We construct a functor from the derived category of homotopy Gerstenhaber algebras, g, with finite-dimensional cohomology to the purely geometric category of so-called F ∞-manifolds. The latter contains Frobenius manifolds as a subcategory (so that a pointed Frobenius manifold is itself a homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra). If g happens to be formal as a L ∞-algebra, then its F ∞-manifold comes equ...

Energy efficiency is a major concern in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Many clustering algorithms have been proposed for such a purpose. This paper investigates the existing clustering algorithms. The algorithms have been classified and some representatives are described in each category. After analyzing the strengths and the weaknesses of each category, an important characteristic of WSNs is...

1 .l Summary IN [l] QUILLEN introduced the notion of a model category (a category together with three classes of maps: weak equivalences, fibrations and cofibrations, satisfying certain axioms (1.4 (iv))) as a general framework for “doing homotopy theory”. To each model category M there is associated a homotopy category. If W C M denotes the subcategory of the weak equivalences, then this homot...

The aim of this paper is to define and study pointed and multi-pointed partition posets of type A and B (in the classification of Coxeter groups). We compute their characteristic polynomials, incidence Hopf algebras and homology groups. As a corollary, we show that some operads are Koszul over Z. Introduction For every finite Weyl group W , there exists a generalized partition poset (cf. [2]) d...
