Let ES(n) denote the minimum natural number such that every set of ES(n) points in general position in the plane contains n points in convex position. In 1935, ErdAs and Szekeres proved that ES. In 1961, they obtained the lower bound , which they conjectur ...
Room acoustics refers to the audio capture of an enclosed room. It can be seen as its color and fully describes the characteristics of the room, including the shape, size or the population. The goal of the project is to set up a database of Room impulse re ...
We have searched for the decay B-0 -> phi gamma sing the full Belle data set of 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs collected at the gamma(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e(+)e(-) collider. No signal is observed, and we set an upper limit on ...
Let P be a set of n > d points in for d >= 2. It was conjectured by Zvi Schur that the maximum number of (d-1)-dimensional regular simplices of edge length diam(P), whose every vertex belongs to P, is n. We prove this statement under the condition that any ...
In this paper we give a new proof of the ELSV formula. First, we refine an argument of Okounkov and Pandharipande in order to prove (quasi-)polynomiality of Hurwitz numbers without using the ELSV formula (the only way to do that before used the ELSV formul ...
We estimate the selection constant in the following geometric selection theorem by Pach: For every positive integer d, there is a constant such that whenever are n-element subsets of , we can find a point and subsets for every , each of size at least , suc ...
A double-normal pair of a finite set S of points that spans R-d is a pair of points {p, q} from S such that S lies in the closed strip bounded by the hyperplanes through p and q perpendicular to pq. A double-normal pair {p, q} is strict if S \ {p,q} lies i ...
This paper studies magnifying superlens using complementary media. Superlensing using complementary media was suggested by Veselago in [16] and innovated by Nicorovici et al. in [9] and Pendry in [10]. The study of this problem is difficult due to two fact ...
The aim of this short note is twofold. First, we give a sketch of the proof of a recent result proved by the authors in the paper [7] concerning existence and uniqueness of renormalized solutions of continuity equations with unbounded damping coefficient. ...
Crowdsourcing has been widely established as a means to enable human computation at large scale, in particular for tasks that require manual labelling of large sets of data items. Answers obtained from heterogeneous crowd workers are aggregated to obtain a ...
