We propose an approach to spatial modeling of extreme rainfall, based on max-stable processes fitted using partial duration series and a censored threshold likelihood function. The resulting models are coherent with classical extreme-value theory and allow ...
We observe that an analogue of the Positive Mass Theorem in the time-symmetric case for three-space-time-dimensional general relativity follows trivially from the Gauss-Bonnet theorem. In this case we also have that the spatial slice is diffeomorphic to $\ ...
Antarctic megadunes are characterized by significant spatial differences in accumulation rate, with higher accumulation on the windward side and near-zero accumulation on the lee side. This leads to spatial differences in physical properties of snow and su ...
We have developed a geometric design method based on generalizations of IFS. We have shown that it is possible to extend the properties of fractal shapes to forms used in classical modeling (e.g Bézier or Splines). We have developed and studied a new forma ...
We describe in this article two recent results [11], [12], obtained by the author jointly with W. Schlag and D. Tataru, about singular solutions for the critical wave maps equation, as well as the critical focussing semilinear wave equation. Specifically, ...
Intense Mediterranean precipitation can generate devastating flash floods. A better understanding of the spatial structure of intense rainfall is critical to better identify catchments that will produce strong hydrological responses. We focus on two intens ...

We study the thermodynamics of cubic Ti1-xAlxN using a unified cluster expansion approach for the alloy problem. The purely configurational part of the alloy Hamiltonian is expanded in terms of concentration- and volume-dependent effective cluster interact ...
The method for analyzing physical activity of a subject comprises: -) measuring at least one of body movement or posture of the subject using at least one sensor; -) defining a plurality of physical activity time series based on at least one of the measure ...
We discuss the static and dynamical properties of a model of short range attractive colloidal systems. Our model is a binary mixture of particles interacting with a modified Lennard-Jones potential that we simulated by molecular dynamics. As previously fou ...
