In this note we present a new self-contained approach to the class field theory of arithmetic schemes in the sense of Wiesend. Along the way we prove new results on space filling curves on arithmetic schemes and on the class field theory of local rin...
Historically, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is an active field of applied cryptography where recent focus is on high speed, constant time, and formally verified implementations. While there are a handful of outliers where all these concepts join...
The trend toward autonomous robot deployments is on an upward growth curve. These robots are undertaking new tasks and are being integrated into society. Examples of this trend are autonomous vehicles, humanoids, and eldercare. The movement from fact...
A serpentine shape is any of certain curved shapes of an object or design, which are suggestive of the shape of a snake (the adjective "serpentine" is
short bones. Flat bones are thin and generally curved, with two parallel layers of compact bone sandwiching a layer of spongy bone. Most of the bones of
The Thurston spine consists of the subset of Teichmüller space at which the set of shortest curves, the systoles, cuts the surface into polygons. The systole function is a topological Morse function on Teichmüller space. This paper studies the loca...
We construct the first examples of manifolds, the simplest one being the product of S^3, S^4, and R^5, which admit infinitely many complete nonnegatively curved metrics with pairwise nonhomeomorphic souls....
We give examples of open manifolds that carry infinitely many complete metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature such that they all have the same soul, and their isometry classes lie in different connected components of the moduli space. All previou...
For each nonnegative integer we find an open (4m+9)-dimensional simply-connected manifold admitting complete nonnegatively curved metrics whose souls are non-diffeomorphic, homeomorphic, and have codimension 2. We give a diffeomorphism classification...
A sharp lower bound for the injectivity radius in noncompact nonnegatively curved Riemannian manifolds involving their soul goes back to Šarafutdinov. We generalize this bound to the setting of Alexandrov spaces. Our main theorem reads as follows. I...
We report on the timing analysis of the observation of the X-ray binary pulsar Her X-1 performed during the BeppoSAX Science Verification Phase. The observation covered more that two full orbital cycles near the maximum of the main-on in the 35 day...
In this article, we explore the divergences and universal terms of the holographic entanglement entropy for singular regions in anisotropic and nonconformal theories that are holographically dual to geometries with a hyperscaling violation, parameter...
We present the analysis of stellar binary microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0060 based on observations obtained from 13 different telescopes. Intensive coverage of the anomalous parts of the light curve was achieved by automated follow-up observations...
Let $J^{65}$ be the Jacobian of the Shimura curve attached to the indefinite quaternion algebra over $\mathbb{Q}$ of discriminant $65$. We study the isogenies $J_0(65)\rightarrow J^{65}$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose existence was proved by Ribet....
We have measured the orbital light curve of dwarf nova OY Carinae on 8 separate occasions between 1997 September and 2005 December. The measurements were made in white light using CCD photometers on the Mt Canopus 1 m telescope. The time of eclipse...
We present a phase-resolved ROSAT HRI X-ray light curve of the dwarf nova OY Car in quiescence. The X-ray flux is eclipsed at the same time as the optical eclipse of the primary, and the region of X -ray emission is comparable in size to the white...
We present ROSAT X-ray and optical light curves of the 1994 February superoutburst of the eclipsing SU UMa dwarf nova OY Carinae. There is no eclipse of the flux in the ROSAT HRI light curve. Contemporaneous `wide B' band optical light curves show...
In his fundamental work on the stack of stable n-pointed genus g curves, Finn F. Knudsen introduced the concept of a stably reflexive module in order to prove a key technical lemma. We propose an alternative definition and generalise the results in t...
Astronomers traditionally find steep, open-ended functions difficult: the log N - log S curve for example, or the probability-area-radius relation in making cross-waveband identifications. The debate over the existence of a redshift cutoff for RQSO...
