This master project on algebraic coding theory gathers various techniques from lattice theory, central simple algebras and algebraic number theory. The thesis begins with the formulation of the engineering problem into mathematical form. It presents how sp ...
We describe new extensions of the Vampire theorem prover for computing tree interpolants. These extensions generalize Craig interpolation in Vampire, and can also be used to derive sequence interpolants. We evaluated our implementation on a large number of ...
This is a correction to [BP 11] E. Bayer-Fluckiger, R. Parimala, Galois algebras, Hasse principle and induction-restriction methods, Documenta Math. 16 (2011), 677-707. ...
If L/K is a finite Galois extension of local fields, then we say that the valuation criterion VC(L/K) holds if there is an integer d such that every element x is an element of L with valuation d generates a normal basis for L/K. Answering a question of Byo ...
This thesis is concerned with the algebraic theory of hermitian forms. It is organized in two parts. The first, consisting of the first two chapters, deals with some descent properties of unimodular hermitian forms over central simple algebras with involut ...
Let k be a field of characteristic ≠2, A be a central simple algebra with involution σ over k and W(A,σ) be the associated Witt group of hermitian forms. We prove that for all purely inseparable extensions L of k, the canonical map rL/k:W(A,σ)⟶W(AL,σL) is ...
Recall that a rng is a ring which is possibly non-unital. In this note, we address the problem whether every finitely generated idempotent rng (abbreviated as irng) is singly generated as an ideal. It is well-known that it is the case for a commutative irn ...
We propose a novel nonlinear Volume Integral Equation formulation for second harmonic scattering problems, which we use for the calculation of the second harmonic near field generated from LiNbO3 nanowires. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America ...

Drug delivery is one of the most common clinical routines in hospitals, and is critical to patients’ health and recovery. It includes a decision making process in which a medical doctor decides the amount (dose) and frequency (dose interval) on the basis o ...
We propose an important extension of a previously studied, spatially explicit and hydrology-driven, model of cholera spreading. Our reformulation concerns the role of different modelizations of human movement on the overall dynamics of the epidemics, which ...
