consisting of periodic square lattices of Co nanodiscs embedded in Permalloy thin films. Micromagnetic simulations are used to analyse experimental data obtained with both all-electrical broadband spectroscopy ...
Channeling in bent crystals is becoming a reliable and efficient technique for collimating beams. At CERN, the installation of crystals in LHC is under scrutiny by the UA9 collaboration with the goal of investigating if they are a viable option for the col ...
