Abstract

The expanding use of fossil fuels has caused concern in terms of both energy security and environmental issues. Therefore, attempts have been made worldwide to promote the development of renewable energy sources, among which biofuel is especially attractive. Compared to other biofuels, lipid-derived biofuels have a higher energy density and better compatibility with existing infrastructure, and their performance can be readily improved by adjusting the chemical composition of lipid feedstocks. This review thus addresses the intrinsic interactions between lipid feedstocks and lipid-based biofuels, including biodiesel, and renewable equivalents to conventional gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Advancements in lipid-associated biofuel technology, as well as the properties and applicability of various lipid sources in terms of biofuel production, are also discussed. Furthermore, current progress in lipid production and profile optimization in the context of plant lipids, microbial lipids, and animal fats are presented to provide a wider context of lipid-based biofuel technology.

description: The optimization problem concerning the determination of the minimizer for the sum of convex functions holds significant importance in the realm of distributed and decentralized optimization. In scenarios where full knowledge of the functions is not available, limiting information to individual minimizers and convexity parameters -- either due to privacy concerns or the nature of solution analysis -- necessitates an exploration of the region encompassing potential minimizers based solely on these known quantities. The characterization of this region becomes notably intricate when dealing with multivariate strongly convex functions compared to the univariate case. This paper contributes outer and inner approximations for the region harboring the minimizer of the sum of two strongly convex functions, given a constraint on the norm of the gradient at the minimizer of the sum. Notably, we explicitly delineate the boundaries and interiors of both the outer and inner approximations. Intriguingly, the boundaries as well as the interiors turn out to be identical. Furthermore, we establish that the boundary of the region containing potential minimizers aligns with that of the outer and inner approximations.

description: Percutaneous coronary intervention of chronically occluded coronary arteries (CTO-PCI) historically has been known to be difficult with an increased risk of procedural complications resulting in low attempt rates. However, in those patients with successful revascularisation there have been improvements in quality of life even at 12 months post procedure. Additionally with new procedural techniques and equipment technology we have been able to not only improve procedural efficiency in this type of medicine but can also reduce the potential danger to patients.

description: Large discrete action spaces (LDAS) remain a central challenge in reinforcement learning. Existing solution approaches can handle unstructured LDAS with up to a few million actions. However, many real-world applications in logistics, production, and transportation systems have combinatorial action spaces, whose size grows well beyond millions of actions, even on small instances. Fortunately, such action spaces exhibit structure, e.g., equally spaced discrete resource units. With this work, we focus on handling structured LDAS (SLDAS) with sizes that cannot be handled by current benchmarks: we propose Dynamic Neighborhood Construction (DNC), a novel exploitation paradigm for SLDAS. We present a scalable neighborhood exploration heuristic that utilizes this paradigm and efficiently explores the discrete neighborhood around the continuous proxy action in structured action spaces with up to $10^{73}$ actions. We demonstrate the performance of our method by benchmarking it against three state-of-the-art approaches designed for large discrete action spaces across two distinct environments. Our results show that DNC matches or outperforms state-of-the-art approaches while being computationally more efficient. Furthermore, our method scales to action spaces that so far remained computationally intractable for existing methodologies.

description: Gaussian boson sampling is a promising candidate for showing experimental quantum advantage. While there is evidence that noiseless Gaussian boson sampling is hard to efficiently simulate using a classical computer, the current Gaussian boson sampling experiments inevitably suffer from loss and other noise models. Despite a high photon loss rate and the presence of noise, they are currently claimed to be hard to classically simulate with the best-known classical algorithm. In this work, we present a classical tensor-network algorithm that simulates Gaussian boson sampling and whose complexity can be significantly reduced when the photon loss rate is high. By generalizing the existing thermal-state approximation algorithm of lossy Gaussian boson sampling, the proposed algorithm allows us to achieve increased accuracy as the running time of the algorithm scales, as opposed to the algorithm that samples from the thermal state, which can give only a fixed accuracy. This generalization enables us to simulate the largest scale Gaussian boson sampling experiment so far using relatively modest computational resources, even though the output state of these experiments is not believed to be close to a thermal state. By demonstrating that our new classical algorithm outperforms the large-scale experiments on the benchmarks used as evidence for quantum advantage, we exhibit evidence that our classical sampler can simulate the ground-truth distribution better than the experiment can, which disputes the experimental quantum advantage claims.

