Proof of Stanley's conjecture about irreducible character values of the symmetric group

Valentin Féray

R. Stanley has found a nice combinatorial formula for characters of irreducible representations of the symmetric group of rectangular shape. Then, he has given a conjectural genera…

Thermocapillary valve for droplet production and sorting

C. N. Baroud, J. -P. Delville, F. Gallaire +1

Droplets are natural candidates for use as microfluidic reactors, if active control of their formation and transport can be achieved. We show here that localized heating from a las…

Positional Determinacy of Games with Infinitely Many Priorities

Erich Graedel, Igor Walukiewicz

We study two-player games of infinite duration that are played on finite or infinite game graphs. A winning strategy for such a game is positional if it only depends on the current…

Vertex labeling and routing in expanded Apollonian networks

Zhongzhi Zhang, Francesc Comellas, Guillaume Fertin +3

We present a family of networks, expanded deterministic Apollonian networks, which are a generalization of the Apollonian networks and are simultaneously scale-free, small-world, a…

Hindered mobility of a particle near a soft interface

Thomas Bickel

The translational motion of a solid sphere near a deformable fluid interface is studied in the low Reynolds number regime. In this problem, the fluid flow driven by the sphere is d…

New neutron detector based on Micromegas technology for ADS projects

Samuel Andriamonje, Gregory Andriamonje, Stephan Aune +17

A new neutron detector based on Micromegas technology has been developed for the measurement of the simulated neutron spectrum in the ADS project. After the presentation of simulat…

Liquid Transport Due to Light Scattering

Robert D. Schroll, Régis Wunenburger, Alexis Casner +2

Using experiments and theory, we show that light scattering by inhomogeneities in the index of refraction of a fluid can drive a large-scale flow. The experiment uses a near-critic…

Domain wall superconductivity in superconductor/ferromagnet bilayers

M. Houzet, A. I. Buzdin

We analyze the enhancement of the superconducting critical temperature of superconducting/ferromagnetic bilayers due to the appearance of localized superconducting states in the vi…

A note on confined diffusion

Thomas Bickel

The random motion of a Brownian particle confined in some finite domain is considered. Quite generally, the relevant statistical properties involve infinite series, whose coefficie…

Brownian motion near a liquid-like membrane

Thomas Bickel

The dynamics of a tracer molecule near a fluid membrane is investigated, with particular emphasis given to the interplay between the instantaneous position of the particle and memb…

WKB analysis for nonlinear Schrödinger equations with potential

Rémi Carles

We justify the WKB analysis for the semiclassical nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a subquadratic potential. This concerns subcritical, critical, and supercritical cases as far…
