description: Introducing quantum confinement has uncovered a rich set of interesting quantum phenomena and allows one to directly probe the physics of confined (quasi-)particles. In most experiments, however, electrostatic potential is the only available method to generate the quantum confinement in a continuous system. Here, we demonstrated experimentally that inhomogeneous pseudomagnetic fields in strained graphene can introduce exotic quantum confinement of massless Dirac fermions. The pseudomagnetic fields have opposite directions in the two distinct valleys of graphene. By tuning real magnetic field, the total effective magnetic fields in the two valleys are imbalanced. Then, we realized valley-contrasting spatial confinement, which lifts the valley degeneracy and results in field-tunable valley-polarized confined states in graphene. Our results provide a new avenue to manipulate the valley degree of freedom.

description: K-theory provides a framework for classifying Ramond-Ramond (RR) charges and fields. K-theory of manifolds has a natural extension to K-theory of noncommutative algebras, such as the algebra considered in noncommutative Yang-Mills theory or in open string field theory. In a number of concrete problems, the K-theory analysis proceeds most naturally if one starts out with an infinite set of D-branes, reduced by tachyon condensation to a finite set. This suggests that string field theory should be reconsidered for N=infinity.

description: Low-energy medium-luminosity Muon Collider (MC) is being studied as a possible Higgs Factory (HF). Electrons from muon decays will deposit more than 300 kW in superconducting magnets of the HF collider ring. This imposes significant challenges to superconducting (SC) magnets used in the MC storage ring (SR) and interaction regions (IR). The magnet designs are proposed which provide high operating gradient and magnetic field in a large aperture to accommodate the large size of muon beams due to low \b{eta}* as well as the cooling system to intercept the large heat deposition from the showers induced by decay electrons. Specific distribution of heat deposition in the lattice elements MC SR requires large aperture magnets to accommodate thick high-Z absorbers to protect the SC coils. Based on the developed MARS15 model and intense simulations, a sophisticated radiation protection system was designed for the collider SR and IR to bring the peak power density in the superconducting coils below the quench limit and reduce the dynamic heat deposition in the cold mass by a factor of 100. The system consists of tight tungsten masks in the magnet interconnect regions and elliptical tungsten liners in magnet aperture optimized for each magnet. It also reduces the background particle fluxes in the collider detector.

description: By generalizing the auxiliary field term in the Lagrangian of simplicial chiral models on a (d-1)-dimensional simplex, the generalized simplicial chiral models has been introduced in \c{Ali}. These models can be solved analytically only in d=0 and d=2 cases at large-N limit. In d=0 case, we calculate the eigenvalue density function in strong regime and show that the partition function computed from this density function is consistent with one calculated by path integration directly. In d=2 case, it is shown that all $V= {\rm Tr}(AA^{\d})^n$ models have a third order phase transition, same as the 2-dimensional Yang-Mills theory.

description: We consider quantum metrology with several copies of bipartite and multipartite quantum states. We characterize the metrological usefulness by determining how much the state outperforms separable states. We identify a large class of entangled states that become maximally useful for metrology in the limit of large number of copies, even if the state is weakly entangled and not even more useful than separable states. This way we activate metrologically useful genuine multipartite entanglement. Remarkably, not only that the maximally achievable metrological usefulness is attained exponentially fast in the number of copies, but it can be achieved by the measurement of few simple correlation observables. We also make general statements about the usefulness of a single copy of pure entangled states. We surprisingly find that the multiqubit states presented in Hyllus et al. [Phys. Rev. A 82, 012337 (2010)], which are not useful, become useful if we embed the qubits locally in qutrits. We discuss the relation of our scheme to error correction, and its possible use for quantum metrology in a noisy environment.

description: One-dimensional $δ^{'}$-function potential is discussed in the framework of Green's function formalism without invoking perturbation expansion. It is shown that the energy-dependent Green's function for this case is crucially dependent on the boundary conditions which are provided by self-adjoint extension method. The most general Green's function which contains four real self-adjoint extension parameters is constructed. Also the relation between the bare coupling constant and self-adjoint extension parameter is derived.

