It has been proposed in the literature, based on theoretical considerations and on finite-element calculations, that all three stress tensor invariants govern the yield surface of cellular materials. Recent experiments on 75 gm pore size aluminium replicat ...
The aim of this dissertation is to solve numerically the following problem, denoted by P : given a Riemannian manifold and two points a and b belonging to that manifold, find a tangent vector T at a, such that expa(T) = b, assuming that T exists. This prob ...
The objective of this PhD thesis is the approximate computation of the solutions of the Spectral Problem associated with the Laplace operator on a compact Riemann surface without boundaries. A Riemann surface can be seen as a gluing of portions of the Hype ...
Reo is a coordination language that can be used to model different systems. We propose a technique for symbolic execution of Reo circuits using the symbolic representation of data constraints in Constraint Automata. This technique enables us to obtain the ...
We study lattices in non-positively curved metric spaces. Borel density is established in that setting as well as a form of Mostow rigidity. A converse to the flat torus theorem is provided. Geometric arithmeticity results are obtained after a detour throu ...
We adopt a kinetic theory of polariton nonequilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation to describe the formation of off-diagonal long-range order. The theory accounts properly for the dominant role of quantum fluctuations in the condensate. In realistic situatio ...
Summary: We explicitly give calT, the Teichmüller space of four-holed spheres (which we call X pieces) in trace coordinates, as well as its modular group and a fundamental domain for the action of this group on calT which is its moduli space. As a co ...
For every hyperbolic group and more general hyperbolic graphs, we construct an equivariant ideal bicombing: this is a homological analogue of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We then construct a cohomological invariant which implies that s ...
Reduction strategies, such as model order reduction (MOR) or reduced basis (RB) methods, in scientic computing may become crucial in applications of increasing complexity. In this paper we review the reduced basis method (built upon a high-delity "truth" f ...
