The large-scale structure of the Internet (or, rather of the graph of the Autonomous System Nodes) has been attracting a lot of attention by the researchers for decades. One family of attractive models for this graph stipulates that it 'looks like' is if sampled from a hyperbolic plane. We discuss possible tests for the dimension of samples from...

Problems in applied topology often require computation of an optimal (in some sense) representative among shapes satisfying particular topological constraints. In many cases this is a very challenging, if not infeasible task. Interestingly, such complex problem often can be tackled using biologically inspired algorithms. For example, slime mold ...

Shallow-fluid models are often the first step in modeling many geophysical flows. These models apply when the horizontal scales of motion are much larger than the vertical scales. For a single fluid layer with a free-surface, the shallow water approximation results in hyperbolic equations which are well understood and broadly applied. Genericall...

We consider a novel group testing framework where defectives obey a probabilistic model in which the number and set of defectives is governed by a graphical model. We furthermore assume that the defectives have importance factors that influence their strength on the test outcomes and the accuracy with which the outcomes are read. This kind of sc...

I will discuss how spatio-temporal optical vortex (STOV) formation and propagation is a universal and governing feature of self-focusing collapse and filamentation. In particular, experiments and simulations will be presented illustrating the essential role of STOVs in femtosecond filamentation in gases and in relativistic filamentation in plasmas.

In this interview, Edith Milavitz gives an account of her early life as a Jewish Minnesotan. She was born in 1907 in St. Paul of Russian immigrant parents. Milavitz speaks about how her father was a junk peddler and how her mother and family sold chickens from the front yard of their St. Paul home on the West Side. The majority of this interview...

Tiq Milan is a Black trans man who grew up in Buffalo, New York. At the time of this interview, Milan was working as a writer based out of New York. In this oral history he talks about growing up in Buffalo during the 1980s, Black families and support networks, and (in his own words) organic masculinity. Milan also touches upon his experiences p...

A new approach is proposed, capable of restoring a single high-quality image from a given image sequence distorted by atmospheric turbulence. This approach reduces the space and time-varying deblurring problem to a shift invariant one. It first registers each frame to suppress geometric deformation through non-rigid registration. Next, a tempora...

The dynamics of a lipid bilayer membrane is investigated in several different situations. Our model accounts for the transport of lipids along each monolayer, and intermonolayer friction, as well as the membrane fluidity and resistance to bending. First we consider a nearly-spherical vesicle in a shear flow. In this near-spherical limit we can r...

In this talk we will presents the results concerning different aspects of the performance optimization of a swimsuit. The influence of the sewing on the performance has been analyzed: the results have proved a relevant improvements (in term of drag reduction and course time gain) when sewings are not present on the surface of the swimsuit.We wil...
