Anomalous Dissipation and Lack of Selection in the Obukhov-Corrsin Theory of Scalar Turbulence

The Obukhov-Corrsin theory of scalar turbulence [21, 54] advances quantitative predictions on passive-scalar advection in a turbulent regime and can be regarded as the analogue for passive scalars of Kolmogorov's K41 theory of fully developed turbulence [4 ...

Self-Interaction and Polarons in Density Functional Theory

Stefano Falletta

The electron self-interaction is a long-standing problem in density functional theory and is particularly critical in the description of polarons. Polarons are quasiparticles involving charge localization coupled with self-induced lattice distortions. Sinc ...

Can Dynamic Priority Be Pareto Improving?

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

Traditional priority schemes reduce delays for some by increasing those of others. Yet, this might not be a necessity. Several works published over the last two decades have shown for a stylized set-up with homogeneous users that dynamic priority scheme ma ...

On the economics of social innovation - a conceptual framework and its policy implications

Dominique Foray

Social innovation addressing social, economic and environmental challenges are increasingly recognized as crucial drivers of social changes. However, the concept of social innovation remains vague. This paper builds a conceptual framework from an economic ...

Methodology for the optimal design of an integrated sugarcane distillery and cogeneration process for ethanol and power production

François Maréchal, Rami Bechara, Jean-Marc Schweitzer

The application of systematic methodologies for the optimal design of integrated processes has seen increased interest in literature, namely for bioprocesses. The development and application of such a methodology to ethanol and power production from sugarc ...

Cholera in the Lake Kivu region (DRC): Integrating remote sensing and spatially explicit epidemiological modeling

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Flavio Finger, Allyn Christine Knox, Marino Gatto

Mathematical models of cholera dynamics can not only help in identifying environmental drivers and processes that influence disease transmission, but may also represent valuable tools for the prediction of the epidemiological patterns in time and space as ...

Selection and Aggregation of Ranking Criteria for Retrieval from Scientific Publication Databases

Martin Veselý

Selection and aggregation of ranking criteria became an important topic in information retrieval as search is getting more specialized and as volume of electronically available information grows. In this context, document ranking has undergone a shift from ...

Reassessment of the 2010-2011 Haiti cholera outbreak and rainfall-driven multiseason projections

Andrea Rinaldo, Melanie Blokesch, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Lorenzo Righetto, Marino Gatto

Mathematical models can provide key insights into the course of an ongoing epidemic, potentially aiding real-time emergency management in allocating health care resources and by anticipating the impact of alternative interventions. We study the ex post rel ...

List-Decoding for the Arbitrarily Varying Channel Under State Constraints

Michael Christoph Gastpar

List-decoding for arbitrarily varying channels (AVCs) under state constraints is investigated. It is shown that rates within of the randomized coding capacity of AVCs with input-dependent state can be achieved under maximal error with list-decoding using l ...

Robust Array Calibration Using Time Delays with Application to Ultrasound Tomography

Martin Vetterli, Olivier Roy, Ivana Jovanovic

Accurate calibration is a requirement of many array signal processing techniques. We investigate the calibration of a transducer array using time delays. We derive a strategy based on the mean square error criterion and discuss how time delays that are not ...
