The invention relates to a solid immersion lens (SIL) for a microscope, comprising a lens system with a predetermined numerical aperture. The refractive index of the material of the solid immersion lens is selected in such a way that the numerical aperture ...
Without any claim of presenting scientific results, this article will present some reflections on different attitudes we can find in citizens towards their city. We categorised here two different behaviours that we connected to an active or passive role in ...
In this PhD thesis, we construct an explicit algebraic model over Z of the cochains of the free loop space of a 1-connected space X. We start from an enriched Adams-Hilton model of X, which can be obtained relatively easily when X is the realisation of a s ...
Requiring all nodes of a wireless multihop network to be connected is expensive and results in a poor scalability of properties such as transport capacity. We show however that it is no longer the case if we only slightly loosen the connectivity requiremen ...
The traditional node percolation map of directed networks is reanalyzed in terms of edges. In the percolated phase, edges can mainly organize into five distinct giant connected components, interfaces bridging the communication of nodes in the strongly conn ...
We describe particular paths in the flip-graph of regular triangulations in any dimension. It is shown that any pair of regular triangulations is connected by a path along which none of their common faces are destroyed. As a consequence, we obtain the conn ...
This work is concerned with the global continuation for solutions (λ,u,ξ) ∈ R × C1{0}([0,∞), RN) × Rk of the following system of ordinary differential equations: where F: [0,∞) × RN × U × J → RN and φ: U × J → X1, for some open sets J ⊂ R and U ⊂ Rk, and w ...
Mobile communication devices, such as mobile phones and networked personal digital assistants (PDAs), allow users to be constantly connected and communicate anywhere and at any time, often resulting in personal and private communication taking place in pub ...

A numerical model for the three-dimensional simulation of liquid-gas flows with free surfaces is presented. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are assumed to hold in the liquid domain. In the gas domain, the velocity is disregarded, the pressure is ...
We consider a simple network, where a source and destination node are connected with a line of erasure channels. It is well known that in order to achieve the min-cut capacity, the intermediate nodes are required to process the information. We propose codi ...
