Abstract. The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge the ...
We provide a new comparison between hexagonal and orthogonal lattices, based on approximation theory. For each of the lattices, we select the “natural” spline basis function as generator for a shift-invariant function space; i.e., the tensor-product B-spli ...
The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge them for reas ...
We have compared the In distribution in InGaN quantum wells grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). The samples were studied by conventional and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The local ...
This thesis deals with the study of ideal lattices over number fields. Let K be a number field, which is assumed to be CM or totally real. An ideal lattice over K is a pair (I,b), where I is a fractional ideal of K and b : I × I → R is a symmetric positive ...
The dilation matrix associated with the three-dimensional (3-D) face-centered cubic (FCC) sublattice is often considered to be the natural 3-D extension of the two-dimensional (2-D) quincunx dilation matrix. However, we demonstrate that both dilation matri ...
We introduce new techniques to extend superrigidity theory beyond the scope of Lie or algebraic groups. We construct a cohomological invariant which accounts for, and generalizes, all known superrigidity results for actions on negatively curved spaces. Tog ...
For every hyperbolic group and more general hyperbolic graphs, we construct an equivariant ideal bicombing: this is a homological analogue of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We then construct a cohomological invariant which implies that s ...
This article presents optimization results on the MOVA undeniable signature scheme presented last year by Monnerat and Vaudenay at PKC'04 as well as its generalization proposed at Asiacrypt'04 which is based on a secret group homomorphism. The original MOV ...
We establish an arithmeticity vs. non-linearity alternative for irreducible lattices in suitable product groups, such as for instance products of topologically simple groups. This applies notably to (a large class of) Kac–Moody groups. The alternative reli ...
