Universal Scaling Law for Jets of Collapsing Bubbles

Mohamed Farhat, Nicolas Dorsaz, Danail Obreschkow, Philipp Kobel, Aurèle De Bosset, Marc Tinguely

Cavitation bubbles collapsing and rebounding in a pressure gradient del p form a "microjet" enveloped by a "vapor jet." This Letter presents unprecedented observations of the vapor jets formed in a uniform gravity-induced del p, modulated aboard parabolic ...

The group of unimodular automorphisms of a principal bundle and the Euler-Yang-Mills equations

Given a principal bundle G hooked right arrow P -> B (each being compact, connected and oriented) and a G-invariant metric h(P) on P which induces a volume form mu(P), we consider the group of all unimodular automorphisms SAut(P, mu(P)) := {phi is an eleme ...

Characterising Conversationsal Group Dynamics Using Nonverbal Behaviour

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Dinesh Babu Jayagopi

This paper addresses the novel problemof characterizing conversational group dynamics. It is well documented in social psychology that depending on the objectives a group, the dynamics are different. For example, a competitive meeting has a different objec ...

Cayley Graphs and growth of groups

Nathalie Pellet

One of the most fundamental objects in algebra is the group. There exist plenty of different groups. In the following article we consider some free abelian gorups, cyclic groups, free groups and fundamental groups as well as the products of groups and draw ...

Optimal Capital and Risk Allocations for Law-and Cash-Invariant Convex Functions

Damir Filipovic, Gregor Svindland

In this paper we provide the complete solution to the existence and characterization problem of optimal capital and risk allocations for not necessarily monotone, law-invariant convex risk measures on the model space Lp, for any p ε [1;∞]. Our main result ...

Hierarchical Penalization

Hierarchical penalization is a generic framework for incorporating prior information in the fitting of statistical models, when the explicative variables are organized in a hierarchical structure. The penalizer is a convex functional that performs soft sel ...

Advances in the Design and Implementation of Group Communication Middleware

André Schiper, Sergio Mena, Olivier Rütti, Rachele Fuzzati, Daniel Bünzli

Group communication is a programming abstraction that allows a distributed group of processes to provide a reliable service in spite of the possibility of failures within the group. The goal of the project was to improve the state of the art of group commu ...
