description: La tesi affronta le problematiche relative ai nuovi scenari educativi nella cosiddetta Società della Conoscenza e alle sfide che essa richiede alla didattica nei nuovi “ambienti” formativi. 
Partendo dall’analisi della definizione della stessa come Società della Conoscenza si cerca di darne una lettura che ne metta in luce gli elementi principali che la caratterizzano aprendo alla riflessione sullo sguardo che essa dà al suo futuro e agli scenari verso i quali si orientano le sue sfide cognitive ed educative.
In tale analisi non può mancare una riflessione sul legame tra la società contemporanea e le cosiddette nuove tecnologie (ICT: Information and Comunication Technologies). Le ICT, infatti, in misura sempre maggiore, hanno invaso la società e influenzato l’evoluzione della stessa assumendo un ruolo significativo nella vita quotidiana e nell’affermarsi della società della conoscenza.
Il percorso di ricerca prende il via da questi interrogativi per ampliare la riflessione sulle nuove frontiere dell’educazione nella società della conoscenza. Quest’ultima, infatti, così come si caratterizza e come si evolve, identificando la sua priorità non solo nella diffusione dell’informazione, ma anche e soprattutto nella “costruzione” di conoscenza, impone un nuovo modo di pensare e approcciarsi all’educazione e alla formazione. Il longlife learning diventa l’elemento centrale ma non va inteso solo come possibilità date all’individuo adulto di riprendere percorsi formativi lasciati o intraprenderne di nuovi. Quello che cambia è la finalità stessa della formazione: è il concetto dell’apprendimento come potenzialità individuale (empowerment). Non basta avere accesso e acquisire un numero sempre maggiore di informazioni ma occorre sviluppare la capacità di acquisire strategicamente le informazioni per essere capaci di affrontare i continui cambiamenti e costruire nuove forme di sapere condiviso.
Sul piano operativo le ICT permettono numerose nuove possibilità per la formazione, sia come strumenti a supporto della didattica, sia come mezzi di trasmissione delle informazioni e costruzione di conoscenza. L’e-learning si afferma con una sua impostazione e una sua metodologia, nonché con i suoi “oggetti” e i suoi “ambienti”. Nella tesi vengono illustrate le principali problematiche da considerare per la costruzione di percorsi formativi in rete (strumenti, contenuti, ruoli, comunicazione, valutazione) per presentare, infine, i materiali prodotti dall’autrice per l’erogazione on line di moduli didattici in due Unità Formative.

description: Perdew-Zunger self-interaction correction (PZ-SIC) offers a route to remove self-interaction errors on an orbital-by-orbital basis. A recent formulation of PZ-SIC by Pederson, Ruzsinszky and Perdew proposes restricting the unitary transformation to localized orbitals called Fermi-Löwdin orbitals. This formulation, called the FLOSIC method, simplifies PZ-SIC calculations and was implemented self-consistently using a Jacobi-like (FLOSIC-Jacobi) iteration scheme. In this work we implement the FLOSIC approach using the Krieger-Li-Iafrate (KLI) approximation to the optimized effective potential (OEP). We compare the results of present FLOSIC-KLI approach with FLOSIC-Jacobi scheme for atomic energies, atomization energies, ionization energies, barrier heights, polarizability of chains of hydrogen molecules etc. to validate the FLOSIC-KLI approach. The FLOSIC-KLI approach, which is within the realm of Kohn-Sham theory, predicts smaller energy gaps between frontier orbitals due to the lowering of eigenvalues of the lowest unoccupied orbitals. Results show that atomic energies, atomization energies, ionization energy as an absolute of highest occupied orbital eigenvalue, and polarizability of chains of hydrogen molecules between the two methods agree within 2%. Finally the FLOSIC-KLI approach is used to determine the vertical ionization energies of water clusters.

