Independence number of generalized Petersen graphs

Determining the size of a maximum independent set of a graph G, denoted by alpha(G), is an NP-hard problem. Therefore many attempts are made to find upper and lower bounds, or exact values of alpha(G) for special classes of graphs. This paper is aimed towa ...

Le Monde, comme si vous y étiez. Les nourritures terrestres de l’Expo 2015 à Milan

Jacques Lévy

The topic of Milan’s World Expo 2015, “Feed the Planet” appears simultaneously mediocre, disputable, and complacent. Beyond this mixture of commerce, ecology and geopolitics, couldn’t we find there an indication that the very raison d’être of this kind of ...

High mobility over the life course: evidence from a longitudinal study in Europe

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Gil Viry

Commuting and travelling extensively for job reasons both helps and challenges people to balance competing demands of work and personal life. People do not have equal resources and possibilities to benefit from high mobility. Globalisation, labour flexibil ...

Unexpected Off-Targets and Paradoxical Pathway Activation by Kinase Inhibitors

Oliver Hantschel

Protein kinase inhibitors are an increasingly important class of targeted anticancer therapeutics. More than two dozen new drugs of this class have entered routine clinical use over the past decade. This review article focuses on how the development of met ...

On the criteria guiding the design of the upper electron-cyclotron launcher for ITER

Olivier Sauter, Timothy Goodman, Hartmut Zohm, Emanuele Poli

Electron cyclotron waves injected from an antenna located in the upper part of the vessel will be employed in ITER to control MHD instabilities, particularly neoclassical tearingmodes (NTMs). The derivation of the NTM stabilization criteria used up to now ...

On recent results in the modelling of neoclassical-tearing-mode stabilization via electron cyclotron current drive and their impact on the design of the upper EC launcher for ITER

Olivier Sauter, Timothy Goodman, Hartmut Zohm, Emanuele Poli

Electron cyclotron wave beams injected from a launcher placed in the upper part of the vessel will be used in ITER to control MHD instabilities, in particular neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs). Simplified NTM stabilization criteria have been used in the pa ...

Sparse Stochastic Processes and Discretization of Linear Inverse Problems

Michaël Unser, Emrah Bostan, Ulugbek Kamilov, Masih Nilchian

We present a novel statistically-based discretization paradigm and derive a class of maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimators for solving ill-conditioned linear inverse problems. We are guided by the theory of sparse stochastic processes, which specifies cont ...

Polarization and Spatial Coupling

Seyed Hamed Hassani

During the last two decades we have witnessed considerable activity in building bridges between the fields of information theory/communications, computer science, and statistical physics. This is due to the realization that many fundamental concepts and no ...

Polykatoikia: the popularisation of a status symbol

Olga Moatsou

In interwar Greece, the form of apartment building called the polykatoikia was promoted by architects as the modern, ground-breaking residential type. Back then, the polykatoikia was designed for and inhabited by the urban upper-class, while its architects ...
