      This paper analyzes the socioeconomic stratification of achievement in the Chilean voucher system using a census of 4th and 8th graders, a multilevel methodology, and accounting for unobserved selectivity into school sector. ...
    • Saltiel, Seth; Mittal, Tushar; Crempien, Jorge G. F.; Campos Muñoz, Jaime (Frontiers Media, 2020)
      Fracture mechanics theory and seismological observations suggest that slip-rate is constantly changing during earthquake rupture, including dramatic acceleration from static conditions to high velocity sliding followed by ...

      We present a detailed investigation of the variability of 428 C iv and 235 Si iv broad absorption line (BAL) troughs identified in multi-epoch observations of 291 quasars by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-I/II/III. These ...
    • McWethy, David B.; Garreaud Salazar, René Darío; Holz, Andrés; Pederson, Gregory T. (MDPI, 2021)
      The unprecedented size of the 2017 wildfires that burned nearly 600,000 hectares of central Chile highlight a need to better understand the climatic conditions under which large fires develop. Here we evaluate synoptic ...
    • Meruane Naranjo, Viviana; Pichara, K. (Hindawi Publishing Corp., 2016)
      Piezoelectric cantilevered beams have been widely used as vibration-based energy harvesters. Nevertheless, these devices have a narrow frequency band and if the excitation is slightly different there is a significant drop ...
    • Rodríguez Cid, Laura; Qian, Wenjie; Iribarra Araya, Joseline Valentina; Etcheverry Berríos, Álvaro; Martínez Olmos, Eulalia; Choquesillo Lazarte, Duane; Sañudo, Eva Carolina; Roubeau, Olivier; López Periago, Ana María; González Campo, Arántzazu; Planas, José G.; Soler Jauma, Monica; Domingo Maroto, Concepcion; Aliaga Alcalde, Núria (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2021)
      We present a new heteroditopic ligand (3pyCCMoid) that contains the typical skeleton of a curcuminoid (CCMoid) decorated with two 3-pyridyl groups. The coordination of 3pyCCMoid with ZnII centres results in a set of novel ...
    • Moreno, Eduardo (ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2005-12-31)
      A de Bruijn sequence over a finite alphabet of span n is a cyclic string such that all words of length n appear exactly once as factors of this sequence. We extend this definition to a subset of words of length n, ...

      A de Bruijn sequence over a finite alphabet of span n is a cyclic string such that all words of length n appear exactly once as factors of this sequence. We extend this definition to a subset of words of length n, ...
    • Dávila Bonczos, Juan; Guerra, Ignacio (SCUOLA NORMALE SUPERIORE, 2016)
      We consider the problem {-Delta u + u = u(p) + lambda u(q) u > 0 in R-Nu(z) -> 0 as vertical bar z vertical bar -> infinity where p = p* + epsilon, with p* = N+2/N-2, while 1 < q < N+2/N-2 if N >= 4, and 3 < q < 5 if N = ...
    • Campos, Juan F. (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008-03-01)
      In this work we consider the following problem [GRAPHICS] with N/(N - 2) < p < p* = (N + 2)/(N - 2) < q, N >= 3. We prove that if p is fixed, and q is close enough to the critical exponent p*, then there exists a ...
    • Calisto, H.; Clerc Gavilán, Marcel; Rojas, R.; Tirapegui Zurbano, Enrique (2000-10-30)
      We study the dynamics of bubbles in the one dimensional Cahn-Hilliard equation. For a gas of diluted bubbles we find ordinary differential equations describing their interaction which permits us to describe the ulterior ...
    • Dávila Bonczos, Juan; López Ríos, Luis; Sire, Yannick (European Mathematical Society Publishing House, 2017)
      We investigate bubbling solutions for the nonlocal equation Aω s u = up, u &gt; 0 in ω, under homogeneous Dirichlet conditions, where ω is a bounded and smooth domain. The operator As ω stands for two types of nonlocal ...
    • Dávila, Juan; Pistoia, Angela; Vaira, Giusi (Elsevier, 2015)
      Let (M, g) be an n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and Gamma be a non-degenerate closed geodesic of (M, g). We prove that the supercritical problem -Delta(g)u + hu = u(n+1/n+3) (+/-) (epsilon), ...
    • Jaffé, Yara L.; Verheijen, Marc A. W.; Haines, Chris; Yoon, Hyein; Cybulski, Ryan; Montero Castaño, María; Smith, Rory; Chung, Aeree; Deshev, Boris Z.; Fernández, Ximena; van Gorkom, Jacqueline; Poggianti, Bianca M.; Yun, Min S.; Finoguenov, Alexis; Smith, Graham P.; Okabe, Nobuhiro (Oxford Univ Press, 2016)
      In a hierarchical Universe clusters grow via the accretion of galaxies from the field, groups and even other clusters. As this happens, galaxies can lose and/or consume their gas reservoirs via different mechanisms, ...
    • Quistberg, D. Alex; Diez Roux, Ana V.; Bilal, Usama; Moore, Kari; Ortigoza, Ana; Rodriguez, Daniel A.; Sarmiento, Olga L.; Frenz, Patricia; Friche, Amélia Augusta; Caiaffa, Waleska Teixeira; Vives, Alejandra; Miranda, J. Jaime; Alazraqui, Marcio; Spinelli, Hugo; Guevel (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2019)
      © 2018, The Author(s).Studies examining urban health and the environment must ensure comparability of measures across cities and countries. We describe a data platform and process that integrates health outcomes together ...
    • Rios Uribe, Ignacio; Weintraub Pohorille, Andrés; Wets, Roger (Routledge, 2016)
      We analyse how to deal with the uncertainty before solving a stochastic optimization problem and we apply it to a forestry management problem. In particular, we start from historical data to build a stochastic process for ...
    • Muñoz, Caterina; Montoto, Francisco; Bustos Jiménez, Javier; Cifuentes, Francisco (IEEE, 2017)
      The Domain Name System (DNS) has evolved to support the exponential growth of the Internet, by relying heavily on a highly distributed infrastructure. Nevertheless, trust between server must exist in order to guarantee ...
