Transaction Costs and Returns to a Trading Strategy
2017
This chapter starts with a review of transaction costs in capital markets. Then it demonstrates how to simulate the returns to a moving average trading strategy in the presence of transaction costs. The following two cases are considered when a trading indicator generates a sell signal: case one where the trader switches to cash, and case two where the trader alternatively sells short a financial asset.
Trigger and aperture of the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory
2010
The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, for the study of extensive airshowers (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. We describe the trigger hierarchy, from the identification of candidates howers at the level of a single detector, amongst a large background (mainly random single cosmic ray muons), up to the selection of real events and the rejection of random coincidences. Such trigger makes the surface detector array fully efficient for the detection of EAS with energy above 3 x 1018 eV, for all zenith angles between 03 and 603, independently of the position of the impact point and of the mass of the primary particl…

Peer effects in the light of students interactions and the subjective dimensions of school experience
2011
This Thesis addresses the issue of peer-effects in the context of school. From analysis of a large database produced by a Chilean national study (SIMCE 2004), this work investigates the mechanisms through which pupils with different levels of scholastic, human and cultural capital influence each other. These influences seem present for a diverse range of school outcomes, including academic achievement. Drawing on the literature produced by different disciplinary approaches —sociology, economics, social psychology and education— the study focuses on ways of identifying and measuring peer-effects. The presence of subjective dimensions capable of reflecting, in part, the school experience of p…
Staging the ‘devoted’ Mr Amanjit Singh in Upstairs, Downstairs (BBC1, 2010-2012)
2017
Si l’on a récemment assisté à la multiplication de séries britanniques (re)mettant en scène la cohabitation entre maîtres et domestiques dans des productions en costumes revenant sur les premières décennies du XXème siècle au Royaume Uni (Downtown Abbey, The Forsyte Saga), Downstairs, Upstairs est le seul exemple de série télévisée qui ait choisi d’inclure comme domestique vivant sous le même toit que ses maîtres un personnage né en Inde. La version 2010 de Downstairs, Upstairs reprend en fait une série diffusée dans les années 1970, et la fait redémarrer en 1936 (soit six ans après la fin de la série d’origine), pour s’intéresser aux circonstances qui déboucheront sur la déclaration de la …
On the tensor degree of finite groups
2013
We study the number of elements $x$ and $y$ of a finite group $G$ such that $x \otimes y= 1_{_{G \otimes G}}$ in the nonabelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ of $G$. This number, divided by $|G|^2$, is called the tensor degree of $G$ and has connection with the exterior degree, introduced few years ago in [P. Niroomand and R. Rezaei, On the exterior degree of finite groups, Comm. Algebra 39 (2011), 335--343]. The analysis of upper and lower bounds of the tensor degree allows us to find interesting structural restrictions for the whole group.
A general diastereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized ferrocenyl ambiphiles enabled on a large scale by electrochemical purification
2017
International audience; A general synthesis of highly functionalized ferrocenes, which include (P,B)- and (N,B)-ambiphiles, has been developed at a multigram scale. Diastereoselective stepwise modification of di-tert-butylated ferrocenes included the unprecedented separation of electroactive species. Bulky alkyl groups on ferrocenes ensure planar chirality of ambiphiles and enforce closer proximity of antagonist Lewis functions.

Reaction of rare earth metal–alkyl complexes [Ln(CH2SiMe3)3(THF)2] (Ln = Y, Lu) with B(C6X5)3 (X = H, F) in the presence of crown ethers gives crystallographically characterized ion pairs [Ln(CH2SiMe3)2(CE)(THF)n]+[B(CH2SiMe3)(C6X5)3]– (CE = [12]-crown-4, n = 1; CE = [15]-crown-5 and [18]-crown-6, n = 0).