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis is intended to derive deterministic models, from different techniques and disciplines, to predict indoor air pollution originated from the outdoors where/when such measurement cannot be undertaken. It focuses on modelling indoor concentrations of particulate matter (PM) in naturally ventilated buildings taking into account spatial and temporal variations. The models developed have considered variables potentially influencing indoor PM concentrations, such as, outdoor PM concentrations, meteorological conditions, room characteristics/orientation, natural ventilation and human activity patterns. Analyses undertaken during this research have provided a number of findings concerning the ability to predict indoor PM concentrations as a function of ambient air pollution. In particular, results indicate how ambient PM concentrations and time-activity data can be used to help assess indoor PM levels.

description: Background: Kidney cancer rates in Estonia are high. The study aimed to examine long-term trends in kidney cancer incidence, mortality and survival in Estonia, with special focus on age, birth cohorts, morphology and TNM stage. Material and methods: Estonian Cancer Registry provided data on all incident cases of kidney cancer (ICD-10 C64), diagnosed in adults (age ≥15 years) in Estonia during 1995 − 2014. Relative survival ratios (RSR) were calculated and excess hazard ratios of dying were estimated with gender, age, period of diagnosis and TNM stage as independent variables. Joinpoint regression modeling was used to calculate estimated annual percentage change for incidence (1970–2014) and mortality (1995–2016) trends. Age-specific incidence rates were presented by birth cohort and period of diagnosis. Results: Incidence increased significantly in both sexes, with the steepest rise seen for localized cancer. Cohort effects were pronounced particularly in men, while period effects were seen from the mid-1980s to mid-1990s in both sexes. Age-standardized five-year RSR for total kidney cancer increased by 13 percentage units (from 53% to 65%) over the study period; the increase was larger for renal cell carcinoma (from 63% to 78%). Survival increases of about five percentage units were seen for stages I/II and III. Age and gender were not associated with excess risk of dying from renal cell carcinoma after adjusting for stage. Conclusion: Estonia is currently among countries with the highest incidence of kidney cancer. The results suggest a combined effect of changing risk profiles in successive birth cohorts and increasing diagnostic activity around 1990. Large survival increase can mostly be attributed to earlier detection, but improved diagnosis and treatment have probably influenced stage-specific survival. High proportion of tumors with unspecified morphology and those with unknown stage among the elderly warrants further investigation of diagnostic and treatment practices.

description: We have conducted a study to quantify the systematic differences resulting from using different stellar population models in optical spectroscopic identification of type II AGN. We examined the different AGN detection fractions of 7069 nearby galaxies (z <= 0.09) with SDSS DR8 spectra when using the Bruzual & Charlot (2003, BC03), Vazdekis et al. (2010, MILES), and solar metallicity Maraston and Stromback (2011) (MS11solar) stellar population models. The line fluxes obtained using BC03 and MS11solar are publicly available from SDSS data releases. We find that the BC03 templates result in systematically higher BPT line ratios and consequently higher AGN fractions and the MS11solar templates result in systematically lower line ratios and AGN fractions compared with the MILES templates. Using MILES as the standard, BC03 results in 25% "false positives" and MS11solar results in 22% "false negatives" when using the Kewley et al. (2001a) boundary for AGN identification. The fraction of galaxies whose AGN identification changes for different templates is luminosity dependent, ranging from a few percent for L[OIII]5007 >= 10^40 erg s-1 and increasing to ~ 50% for L[OIII]5007 <= 10^38 erg s-1. These results suggest that template choice should be accounted for when using and comparing the AGN and emission line fluxes from different catalogs.

