Marcel Maria Wolfgang Wild was born on 17 July 1958 in Bern (Switzerland). After matriculating from the Gymnasium Rämibühl in Zürich in 1977 he studied Mathematics, Computer Science and (to a lesser degree) Philosophy ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The majority of nonlinear filters used in practise are stack filters. An algorithm is presented which calculates the output distribution of an arbitrary stack filter S from the disjunctive normal form ...

This booklet will highlight some of the mathematics I did after (and during) my PhD that was awarded in 1987. The chosen topics nevertheless constitute a sizeable "transversal" (to use mathematical parlance) of the fields ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Two procedures to compute the output distribution 0S of certain stack filters S (so called erosion-dilation cascades) are given. One rests on the disjunctive normal form of S and also yields the rank ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: While it was known that all models of a Horn formula can be generated in outputpolynomial time, here we present an explicit algorithm as opposed to the rather vague oracle-scheme suggested in the proof ...

The asymptotic number of nonequivalent binary n-codes is determined. This is also the asymptotic number of nonisomorphic binary matroids on n elements.

The Edelman-Jamison problem is to characterize those abstract convex geometries that are representable by a set of points in the plane. We show that some natural modification of the Edelman-Jamison problem is equivalent ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The problem of finding edge-disjoint trees in a hypercube e.g. arises in the context of parallel computing. Independent of applications it is of high aesthetic appeal.

The problem of finding edge-disjoint trees in a hypercube arises for example in the context of parallel computing [3]. Independently of applications it is of high aesthetic appeal. The hypercube of dimension n, denoted ...
