Sturmfels offered 100 Swiss Francs in 2005 to a conjecture, which deals with a special case of the maximum likelihood estimation for a latent class model. This paper confirms the conjecture positively.

Swiss cheese sets are compact subsets of the complex plane obtained by deleting a sequence of open disks from a closed disk. Such sets have provided numerous counterexamples in the theory of uniform algebras. In this paper, we introduce a topological space whose elements are what we call abstract Swiss cheeses. Working within this topological space, we show how to prove the existence of classical Swiss cheese sets (as discussed in a paper of Feinstein and Heath from 2010) with various desired properties. We first give a new proof of the Feinstein-Heath classicalisation theorem. We then consider when it is possible to classicalise a Swiss cheese while leaving disks which lie outside a given region unchanged. We also consider sets obtained by deleting a sequence of open disks from a closed annulus, and we obtain an analogue of the Feinstein-Heath theorem for these sets. We then discuss regularity for certain uniform algebras. We conclude with an application of these techniques to obtain a classical Swiss cheese set which has the same properties as a non-classical example of OFarrell (1979).
An accurate knowledge of the neutron capture cross sections of 62,63Ni is crucial since both isotopes take key positions which affect the whole reaction flow in the weak s process up to A=90. No experimental value for the 63Ni(n,gamma) cross section exists so far, and until recently the experimental values for 62Ni(n,gamma) at stellar temperatures (kT=30 keV) ranged between 12 and 37 mb. This latter discrepancy could now be solved by two activations with following AMS using the GAMS setup at the Munich tandem accelerator which are also in perfect agreement with a recent time-of-flight measurement. The resulting (preliminary) Maxwellian cross section at kT=30 keV was determined to be <sigma>30keV = 23.4 +/- 4.6 mb. Additionally, we have measured the 64Ni(gamma,n)63Ni cross section close to threshold. Photoactivations at 13.5 MeV, 11.4 MeV and 10.3 MeV were carried out with the ELBE accelerator at Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf. A first AMS measurement of the sample activated at 13.5 MeV revealed a cross section smaller by more than a factor of 2 compared to NON-SMOKER predictions.

We propose an optimization algorithm to compute the optimal sensor locations in experimental design in the formulation of Bayesian inverse problems, where the parameter-to-observable mapping is described through an integral equation and its discretiz ation results in a continuously indexed matrix whose size depends on the mesh size n. By approximating the gradient and Hessian of the objective design criterion from Chebyshev interpolation, we solve a sequence of quadratic programs and achieve the complexity $mathcal{O}(nlog^2(n))$. An error analysis guarantees the integrality gap shrinks to zero as $ntoinfty$, and we apply the algorithm on a two-dimensional advection-diffusion equation, to determine the LIDARs optimal sensing directions for data collection.
We present new methods to solve the Riemann problem both exactly and approximately for general equations of state (EoS) to facilitate realistic modeling and understanding of astrophysical flows. The existence and uniqueness of the new exact general E oS Riemann solution can be guaranteed if the EoS is monotone regardless of the physical validity of the EoS. We confirm that: (1) the solution of the new exact general EoS Riemann solver and the solution of the original exact Riemann solver match when calculating perfect gas Euler equations; (2) the solution of the new Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) general EoS Riemann solver and the solution of the original HLLC Riemann solver match when working with perfect gas EoS; and (3) the solution of the new HLLC general EoS Riemann solver approaches the new exact solution. We solve the EoS with two methods, one is to interpolate 2D EoS tables by the bi-linear interpolation method, and the other is to analytically calculate thermodynamic variables at run-time. The interpolation method is more general as it can work with other monotone and realistic EoS while the analytic EoS solver introduced here works with a relatively idealized EoS. Numerical results confirm that the accuracy of the two EoS solvers is similar. We study the efficiency of these two methods with the HLLC general EoS Riemann solver and find that analytic EoS solver is faster in the test problems. However, we point out that a combination of the two EoS solvers may become favorable in some specific problems. Throughout this research, we assume local thermal equilibrium.

Owing to the renewed interest in dark matter after the upgrade of the large hadron collider and its dedication to dark matter research it is timely to reassess the whole problem. Considering dark matter is one way to reconcile the discrepancy between the velocity of matter in the outer regions of galaxies and the observed galactic mass. So far, no credible candidate for dark matter has been identified. Here, we develop a model accounting for observations by rotations and interactions between rotating objects analogous to magnetic fields and interactions with moving charges. The magnitude of these fields is described by a fundamental constant of the order 10-41kg-1. The same interactions can be observed in the solar system where they lead to small changes in planetary orbits.
