user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Log Correlations and Random Matrices' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Random Matrix Theory has been of central importance in Mathematical Physics for over 50 years. It has deep connections with many other areas of Mathematics and a remarkably wide range of applications.  In 2012, a new avenue of research was initiated linking Random Matrix Theory to the highly active area of Probability Theory concerned with the extreme values of logarithmically correlated Gaussian fields, such as the branching random walk and the two-dimensional Gaussian Free Field. This connects the extreme value statistics of the characteristic polynomials of random matrices asymptotically to those of the Gaussian fields in question, allowing some important and long-standing open questions to be addressed for the first time. It has led to a flurry of activity and significant progress towards proving some of the main conjectures. A remarkable discovery has been that the characteristic polynomials of random matrices exhibit, asymptotically, a hierarchical branching/tree structure like that of the branching random walk.  However, many of the most important questions remain open. My aim is to attack some of these problems using ideas and techniques that have so far not been applied to them: I believe it is possible to compute some important statistical quantities relating to the extreme values of characteristic polynomials exactly, for the first time, by establishing connections with integrable systems, representation theory, and enumerative combinatorics.  Such connections have not previously been explored.  I anticipate that this will have a significant impact on an area that is currently in a rapid phase of development and that it will settle some of the principal unresolved conjectures. I further believe that ideas exploiting the hierarchical branching structure may ha

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'European Marine Biology Resource Centre preparatory phase 2' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

EMBRC is a distributed infrastructure of marine biology and ecology, encompassing aquaculture and biotechnology, exploiting the latest “omics”, analytical and imaging technologies, and providing on site and remote scientific and technical services to the scientific community of the public and private sector. EMBRC successfully completed a preparatory phase in early in 2014 with the production of a business plan and a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed by 9 countries. A host for its headquarters has been chosen and and an ERIC application is in preparation. Since only institutions from 5 MoU signatory countries went through the preparatory phase, the present proposal has as objectives: 1) to harmonize the access mechanism to the operational EMBRC-ERIC across all the partners, putting all the practical tools in place, including host contracts and single point online access platform, to enable EMBRC-ERIC to commence its access program; 2) to put in place practical guidelines towards the full implementation of the new European and international legislation and commitments on access and fair benefit sharing of the use of marine biological resources, thus providing clarity to future users of EMBRC-ERIC about their legal rights over obtained biological resources, and positioning itself globally as a broker between users and the supplying countries ; 3) to focus the smart specialization of the regions onto the opportunities marine biological resources offer for blue-biotech development and innovation, thus demonstrating the member states that EMBRC is a tool towards economic development of their maritime regions, and enticing them to sign the EMBRC-ERIC, and prioritize its sustained support, particularly from regions which are now underrepresented in EMBRC (Black and Balt

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'HOST FACTORS THAT FACILITATE AND RESTRICT HIV-1 REPLICATION' (2007-2013) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The efficient replication and spread of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1), the causative agent of the AIDS pandemic, requires that it parasitize an array of cellular proteins, many of which are unknown or uncharacterized, to facilitate its replication. In addition the virus must also defeat or subvert the human immune defences arrayed against it. Some of these immune defences, the innate retroviral restriction factors, have the capacity not only to directly interfere with the replication of the virus, but potentially to relay the information of its presence to activate a wider immune response – so called innate immune ‘sensing’. Molecular characterization of these processes for in vitro and in vivo replication of HIV-1 are essential for our understanding of the pathogenesis of HIV/AIDS. Additionally, it will provide strategies for the development of novel therapeutics for HIV treatment, and also potentially provide new paradigms that are applicable to other pathogenic mammalian viruses. To fill these gaps in our understanding this application seeks 5 years of ERC Starter Grant funding to explore two major research aims. Firstly we propose to characterize the interactions of retroviral restriction factors with the wider systemic immune response focusing on Tetherin/CD317/BST2 as a model system. In particular we will build on preliminary data suggesting that Tetherin can act as a general “pattern recognition molecule” for sensing assembling enveloped viruses by: A) transducing a proinflammatory signal and B) targeting nascent viral particles for antigen processing and presentation. Secondly we will apply novel genetic methods based on a haploid human cell line to identify, isolate and characterize human proteins that are required for early post-entry events

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Strategic Dialogue on Sustainable Raw Materials for Europe' (STRADE).