Sonic Hedgehog pathway impairment in Neural Precursor Cells of the Ts65Dn mouse, an animal model of Down syndrome

description: Mental retardation in Down syndrome (DS) has been imputed to the decreased brain volume, which is evident starting from the early phases of development. Recent studies in a widely used mouse model of DS, the Ts65Dn mouse, have shown that neurogenesis is severely impaired during the early phases of brain development, suggesting that this defect may be a major determinant of brain hypotrophy and mental retardation in individuals with DS. Recently, it has been found that in the cerebellum of Ts65Dn mice there is a defective responsiveness to Sonic Hedgehog (Shh), a potent mitogen that controls cell division during brain development, suggesting that failure of Shh signaling may underlie the reduced proliferation potency in DS. Based on these premises, we sought to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying derangement of the Shh pathway in neural precursor cells (NPCs) from Ts65Dn mice. We found that the expression levels of the Shh receptor Patched1 (Ptch1) were increased compared to controls both at the RNA and protein level. Partial silencing of Ptch1 expression in trisomic NPCs restored cell proliferation, indicating that proliferation impairment was due to Ptch1 overexpression. We further found that the overexpression of Ptch1 in trisomic NPCs is related to increased levels of AICD, a transcription-promoting fragment of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Increased AICD binding to the Ptch1 promoter favored its acetylated status, thus enhancing Ptch1 expression. Taken together, these data provide novel evidence that Ptch1 over expression underlies derangement of the Shh pathway in trisomic NPCs, with consequent proliferation impairment.
The demonstration that Ptch1 over expression in trisomic NPCs is due to an APP fragment provides a link between this trisomic gene and the defective neuronal production that characterizes the DS brain.

description: Le projet INPOLAG (2019-2023) s’inscrit dans le contexte réglementaire de la Directive Cadre sur l’Eau (DCE) et vise à développer un indicateur "poissons DCE-compatible" adapté au contexte français. Basé sur un échantillonnage à deux saisons (printemps et automne) de 122 stations réparties sur un panel de 8 lagunes, ce travail a permis de décrire les peuplements de poissons, principalement les juvéniles ou les espèces peu mobiles, en parallèle des conditions environnementales. Les données collectées mettent en évidence les variabilités spatiale (entre habitats) et saisonnière (printemps vs. automne) de la densité et de la composition des peuplements. L’analyse spatio-temporelle des communautés bentho-démersales a montré néanmoins une influence relativement limitée de la saison dans nos données (2% de l’effet temporelle pour 18% de l’effet spatial de la lagune) avec cependant des différences marquées dans les captures au printemps avec l’arrivée d’espèces marines migrantes telles que Sparus aurata, Liza ramada et Solea solea. L'occurrence et la diversité des poissons dans les habitats lagunaires seraient donc fortement influencée par la saisonnalité du recrutement, la dynamique des populations et les schémas de migration comme cela a pu être démontré dans des études antérieures. Au terme de ce travail, de nombreuses métriques de diversité ont été calculées mais aujourd'hui il n'est pas possible de définir un indicateur "poissons DCE-compatible" en raison du faible nombre de couple de données Métrique-Pression. Ce travail a permis néanmoins de valider une stratégie d'acquisition et de traitement des données qui pourra être appliquée à large échelle dans les lagunes méditerranéennes françaises.

Electron nuclear double resonance studies of free radicals trapped in irradiated single crystals of sodium formate and potassium hydrogen bisphenylacetate
Creators: name: Park, John Melvyn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Electron Nuclear Double Resonance (ENDOR) measurements have been made of hyperfine couplings in x-irradiated single crystals of sodium formate and potassium hydrogen bisphenylacetate (KHBP). In sodium formate ENDOR signals were obtained from both proton and sodium ion neighbours of the CO^" centre formed on irradiation. ENDOR studies 23 of the Na hyperfine interaction together with CNDO calculations indicate that the CO^" forms a tight ion pair with the nearer Na+ cation, thus explaining the four line EPR hfs. observed. Hf. interactions have also been resolved for four pairs of nearest neighbour protons. The tensors are mainly dipolar in character, but contain some isotropic contributions which are interpreted in terms of covalent interactions. 23 Extra so-called 'forbidden' lines are observed in the Na ENDOR and a model of ENDOR enhancements involving cross relaxation with other paramagneti species is suggested. (#2" was also observed in uv-irradiated samples: the threshold energy for radical formation was estimated to be 100+10 kcal mole A previously reported free-radical reaction in sodium formate was found to be reversed by uv irradiation, the reaction obeying second order kinetics. Proton ENDOR studies of x-irradiated KHBP confirmed the presence of the benzyl radical, for which all seven anisotropic proton hyperfine tensors were measured. The isotropic couplings agree with earlier EPR measurements of the benzyl radical undergoing free rotation. The dipolar couplings provide an independent estimate of the spin density distribution in the radical which is not in complete accord with earlier determinations based on the McConnell relation. The dipolar tensors imply a spin distribution close to that predicted by INDO and other calculations, which suggests that these calculations may be qualitatively correct, and the McConnell relation not strictly applicable. Several other radicals are also present in irradiated KHBP. Two are tentatively identified as cyclohexadienyl type radicals formed by hydrogen addition at the phenyl ring ortho and para to the methylene carboxy group.

