We explore the Mellin representation of conformal correlation functions recently proposed by Mack. Examples in the AdS/CFT context reinforce the analogy between Mellin amplitudes and scattering amplitudes. We conjecture a simple formula relating the bulk s ...
We introduce a definition of the notion of compressibility for infinite deterministic and i.i.d. random sequences which is based on the asymptotic behavior of truncated subsequences. For this purpose, we use asymptotic results regarding the distribution of ...
The time-dependent behavior of sensor systems based on enzyme membranes is treated theoretically. The comparative treatment covers traditional potentiometric and amperometric enzyme electrodes as well as enzyme reactors. Theoretical solutions are derived b ...
The loop series provides a formal way to write down corrections to the Bethe entropy (and/or free energy) of graphical models. We provide methods to rigorously control such expansions for low-density parity-check codes used over a highly noisy binary symme ...
This paper considers vortex-induced vibrations of a cylinder in water streams for renewable energy production. We use an analytical model recently obtained by the authors from the asymptotic analysis of a coupled flow-cylinder system, and assess the abilit ...
Spectrum sensing is one of the enabling functionalities for cognitive radio systems to operate in the spectrum white space. To protect the primary incumbent users from interference, the cognitive radio is required to detect incumbent signals at very low si ...
In this paper, a direct data-driven approach is proposed to tune fixed-order controllers for unknown stable LTI plants in a mixed-sensitivity loop-shaping problem. The method requires a single set of input-output samples and it is based on simple convex op ...
The present paper investigates numerically and theoretically the axisymmetric vortex breakdown occurring in a constricted pipe of infinite extension, i.e., the transition from a smooth columnar state to a breakdown state exhibiting a recirculation bubble. ...
We discuss a model predictive control approach to trajectory tracking problems of constrained nonlinear con- tinuous time systems, where the reference trajectory is a priori known and asymptotically constant. The proposed NMPC scheme is able to explicitly ...
The semi-synchronous model is an important middle ground between the synchronous and the asynchronous models of distributed computing. In this model, processes can detect (timeout) when other processes fail. However, since detection is done by timing out, ...