assistant: **Concept**

STRADE addresses the long-term security and sustainability of the European raw material supply from European and non-European countries. It will develop dialogue-based, innovative policy recommendations for a European strategy on future raw-material supplies.STRADE will initially concentrate on the industry perspective. Based on an analysis of the European mineral raw-material mining sector’s competitiveness, the objective is to provide a strategy on how the EU can work to promote mining investment into and within the EU. Areas in which there is a need to revisit and improve present policies and conditions to advance European competitiveness for inward investments will be identified.STRADE also addresses equipment and service suppliers, exploration companies and investors. EU-level dialogues should be initiated with mineral-producing countries to support European businesses in these sectors within non-EU countries. These activities will also serve as a gateway to future cooperation between the EU and other raw-material-producing countries and will often address environmental challenges in the mining sector.Subsequently, STRADE will focus on government level and the EU’s relation to mineral-producing countries. Based to the mapping of present EU and member-state engagements as well as those engagements of non-EU countries, it will provide analyses on how the EU can renew its engagement with mineral-producing countries aiming at a larger EU strategy to ensure fair and unrestricted access to mineral raw materials worldwide.A specific objective towards the goals of environmental and social sustainability is the development of new concepts for Europe’s role in international action towards sustainable mining and processing.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'OPEN TRANSLATION ENVIRONMENT FOR LOCALIZATION' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of OTELO is to meet the industrial need for compatible, powerful, and user-friendly language products. The project will develop an integrated environment to improve the availability, cost-effectiveness, and productivity of translation services. All aspects of the translation cycle will be covered, including integration with work flow and document management systems, and network- based access to machine or human translation facilities. Two major commercial machine translation systems will be adapted to OTELO specifications to allow for the sharing and reuse of existing expensive linguistic resources.Progress The OTELO project has successfully completed a number of significant work packages, including: - business plan, - user requirements, - market assessment, - system design, - the OTELO client demonstrator. The project has developed a first prototype client, which is promoting use of online translation tools and stimulating further requirements and refinements. Market Assessment and User Survey The OTELO user survey was conducted with the aid of a questionnaire tool 'Quest' allowing a executable to be sent out or used online and automated evaluation of replies. The detailed survey with 160 questions received 107 replies. The results showed that over 95% of organisations use non-automated methods and 43% use machine translation, 46% using translation memories. Only 9% use online services, but 28% plan to do so soon. Nearly 60% of respondents wanted high quality translation services, whilst 51% were satisfied with some availability of output. The greatest demand (over 92%) was for access to terminology databases. Recent analyses estimated annual translation volume in Western Europe alone at between 400-450 million pages. Estimates for the year 2000 go as high as 1

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'SAFE: Tsunami early warning System using Availableseafloor Fiber cablEs' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

According to the World Health Organization, more than 700 million people live in low-lying coastal areas and Small Island Developing States exposed to extreme sea-level events including tsunamis. The cost of the most reliable currently-available tsunami warning systems (based on offshore sensors) is extremely high and essentially only affordable to rich countries like the US or Japan. As such, the vast majority of all this endangered population is not yet protected by this type of tsunami warning system. Luckily, the vast majority of these coastal areas have already-available fibre-optic cables installed (for communication purposes) which could additionally serve as a key component for tsunami early warning, at a marginal extra cost. The objective of this project is to fulfill the need of protecting these communities, which often have limited resources, by providing a tsunami early warning solution based on the already-available fibre optic infrastructure. The solution provided in this project will be simple to deploy and maintain (just connecting an interrogator in the dry end of the fiber-optic cable), low cost (it will be several orders of magnitude cheaper than current systems), reliable (tsunami alerts will be confirmed by the same device using indirect measurements of sea level) and timely (the response time is expected to be faster than current systems). The main market of this solution will be official meteorological and environmental institutions of different countries responsible for issuing early warnings.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Carbon NANOTUBE MEMbranes by Templated Growth in Oriented Molecular Sieve Films'.

