Automorphisms of order 2p in binary self-dual extremal codes of length a multiple of 24

Martino Borello

Let C be a binary self-dual code with an automorphism g of order 2p, where p is an odd prime, such that gp is a fixed point free involution. If C is extremal of length a multiple of 24, all the involutions are fixed point free, except the Golay Code and ev ...

The Stationary Behaviour of Fluid Limits of Reversible Processes is Concentrated on Stationary Points

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

Assume that a stochastic process can be approximated, when some scale parameter gets large, by a fluid limit (also called mean field limit", or hydrodynamic limit"). A common practice, often called the ``fixed point approximation" consists in approxima ...

Fixed points and amenability in non-positive curvature

Nicolas Monod

Consider a proper cocompact CAT(0) space X. We give a complete algebraic characterisation of amenable groups of isometries of X. For amenable discrete subgroups, an even narrower description is derived, implying Q-linearity in the torsion-free case. We est ...

Fixed Point Property For Universal Lattice On Schatten Classes

Masato Mimura

The special linear group G = SLn(Z[x(1), ... , x(k)]) (n at least 3 and k finite) is called the universal lattice. Let n be at least 4, and p be any real number in (1, infinity). The main result is the following: any finite index subgroup of G has the fixe ...

New Techniques For Obtaining Schubert-Type Formulas For Hamiltonian Manifolds

Silvia Sabatini

In [GT], Goldin and Tolman extend some ideas from Schubert calculus to the more general setting of Hamiltonian torus actions on compact symplectic manifolds with isolated fixed points. (See also [Kn99,Kn08].) The main goal of this paper is to build on this ...

Distributed Pareto Optimization via Diffusion Strategies

Ali H. Sayed

We consider solving multi-objective optimization problems in a distributed manner by a network of cooperating and learning agents. The problem is equivalent to optimizing a global cost that is the sum of individual components. The optimizers of the individ ...

The School Bus Problem on Trees

Laura Sanità, Adrian Aloysius Bock

The School Bus Problem is an NP-hard vehicle routing problem in which the goal is to route buses that transport children to a school such that for each child, the distance travelled on the bus does not exceed the shortest distance from the child's home to ...

A fixed point theorem for L1 spaces

Nicolas Monod

We prove a fixed point theorem for a family of Banach spaces, notably for L^1. Applications include the optimal answer to the "derivation problem" for group algebras which originated in the 1960s. ...

Synthesis of uniform amplitude focused beam arrays

Juan Ramon Mosig, Anja Skrivervik, Benjamin Fuchs

An iterative procedure for the synthesis of uniform amplitude focused beam arrays is presented. Specifically, the goal is to optimize the locations of a fixed number of array elements with known excitations in order to synthesize narrow-beam low-sidelobe p ...
