Computation Tree Logic with Deadlock Detection

Rob van Glabbeek, Bas Luttik, Nikola Trcka

We study the equivalence relation on states of labelled transition systems of satisfying the same formulas in Computation Tree Logic without the next state modality (CTL-X). This r…

Strong, Weak and Branching Bisimulation for Transition Systems and Markov Reward Chains: A Unifying Matrix Approach

Nikola Trčka

We first study labeled transition systems with explicit successful termination. We establish the notions of strong, weak, and branching bisimulation in terms of boolean matrix theo…

Vector magnetic field microscopy using nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond

B. J. Maertz, A. P. Wijnheijmer, G. D. Fuchs +2

The localized spin triplet ground state of a nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond can be used in atomic-scale detection of local magnetic fields. Here we present a technique usi…

Optimal Prandtl number for heat transfer in rotating Rayleigh-Benard convection

Richard J. A. M. Stevens, Herman J. H. Clercx, Detlef Lohse

Numerical data for the heat transfer as a function of the Prandtl (Pr) and Rossby (Ro) numbers in turbulent rotating Rayleigh-Benard convection are presented for Rayleigh number Ra…

Random-roughness hydrodynamic boundary conditions

Christian Kunert, Jens Harting, Olga I. Vinogradova

We report results of lattice Boltzmann simulations of a high-speed drainage of liquid films squeezed between a smooth sphere and a randomly rough plane. A significant decrease in t…

Probing photo-ionization: Experiments on positive streamers in pure gasses and mixtures

S Nijdam, F M J H van de Wetering, R Blanc +2

Positive streamers are thought to propagate by photo-ionization whose parameters depend on the nitrogen:oxygen ratio. Therefore we study streamers in nitrogen with 20%, 0.2% and 0.…

On the number of spanning trees a planar graph can have

Kevin Buchin, André Schulz

We prove that any planar graph on vertices has less than spanning trees. Under the restriction that the planar graph is 3-connected and contains no triangle and…

On the freeness of the cyclotomic BMW algebras: admissibility and an isomorphism with the cyclotomic Kauffman tangle algebras

Stewart Wilcox, Shona Yu

The cyclotomic Birman-Murakami-Wenzl (BMW) algebras B_n^k, introduced by R. Häring-Oldenburg, are a generalisation of the BMW algebras associated with the cyclotomic Hecke algebras…

On the structure of 3-nets embedded in a projective plane

Aart Blokhuis, Gábor Korchmáros, Francesco Mazzocca

We investigate finite 3-nets embedded in a projective plane over a (finite or infinite) field of any characteristic p. Such an embedding is regular when each of the three classes o…

Tail asymptotics for the total progeny of the critical killed branching random walk

Elie Aidekon

We consider a branching random walk on with a killing barrier at zero. At criticality, the process becomes eventually extinct, and the total progeny is therefore f…

Fully reversible transition from Wenzel to Cassie-Baxter states on corrugated superhydrophobic surfaces

R. J. Vrancken, H. Kusumaatmaja, K. Hermans +4

Liquid drops on textured surfaces show different dynamical behaviors depending on their wetting states. They are extremely mobile when they are supported by composite solid-liquid-…

Nonparametric methods for volatility density estimation

Bert van Es, Peter Spreij, Harry van Zanten

Stochastic volatility modelling of financial processes has become increasingly popular. The proposed models usually contain a stationary volatility process. We will motivate and re…

Lattice Boltzmann simulations in microfluidics: probing the no-slip boundary condition in hydrophobic, rough, and surface nanobubble laden microchannels

Jens Harting, Christian Kunert, Jari Hyväluoma

In this contribution we review recent efforts on investigations of the effect of (apparent) boundary slip by utilizing lattice Boltzmann simulations. We demonstrate the applicabili…

Turbulence-induced melting of a nonequilibrium vortex crystal in a forced thin fluid film

Prasad Perlekar, Rahul Pandit

To develop an understanding of recent experiments on the turbulence-induced melting of a periodic array of vortices in a thin fluid film, we perform a direct numerical simulation o…

Room-temperature ferromagnetism in graphite driven by 2D networks of point defects

J. Cervenka, M. I. Katsnelson, C. F. J. Flipse

Ferromagnetism in carbon-based materials is appealing for both applications and fundamental science purposes because carbon is a light and bio-compatible material that contains onl…

Partition Arguments in Multiparty Communication Complexity

Jan Draisma, Eyal Kushilevitz, Enav Weinreb

Consider the "Number in Hand" multiparty communication complexity model, where k players holding inputs x_1,...,x_k in {0,1}^n communicate to compute the value f(x_1,...,x_k) of a…

Singular lines of trilinear forms

Jan Draisma, Ron Shaw

We prove that an alternating e-form on a vector space over a quasi-algebraically closed field always has a singular (e-1)-dimensional subspace, provided that the dimension of the s…
