The category of Segal spaces was proposed by Charles Rezk in 2000 as a suitable candidate for a model category for homotopy theories. We show that Quillen functors induce morphisms in this category and that the morphisms ...

Recently Bruno and Vaynblat introduced a new mathematical model to describe shock induced martensitic phase transitions. This model is much simpler than prior ones -- requiring, essentially, no quantities that cannot be ...

This doctoral dissertation is on the theory of Minimal Surfaces and of singularities in Mean Curvature Flow, for smooth submanifolds Y" in an ambient Riemannian (n+ 1)-manifold Nn+1, including: (1) New asymptotically conical ...

We present new techniques for generation of unstructured meshes for geometries specified by implicit functions. An initial mesh is iteratively improved by solving for a force equilibrium in the element edges, and the ...

Solar activity, as indexed by sunspots, has a cycle of length varying from about 9 to 13 years. Statisticians have fitted several models to predict sunspot numbers one year ahead. We instead focus on predicting the magnitudes ...

The Scott rank of a countable structure A, denoted sr(A), was observed by Nadel to be at most wA + 1, where wA4 is the least ordinal not recursive in A. Let T be weakly scattered and L(a,T) be E2-admissible. We give a ...

There are two algebras associated to a reductive Lie algebra g: the De Concini- Kac quantum algebra and the Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Recent results show that the principle block of De Concini -Kac quantum algebra at an odd ...
