Finite Geometry and Computer Algebra, with Applications
… interplay, in particular looking at geometric canonical forms of figures in various projective spaces under the action of the (projective) general linear group, and finding associated canonical forms for polynomial functions. We deal with some quite complex cases, in particular with the case of …

Artin Groups of Extra-Large Type Are Biautomatic
… {\cal A}\sp*$. The language L(G) is a set of canonical forms for the Artin group. In the case G is an Artin group of extra-large type or a two generator Artin group, we analyze the geometry of the small cancellation theory diagrams and show that L(G) is the language of a biautomatic structure …

Convergence and Boundedness of Probability-One Homotopies for Model Order Reduction
… projection equations and variations based upon canonical forms. These results are essential to the probability-one homotopy approach by guaranteeing good numerical properties in the computational implementation of the homotopy algorithms.

Finite-state canonicalization techniques for historical German
… treated here as an error-correction problem or "canonicalization" task: an attempt to automatically assign each (historical) input word a unique extant canonical cognate, thus allowing direct application-specific processing (tagging, parsing, etc.) of the returned canonical forms without need for …

An acoustic analysis of labialization of coronal nasal consonants in American English
… the variation between natural connected speech forms and the canonical forms of the lexicon. This study focuses on one particular sound change common in conversational speech, in which word-final coronal nasal consonants undergo place assimilation toward following word-initial labial consonants. …

Unipotent elements in algebraic groups
… g = LieG. The first topic is a determination of canonical forms for unipotent classes and nilpotent orbits of G. Using an original approach, we begin by obtaining a new canonical form for nilpotent matrices, up to similarity, which is symmetric with respect to the non-main diagonal (i.e. it is …

Formalisation and execution of Linear Algebra: theorems and algorithms
… involving both the computation of matrix canonical forms and decompositions (such as the Gauss-Jordan algorithm, echelon form, Hermite normal form, and QR decomposition). The formalisation of these algorithms is also accompanied by the formal proofs of their particular applications such as …

Sentimentalism Made Strange: Shklovsky, Karamzin, Rousseau
… Specifically, it looks at love's literary forms--epistolary, triolet, conte--as models and spaces for autobiography, and compares love and self-expression as two literary phenomena that, for these three authors, demand the undoing of cultural mores as the means for their artistic portrayal. …

How to Mend a Broken Heart: Massive Endocytosis and the Role of Lipidic Forces in Membrane Trafficking
Novel forms of membrane internalization defined as massive endocytosis (MEND) were characterized for mechanism and physiological significance in isolated cells and intact cardiac tissue. These non-canonical forms of membrane trafficking are related to perturbations within the outer lipid monolayer …

A framework for space systems architecting under stakeholder objectives ambiguity
… Management Framework (SA-MF) to distill canonical forms of ambiguity management from the literature in political science, finance and economics, management, and engineering design. The third part of the dissertation presents a Delphi-Based Systems Architecting Framework (DB-SAF). DB-SAF …

Topological evolution of networks : case studies in the US airlines and language Wikipedias
… graph generative models, we develop a profile of canonical graphs and tools to compare a real network to that profile. The developed metrics are used to track topology changes over the history of real networks. This theoretical work is applied to two case studies. The first discusses the US …

Grid Domains for Analysing Software
… gives algorithms and methods for computing canonical forms, conversion between the descriptions and the main abstract operations needed for software analysis, such as comparison, intersection, join, difference, affine image and pre-image. Also included is a widening operation and we show …