description: $ $Future surveys could obtain tighter constraints on the cosmological parameters with the galaxy power spectrum than with the Cosmic Microwave Background. However, the inclusion of multiple overlapping tracers, redshift bins, and more non-linear scales means that generating the necessary ensemble of simulations for model-fitting presents a computational burden. In this work, we combine full-shape fitting of galaxy power spectra, analytical covariance matrix estimates, the MOPED (Massively Optimised Parameter Estimation and Data compression) method, and the Taylor expansion interpolation of the power spectrum for the first time to constrain the cosmological parameters directly from a state-of-the-art set of galaxy clustering measurements. We find it takes less than a day to compute the analytical covariance while it takes several months to calculate the simulated ones. Combining MOPED with the Taylor expansion interpolation of the power spectrum, we can constrain the cosmological parameters in just a few hours instead of a few days. We also find that even without a priori knowledge of the best-fit cosmological or galaxy bias parameters, the analytical covariance matrix with the MOPED compression still gives consistent cosmological constraints to within 0.1$σ$ after two iterations. Therefore, the pipeline we have developed here can significantly speed up the analysis for future surveys such as DESI and Euclid.

description: The doctoral thesis examines the

      Jean-François de Troy (1678-1734), Nicolas Lancret
      (1660-1743) and François Boucher (1703-1770), whose paintings
      from the early 1720s to the middle of the eighteenth century
      are amongst the most fascinating artistic achievements of the
      period. The present study undertakes an iconographic analysis
      of the pictorial motifs and uses literature (novels and
      comedy) and literary theory in order to situate these motifs
      in the context of contemporary social ideals and concepts
      like Honnêteté, Gallantry and Libertinage. In a section
      dealing with the reception history of the tableaux de mode,
      the heterogeneous classes composing the clientele of the
      tableaux de mode are placed in the socio-cultural context of
      the Régence. Questions of elite formation and urbanity at
      that time are related to the rise and evolution of these
      genre paintings.

description: We survey the Munthe-Kaas--Wright Hopf algebra defined on planar rooted trees. This algebra serves a role akin to that of the Butcher--Connes--Kreimer Hopf algebra on non-planar rooted trees within the domain of numerical methods for ordinary differential equations. In the course of our presentation, we revisit Foissy's work on finite-dimensional comodules over the Butcher--Connes--Kreimer Hopf algebra and expand on his findings to include the Munthe-Kaas--Wright Hopf algebra. This involves detailing its endomorphisms and recursively constructing its primitive elements. These results are applied within the context of rough paths, where we describe an isomorphism between planarly branched and geometric rough paths. Our approach hinges on the extension of the Guin--Oudom construction to post-Lie algebras. In the case of the free post-Lie algebra defined on planar rooted trees, it yields the dual of the Munthe-Kaas--Wright Hopf algebra. Surprisingly, we uncover a natural connection between the concept of bialgebras in cointeraction and the Guin--Oudom construction. Prompted by the rough path perspective, we explore this finding through the lens of translations on rough paths. Additionally, we investigate the geometric embedding for planar regularity structures.

description: Spreading of fine (D50 <=20um) powders into thin layers typically requires a mechanism such as a roller to overcome the cohesive forces between particles. Roller-based spreading requires careful optimization and can result in low density and/or inconsistent layers depending on the characteristics of the powder feedstock. Here, we explore improved, roller-based spreading strategies for highly cohesive powders using an integrated discrete element-finite element (DEM-FEM) framework. Powder characteristics are emulated using a self-similarity approach based on experimental calibration for a Ti-6Al-4V 0-20um powder. We find that optimal roller-based spreading relies on a combination of surface friction of the roller and roller kinematics that impart sufficient kinetic energy to break cohesive bonds between powder particles. However, excess rotation can impart excessive kinetic energy, causing ejection of particles and a non-uniform layer. Interestingly, the identified optimal surface velocities for counter-rotation as well as rotational oscillation are very similar, suggesting this quantity as the critical kinematic parameter. When these conditions are chosen appropriately, layers with packing fractions beyond 50% are predicted for layer thicknesses as small as ~2 times D90 of the exemplary powder, and the layer quality is robust with respect to substrate adhesion over a 10-fold range. The latter is an important consideration given the spatially varying substrate conditions in AM due to the combination of fused/bound and bare powder regions. As compared to counter-rotation, the proposed rotational oscillation is particularly attractive because it can overcome practical issues with mechanical runout of roller mechanisms. In particular, the application to rubber-coated rollers, which promises to reduce the risk of tool damage and particle streaking, is recommended for future investigation.

