Uniformly perfect finitely generated simple left orderable groups

We show that the finitely generated simple left orderable groups G(rho) constructed by the first two authors in Hyde and Lodha [Finitely generated infinite simple groups of homeomorphisms of the real line. Invent. Math. (2019), doi:10.1007/s00222-01900880- ...

Effects of aquifer geometry on seawater intrusion in annulus segment island aquifers

David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo

Seawater intrusion in island aquifers was considered analytically, specifically for annulus segment aquifers (ASAs), i.e., aquifers that (in plan) have the shape of an annulus segment. Based on the Ghijben–Herzberg and hillslope-storage Boussinesq equation ...

3D Smith chart constant quality factor semi-circles contours for positive and negative resistance circuits

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Andrei Müller

The article firstly proves that the constant quality factor (Q) contours for passive circuits, while represented on a 2D Smith chart, form circle arcs on a coaxal circle family. Furthermore, these circle arcs represent semi-circles families in the north he ...

On Sets Defining Few Ordinary Circles

Frank de Zeeuw

An ordinary circle of a set P of n points in the plane is defined as a circle that contains exactly three points of P. We show that if P is not contained in a line or a circle, then P spans at least ordinary circles. Moreover, we determine the exact minimu ...

On some algebraic and extremal problems in discrete geometry

Seyed Hossein Nassajianmojarrad

In the present thesis, we delve into different extremal and algebraic problems arising from combinatorial geometry. Specifically, we consider the following problems. For any integer

n\ge 3

, we define

e(n)

to be the minimum positive integer such that an ...

Distinct Distances on Algebraic Curves in the Plane

János Pach, Frank de Zeeuw

Let S be a set of n points in R-2 contained in an algebraic curve C of degree d. We prove that the number of distinct distances determined by S is at least c(d)n(4/3), unless C contains a line or a circle. We also prove the lower bound c(d)' min{m(2/3)n(2/ ...

First impressions: Gait cues drive reliable trait judgements

John Christian Thoresen

Personality trait attribution can underpin important social decisions and yet requires little effort; even a brief exposure to a photograph can generate lasting impressions. Body movement is a channel readily available to observers and allows judgements to ...

Calibration in Circular Ultrasound Tomography Devices

Martin Vetterli, Amin Karbasi, Reza Parhizkar

We consider the position calibration problem in circular tomography devices, where sensors deviate from a perfect circle. We introduce a new method of calibration based on the time-of-flight measurements between sensors when the enclosed medium is homogene ...

Phase extraction in speckle interferometry by a circle fitting procedure in the complex plane

Pierre Jacquot, Sébastien Equis

In speckle interferometry (SI), temporal signals are amplitude- and frequency-modulated signals and exhibit a fluctuating background. Prior to phase computation, this background intensity must be eliminated. Here our approach is to build a complex signal f ...

Classroom orchestration : The third circle of usability

Pierre Dillenbourg, Frédéric Kaplan, Patrick Jermann, Guillaume Zufferey, Sébastien Cuendet, Quentin Bonnard, Hamed Seiied Alavi, Lenh Hung Son Do

We analyze classroom orchestration as a question of usability in which the classroom is the user. Our experiments revealed design features that reduce the global orchestration load. According to our studies in vocational schools, paper-based interfaces hav ...
