Raspberry Pi machen die Speicherpreise zu schaffen
Der Raspi-Hersteller kündigt Preiserhöhungen von 5 bis 10 US-Dollar für einige Produkte an. Schuld sind steigende Speicherpreise.

Science Fiction und Fantasy im August 2025
Ich fange mit einem Buch an, das eigentlich eher ein Sachbuch ist - Mark McCaughreans "Reiseführer" 111 places in space that you must not miss (2023). Der Titel beschreibt eigentlich auch schon ganz gut, was es mit diesem Buch auf sich hat, das wohl tatsächlich in einer Reihe erschienen ist, die auc

A Survey on a Pair of Diophantine Equations
Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}. $$ Furthermore, the solution is unique. This paper surveys recent results on finding the solution and determining which equation is used when $a$ and $b$ are taken from certain sequences. We contribute to the literature by finding $(x,y)$ when…

Holistic Order Prediction in Natural Scenes
Even in controlled settings, understanding instance-wise geometries is a challenging task for a wide range of visual models. Although specialized systems exist, modern arts rely on expensive input formats (category labels, binary segmentation masks) and inference costs (a quadratic amount of forward passes). We mitigate these limitations by proposing InstaFormer, a network capable of holistic order prediction. That is, solely given an input RGB image, InstaFormer returns the full occlusion and …

Sequences of surfaces in $4$-manifolds
Let $(Σ_n)$ be a sequence of surfaces immersed in a $4$-manifold $M$ which converges to a branched surface $Σ_0$ .\\ We denote by $k^T_p$ (resp. $k^N_p$) the amount of curvature of the tangent bundles $TΣ_n$ (resp. normal bundles $NΣ_n$) which concentrates around a branch point $p$ of $Σ_0$ when $n$ goes to infinity. Alternatively $k^T\pm k^N$ measures how much the twistor degrees drop when we go from $Σ_n$ to $Σ_0$. For complex algebraic curves, $k^T+k^N=0$..\\ In some instances - 1) if…

On the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formula modulo squares for certain quadratic twists of elliptic curves
Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with conductor $N=N_+N_-$, where $N_+$ and $N_-$ are coprime and $N_-$ is squarefree. Let $D$ be a positive fundamental discriminant satisfying the modified Heegner hypothesis with respect to $(N_+,N_-)$: primes dividing $N_+$ (resp. $N_-$) split (resp. are inert) in $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$; we denote by $E^D/\mathbb{Q}$ the quadratic twist of $E/\mathbb{Q}$ by $D$. In the first half of the paper we consider the situation where $N_-$ is a squarefree produc…
