Amour Killing?

Unicode et typographie : un amour impossible

In this paper we give a new approach to the concepts of glyph and character, applied to the study of the Unicode encoding. After a thorough discussion of these two concepts, we describe the other fundamental ingredients of the encoding: privileged glyphs, character descriptions, combining characters, and properties. In each case we try to show the importance of the given notion and at the same ...

AMOUR-generalized multicarrier transceivers for blind CDMA regardless of multipath

Suppression of multiuser interference (MUI) and mitigation of multipath effects constitute major challenges in the design of thirdgeneration wireless mobile systems. Most wideband and multicarrier uplink CDMA schemes suppress MUI statistically in the presence of unknown multipath. For fading resistance, they all rely on transmitor receivediversity and multichannel equalization based on bandwidt...

Killing begets killing: evidence from a bug-killing paradigm that initial killing fuels subsequent killing.

Killing appears to perpetuate itself even in the absence of retaliation. This phenomenon may occur in part as a means to justify prior killing and so ease the threat of prior killing. In addition, this effect should arise particularly when a killer perceives similarity to the victims because similarity should exacerbate threat from killing. To examine these ideas, the authors developed a bug-ki...

Killing Tensors and Conformal Killing Tensors from Conformal Killing Vectors

Koutras has proposed some methods to construct reducible proper conformal Killing tensors and Killing tensors (which are, in general, irreducible) when a pair of orthogonal conformal Killing vectors exist in a given space. We give the completely general result demonstrating that this severe restriction of orthogonality is unnecessary. In addition we correct and extend some results concerning Ki...