A trilingual study of the translation of idioms in Miguel Torga's A criação do mundo
Creators: name: Fonte, Catarina
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis is the record of a three-year research project, conducted between 2007 and 2010. It involves three main disciplines, Torga Studies, Idiom Studies and Translation Studies and the main aim is to explore how the English and Spanish translators of A Criação do Mundo, Miguel Torga’s fictional autobiography, carried out the translation of idiomatic expressions in his work. In order to accomplish this, the original and the two translations of the book were read. A set of data composed of 175 idioms was then collected, according to previously stipulated criteria. The data was subsequently divided into seven categories. All examples were back-translated into English and listed according to a specific methodology, allowing the contrastive analysis of the translation procedures carried out by both translators. The comparison of the same idiom in three different languages led to the conclusion that translators used diverging translation procedures for different idiom categories. Research showed that idioms posed specific semantic, cultural and morphological problems for translators. Idioms have very complex features which vary from language to language and that acknowledgement has contributed to an extensive lack of consensus among scholars as to what truly constitutes an idiom and which obstacles translators face. With this descriptive study, the aim was to explore Torga’s work from a translational perspective, by acquiring a better understanding of Torga’s idiomaticity, and discovering to what extent the preservation of his idiomaticity is visible in the translations. The trilingual nature of this research also revealed that the English translator showed a more explicative tendency and the Spanish a more varied usage of different procedures. It is hoped that this research will inspire academics to conduct research on less-translated Lusophone authors from the point of view of translation.

Assuming that the composite has a periodic microscopic structure, we establish the $Γ$-convergence of the energies in the limiting of vanishing periodicity. The constraint that plastic deformations belong to $\mathsf{SL}(3)$ poses the biggest hurdle to the analysis, and we address it by regarding $\mathsf{SL}(3)$ as a Finsler manifold.

Supersymmetric Wilson Loops, Superstring-Like Observables, and the Natural Coupling of Superstrings to Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

description: We obtain an explicit expression for the supersymmetric Wilson loop in terms of chiral superfields and supercurrents in superspace. The result turns out to be different from what one would expect from the simple replacement of Lie algebra valued connection in the exponent with the corresponding super-Lie algebraic one. Genralizing the super particle coupling represented by the supersymmetric Wilson loop, we show that there exists a unique dimensionless coupling of the superstring to abelian supersymmetric gauge theories that respects all the known symmetries. The coupling is expressed in terms of chiral currents in superspace. The natural superstring coupling gives rise to a new observable that is "stringy" in nature and has no analogue in non-supersymmetric gauge theories.

description: In order to understand QCD at the energies relevant to hadronic physics one requires analytical methods for dealing with relativistic gauge field theories at large couplings. Strongly coupled quenched QED provides an ideal laboratory for the development of such techniques, in particular as many calculations suggest that - like QCD - this theory has a phase with broken chiral symmetry. In this talk we report on a nonperturbative variational calculation of the electron propagator within quenched QED and compare results to those obtained in other approaches. We find surprising differences among these results.

description: A new scheme that tightly couples kinetic turbulence codes across a spatial interface is introduced. This scheme evolves from considerations of competing strategies and down-selection. It is found that the use of a composite kinetic distribution function and fields with global boundary conditions as if the coupled code were one, makes the coupling problem tractable. In contrast, coupling the two solutions from each code across the overlap region is found to be more difficult due to numerical dephasing of the turbulent solutions between two solvers. Another advantage of the new scheme is that the data movement can be limited to the 3D fluid quantities, instead of higher dimensional kinetic information, which is computationally more efficient for large scale simulations on leadership class computers.

The Link between Urban Form and Travel: A Focus on Public Transport Demand and Methodological Issues
Creators: name: Karathodorou, Niovi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis is concerned with the link between urban form and travel behaviour. We focus on two issues that have been overlooked in the existing empirical literature: the measurement of land use mix and the relation between urban structure and city-wide public transport patronage. In the last twenty years, there has been a substantial interest on the effects of land use mix on travel behaviour. The literature uses a variety of metrics to measure land use mix, but there is limited understanding of how the choice of metric affects estimates of the link between land use mix and travel. Researchers also measure urban form, and in particular land use mix, at various geographical scales. Past studies examining the effects of spatial scale on estimates of the urban form-travel demand relationship, offer limited evidence on land use mix measures. The first part of this thesis examines how the metric and spatial scale used in land use mix measurement affect our understanding of the relation between land use mix and travel, employing both simulation and empirical econometric analyses. The simulation analysis uses randomly generated data to construct and test alternative land use mix measures. The empirical analysis tests alternative metrics and alternative spatial scales in the context of public transport trip frequency in London. The last part of the thesis, presents some further econometric models of public transport demand, to investigate the effect of city structure on city-wide public transport patronage. The study extends previous work on the topic in a number of ways. These include considering more detailed measures of urban from; dealing with methodological issues related to endogeneity and experimenting with various functional forms.

