Open AccessRigorous analysis of the interaction problem of sea ice with a rigid body
Consider the set of equations modeling the motion of a rigid body enclosed in sea ice. Using Hibler’s viscous-plastic model for describing sea ice, it is shown by a certain decoupling approach that this system...

Open AccessNucleoside Phosphorylases make N7-xanthosine
Modern, highly evolved nucleoside-processing enzymes are known to exhibit perfect regioselectivity over the glycosylation of purine nucleobases at N9. We herein report an exception to this paradigm. Wild-type nuc...

Open AccessRelaxed notions of Condorcet-consistency and efficiency for strategyproof social decision schemes
Social decision schemes (SDSs) map the preferences of a group of voters over some set of m alternatives to a probability distribution over the alternatives. A seminal characterization of strategyproof SDSs by Gib...

Open AccessRigorous Analysis and Dynamics of Hibler’s Sea Ice Model
This article develops for the first time a rigorous analysis of Hibler’s model of sea ice dynamics. Identifying Hibler’s ice stress as a quasilinear second-order operator and regarding Hibler’s model as a quas...

Analyzing the Practical Relevance of the Condorcet Loser Paradox and the Agenda Contraction Paradox
A large part of the social choice literature studies voting paradoxes in which seemingly mild properties are violated by common voting rules. In this chapter, we investigate the likelihood of the Condorcet Los...

TetraPackNet: Four-Corner-Based Object Detection in Logistics Use-Cases
While common image object detection tasks focus on bounding boxes or segmentation masks as object representations, we consider the problem of finding objects based on four arbitrary vertices. We propose a nove...

Exploring the No-Show Paradox for Condorcet Extensions
An important and surprising phenomenon in voting theory is the No-Show Paradox (NSP), which occurs if a voter is better off by abstaining from an election. While it is known that certain voting rules suffer from ...
