We consider the problem of detecting epidemics in graphs when the indication if a node is infectedis extremely noisy. We show that with even overwhelming noise the structure of the network can stillbe used to detect epidemics. Our approach uses local algorithms for detection and only a fairlyloose information about the network structure is neede...

Two-phase gas-liquid flows are important in a variety of heat transfersystems, such as in the on-chip cooling of microelectromechanicaldevices up to the infrastructure of safety systems in nuclear powerplants. We focus on the case of two-layer flows in inclined channels,where a gas and a liquid, immiscibly separated by a sharp interface withlarg...

We first show the existence of thesuperdifferentials and tight modular upper bounds of a submodularfunction. While it is ha...
