Titre: The filtering approach to solvent peak suppression in MRS: a critical review
Références: Journal of Magnetic Resonance 152 (2001) 26-40
Résumé: Suppressing the solvent peak is important in many applications of biomedical NMR spectroscopy in order to quantify the metabolites with a great accuracy. Among the postprocessing methods proposed in the literature, many are dealing with the concept of filtering. However, several proposals lack a theoretical perspective and some have not been explicitly applied to quantification problems. The present article is intended to bridge this gap: 5 methods are analysed from a theoretical perspective. Then, the different methods are applied to the same set of data and then the latter are quantified using the model fitting method AMARES. With our set, the scheme proposed by T.~Sundin etal ({em J. Magn. Reson.}, 139(2):189--204, 1999) proved to be the most reliable method.
Keywords: Peak suppression, Quantitation, Filter, Time-frequency analysis

Titre: Two-dimensional directional wavelets as a symmetry scanner
Références: Contemporary Problems in Mathematical Physics (Proc. First Int.Workshop, Cotonou, Bénin, Nov.1999), 2000, pp.47-60, J.Govaerts, M.N.Hounkonnou, W.A.Lester, Jr. (eds.)
Résumé: The analysis of oriented features in images requires 2-D directional wavelets, for instance, in standard tasks such as edge detection or directional filtering. In addition, we present here a new application, namely, a technique for determining all the (statistical) symmetries of a given pattern with respect to rotations and dilations. Examples are Penrose tilings, mathematical quasicrystals or various quasiperiodic planar point sets or patterns.

Titre: Coherent states, wavelets and beyond
Références: Contemporary Problems in Mathematical Physics (Proc. First Int.Workshop, Cotonou, Bénin, Nov.1999), 2000, pp.3-46, J.Govaerts, M.N.Hounkonnou, W.A.Lester, Jr. (eds.)
Résumé: The first lecture describes classical coherent states (CS), starting from the (canonical) harmonic oscillator CS, and proceeding to the theory of Gilmore and Perelomov, who derive CS from suitable (square integrable) group representations. The second lecture is devoted to a highly successful example, namely wavelets, which are simply the CS of the affine group of the line (dilations and translations) or the similitude group of the plane, for the 2-D case. In the third lecture, we conclude with a far-reaching generalization of the classical theory, namely CS associated with a group representation which is square integrable only over a homogeneous manifold of the group. This case, while technically more involved, covers a whole family of groups inaccessible to the standard Gilmore--Perelomov approach, and among them, in particular, the relativity groups.

Titre: Stability of Cahn-Hilliard fronts

Résumé: We prove stability of the kink solution of the Cahn-Hilliard equation $\partial_t u = \partial_x^2 \bigl( - \partial_x^2 u - u /2 + u^3 / 2 \bigr),$ $x \in {\BbbR}$. The proof is based on an inductive Renormalization Group method and we obtain detailed asymptotics of the solution as $t\to\infty$.

Titre: Phases and Amplitudes in Inclusive $\Psi$ and $\Psi'$ Decays
Références: Phys. Lett. B 462 (1999) pp. 324-328 hep-ph/9906357
Résumé: In inclusive decays of the $\Psi$ (3097), electromagnetic and gluonic annihilation amplitudes add incoherently, namely they are 90$^\circ$ out of phase. We argue that this incoherence must persist in each exclusive decay channel. For inclusive $\Psi'$ (3686) decays, we suggest the absence of a significant direct annihilation amplitude into three gluons and propose a new amplitude via QCD anomalies and the $h_c$ (3526) off shell. Phenomenological implications for exclusive decay channels are pointed out.

Titre: Wavelet analysis of a quasiperiodic tiling with fivefold symmetry
Références: Physics Letters A261 (1999) pp. 265-274
Résumé: We determine all (statistical) rotation-dilation symmetries of a planar quasiperiodic tiling with fivefold symmetry, with a two-dimensional continuous wavelet transform, using a modified Cauchy wavelet and the scale-angle measure. The tiling is constructed via an affine extension of the Coxeter group $H_2$ and its statistical symmetries were unknown.

