Using the BFKL resummation to fit DIS data: collinear and running coupling effects
The proton structure function F2 is studied in the low x regime using BFKL
evolution. The next to leading logarithmic (NLL) analysis requires the
inclusion of running coupling effects which lead to off-diagonal terms in the
evolution kernel. An all-orders resummation is used to improve the collinear
behavior of the NLL BFKL result. We emphasize the theoretical uncertainties
that appear throughout the analysis and give a comparison to the combined HERA
data.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, proceedings of the XX Workshop on Deep-Inelastic

Traffic event detection framework using social media
This is an accepted manuscript of an article published by IEEE in 2017 IEEE International Conference on Smart Grid and Smart Cities (ICSGSC) on 18/09/2017, available online: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8038595
The accepted version of the publication may differ from the final published version.© 2017 IEEE. Traffic incidents are one of the leading causes of non-recurrent traffic congestions. By detecting these incidents on time, traffic management agencies can activate strategies to ease congestion and travelers can plan their trip by taking into consideration these factors. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in Twitter because of the real-time nature of its data. Twitter has been used as a way of predicting revenues, accidents, natural disasters, and traffic. This paper proposes a framework for the real-time detection of traffic events using Twitter data. The methodology consists of a text classification algorithm to identify traffic related tweets. These traffic messages are then geolocated and further classified into positive, negative, or neutral class using sentiment analysis. In addition, stress and relaxation strength detection is performed, with the purpose of further analyzing user emotions within the tweet. Future work will be carried out to implement the proposed framework in the West Midlands area, United Kingdom.Published versio
Exclusive central production of heavy quarks at the LHC
We study the exclusive production of heavy flavors at central rapidities in
hadron-hadron collisions within the kT factorisation formalism. Since this
involves regions of small Bjorken x in the unintegrated gluon densities, we
include the next-to-leading order BFKL contributions working directly in
transverse momentum representation. Our results are presented in a form
suitable for Monte Carlo implementation.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figur
Fourier Mukai Transforms for Gorenstein Schemes
We extend to singular schemes with Gorenstein singularities or fibered in
schemes of that kind Bondal and Orlov's criterion for an integral functor to be
fully faithful. We also contemplate a criterion for equivalence. We offer a
proof that is new even if we restrict to the smooth case. In addition, we prove
that for locally projective Gorenstein morphisms, a relative integral functor
is fully faithful if and only if its restriction to each fibre also is it.
These results imply the invertibility of the usual relative Fourier-Mukai
transform for an elliptic fibration as a direct corollary.Comment: Final version. To appear in Advances in Mathematic
On The Reduced Canonical Quantization Of The Induced 2D-Gravity
The quantization of the induced 2d-gravity on a compact spatial section is
carried out in three different ways. In the three approaches the supermomentum
constraint is solved at the classical level but they differ in the way the
hamiltonian constraint is imposed. We compare these approaches establishing an
isomorphism between the resulting Hilbert spaces.Comment: 17 pages, plain LaTeX. FTUV/93-15, IFIC/93-10, Imperial-TP/93-94/1
