Organizational Industrial Organization (OIO)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,

"Industrial organization has been influential in shaping our understanding of how firms behave in markets, and also Most of the industrial organization literature is based on the premise that firms are represented by a single decision maker, who is driven by a motive of profit maximization and cost minimization. This assumption is nowadays becoming a constraint on IO theory, preventing it from bei ...

Frontiers of Extended Formulations (FOREFRONT)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2019,

"Linear programming has proved to be an invaluable tool both in theory and practice. Semidefinite programming surpasses linear programming in terms of expressivity while remaining tractable. This project proposal investigates the modeling power of linear and semidefinite programming, in the context of combinatorial optimization. Within the emerging framework of extended formulations (EFs), I seek ...

Genetic links between development and evolution of the human cerebral cortex (GENDEVOCORTEX)

Date du début: 1 août 2014, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2019,

"The mechanisms underlying the evolution of the human brain constitute one of the most fascinating unresolved questions of biology. The cerebral cortex has evolved rapidly in size and complexity in the hominid lineage, which is likely linked to quantitative and qualitative divergence in patterns of cortical development.On the other hand, comparative genomics has revealed recently the existence of ...

Defining the cellular dynamics leading to tissue expansion (EXPAND)

Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2019,

Stem cells (SCs) ensure the development of the different tissues during morphogenesis, their physiological turnover during adult life and tissue repair after injuries. .Our lab has recently developed new methods to study by lineage tracing the cellular hierarchy that sustains homeostasis and repair of the epidermis and to identify distinct populations of SCs and progenitors ensuring mammary gland ...

The Radical Plasticity Thesis: How we learn to be conscious (RADICAL)

Date du début: 1 mai 2014, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2019,

RADICAL explores the idea that consciousness is something that the brain learns to do rather than a static property of certain neural states vs. others. Here, considering that consciousness is extended both in space and in time, I adopt a resolutely dynamical perspective that mandates an experimental approach focused on change, at different time scales. I suggest that consciousness arises as a res ...

Initial Solar System Composition and Early Planetary Differentiation (ISoSyC)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,

Meteorites are privileged witnesses of solar system accretion processes and early planetary evolution. Short-lived radioactive chronometers are particularly adapted in dating and understanding these early differentiation processes. This proposal is dedicated to two main questions: (1) what is the initial composition of the solar system and terrestrial planets?; (2) having refined these parameters, ...

Quantitative methods in stochastic homogenization (QUANTHOM)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,

This proposal deals with the development of quantitative tools in stochastic homogenization, and their applications to materials science. Three main challenges will be addressed.First, a complete quantitative theory of stochastic homogenization of linear elliptic equations will be developed starting from results I recently obtained on the subject combining tools originally introduced for statistic ...

Holography for realistic black holes and cosmologies (HoloBHC)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,

String theory provides with a consistent framework which combines quantum mechanics and gravity. Two grand challenges of fundamental physics - building realistic models of black holes and cosmologies - can be addressed in this framework thanks to novel holographic methods.Recent astrophysical evidence indicates that some black holes rotate extremely fast, as close as 98% to the extremality bound. ...

inVEST: Foundations for a Shift from Verification to Synthesis (INVEST)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,

Reactive systems are computer systems that maintain a continuous interaction with the environment in which they execute. Examples of reactive systems are controllers embedded in cars or planes, system level software, device drivers, communication protocols, etc. On the one hand, those systems are notoriously difficult to develop correctly (because of characteristics like concurrency, real-time c ...

Human Rights versus Democracy? Towards a conceptual genealogy of skepticism about human rights in contemporary Political Thought (RESIST)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,

The aim of this research project is to outline a conceptual genealogy and a critical typology of the theoretical arguments that have been advanced, in the name of democracy, against the dominant human rights discourse of contemporary societies. In light of the prolific literature on human rights in general, we might expect the counter arguments made since the Declarations of 1776 and 1789 to have ...

Symmetries and Dualities in Gravity and M-theory (SYDUGRAM)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,

Despite its considerable success, Einstein theory of gravity is an unfinished revolution: it has limitations both at the microscopic scales and at the macroscopic scales. The objective of this proposal is to provide a better understanding of the gravitational interaction beyond Einstein. This will be done by analyzing, with the aim of identifying it, the symmetry structure underlying the searche ...

A revealed preference analysis of household consumption models (RPH)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,

There is a huge variety in models for consumption behaviour of multi-person households that take into account the individual preferences of household members and the resulting household decision process. The difference stems from the modelling of the household decision process, which can go from non-cooperative behaviour up to explicit bargaining models. The main objective of this project is to cr ...
