A NEW POTENTIAL FUNCTION FOR SELF INTERSECTING GIELIS CURVES WITH RATIONAL SYMMETRIES
2009
International audience; We present a new potential field equation for self-intersecting Gielis curves with rational rotational symmetries. In the literature, potential field equations for these curves, and their extensions to surfaces, impose the rotational symmetries to be integers in order to guarantee the unicity of the intersection between the curve/surface and any ray starting from its center. Although the representation with natural symmetries has been applied to mechanical parts modeling and reconstruction, the lack of a potential function for Rational symmetry Gielis Curves (RGC) remains a major problem for natural object representation, such as flowers and phyllotaxis. We overcome thi…
Query-preserving watermarking of relational databases and XML documents
2011
Watermarking allows robust and unobtrusive insertion of information in a digital document. During the last few years, techniques have been proposed for watermarking relational databases or Xml documents, where information insertion must preserve a specific measure on data (for example the mean and variance of numerical attributes). In this article we investigate the problem of watermarking databases or Xml while preserving a set of parametric queries in a specified language, up to an acceptable distortion. We first show that unrestricted databases can not be watermarked while preserving trivial parametric queries. We then exhibit query languages and classes of structures that allow guarante…
SIMILARITY NETWORK FOR SEMANTIC WEB SERVICES SUBSTITUTION
2013
Web services substitution is one of the most challenging tasks for automating the composition process of multiple Web services. It aims to improve performances and to deal efficiently with Web services failures. Many existing solutions have approached the problem through classification of substitutable Web services. To go a step further, we propose in this paper a network based approach where nodes are Web services operations and links join similar operations. Four similarity measures based on the comparison of input and output parameters values of Web services operations are presented. A comparative evaluation of the topological structure of the corresponding networks is performed on a ben…
A note on Hilbert’s weak nullstellensatz
2015
In this article, through a suitable generalization of the well-known notion of spectrum of an element of an arbitrary normed algebra of Operator Theory, it will be possible to give another simple proof of the Hilbert’s Weak Nullstellensatz.
On Gelfand-Mazur Theorem
2015
From a suitable extension of the notion of spectrum drew from normed algebra theory, it will be possible, among other things, to provide some generalizations of the well-known Gelfand-Mazur theorem. In this brief research report, we wish to pursue one of these, as achieved in I,4.
Counting Prefixes of Skew Dyck Paths
2021
We present enumerative results on prefixes of skew Dyck paths by giving recursive relations, Riordan arrays, and generating functions, as well as closed formulas to count the total number of these paths with respect to the length, the height of its endpoint and the number of left steps.
Can there be a general nonlinear PDE theory for existence of solutions ?
2010
Updated version of the 2004 paper arxiv:math/0407026; Contrary to widespread perception, there is ever since 1994 a unified, general type independent theory for the existence of solutions for very large classes of nonlinear systems of PDEs. This solution method is based on the Dedekind order completion of suitable spaces of piece-wise smooth functions on the Euclidean domains of definition of the respective PDEs. The method can also deal with associated initial and/or boundary value problems. The solutions obtained can be assimilated with usual measurable functions or even with Hausdorff continuous functions on the respective Euclidean domains. It is important to note that the use of the or…
Statistical consequences of the Devroye inequality for processes. Applications to a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems
2005
In this paper, we apply Devroye inequality to study various statistical estimators and fluctuations of observables for processes. Most of these observables are suggested by dynamical systems. These applications concern the co-variance function, the integrated periodogram, the correlation dimension, the kernel density estimator, the speed of convergence of empirical measure, the shadowing property and the almost-sure central limit theorem. We proved in \cite{CCS} that Devroye inequality holds for a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems introduced in \cite{young}. In the second appendix we prove that, if the decay of correlations holds with a common rate for all pairs of functio…

Additive functionals and push forward measures under Veretennikov's flow
2014
16 pages; In this work, we will be interested in the push forward measure $(\vf_t)_*\gamma$, where $\vf_t$ is defined by the stochastic differential equation \begin{equation*} d\vf_t(x)=dW_t + \ba(\vf_t(x))dt, \quad \vf_0(x)=x\in\mbR^m, \end{equation*} and $\gamma$ is the standard Gaussian measure. We will prove the existence of density under the hypothesis that the divergence $\div(\ba)$ is not a function, but a signed measure belonging to a Kato class; the density will be expressed with help of the additive functional associated to $\div(\ba)$.