Titre: Symmetric Boundary Conditions in Boundary Critical Phenomena
Références: J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 32 (1999) 8831-8850
hep-th/9904100
Résumé: Conformally invariant boundary conditions for minimal models on a cylinder are classified by pairs of Lie algebras $(A,G)$ of ADE type. For each model, we consider the action of its (discrete) symmetry group on the boundary conditions. We find that the invariant ones correspond to the nodes in the product graph $A imes G$ that are fixed by some automorphism. We proceed to determine the charges of the fields in the various Hilbert spaces, but, in a general minimal model, many consistent solutions occur. In the unitary models $(A,A)$, we show that there is a unique solution with the property that the ground state in each sector of boundary conditions is invariant under the symmetry group. In contrast, a solution with this property does not exist in the unitary models of the series $(A,D)$ and $(A,E_6)$. A tempting interpretation of this fact is that a certain (large) number of invariant boundary conditions have unphysical (negative) classical boundary Boltzmann weights. We give a tentative characterization of the problematic boundary conditions.

Résumé: I will review the constraints that the no hidden variable theorems put on the interpretations of quantum mechanics and on the locality of the universe. I will also briefly explain how Bohm's theory gives a clear and objective meaning to the wave function and, at the same time, explains in the simplest possible way the most paradoxical aspects of quantum mechanics.

Titre: Mixing of two-level unstable systems
Références: Eur.Phys.J. C9 (1999) pp.409-411
hep-ph/9805201
Résumé: Unstable particles can be consistently described in the framework of quantum field theory. Starting from the full S-matrix amplitudes of $B^+ \to (2\pi, 3\pi)l^+ \nu$ decays as examples in the energy region where the $\rho-\omega$ resonances are dominating, we propose a prescription for the mixing of two quasi `physical' unstable states that differs from the one obtained from the diagonalization of the $M-i\Gamma/2$ non-hermitian hamiltonian. We discuss some important consequences for CP violation in the $K_L - K_S$ system.

Titre: Galilean wavelets: Coherent states of the affine Galilei group
Références: Journal of Mathematical Physics 40 (1999) pp. 5956-5971
Résumé: We derive Galilean wavelets, by which we mean coherent states of the affine Galilei group, that is, the Galilei group extended by independent space and time dilations. The construction follows a general method based on square integrable group representations, possibly modulo a subgroup, i.e., on a homogeneous space of the underlying group. We also examine the restriction to the Schrödinger subgroup, which contains only dilations that leave invariant the Schrödinger and the heat equations.

Titre: KAM Theorem and Quantum Field Theory
Références: Communications in Mathematical Physics 201 (1999) 699-727
Résumé: We give a new proof of the KAM theorem for analytic Hamiltonians. The proof is inspired by a quantum field theory formulation of the problem and is based on a renormalization group argument treating the small denominators inductively scale by scale. The crucial cancellations of resonances are shown to follow from the Ward identities expressing the translation invariance of the corresponding field theory.

Résumé: We examine general aspects of parity functions arising in rational conformal field theories, as a result of Galois theoretic properties of modular transformations. We focus more specifically on parity functions associated with affine Lie algebras, for which we give two efficient formulas. We investigate the consequences of these for the modular invariance problem.

Titre: Wavelets on the 2-sphere and related manifolds
Références: Proc. Workshop on geometrical methods in physics (Bialowiecza, July 1997) - Reports on Mathematical Physics 43 (1999) pp. 13-24
Résumé: We present a group theoretical derivation of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on the 2-sphere, based on the construction of coherent states associated to square integrable group representations. The parameter space X is the product of SO(3) X R^+_*, embedded into the Lorentz group SO(3,1) via the Iwasawa decomposition, and X = SO(3,1)/C. The space L^2(S^2) carries a unitary irreducible representation of SO(3,1) which is square integrable over X, and thus yields the wavelets on S^2 and the associated CWT.