description: This thesis investigated discrepancies between women and men with heart disease. In patients with heart attacks, we observed significantly longer times from symptom onset to the restoration of blood supply to the heart muscle in women, compared to men. After a heart attack, women had higher death rates compared to men, particularly younger women. In patients with heart valve disease we found women experienced longer waiting-times for valve procedures, compared to men, and this led to poorer outcomes. These differences reflect a complex interplay of factors intrinsic to the female sex as well as patient and clinician bias.

description: The phi-invariant was introduced by Shou-Wu Zhang and Nariya Kawazumi. We study the continuity property of the phi-invariants for degenerating graphs, and show that this continuity property induces an adelic divisor on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, and then give an asymptotic expression of the Zhang--Kawazumi's invariants for Riemann surfaces near the boundary of the moduli space. We mainly use Yuan--Zhang's adelic divisors, and follow Yuan's idea of globalization of phi-invariants.

description: The training of over-parameterized neural networks has received much study in recent literature. An important consideration is the regularization of over-parameterized networks due to their highly nonconvex and nonlinear geometry. In this paper, we study noise injection algorithms, which can regularize the Hessian of the loss, leading to regions with flat loss surfaces. Specifically, by injecting isotropic Gaussian noise into the weight matrices of a neural network, we can obtain an approximately unbiased estimate of the trace of the Hessian. However, naively implementing the noise injection via adding noise to the weight matrices before backpropagation presents limited empirical improvements. To address this limitation, we design a two-point estimate of the Hessian penalty, which injects noise into the weight matrices along both positive and negative directions of the random noise. In particular, this two-point estimate eliminates the variance of the first-order Taylor's expansion term on the Hessian. We show a PAC-Bayes generalization bound that depends on the trace of the Hessian (and the radius of the weight space), which can be measured from data.
 We conduct a detailed experimental study to validate our approach and show that it can effectively regularize the Hessian and improve generalization. First, our algorithm can outperform prior approaches on sharpness-reduced training, delivering up to a 2.4% test accuracy increase for fine-tuning ResNets on six image classification datasets. Moreover, the trace of the Hessian reduces by 15.8%, and the largest eigenvalue is reduced by 9.7% with our approach. We also find that the regularization of the Hessian can be combined with weight decay and data augmentation, leading to stronger regularization. Second, our approach remains effective for improving generalization in pretraining multimodal CLIP models and chain-of-thought fine-tuning.

description: We consider the spectrum of the Laplace operator acting on $\mathcal{L}^p$ over a conformally compact manifold for $1 \leq p \leq \infty$. We prove that for $p \neq 2$ this spectrum always contains an open region of the complex plane. We further show that the spectrum is contained within a certain parabolic region of the complex plane. These regions depend on the value of $p$, the dimension of the manifold, and the values of the sectional curvatures approaching the boundary.

description: Der Schwerpunkt der vorliegenden
      Dissertation liegt in der Untersuchung der Gesamtheit des
      Bildbandes „Dresden – eine Kamera klagt an“ von Richard Peter
      senior ausgehend von der Verlagsgeschichte, über die
      politisch motivierte Entstehungsgeschichte, die Bildfolge und
      das Layout, den Bildinhalten bis hin zur
      Öffentlichkeitsarbeit. Die Publikation erschien erstmalig im
      Jahr 1950 bei der „Dresdener Verlagsgesellschaft“ in einer
      Auflage von 50.000 Stück und ist ein wesentlicher Teil der
      politischen Pflege des Mythos des „alten Dresden“. Der
      Bildteil mit 104 Schwarz-Weiß-Abbildungen ist in drei
      Abschnitte bzw. Themenbereiche gegliedert: Zerstörte Gebäude,
      der Mensch als Bombenopfer und der Wiederaufbau der Stadt.
      Die kunsthistorische Untersuchung konzentriert sich auf die
      erste Auflage, da es sich hierbei um die einzige vom
      Fotografen autorisierte Fassung handelt.
description: The focus of the dissertation
      concentrates on the study of the photo book „Dresden – eine
      Kamera klagt an“ by Richard Peter senior. It begins with the
      history of the publishing company, via the creation of the
      book which shows the political influence, the picture
      sequence and layout, the visual content till the public
      relations. The photo book was first published in 1950 by
      “Dresdener Verlagsgesellschaft” with an edition of 50,000
      copies. It is part and parcel of the political fostering of
      the legend of the “old city of Dresden”. The picture sequence
      with 104 black-and-white photographs is divided into three
      parts/subject areas: destroyed buildings, the human being as
      the bomb victim and the reconstruction of the city. The
      art-historical analysis focuses on the first edition of the
      book since it is the only edition which has been authorized
      by the photographer.

