In this work we numerically study the switching dynamics of a 2D cholesteric emulsion droplet immersed in an isotropic fluid under an electric field, which is either uniform or rotating with constant speed. The overall dynamics depend strongly on the magnitude and on the direction (with respect to… |

We give general bounds in the Gaussian and Poisson approximations of innovations (or Skorohod integrals) defined on the space of point processes with Papangelou conditional intensity. We apply the general results to Gibbs point processes with pair potential and determinantal point processes. In… |

A compression tool for satellite based imagery of the earth's land and atmosphere is presented. Orthogonal wavelet filters are adopted for this purpose. The ability of the technique to compress images has been applied to AVHRR images of cloud fields and the earth's surface. Compression by a factor… |

The unprecedented increase of life expectancy challenges society to protect the elderly from morbidity and mortality making vaccination a crucial mean to safeguard this population. Indeed, infectious diseases, such as influenza and pneumonia, are among the top killers of elderly people in the world… |

Proteins are the core and the engine of every process in cells thus the study of mechanisms that drive the regulation of protein expression, is essential. Transcription factors play a central role in this extremely complex task and they synergically co-operate in order to provide a fine tuning of… |

This paper deals with the modeling of social competition, possibly resulting in the onset of extreme conflicts. More precisely, we discuss models describing the interplay between individual competition for wealth distribution that, when coupled with political stances coming from support or… |

Understanding the complexity of the cellular machinery represents a grand challenge in molecular biology. To contribute to the deconvolution of this complexity, a novel inference algorithm based on linear ordinary differential equations is proposed, based solely on high-throughput gene expression… |
