We study the one-loop covariant effective action of Lifshitz theories using the heat kernel technique. The characteristic feature of Lifshitz theories is an anisotropic scaling between space and time. This is enforced by the existence of a preferred foliat ...
Horava's proposal for non-relativistic quantum gravity introduces a preferred time foliation of space-time which violates the local Lorentz invariance. The foliation is encoded in a dynamical scalar field which we call 'khronon'. The dynamics of the khrono ...
In this contribution, we study the notion of affine invariance (specifically, invariance to the shifting, scaling, and rotation of the coordinate system) as a starting point for the development of mathematical tools and approaches useful in the characteriz ...
Average consensus and gossip algorithms have recently received significant attention, mainly because they constitute simple and robust algorithms for distributed information processing over networks. Inspired by heat diffusion, they compute the average of ...

The aim of this thesis was to explore the statistical physics and the mechanical properties of individual biomolecules, to study their interactions, and to develop new techniques based on atomic force microscopy (AFM). First, we exploit the high resolution ...
Granular materials are large sets of macroscopic particles that interact solely via contact forces. The static behavior depends on the contact network and on the surface friction forces between grains; when they are set in motion (typically by vibrations) ...
Visualization tools can facilitate access to complex spatial phenomenon. This access is what the application to be presented aims at. As a case study to such a complex phenomenon, the addressed question is that of the commuters' space of the Swiss federal ...
In recent years a new theory of the evolution of drainage networks and associated landscapes has emerged, mainly in connection with the development of fractal geometry and of self-organized criticality (SOC) concepts. This theory has much improved our unde ...
The paper discusses the performance of a MIMO-extended UMTS-FDD downlink with a 2x2 and a 4x4 antenna configuration. An analytical expression for the average signal to interference ratio (SIR) of a space-time (ST) RAKE receiver in an interference dominated ...

Seemingly unrelated empirical hydrologic laws and several experimental facts related to the fractal geometry of the river basin are shown to find a natural explanation into a simple finite-size scaling ansatz for the power laws exhibited by cumulative dist ...
