A broadcast on a connected graph G with vertex set V(G) is a function f:V(G) ➛ {0, 1, ..., diam(G)} such that f(v) ≤ e(v), where e(v) denotes the eccentricity of v. If f(v) > 0, the vertex v is said to broadcast at strength f(v). In generalizing...

UBC Ergodic Theory Seminar: Chengyu Wu
November 17, 2022
University of British Columbia
The method of cutting and stacking has long been used in ergodic theory. As a useful tool for constructing stationary and ergodic processes with desired properties, this method should also be powerful in solving information theoretic problems. In...

About 100 years ago, William Henry Young and Felix Hausdorff provedthat, for a periodic L_p-integrable function, the sequence of its Fourier coefficients necessarily lies in the discrete \ell_{p'} space provided that p' is the conjugate of p and 1

Online
The blow up of the anticanonical base point on X, a del Pezzo surface of degree 1, gives rise to a rational elliptic surface E with only irreducible fibers. The sections of minimal height of E are in correspondence with the 240 exceptional curves on...
