Sept ans ont passé depuis ce post.
Et pourtant, la justice n’a toujours pas terminé son travail.
En Belgique, le jugement définitif est tombé en 2022. Mais en 2025, certaines indemnisations sont encore bloquées. Des victimes attendent toujours que leur souffrance soit reconnue dans les faits, pas seulement dans les mots.
En France, l’affaire OKC/Spatz a été relancée en 2017, réouverte officiellement en 2021. Et aujourd’hui ? Toujours aucune mis…

Invariants of twisted current algebras and related Poisson-commutative subalgebras
Let q be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $θ$ an automorphism of q of order m. We extend $θ$ to an automorphism of the loop algebra of q and consider the fixed-point subalgebra $q[t,t^{-1}]^θ$. Using a splitting of $q[t,t^{-1}]^θ$, we construct $θ$-twisted Poisson-commutative versions of the Feigin--Frenkel centre and the universal Gaudin subalgebra introduced by Ilin and Rybnikov in 2021.

Le dossier OKC-Spatz a été rouvert en 2021. Depuis ?
Silence.
La Belgique a jugé.

As people flee climate change on the coasts, this Midwest city is trying to become a safe haven
After visiting Tracy, a woman in California who is ready to flee her dream house to escape wildfires and other effects of climate catastrophe, John Sutter traveled halfway across the country, to Duluth, Minnesota to try to answer her question: Where can she go? Is anywhere safe? It turns out, Tracy isn’t alone in asking the question.

Since its first iteration in 2018, the Lifelog Search Challenge (LSC) continues to rise in popularity as an interactive lifelog data retrieval competition, co-located at the ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval (ICMR). The goal of this annual live event is to search a large corpus of lifelogging data for specifically announced memories using a purposefully developed tool within a limited amount of time. As long-standing participants, we present our improved lifeXplore - a retrie…

When Does Tourism Raise Land Prices? Threshold Effects, Superstar Cities, and Policy Lessons from Japan
While tourism is widely regarded as a catalyst for economic and urban transformation, its effects on land prices remain contested. This study examines tourism and land prices using a panel of 1,724 Japanese municipalities from 2021 to 2024, with annual tourist arrivals as a proxy for tourism activity. Using mediation analysis and panel threshold regression, we show that sizable land price increases are concentrated in a small group of "superstar" cities, specifically those in the top 5.9 percen…

Detecting Narrative Shifts through Persistent Structures: A Topological Analysis of Media Discourse
How can we detect when global events fundamentally reshape public discourse? This study introduces a topological framework for identifying structural change in media narratives using persistent homology. Drawing on international news articles surrounding major events - including the Russian invasion of Ukraine (Feb 2022), the murder of George Floyd (May 2020), the U.S. Capitol insurrection (Jan 2021), and the Hamas-led invasion of Israel (Oct 2023) - we construct daily co-occurrence graphs of n…

Does $K$-fold CV based penalty perform variable selection or does it lead to $n^{1/2}$-consistency in Lasso?

Does $K$-fold CV based penalty perform variable selection or does it lead to $n^{1/2}$-consistency in Lasso?
Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator or Lasso, introduced by Tibshirani (1996), is one of the widely used regularization methods in regression. It is observed that the properties of Lasso vary wildly depending on the choice of the penalty parameter. The recent results of Lahiri (2021) suggest that, depending on the nature of the penalty parameter, Lasso can either be variable selection consistent or be $n^{1/2}-$consistent. However, practitioners generally implement Lasso by choosing…

A Data-Driven Model Predictive Controller to manage epidemics: The case of SARS-CoV-2 in Mauritius
This work investigates the benefits of implementing a systematic approach to social isolation policies during epidemics. We develop a mixed integer data-driven model predictive control (MPC) scheme based on an SIHRD model which is identified from available data. The case of the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (also known as COVID-19) in Mauritius is used as a reference point with data obtained during the period December 2021 to May 2022. The isolation scheme is designed with the control decision…

RLZ-r and LZ-End-r: Enhancing Move-r
In pattern matching on strings, a locate query asks for an enumeration of all the occurrences of a given pattern in a given text. The r-index [Gagie et al., 2018] is a recently presented compressed self index that stores the text and auxiliary information in compressed space. With some modifications, locate queries can be answered in optimal time [Nishimoto & Tabei, 2021], which has recently been proven relevant in practice in the form of Move-r [Bertram et al., 2024]. However, there remains th…

Robustness of Floquet topological phase at room temperature: a first-principles dynamics study
Nonadiabatic Thouless pumping of electrons is studied within the framework of topological Floquet engineering, particularly focused on how atomic lattice dynamics affect the emergent Floquet topological phase in trans-polyacetylene under the driving electric field. As similarly done in the earlier work [Zhou and Kanai, J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 12, 4496 (2021)], the real-time time-dependent density functional theory and Ehrenfest dynamics simulations were used to investigate the extent to which the…
