Published in 2020 at "Mathematische Annalen"

DOI: 10.1007/s00208-020-02083-5

Abstract: We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a cdh sheaf to satisfy Milnor excision, following ideas of Bhatt and Mathew. Along the way, we show that the cdh infinity-topos of a quasi-compact quasi-separated scheme of… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications"

DOI: 10.1007/s10957-022-02032-z

Abstract: Based on a result by Taylor et al. (J Optim Theory Appl 178(2):455–476, 2018) on the attainable convergence rate of gradient descent for smooth and strongly convex functions in terms of function values, an elementary… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "American journal of human genetics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ajhg.2020.02.010

Abstract: Segments of identity by descent (IBD) are used in many genetic analyses. We present a method for detecting identical-by-descent haplotype segments in phased genotype data. Our method, called hap-IBD, combines a compressed representation of haplotype… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "American journal of obstetrics and gynecology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ajog.2020.10.004

Abstract: BACKGROUND Ultrasound offers objective and reproducible methods to measure fetal head station. Before these methods can be applied to assess labor progress, fetal head descent needs to be evaluated longitudinally in well-defined populations and compared… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Soft matter"

DOI: 10.1039/c8sm00453f

Abstract: A superhydrophobic capillary tube immersed in water and brought in contact with the bath surface will be invaded by air, owing to its aerophilicity. We discuss this phenomenon where the ingredients of classical capillary rise… read more here.