description: Aberrant MYC is implicated in many haematological malignancies and targeting this ‘oncogene of addiction’ remains challenging. Therapeutic strategies targeting single proteins or pathways regulating MYC often demonstrate limited efficacy due to the emergence of resistance. To overcome this a series of chimeric molecules linking PI3K and BET were rationally designed. This thesis examines the chemical, biological and therapeutic effects of a lead dual PI3K/BET inhibitor in a wide range of in vitro and in vivo models of haematological malignancies.

description: From correlations in measurement outcomes alone, can two otherwise isolated parties establish whether such correlations are atemporal? That is, can they rule out that they have been given the same system at two different times? Classical statistics says no, yet quantum theory disagrees. Here, we introduce the necessary and sufficient conditions by which such quantum correlations can be identified as atemporal. We demonstrate the asymmetry of atemporality under time reversal, and reveal it to be a measure of spatial quantum correlation distinct from entanglement. Our results indicate that certain quantum correlations possess an intrinsic arrow of time, and enable classification of general quantum correlations across space-time based on their (in)compatibility with various underlying causal structures.

A Generalized Dynamic Asymmetric Exclusion Process: Orthogonal Dualities and Degenerations

description: In this paper, a generalized version of dynamic ASEP is introduced, and it is shown that the process has a Markov duality property with the same process on the reversed lattice. The duality functions are multivariate $q$-Racah polynomials, and the corresponding orthogonality measure is the reversible measure of the process. By taking limits in the generator of dynamic ASEP, its reversible measure, and the duality functions, we obtain orthogonal and triangular dualities for several other interacting particle systems. In this sense, the duality of dynamic ASEP sits on top of a hierarchy of many dualities.
 For the construction of the process, we rely on representation theory of the quantum algebra $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$. In the standard representation, the generator of generalized ASEP can be constructed from the coproduct of the Casimir. After a suitable change of representation, we obtain the generator of dynamic ASEP. The corresponding intertwiner is constructed from $q$-Krawtchouk polynomials, which arise as eigenfunctions of twisted primitive elements. This gives a duality between dynamic ASEP and generalized ASEP with $q$-Krawtchouk polynomials as duality functions. Using this duality, we show the (almost) self-duality of dynamic ASEP.
Coleman-Weinberg dynamics of ultralight scalar dark matter and GeV-scale right-handed neutrinos

description: We consider an extension of the Standard Model by three singlet fermions and one singlet real scalar field. The scalar is an ultralight dark matter candidate whose abundance is set by dynamically induced misalignment from the Higgs portal. We focus on parameter space where the Coleman-Weinberg potential both fixes the dark matter relic abundance, and predicts the mass scale of right-handed neutrinos. The model prefers scalar masses in the range of $10 ~{\rm μeV} \lesssim m_ϕ \lesssim 10 ~{\rm meV}$, and can be tested via direct searches for a light scalar (e.g. fifth force tests), or by searching for right-handed neutrinos in laboratory experiments.

description: This PhD project investigated ways to modify successful strategies for preventing cardiovascular disease, in affluent countries such as Australia, for use in disadvantaged populations. There were two major findings regarding a disadvantaged population in rural India. First, although traditional risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes are important, non-traditional risk factors such as sleeping hours and multiple children also lead to cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. Second, ‘Globorisk’ is the best available tool for assessing risk of a person having a cardiovascular event. Clinicians now have better evidence on how to manage their patients in similar settings.

description: OpenCitations Meta is a new database that contains bibliographic metadata of scholarly publications involved in citations indexed by the OpenCitations infrastructure. It adheres to Open Science principles and provides data under a CC0 license for maximum reuse. The data can be accessed through a SPARQL endpoint, REST APIs, and dumps. OpenCitations Meta serves three important purposes. Firstly, it enables disambiguation of citations between publications described using different identifiers from various sources. For example, it can link publications identified by DOIs in Crossref and PMIDs in PubMed. Secondly, it assigns new globally persistent identifiers (PIDs), known as OpenCitations Meta Identifiers (OMIDs), to bibliographic resources without existing external persistent identifiers like DOIs. Lastly, by hosting the bibliographic metadata internally, OpenCitations Meta improves the speed of metadata retrieval for citing and cited documents. The database is populated through automated data curation, including deduplication, error correction, and metadata enrichment. The data is stored in RDF format following the OpenCitations Data Model, and changes and provenance information are tracked. OpenCitations Meta and its production. OpenCitations Meta currently incorporates data from Crossref, DataCite, and the NIH Open Citation Collection. In terms of semantic publishing datasets, it is currently the first in data volume.
