Long-term programming of enhanced aggression by peripuberty stress in female rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana

Human literature has linked adverse early life experiences with an increased risk to develop violent behaviors in both boys and girls. We have previously shown that male rats submitted to stress during the peripuberty period display as adults abnormal aggr ...

A Contextual Analysis of Land-Use and Vegetation Changes in Two Wooded Pastures in the Swiss Jura Mountains

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Thomas Spiegelberger, Joël Chételat, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer, Michaël Kalbermatten, Kathryn Lannas

This study examines the effects of land-use policies and natural events on the evolution of two wooded pastures in the Jura Mountains in Switzerland between 1934 and 2000. The socioeconomic context and the local conditions were seen as major driving forces ...

Reclamation of low fertility soils using by-products and fast-growing trees

Marc Adami

The world population being increasing, a good energy production management is therefore necessary. Biomass production through short forest rotation by using fast-growing trees appears as a sensible way to limit fossil fuel uses. In Mediterranean regions of ...

Active Learning of Multi-Index Function Models

Volkan Cevher, Hemant Tyagi

We consider the problem of actively learning \textit{multi-index} functions of the form

f(x) = g(Ax)= \sum_{i=1}^k g_i(a_i^Tx)

from point evaluations of

f

. We assume that the function

f

is defined on an

\ell_2

-ball in

\Real^d

,

g

is twice contin ...

Soil-vegetation patterns in secondary slash and burn successions in Central Menabe, Madagascar

Alexandre Buttler, Jean-Michel Gobat

Slash and burn agriculture is a traditional and predominant land use practice in Madagascar and its relevance in the context of forest preservation is significant. At the end of a cycle of culture, the fields become mostly weed covered and the soil fertili ...

Functions With Orthogonal Hessian

Bernard Dacorogna

A Dirichlet problem for orthogonal Hessians in two dimensions is explicitly solved, by characterizing all piecewise C-2 functions u Omega subset of R-2 -> R with orthogonal Hessian in terms of a property named "second order angle condition" as in (1 1) ...

Analysis of intra-country virtual water trade strategy to alleviate water scarcity in Iran

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Increasing water scarcity has posed a major constraint to sustain food production in many parts of the world. To study the situation at the regional level, we took Iran as an example and analyzed how an intra-country "virtual water trade strategy" (VWTS) m ...

Carbon, oxygen and nitrogen dynamics in a soil profile: Model development and application

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Jordi Batlle-Aguilar

In order to meet demands for crops, pasture and firewood, the rate of land use change from forested to agricultural uses steadily increased over several decades, resulting in an increased release of nutrients towards groundwater and surface water bodies. I ...

The subconvexity problem for Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions and equidistribution of Heegner points. II

Philippe Michel

We prove a general subconvex bound in the level aspect for Rankin–Selberg L-functions associated with two primitive holomorphic or Maass cusp forms over Q. We use this bound to establish the equidistribution of incomplete Galois orbits of Heegner points on ...

Exact Local Reconstruction Algorithms for Signals with Finite Rate of Innovation

Martin Vetterli, Thierry Blu, Pier Luigi Dragotti

Consider the problem of sampling signals which are not bandlimited, but still have a finite number of degrees of freedom per unit of time, such as, for example, piecewise polynomial or piecewise sinusoidal signals, and call the number of degrees of freedom ...
