We give essentially tight bounds for, $\nu(d,k)$, the maximum number of distinct neighbourhoods on a set $X$ of $k$ vertices in a graph with twin-width at most~$d$. Using the celebrated Marcus-Tardos theorem, two independent works [Bonnet et al., Algorithmica '22; Przybyszewski '22] have shown the upper bound $\nu(d,k) \leqslant \exp(\exp(O(d)))k$,...
SiCN:H thin films have large possibilities of applications due to their versatile chemical and physical properties. Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (PACVD) process widely used for SiCN:H deposition. Here we discuss on the potentialities of dual Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) and Radio Frequency Magnetron Sputtering (rf MS) plasmas cou...
We study the asymptotic growth of the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on singular Riemannian manifolds, where all geometrical invariants appearing in classical spectral asymptotics are unbounded, and the total volume can be infinite. Under suitable assumptions on the curvature blow-up, we show how the singularity influences the Weyl's ...
This paper deals with surrogate modeling of a computer code output in a hierarchical multi-fidelity context, i.e., when the output can be evaluated at different levels of accuracy and computational cost. Using observations of the output at low- and high-fidelity levels, we propose a method that combines Gaussian process (GP) regression and the Baye...
The reconfiguration graph $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ for the $k$-colourings of a graph $G$ has a vertex for each proper $k$-colouring of $G$, and two vertices of $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ are adjacent precisely when those $k$-colourings differ on a single vertex of $G$. Much work has focused on bounding the maximum value of ${\rm{diam}}~\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ over all...

We show $L^p$ estimates for square roots of second order complex elliptic systems $L$ in divergence form on open sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ subject to mixed boundary conditions. The underlying set is supposed to be locally uniform near the Neumann boundary part, and the Dirichlet boundary part is Ahlfors-David regular. The lower endpoint for the interv...

As a synaptic device candidate for artificial neural networks (ANNs), memristors hold great promise for efficient neuromorphic computing. However, commonly used filamentary memristors normally exhibit large cyclic variations due to the stochastic nature of filament formation and ablation, which will inevitably degrade the computing accuracy. Here w...
We present a type system that combines, in a controlled way, first-order polymorphism with intersectiontypes, union types, and subtyping, and prove its safety. We then define a type reconstruction algorithm that issound and terminating. This yields a system in which unannotated functions are given polymorphic types(thanks to Hindley-Milner) that ca...
Solar system Centaurs originate in transneptunian space from where planet orbit crossing events inject their orbits inside the giant planets' domain. Here, we examine this injection process in the three-body problem by studying the orbital evolution of transneptunian asteroids located at Neptune's collision singularity as a function of the Tisseran...