assistant: **Concept**

Recently, carbon nanotube membranes attracted attention because of experiments and simulations indicating extremely high fluxes. If selective separations can also be demonstrated, these membranes will be a major breakthrough in efficient gas, liquid and vapor separations with tremendous implications in energy efficiency, especially in hydrocarbon separations, water purification and microdevices for hydrogen purification and storage. The currently used multi-step microfabrication procedures, although appropriate for laboratory scale measurements, do not allow for efficient and economic production of the large membrane areas (e.g., hundred square meters) needed for membrane based purification applications nor they provide means for precisely controlling nanotube size and structure that may be desirable for highly selective separations. We propose to undertake the challenge to develop practical selective nanotube membranes by growing submicron thick, densely-packed, subnanometer diameter carbon nanotubes in the interior of the pores of oriented aluminophoshate (AlPO4) molecular sieve films. The proposed use of AlPO4 films as hosts of carbon nanotubes is motivated by previous studies that demonstrate carbon nanotube synthesis inside the micropores of AlPO4 crystalline powders and builds on our ability to grow well-intergrown and appropriately oriented AlPO4 films. If successful, we expect to form high concentration of oriented and uniformly sized carbon nanotubes extending throughout the molecular sieve channels. It is possible that membranes with unprecedented performance (high selectivity and extremely high flux) will be the ultimate outcome of this work. Moreover, the growth technique that we propose to develop and the resulting oriented carbon nanotube films may be of i

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fifth Framework proposal for the project 'Compression wood in conifers - the characterisation of its formation and its relevance to timber quality'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Compression wood is known as one of the major problems in the wood processing industry. This project aims to increase our knowledge of the mechanisms of compression wood formation with a view to linking raw material properties to the end product performance of construction wood. The mechanisms of compression wood formation will be studied along with the impact of silvicultural processes on wood quality. The relationship between wood quality parameters and the properties of the end product will be determined in order to meet the demands of the endures. This research will help to integrate the entire wood chain from the primary forest production to the end user. The output of the project will be advanced decision supporting tools in the form of predictive models linking silviculturalpractice with raw material properties and the end product performance.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Project PEA (Photosynthesis and Earth Atmospheres): Investigating the effect of evolutionary adaptation to high atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations in fossil and living plants'.

assistant: **Concept**

Photosynthesis is of critical importance to biodiversity, food security and society within the context of current climate change.  The photosynthetic responses of plants to rising atmospheric CO2 have been studied in experiments where CO2 is artificially enriched to predicted levels.  However, these experiments involve plants adapted to current “low” ambient levels of ~380ppm CO2, and do not incorporate consideration of plant evolutionary adaptation of photosynthesis, where the physiology of plants adjust to long-term incremental CO2 rises.  Plants growing around volcanic CO2 degassing vents possess an evolutionary adaptation to “high” atmospheric CO2 and display markedly different responses than plants adapted to lower ambient CO2.  Plants adapted to “high” CO2 exhibit pronounced photosynthetic rates, no down-regulation of photosynthetic physiology and maintenance of transpiration rates – all important parameters for coupled atmosphere-biosphere models of climate, vegetation and carbon sequestration responses to aid management and mitigation of future climate change.  These evolutionary responses to CO2 are also present in the plant fossil record over timescales of millions of years.  The stomata of fossil plants are used to reconstruct past atmospheric levels of CO2 in the study of previous global-warming events that provide important climate/biodiversity indicators for the current global-warming crisis.  The use of living plants adapted to both “high” and “low” atmospheric CO2, in comparative physiology/morphology studies under elevated CO2, will provide much needed data on likely plant responses to rising CO2 and those of plant fossils through earth history.  This will place Europe at the forefront of plant evolution and palaeoclimatic research; linking two European

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Hybrid Optomechanical Technologies' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The hybrid optomechanical technologies (HOT) consortium will lay the foundation for a new generation of devices, which connect, or indeed contain, several platforms at the nanoscale in a single “hybrid” system. As hybrid interfaces they will allow to harness the unique advantages of each subsystem within a nano-scale footprint, while as integrated hybrid devices they will enable entirely novel functionalities.  A particular focus will be on nano-optomechanical devices that comprise electrical, microwave or optical systems with micro- and nano-mechanical systems. Research in the past decade, in particular by European groups, has shown the significant technological potential that such nano-optomechanical systems can offer, in particular by establishing a new way in which optical, radio-frequency and microwave signals can be interfaced. The present consortium includes leading academic groups and industrial partners to explore the potential of these hybrid-nano-optomechanical systems. It will explore hybrid opto- and electro-mechanical devices operating at the physical limit for conversion, synthesis, processing, sensing and measurement of EM fields, comprising radio, microwave frequencies to the terahertz domain. These spectral domains open realistic applications in the existing application domains of medical (e.g. MRI imaging), security (e.g. Radar and THz monitoring), positioning, timing and navigations (Oscillators) and for future quantum technology. The research aims at specific technological application, with realistic operating conditions and seeks to develop actual system demonstrators. In addition, it will explore how these hybrid transducers can be fabricated within standard CMOS processing, and thereby be made compatible with current manufacturing methods. The HO
