Performance evaluation and enhancement of massive MIMO communication systems by Tran, Xuan Tuong

“…It has been shown that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional maximum receive power association scheme. Based on the combinational use of the small cell deployment, massive MIMO and joint transmission, it has been shown that the two-tier HetNet can provide high spectral efficiency and energy efficiency.…”

Semidefinite programming and linear equations vs. homomorphism problems by Ciardo, L, Zivny, S

“…We introduce a relaxation for homomorphism problems that combines semidefinite programming with linear Diophantine equations, and propose a framework for the analysis of its power based on the spectral theory of association schemes. We use this framework to establish an unconditional lower bound against the semidefinite programming + linear equations model, by showing that the relaxation does not solve the approximate graph homomorphism problem and thus, in particular, the approximate graph colouring problem.…”

Linear Codes from Two Weakly Regular Plateaued Balanced Functions by Shudi Yang, Tonghui Zhang, Ping Li

“…Linear codes with a few weights have been extensively studied due to their wide applications in secret sharing schemes, strongly regular graphs, association schemes, and authentication codes. In this paper, we choose the defining sets from two distinct weakly regular plateaued balanced functions, based on a generic construction of linear codes. …”

Stability theory for some scalar finite difference schemes: validity of the modified equations approach* by Dhaouadi Firas, Duval Emilie, Tkachenko Sergey, Vila Jean-Paul

“…Based on these results, we explain when the stability analysis of a given truncation of a modified equation may yield a reasonable estimation of a stability condition for the associated scheme. We illustrate our analysis by some examples of schemes namely for the heat equation and the transport equation.…”

Evolution of structure functions in momentum space by Tuomas Lappi, Heikki Mäntysaari, Hannu Paukkunen, Mirja Tevio

“…We construct a six-dimensional basis of structure functions that allows for a full three flavor structure and thereby provides a way to calculate perturbative predictions for physical cross sections directly without unobservable parton distribution functions (PDFs) and without the associated scheme dependence. We derive the DGLAP equations to first non-zero order in strong coupling $$\alpha _\textrm{s}$$ α s , but the approach can be pursued to arbitrary order in perturbation theory. …”