description: The exciton dynamics on flat (001) rubrene crystal surfaces have been compared with those under confined pyramidal geometry by time-resolved photoluminescence with micrometer spatial resolution. The luminescence spectra can be interpreted in terms of generation of a free and a self-trapped exciton. Their ratio depends significantly on the structural size which we explain by the optical absorption profile of the pyramids in combination with the exciton diffusion constant. For the latter a lower limit of 0.2 cm2/s at 4 K has been estimated. Temperature-dependent decay times reveal activation barriers between free and self-trapped exciton of 3 meV and 14 meV.

description: A series of novel sialoglycopolypeptides carrying N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc)-containing trisaccharides having α(2 → 3)- and α(2 → 6)-linkages in the side chains of γ-polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) were designed as competitive inhibitors against equine influenza viruses (EIV), which critically recognize the Neu5Gc residue for receptor binding. Using horse red blood cells (HRBC) we successfully evaluated the binding activity of the multivalent Neu5Gc ligands to both equine and canine influenza viruses in the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay. Our findings show the multivalent α2,3-linked Neu5Gc-ligands (3a–c and 7) selectively inhibit hemagglutination mediated by both influenza viruses and display a strong inhibitory activity. Our results indicate that the multivalent Neu5Gc-ligands can be used as novel probes to elucidate the mechanism of infection/adhesion of Neu5Gc-binding influenza viruses.

description: We consider the differential and total cross sections for proton-proton and proton-antiproton scattering in the Regge regime from the point of view of string dual models of QCD. We argue that the form factor which appears in the differential cross section is related to the matrix element of the stress tensor between proton states and give a procedure for computing the strength of the coupling of the Pomeron trajectory to the proton. We compute this coupling in the Sakai-Sugimoto model and find excellent agreement with the data at large $s$ and small $t$. The form factor can be estimated in the Skyrme model or in AdS/QCD models and gives a stiffer form factor than the commonly used electromagnetic form factor, in agreement with our fits to data. Our model is also in good agreement with the measured ratio of real to imaginary parts of the forward scattering amplitude at large $s$.

description: Ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic rays (CRs) interact with cosmic background radiation through hadronic processes, and the Universe would become `opaque' to UHE CRs of energies $\sim$($10^{18}$- $10^{20}$) eV over about several tens of Mpc, setting the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuz'min (GZK) horizon. We demonstrate that a non-negligible fraction of the UHE CRs arriving on Earth could originate from beyond the GZK horizon when heavy nuclear CRs, and the population and evolution of UHE CR sources are taken into account. We show how the multi-particle CR horizon is modified by different source populations, and discuss how this leads to the natural emergence of an isotropic flux component in the observed UHE CR background. This component would coexist with an anisotropic foreground component contributed by nearby sources within the GZK horizon.

description: l-Xylulose reductase (LXR) catalyzes the reduction of l-xylulose to xylitol in the fungal l-arabinose catabolic pathway. LXR (RpLXR) was purified from the pentose-fermenting zygomycetous fungus Rhizomucor pusillus NBRC 4578. The native RpLXR is a homotetramer composed of 29 kDa subunits and preferred NADPH as a coenzyme. The Km values were 8.71 mM for l-xylulose and 3.89 mM for dihydroxyacetone. The lxr3 (Rplxr3) gene encoding RpLXR consists of 792 bp and encodes a putative 263 amino acid protein (Mr = 28,341). The amino acid sequence of RpLXR showed high similarity to 3-oxoacyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) reductase. The Rplxr3 gene was expressed in Escherichia coli and the recombinant RpLXR exhibited properties similar to those of native RpLXR. Transcription of the Rplxr3 gene in R. pusillus NBRC 4578 was induced in the presence of l-arabinose and inhibited in the presence of d-glucose, d-xylose, and d-mannitol, indicating that RpLXR is involved in the l-arabinose catabolic pathway.

description: We investigate primordial perturbations and non-gaussianities in the Hořava-Lifshitz theory of gravitation. In the UV limit, the scalar perturbation in the Hořava theory is naturally scale-invariant, ignoring the details of the expansion of the Universe. One may thus relax the exponential inflation and the slow-roll conditions for the inflaton field. As a result, it is possible that the primordial non-gaussianities, which are ``slow-roll suppressed'' in the standard scenarios, become large. We calculate the non-gaussianities from the bispectrum of the perturbation and find that the equilateral-type non-gaussianity is of the order of unity, while the local-type non-gaussianity remains small, as in the usual single-field slow-roll inflation model in general relativity. Our result is a new constraint on the the Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.

