Towards a non-perturbative approach to the Hierarchy problem

Andrey Shkerin

In this report, based on [1], we suggest that the hierarchy between the Electroweak (EW) and the Planck scales can emerge due to a nonperturbative effect that relates low-energy and strong-gravity physics. In this mechanism, the EW scale results from an ex ...

Limitations of Partial Compaction: Towards Practical Bounds

Nachshon Cohen

Compaction of a managed heap is a costly operation to be avoided as much as possible in commercial runtimes. Instead, partial compaction is often used to defragment parts of the heap and avoid space blowup. Previous study of compaction limitation provided ...

A leap of faith in the realm of the possible.

Caroline Dionne

The architectural projects and building operations conducted over the past three decades by Patrick Bouchain and his collaborators challenge a series of assumptions regarding architecture’s authorship, its purpose and usage. Examined in light of Paul Ricoe ...

Supergravity with broken Lorentz invariance

Sergey Sibiryakov

The supersymmetric extension of the Lorentz violating Einstein-aether theory of gravity is considered. The most general Lagrangian of the linearized Einstein-aether supergravity is constructed using the superfield formalism. The constraints imposed by supe ...

Expansivity and Roquette groups

Alex Monnard

We prove the non-existence of expansive subgroups with trivial global core in different families of Roquette groups. This study is motivated by the importance of expansive subgroups in the theory of stabilizing bisets highlighted in [4]. ...

Time-varying FRI Theory for Sound Source Localization

Ivan Dokmanic, Juri Ranieri, Helena Peic Tukuljac

In this report we present results of a Semester project in the Winter semester of 2015. The project focuses on exploration of FRI theory for 1D case and its generalization. This theory is further applied to sound source localization with extension to signa ...

Controlled stripes of ultrafine ferroelectric domains

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Igor Stolichnov, Tomas Sluka, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Petr Yudin, Ludwig Feigl, Xiankui Wei, Mahamudu Mtebwa, Konstantin Shapovalov

In the pursuit of ferroic-based (nano) electronics, it is essential to minutely control domain patterns and domain switching. The ability to control domain width, orientation and position is a prerequisite for circuitry based on fine domains. Here, we deve ...

Nonlinearity in nanomechanical cantilevers

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo

Euler-Bernoulli beam theory is widely used to successfully predict the linear dynamics of micro-and nanocantilever beams. However, its capacity to characterize the nonlinear dynamics of these devices has not yet been rigorously assessed, despite its use in ...

Electronic fine structure calculation of [Gd(DOTA)(H2O)]- using LF-DFT: The zero field splitting

Lothar Helm, Alain Borel

Zerfo field splitting plays an important role in determining the electron spin relaxation of Gd(III) in solution. We understand the ZFS as an effect depending on the f electron structure and treat it in the framework of ligand field-density functional theo ...

Heated membranes for stencil lithography application

Sahbi Boujnah

This project aims to improve the technique of self-cleaning stencil based on heated membranes and minimize the clogging of stencil’s apertures. To this end, theory on vapor condensation has been developed for Aluminum, Chromium, Titanium, Gold and Platinum ...
