We explicitly determine all the relative generalized Hamming weights of affine Cartesian codes using the notion of footprints and results from extremal combinatorics. This generalizes the previous works on the determination of relative generalized Hamming weights of Reed–Muller codes by Geil and Martin, as well as the determination of all the generalized Hamming weights of the affine Cartesian codes ...

We classify all (locally) homogeneous Levi non-degenerate real hypersurfaces in C³ with symmetry algebra of dimension ≥6.

Population dynamic models combine density dependence and environmental effects. Ignoring sampling uncertainty might lead to biased estimation of the strength of density dependence. This is typically addressed using state‐space model approaches, which integrate sampling error and population process estimates. Such models seldom include an explicit link between the sampling procedures and the true ...

A quadrature rule of a measure <i>µ</i> on the real line represents a conic combination of finitely many evaluations at points, called nodes, that agrees with integration against <i>µ</i> for all polynomials up to some fixed degree. In this paper, we present a bivariate polynomial whose roots parametrize the nodes of minimal quadrature rules for measures on the real line. We give two symmetric ...

<p>Offshore oil drilling is a complex process that requires careful coordination of hardware and control systems. Fault monitoring systems play an important role in such systems for safe and profitable operations. Thus, predictive maintenance and monitoring operating conditions of drilling systems are critical to the overall production cycle. In this paper, we are addressing the topic of condition ...

Spectral clustering (SC) is a popular clustering technique to find strongly connected communities on a graph. SC can be used in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to implement pooling operations that aggregate nodes belonging to the same cluster. However, the eigendecomposition of the Laplacian is expensive and, since clustering results are graph-specific, pooling methods based on SC must perform a ...

Boundary integral equations (BIEs) are used to model surface waves in a wave tank. Assuming an ideal fluid, the velocity of the fluid can be considered as a potential flow and be modeled by the Laplace equation on the domain. The domain in this case will be a section of a wave channel with an incoming wave from the right, a rigid bottom, a reflective wall on the right and a time varying surface that ...

<b>Background</b> Validated clinical prediction models to identify children with poor prognosis at the time of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) diagnosis would be very helpful for tailoring treatments, and avoiding under- or over-treatment. Our objective was to externally validate Nordic clinical prediction models in Canadian patients with JIA. <b>Methods</b> We used data from 513 subjects ...

In this thesis we consider the equivalence problem for symplectic and conformal symplectic group actions on submanifolds and functions. We solve the equivalence problem for general submanifolds by means of computing differential invariants and describing all the invariants of the associated group action by appealing to the Lie-Tresse theorem.

We study q-ary linear codes C obtained from Veronese surfaces over finite fields.We show how one can find the higher weight spectra of these codes, or equivalently, the weight distribution of all extension codes of C over all field extensions of the ground field. Our methods will be a study of the Stanley-Reisner rings of a series of matroids associated to each code C.