Application-oriented Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming
Creators: name: D'Ambrosio, Claudia <1980>
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2009
Subjects: MAT/09 Ricerca operativa

description: In the most recent years there is a renovate interest for Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) problems. This can be explained for different reasons: (i) the performance of solvers handling non-linear constraints was largely improved; (ii) the awareness that most of the applications from the real-world can be modeled as an MINLP problem; (iii) the challenging nature of this very general class of problems.
It is well-known that MINLP problems are NP-hard because they are the generalization of MILP problems, which are NP-hard themselves. However, MINLPs are, in general, also hard to solve in practice. We address to non-convex MINLPs, i.e. having non-convex continuous relaxations: the presence of non-convexities in the model makes these problems usually even harder to solve.
The aim of this Ph.D. thesis is to give a flavor of different possible approaches that one can study to attack MINLP problems with non-convexities, with a special attention to real-world problems. In Part 1 of the thesis we introduce the problem and present three special cases of general MINLPs and the most common methods used to solve them. These techniques play a fundamental role in the resolution of general MINLP problems. Then we describe algorithms addressing general MINLPs. Parts 2 and 3 contain the main contributions of the Ph.D. thesis. In particular, in Part 2 four different methods aimed at solving different classes of MINLP problems are presented. Part 3 of the thesis is devoted to real-world applications: two different problems and approaches to MINLPs are presented, namely Scheduling and Unit Commitment for Hydro-Plants and Water Network Design problems. The results show that each of these different methods has advantages and disadvantages. Thus, typically the method to be adopted to solve a real-world problem should be tailored on the characteristics, structure and size of the problem. Part 4 of the thesis consists of a brief review on tools commonly used for general MINLP problems, constituted an integral part of the development of this Ph.D. thesis (especially the use and development of open-source software).
We present the main characteristics of solvers for each special case of MINLP.

A modeling study is performed to show that a large class of bursting systems, as defined by a shared topology when represented as dynamical systems, is inherently suited to support multistability. We derive the bifurcation structure and parametric trends leading to multistability in these systems. Evidence for the existence of multirhythmic behavior in neurons of the aquatic mollusc Aplysia californica that is consistent with our proposed mechanism is presented. Although these experimental results are preliminary, they indicate that single neurons may be capable of dynamically storing information for longer time scales than typically attributed to nonsynaptic mechanisms.

description: We investigate electron transport through clean open quantum dots (quantum billiards). We present a semiclassical theory that allows to accurately reproduce quantum transport calculations. Quantitative agreement is reached for individual energy and magnetic field dependent elements of the scattering matrix. Two key ingredients are essential: (i) inclusion of pseudo-paths which have the topology of linked classical paths resulting from diffraction in addition to classical paths and (ii) a high-level approximation to diffractive scattering. Within this framework of the pseudo-path semiclassical approximation (PSCA), typical shortcomings of semiclassical theories such as violation of the anti-correlation between reflection and transmission and the overestimation of conductance fluctuations are overcome. Beyond its predictive capabilities the PSCA provides deeper insights into the quantum-to-classical crossover.

description: Recent literature has demonstrated the importance of fieldwork in geology. However, as the pandemic of COVID 19 emerged since 2019, several issues have arisen to develop fieldwork experiences in several educational centers around the world, at the same time resources have become scarce, and field experiences are often targeted for cuts. This was the case at the University of Calgary when massive enrollments placed a tremendous burden on resources. In courses throughout, field trips and other excursions were eliminated, making it so students do not have any field experiences until their third year. In response, we have developed the virtual field experiences (VFEs) from one of our nearby outcrops, Kinta Valley limestone to create a virtual reality (VR) model and 3D rock model based on the actual rock samples.