Titre: Isospin Amplitudes and CP violation in $(B\to K \pi)$ Decays
Références: Eur. Phys. J. C 7 (1999) pp. 1-3 hep-ph/9711469
Résumé: We present a simple isospin invariant parametrization for $(B \to K\pi)$ decay amplitudes which consistently includes CP violation and (quasi-elastic) hadronic final states interactions. We find that the observed $(B \to K\pi)$ decays do not lead to a significant bound on the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle. On the other hand, we claim that a sizeable CP violation asymmetry in $(B^{\pm} \to K\pi^{\pm})$ rates is by no means excluded.

Titre: Wavelets on the 2-sphere: a group theoretical approach.
Références: Applied and Computational Harmonic Analysis 7 (1999) pp. 262-291
Résumé: We present a purely group-theoretical derivation of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on the 2-sphere $S^2$, based on the construction of general coherent states associated to square integrable group representations. The parameter space $X$ of our CWT, is the product of $SO_o(3,1)$ via the Iwasawa decomposition, so that $X \simeq SO_o(3,1)/N$, where $N \simeq \BC$. We select an appropriate unitary representation of $SO_o(3,1)$ acting in the space $L^2(S^2,d\mu)$ of finite energy signals on $S^2$. This representation is square integrable over $X$, thus it yields immediately the wavelets on $S^2$ and the associated CWT. We find a necessary condition for the admissibility of a wavelet, in the form of a zero mean condition. Finally, the Euclidean limit of this CWT on $S^2$ is obtained by redoing the construction on a sphere of radius $R$ and performing a group contraction for $R \to \infty$. Then the parameter space goes into the similitude group of $R^2$ and one recovers exactly the CWT on the plane, including the usual zero mean necessary condition for admissibility.

Titre: Topological partial *-algebras: Basic properties and examples
Références: Reviews in Mathematical Physics 11 (1999) pp. 267-302
Résumé: Let $A$ be a partial *-algebra endowed with a topology $\tau$ that makes it into a locally convex topological vector space $A[ \tau]$. Then $A$ is called a topological partial *-algebra if it satisfies a number of conditions, which all amount to require that the topology $\tau$ fits with the multiplier structure of $A$. Besides the obvious cases of topological quasi *-algebras and CQ*-algebras, we examine several classes of potential topological partial *-algebras, either function spaces (lattices of $L^p$ spaces on $[0,1]$ or on $BR$, amalgam spaces), or partial *-algebras of operators (operators on a partial inner product space, $O$*-algebras).

Titre: Directional wavelets revisited: Cauchy wavelets and symmetry detection in patterns

Résumé: We introduce a new class of 2-D directional wavelets, called the Cauchy wavelets, strictly supported in a (narrow) convex cone in spatial frequency space. They have excellent angular selectivity, as shown by a standard calibration test and they have minimal uncertainty. As an application, we present a new technique for determining the symmetries of a given pattern with respect to rotations and dilation.

Résumé: Cet article confronte les points de vues de Poinsot et de Poisson à propos de la notion de couple. Le dernier, qui ne considère que les composantes des forces n'en voit pas l'utilité. Le premier, par contre, se montre fier d'introduire un nouvel objet mathématique pour représenter ce couple. Il s'agit, dans notre langage actuel, du vecteur axial (le moment). Poinsot l'introduit parce qu'il concentre les propriétés du couple et surtout parce qu'il a la propriété d'obéir à la même loi de composition que la force elle-même, que le vecteur glissant dans notre langage.

Références: Mathematische Nachrichten vol 204 (1999) pp. 5-28
Résumé: A spatial theory is developed for *-derivations of an algebra of unbounded operators, in terms of the concept of O*-dynamical systems. Three notions of spatiality emerge, depending on the nature of the corresponding generator. Special emphasis is put on O*-dynamical systems generated by one-paramater groups of *-automorphisms and their *-derivations.
