This work is dedicated to the study of Borel equivalence relations acting on Borel fields of CAT(0) metric spaces over a standard probability space. In this new framework we get similar results to some theorems proved recently by S. Adams-W. Ballmann or N. ...
In a dramatic crisis context, Lisbon reveals itself as an attractive and dynamic city of alternative bustling creativity. Trying to understand this paradox, I analyse two successful “alternative cultural spaces”: Lx Factory and Pensão Amor. Urban strategie ...
The dissertation “Archaeological area of Classe: memory and identity of a buried place” introduces a strategic and global masterplan to set a new dialogue between the ancient traces of the Ravenna’s harbour and the system of fascinating Early Christian bas ...
This monograph contains a study of the global Cauchy problem for the Yang-Mills equations on (6+1) and higher dimensional Minkowski space, when the initial data sets are small in the critical gauge covariant Sobolev space. (H) over dot(A)((n-4)/2). Regular ...
We introduce a new discretization scheme for Maxwell equations in two space dimension. Inspired by the new paradigm of Isogeometric analysis introduced in Hughes et al. (2005) [16], we propose an algorithm based on the use of bivariate B-splines spaces sui ...
As Avez showed (in 1970), the fundamental group of a compact Riemannian manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature has exponential growth if and only if it is not flat. After several generalizations from Gromov, Zimmer, Anderson, Burger and Shroeder, the ...
We present results from an experimental investigation of the indentation of nonspherical pressurized elastic shells with a positive Gauss curvature. A predictive framework is proposed that rationalizes the dependence of the local rigidity of an indented sh ...
Despite the rapid evolution of computational power, simulation of meander dynamics by means of reduced and computationally less expensive models remains practically relevant for investigation of large-scale and long-term processes, probabilistic prediction ...
Certain high power laser applications require thin homogeneous laser lines. In this paper we describe the concept, fabrication and characterization of a 1-D diffuser that generates such a line. The device is based on an array of concave cylinder lenses wit ...
We study a family of equations defined on the space of tensor densities of weight lambda on the circle and introduce two integrable PDE. One of the equations turns out to be closely related to the inviscid Burgers equation while the other has not been iden ...