description: We compare the mass functions obtained analytically, in the framework of an extended Press & Schechter (PS) formalism, in a previous paper to the numerical mass functions obtained in N -- body simulations, using different algorithms to define objects in the density field. After discussing the properties of the algorithms, we show that the mass function obtained using the friend -- of -- friend algorithm reproduces best the scaling behaviors predicted in the extended PS formalism. Following this statistical analysis, we show that it is possible in the framework of our extended PS formalism to reproduce the mass function but also, and for the first time, the initial statistical properties of structures and their collapse time. This allow to present a ``coherent'' picture of structure formation which can account for the initial, final and dynamical properties of structures.

Genetic determinants of cardiac traits
Creators: name: Ahmed, Rizwan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: Background: The heritability and genomic determinants of cardiac traits such as coronary flow (CF), coronary flow reserve (CFR), myocardial relaxation (LV dP/dtmin) and myocardial contractility (LV dP/dtmax) remain unknown. Brown Norway (BN) and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat (SHR) are genetically distant inbred rat strains with distinct cardiovascular phenotypes. Genome sequence for both the strains is available making it possible to identify genetic determinants of cardiac phenotypes. Aims: To establish the heritability of cardiac traits, identify novel quantitative trait loci (QTLs) underlying these traits and to prioritize candidate genes by integrating information from physiological trait analysis with genome sequence and transcriptional profiling of cardiac tissue in an intercross derived from BN and SHR. Methods: Cardiac phenotyping was carried out in the parental BN and SHR strains as well as an intercross derived from these strains using in vivo blood pressure (BP) profiling and ex vivo Langendorff preparation. Genome-wide SNP genotyping was performed using a custom genotyping assay and transcriptional profiling of non-ischaemic cardiac tissue was undertaken on a subset of the intercross (n =110). Results: All cardiac traits studied were at least as heritable as BP. Novel QTLs were discovered for CF, CFR, LV dP/dtmin and LV dP/dtmax as well as confirming previously documented QTLs for BP and cardiac mass. A significant proportion of trait heritability was explained by genetic variation utilizing multiple QTL models. Expression analysis revealed cis and trans genomic control regions for cardiac gene expression. Expression QTL (eQTL) hot spots on rat chromosomes 3 and 8 were shown to be significantly enriched for regulation of mitochondrial transcripts and these regions were also linked to cardiac mass suggesting correlation between mitochondrial function and cardiac mass.

description: Compensation mechanisms are used to counterbalance the discomfort suffered by users due to quality service issues. Such mechanisms are currently used for different purposes in the electrical power and energy sector, e.g., power quality and reliability. This paper proposes a compensation mechanism using EV flexibility management of a set of charging sessions managed by a charging point operator (CPO). Users' preferences and bilateral agreements with the CPO are modelled via discrete utility functions for the energy not served. A mathematical proof of the proposed compensation mechanism is given and applied to a test scenario using historical data from an office building with a parking lot in the Netherlands. Synthetic data for 400 charging sessions was generated using multivariate elliptical copulas to capture the complex dependency structures in EV charging data. Numerical results validate the usefulness of the proposed compensation mechanism as an attractive measure both for the CPO and the users in case of energy not served.

description: A method is presented for the computation of the one-loop effective action at finite temperature and density. The method is based on an expansion in the number of spatial covariant derivatives. It applies to general background field configurations with arbitrary internal symmetry group and space-time dependence. Full invariance under small and large gauge transformations is preserved without assuming stationary or Abelian fields nor fixing the gauge. The method is applied to the computation of the effective action of spin zero particles in 2+1 dimensions at finite temperature and density and in presence of background gauge fields. The calculation is carried out through second order in the number of spatial covariant derivatives. Some limiting cases are worked out.

