Prominence and control: The weighted rich-club effect
Complex systems are often characterized by large-scale hierarchical organizations. Whether the prominent elements, at the top of the hierarchy, share and control resources or avoid one another lies at the heart of a system's global organization and functioning. Inspired by network perspectives, we propose a new general...

Symmetry Breaking for Maximum Satisfiability
Symmetries are intrinsic to many combinatorial problems including Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) and Constraint Programming (CP). In SAT, the identification of symmetry breaking predicates (SBPs) is a well-known, often effective, technique for solving hard problems. The identification of SBPs in SAT has been the subject ...

Realistic Haptic Rendering of Interacting Deformable Objects in Virtual Environments
A new computer haptics algorithm to be used in general interactive manipulations of deformable virtual objects is presented. In multimodal interactive simulations, haptic feedback computation often comes from contact forces. Subsequently, the fidelity of haptic rendering depends significantly on contact space modeling....

A Strong Tits Alternative
We show that for every integer $d$, there is a constant $N(d)$ such that if $K$ is any field and $F$ is a finite subset of $GL_d(K)$, which generates a non amenable subgroup, then $F^{N(d)}$ contains two elements, which freely generate a non abelian free subgroup. This improves the original statement of the Tits altern...

Distributed and Recursive Parameter Estimation in Parametrized Linear State-Space Models
We consider a network of sensors deployed to sense a spatio-temporal field and estimate a parameter of interest. We are interested in the case where the temporal process sensed by each sensor can be modeled as a state-space process that is perturbed by random noise and parametrized by an unknown parameter. To estimate ...

Universal cumulants of the current in diffusive systems on a ring
We calculate exactly the first cumulants of the integrated current and of the activity (which is the total number of changes of configurations) of the symmetric simple exclusion process (SSEP) on a ring with periodic boundary conditions. Our results indicate that for large system sizes the large deviation functions of ...

Reionization constraints from five-year WMAP data
We study the constraints on reionization from five years of WMAP data, parametrizing the evolution of the average fraction of ionized hydrogen with principal components that provide a complete basis for describing the effects of reionization on large-scale E-mode polarization. Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, we...

On the Numerical Evaluation of Fredholm Determinants
Some significant quantities in mathematics and physics are most naturally expressed as the Fredholm determinant of an integral operator, most notably many of the distribution functions in random matrix theory. Though their numerical values are of interest, there is no systematic numerical treatment of Fredholm determin...

Convergence and Stability of the Inverse Scattering Series for Diffuse Waves
We analyze the inverse scattering series for diffuse waves in random media. In previous work the inverse series was used to develop fast, direct image reconstruction algorithms in optical tomography. Here we characterize the convergence, stability and approximation error of the series

Optimal Dynamical Decoherence Control of a Qubit
A theory of dynamical control by modulation for optimal decoherence reduction is developed. It is based on the non-Markovian Euler-Lagrange equation for the energy-constrained field that minimizes the average dephasing rate of a qubit for any given dephasing spectrum.

Dynamics in a coupled-cavity array
The dynamics of a system composed of two coupled optical cavities, each containing a single two-level atom, is studied over a wide range of detuning and coupling values. A description of the field in terms of delocalized modes reveals that the detuning between the atoms and these modes is controlled by the coupling bet...

Radio source calibration for the VSA and other CMB instruments at around 30 GHz
Accurate calibration of data is essential for the current generation of CMB experiments. Using data from the Very Small Array (VSA), we describe procedures which will lead to an accuracy of 1 percent or better for experiments such as the VSA and CBI. Particular attention is paid to the stability of the receiver systems...

Cosmological Scaling Solutions with Tachyon:Modified Gravity Model
Modifying the Einstein's gravity at large distance scales is one of the interesting proposals to explain the late time acceleration of the universe. In this paper, we analyse scaling solutions in modified gravity models where the universe is sourced by a background matter fluid together with a tachyon type scalar field...

Measurement of the polarization of the $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ states in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV
We present a study of the polarization of the $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ states using a $1.3 $ fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by the D0 experiment in 2002--2006 during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider.

The critical behavior of thermodynamic quantities can be derived from a set of renormalization-group...

A Groebner basis for the secant ideal of the second hypersimplex
We determine a Groebner basis for the secant ideal of the toric ideal associated to the second hypersimplex, with respect to any circular term order. The Groebner basis of the secant ideal requires polynomials of odd degree up to n. This shows that the circular term order is 2-delightful, resolving a conjecture of Drto...

Polarisation selective magnetic vortex dynamics and core reversal in rotating magnetic fields
A magnetic vortex occurs as an equilibrium configuration in thin ferromagnetic platelets of micron and sub-micron size and is characterised by an in-plane curling magnetisation. At the centre, a magnetic singularity is avoided by an out-of-plane magnetisation core. This core has a gyrotropic excitation mode, which corr...

If m=2n and the Jordan normal form of the derivation consists of Jordan cells of size 2 only, we m...
