Crowdsourced delivery platforms face complex scheduling challenges to match couriers and customer orders. We consider two types of crowdsourced couriers, namely, committed and occasional couriers, each with different compensation schemes. Crowdsource...
We investigate the quark-lepton symmetric model of Foot and Lew in the context of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In this `bottom-up' extension to the Standard Model, quark-lepton symmetry is achieved by introducing a gauged `leptonic colour' symmet...
We provide elementary algorithms for two preservation theorems for first-order sentences (FO) on the class âd of all finite structures of degree at most d: For each FO-sentence that is preserved under extensions (homomorphisms) on âd, a âd-equiv...
Let $V$ be one of the following unitary strongly-rational VOAs: unitary WZW models, discrete series W-algebras of type ADE, even lattice VOAs, parafermion VOAs, their tensor products, and their strongly-rational cosets. Let $U$ be a (unitary) VOA ext...
Multi-level Mesa is an extension to support the Python based Agents Based Model (ABM) library Mesa. Multi-level Mesa provides ABM infrastructure to allow for the inclusion of complex networks, which have modules (groups) and hierarchies (layers) of a...
In this paper, we describe the strategies used by our team, MLFC, that led us to achieve the 2nd place in the 15th edition of the Multi-Agent Programming Contest. The scenario used in the contest is an extension of the previous edition (14th) "Agents...
We describe situations in which chains of N degenerate quantum energy levels, coupled by time-dependent external fields, can be replaced by independent sets of chains of length N, N-1,...,2 and sets of uncoupled single states. The transformation is a...
In this paper is to extend the Cheeger-Colding Theory to the class of conic Kahler-Einstein metrics. This extension provides a technical tool for [LTW] in which we prove a version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for Fano varieties with certain s...
Given a finite group $ G $, we study certain regular subgroups of the group of permutations of $ G $, which occur in the classification theories of two types of algebraic objects: skew left braces with multiplicative group isomorphic to $ G $ and Hop...
With the advent and recent extension of the BLHA standard to interface Monte Carlo event generators and one-loop matrix element providers, the Herwig++ event generator has expanded its range of applicability to a multitude of underlying hard processe...
The physics teaching particularly the optics teaching always have faced motivational problems, mostly due to the loss of the link between the social practice and the daily life of the student. Moreover, the laboratory practices have lost space in hig...
As is well-known, numerical experiments show that Napoleon's Theorem for planar triangles does not extend to a similar statement for triangles on the unit sphere $S^2$. Spherical triangles for which an extension of Napoleon's Theorem holds are called...