description: Quantum speed limit is bound on the minimum time a quantum system requires to evolve from an initial state to final state under a given dynamical process. It sheds light on how fast a desired state transformation can take place which is pertinent for design and control of quantum technologies. In this paper, we derive speed limits on correlations such as entanglement, Bell-CHSH correlation, and quantum mutual information of quantum systems evolving under dynamical processes. Our main result is speed limit on an entanglement monotone called negativity which holds for arbitrary dimensional bipartite quantum systems and processes. Another entanglement monotone which we consider is the concurrence. To illustrate efficacy of our speed limits, we analytically and numerically compute the speed limits on the negativity, concurrence, and Bell-CHSH correlation for various quantum processes of practical interest. We are able to show that for practical examples we have considered, some of the speed limits we derived are actually attainable and hence these bounds can be considered to be tight.

description: An elicitor chitosan (CHT) induces stomatal closure but the mechanism remains to be clarified. A phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is crucial for elicitor-induced defense signaling in plants. Here we investigated whether endogenous SA is required for CHT signaling in guard cells. In the SA-deficient nahG mutant, treatment of CHT did not induce either apoplastic reactive oxygen species (ROS) production or stomatal closure but co-treatment of CHT and SA induced both apoplastic ROS production and stomatal closure, indicating the involvement of endogenous SA in CHT-induced apoplastic ROS production and CHT-induced stomatal closure. Furthermore, CHT induced transient cytosolic free calcium concentration increments in the nahG mutant in the presence of exogenous SA but not in the absence of exogenous SA. These results provide evidence that endogenous SA is a crucial element in CHT-induced stomatal closure.

description: Recently, some of us developed a novel model glass-forming liquid with k extra interactions with pseudo neighbours to each liquid particle over and above the regular interactions with its neighbours. Analysis of the structure and dynamics of these systems showed that with an increase in k the systems have more mean-field like properties. This work presents an extensive study of the thermodynamics of the above-mentioned model for several values of k and its correlation with the dynamics. We surprisingly find that the usual thermodynamic integration (TI) method of calculating the entropy provides unphysical results for this model. It predicts the vanishing of configurational entropy at state points at which both the collective and the single-particle dynamics of the system show complete relaxation. We then employ a new method known as the two-phase thermodynamics (2PT) method to calculate the entropy. We find that with an increase in k the difference in the entropy computed using the two methods (2PT and TI) increases. We also find that in the temperature range studied, the entropy calculated via the 2PT method satisfies the Adam-Gibbs (AG) relationship between the relaxation time and the configurational entropy, whereas the entropy calculated via the TI method shows a strong violation of the same. We then apply the 2PT method to calculate the entropy in another system where some fractions of particles are pinned randomly in their equilibrium positions. This system also shows a similar breakdown of the AG relationship as reported earlier. We show that the difference in entropy calculated via the 2PT and TI methods increases with an increase in pinning density. We also find that when the entropy is calculated using the 2PT method, the AG relationship between the dynamics and the entropy holds.

description: The detailed characterization of garnet-type Li-ion conducting Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) solid electrolyte thin films grown by novel CO₂-laser assisted chemical vapor deposition (LA-CVD) is reported. A deposition process parameter study reveals that an optimal combination of deposition temperature and oxygen partial pressure is essential to obtain high quality tetragonal LLZO thin films. The polycrystalline tetragonal LLZO films grown on platinum have a dense and homogeneous microstructure and are free of cracks. A total lithium ion conductivity of 4.2·10⁻⁶ S·cm⁻¹ at room temperature, with an activation energy of 0.50 eV, is achieved. This is the highest total lithium ion conductivity value reported for tetragonal LLZO thin films so far, being about one order of magnitude higher than previously reported values for tetragonal LLZO thin films prepared by sputtering and pulsed laser deposition. The results of this study suggest that the tetragonal LLZO thin films grown by LA-CVD are applicable for the use in all-solid-state thin film lithium ion batteries.

description: We previously demonstrated that transgenic tobacco plants expressing cyanobacterial fructose-1,6-/sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase in the cytosol increased the number of lateral shoots and leaves at elevated CO2 levels. These findings suggest that alterations in carbon partitioning affect the development of shoot branching. In order to elucidate the underlying mechanisms at the molecular level, we generated transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing cyanobacterial fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase-II in the cytosol (AcF). At elevated CO2 levels, the number of lateral shoots was significantly increased in AcF plants. Sucrose and hexose levels were also higher in AcF plants than in wild-type plants. The expression levels of MAX1, MAX4, YUCCA8, YUCCA9, and BRC1, which are involved in auxin or strigolactone biosynthesis and responses, were lower in AcF plants than in wild-type plants. These results suggest that alterations in sugar partitioning affect hormone metabolism and responses, resulting in enhanced shoot branching.
