We present an explicit method to produce upper bounds for the dimension of the moduli spaces of complete integral Gorenstein curves with prescribed symmetric Weierstrass semigroups.

purpose : to evaluate the effect of intraviteral bevacizumab (ivb) in diabetic macular edema (dme), using multifocal electroretinography (mferg) methods : sixty-four eyes of 32 patients with bilateral symmetric clinically significant macular edema (csme) were included in the study. after taking a baseline mferg, macular photocoagulation (mpc) was done in all eyes. after 7 days, 1.25 mg of bevac...

Physics-based animation of soft or rigid bodies for real-time applications often suffers from numerical instabilities. We analyse one of the most common sources of unwanted behaviour: the numerical integration strategy. To assess the impact of popular integration methods, we consider a scenario where soft and hard constraints are added to a custom designed deformable linear object. Since the go...

In this paper we consider the numerical solution of large-scale projected generalized continuous-time and discrete-time Sylvester equations with low-rank right-hand sides. First, we present the results on the sufficient conditions for the existence, uniqueness, and analytic formula of the solutions of these equations. Second, we review the low-rank alternating direction implicit method and the ...

We propose an approach to model a smooth surface from a surface triangulation by implicit surface patches which are subsets of zero contours of trivariate functions defined on a collection of irregular triangular prisms. Comparing with the earlier approaches of surface modeling by implicit surfaces, the proposed scheme uses much less patches, and can easily capture sharp features. Furthermore, ...

Current methods for building models using implicit volume techniques present problems defining accurate and controllable blend shapes between implicit primitives. We present new methods to extend the freedom and controllability of implicit volume modeling. The main idea is to use a free-form curve to define the profile of the blend region between implicit primitives. The use of a free-form impl...