description: The focus is on real-time optimal decision making with application in advanced control systems. These computationally intensive schemes, which involve the repeated solution of (convex) optimization problems within a sampling interval, require more efficient computational methods than currently available for extending their application to highly dynamical systems and setups with resource-constrained embedded computing platforms. A range of techniques are proposed to exploit synergies between digital hardware, numerical analysis and algorithm design. These techniques build on top of parameterisable hardware code generation tools that generate VHDL code describing custom computing architectures for interior-point methods and a range of first-order constrained optimization methods. Since memory limitations are often important in embedded implementations we develop a custom storage scheme for KKT matrices arising in interior-point methods for control, which reduces memory requirements significantly and prevents I/O bandwidth limitations from affecting the performance in our implementations. To take advantage of the trend towards parallel computing architectures and to exploit the special characteristics of our custom architectures we propose several high-level parallel optimal control schemes that can reduce computation time. A novel optimization formulation was devised for reducing the computational effort in solving certain problems independent of the computing platform used. In order to be able to solve optimization problems in fixed-point arithmetic, which is significantly more resource-efficient than floating-point, tailored linear algebra algorithms were developed for solving the linear systems that form the computational bottleneck in many optimization methods. These methods come with guarantees for reliable operation. We also provide finite-precision error analysis for fixed-point implementations of first-order methods that can be used to minimize the use of resources while meeting accuracy specifications. The suggested techniques are demonstrated on several practical examples, including a hardware-in-the-loop setup for optimization-based control of a large airliner.

Towards understanding the electrogram: theaoretical & experimental multiscale modelling of factors affecting action potential propagation in cardiac tissue
Creators: name: Chang, Eugene Tze-Yeng

description: Conduction of electrical excitation in cardiac tissue is mediated by multiple physiological factors. Abnormal conduction may lead to onset of arrhythmia, and is correlated experimentally and clinically with electrogram fractionation. In-silico modelling studies seek to characterise and predict the biophysical phenomena underlying electrical excitation and conduction, and thus inform experiment design, and diagnostic and treatment strategies. Existing models assume syncytial or continuum behaviour, which may not be an accurate assumption in the disease setting. The aim of this thesis is to correlate simple theoretical and experimental models of abnormal cardiac conduction, and investigate the limits of validity of the theoretical models under critical parameter choices. An experimental model of 1D continuum conduction is established in guinea pig pap- illary muscle to examine the relationship between mean tissue resistivity and electrical conduction velocity (CV). The relationship is compared with a monodomain tissue model coupled with the Luo Rudy I (LR1) guinea pig ventricular action potential, which obeys classical cable theory of conduction under pharmacological modulation. An experimental model of 1D discrete conduction is created via development of a micro-patterned culture model of the HL-1 atrial myocyte cell line on micro-electrode arrays, which has a lower baseline conduction velocity compared to conventional cardiomyocyte models. A novel 1D bidomain model of conduction of discrete cells coupled by gap junctions is proposed and validated, based on existing analytical and numerical studies, and coupled to the LR1 model. Simulation of slow conduction under modulation of physiological parameters reveal difference in the excitation conduction between continuum and discrete models. Electro- gram fractionation is observed in the discrete model, which may be a more realistic model of conduction in diseased myocardium. This work highlights possibilities and challenges in comparing and validating theoretical models with data from experiments, and the im- portance of choosing the appropriate modelling assumptions for the specific physiological question.
Localized non-relativistic quantum systems in curved spacetimes: a general characterization of particle detector models

description: In this manuscript we provide a consistent way of describing a localized non-relativistic quantum system undergoing a timelike trajectory in a background curved spacetime. Namely, using Fermi normal coordinates, we identify an inner product and canonically conjugate position and momentum operators defined in the rest space of the trajectory for each value of its proper time. This framework then naturally provides a recipe for mapping a quantum theory defined in a non-relativistic background to a theory around a timelike trajectory in curved spacetimes. This is done by reinterpreting the position and momentum operators and by introducing a local redshift factor to the Hamiltonian, which gives rise to new dynamics due to the curvature of spacetime and the acceleration of the trajectory. We then apply our formalism to particle detector models, that is, to the case where the non-relativistic quantum system is coupled to a quantum field in a curved background. This allows one to write a general definition for particle detector models which is able to recover the previous models in the literature. Our framework also allows one to estimate the regime of validity of these models, characterizing the situations where particle detectors can be used to accurately probe quantum fields.

description: Motivated by an explanation of the $R_{K^{(*)}}$ anomalies, we propose a Standard Model extension via two scalar SU(2)$_L$ triplet leptoquarks and three generations of triplet Majorana fermions. The gauge group is reinforced by a $Z_2$ symmetry, ensuring the stability of the lightest $Z_2$-odd particle, which is a potentially viable dark matter candidate. Neutrino mass generation occurs radiatively (at the three-loop level), and leads to important constraints on the leptoquark couplings to leptons. We consider very generic textures for the flavour structure of the $h_1$ leptoquark Yukawa couplings, identifying classes of textures which succeed in saturating the $R_{K^{(*)}}$ anomalies. We subsequently carry a comprehensive analysis of the model's contributions to numerous high-intensity observables such as meson oscillations and decays, as well as charged lepton flavour violating processes, which put severe constraints on the flavour structure of these leptoquark extensions. Our findings suggest that the most constraining observables are $K^+ \to π^+ ν\bar ν$ decays, and charged lepton flavour violating $μ-e$ conversion in nuclei (among others). Nevertheless, for several classes of flavour textures and for wide mass regimes of the new mediators (within collider reach), this Standard Model extension successfully addresses neutrino mass generation, explains the current $R_{K^{(*)}}$ tensions, and offers a viable dark matter candidate.

description: In relativistic physics, both atomic collapse in heavy nucleus and Hawking radiation in black hole are predicted to occur through Klein tunneling process that couples particles and antiparticles. Recently, atomic collapse states (ACSs) were explicitly realized in graphene because of its relativistic Dirac excitation with large fine structure constant. However, essential role of the Klein tunneling on the ACSs remains elusive in experiment. Here we systematically study the quasibound states in elliptical graphene quantum dots (GQDs). Bonding and antibonding molecular collapse states formed by two coupled ACSs are observed in the elliptical GQDs. Our experiments, supported by theoretical calculations, indicate that the antibonding state of the ACSs will change into a Klein-tunneling-induced quasibound state, revealing deep connection between the ACSs and the Klein tunneling.

On moduli spaces of periodic monopoles and gravitational instantons
Creators: name: Foscolo, Lorenzo
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The topic of this thesis is the study of moduli spaces of periodic monopoles (with singularities), i.e. (singular) solutions to the Bogomolny equation (the dimensional reduction of the anti-self-duality equation to 3 dimensions) on R2 x S1. Using arguments from physics, Cherkis and Kapustin gave strong evidence that 4–dimensional moduli spaces of (singular) periodic monopoles yield examples of gravitational instantons (i.e. complete hyperkähler 4–manifolds with decaying curvature) of type ALG. Recently, Hein constructed ALG metrics by solving a complex Monge- Ampère equation on the complement of a fibre in a rational elliptic surface. The thesis is the first step in a programme aimed to verify Cherkis and Kapustin’s predictions and understand them in relation to Hein’s construction. More precisely: (i) We construct moduli spaces of periodic monopoles (with singularities) and show that they are smooth hyperkähler manifolds for generic choices of parameters. (ii) For each admissible choice of charge and number of singularities (and under additional conditions on the parameters in certain cases), we show that moduli spaces of periodic monopoles (with singularities) are non-empty by gluing methods. After presenting these results, we will conclude the thesis with an outline of the other steps in the programme.
