Some developments in Pre-equilibrium and Equilibrium analysis of Variational Inequalities
Creators: name: Pia, Stéphane Nicolas
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2009

description: In the present work, the notion of equilibrium and pre-equilibrium of variational inequalities (but also some for some quasi-variational inequalities)is developed  in Weighted Hilbert spaces, in strictly convex and smooth Banach spaces and in reflexive Banach spaces. The concept of Weighted variational inequality is introduced, some associated questions as regularity,delayed equilibrium and Lagrangian duality are developed and applied to the traffic equilibrium problem. The more recent notion of pre-equilibrium very important in time dependent equilibrium  must be understood as the optimal path from an arbitrarily point to reach the equilibrium (critical point of the system). The notion of Non pivot and Implicit Dynamical system is introduced, an existence result is given (in Hilbert spaces with linear duality mapping) as application an existence result is given also for a specific quasi-variational inequality (translated set) without using the classical assumption for the projection (Lipschitz) [This assumption is wrong a very simple case and a counter example is provided]. The notion of projected dynamical systems is extended to strictly convex and smooth Banach spaces and reflexive Banach spaces and the equivalence between critical points of such PDS and equilibrium of Variational inequalities is proved. Some applications will also be given to the traffic equilibrium problem, an elementary design of an industrial application will be also illustrated.

description: We develop a criterion for transience for a general model of branching Markov chains. In the case of multi-dimensional branching random walk in random environment (BRWRE) this criterion becomes explicit. In particular, we show that \emph{Condition L} of Comets and Popov is necessary and sufficient for transience as conjectured. Furthermore, the criterion applies to two important classes of branching random walks and implies that the critical branching random walk is transient resp. dies out locally.

description: Saranno le migrazioni a decidere il destino dell’Europa? Il focus sui migranti,
infatti, domina oggi il dibattito politico e costituisce la principale
sfida che il Vecchio Continente si trova ad affrontare. Sfida che innesca
una serie di ulteriori e complesse conseguenze relative all’integrazione
sociale dei nuovi arrivati, alla sicurezza da garantire sul territorio, soprattutto
a fronte della minaccia terroristica. Nel contempo, la situazione in corso
sembra mettere a rischio il futuro del processo di integrazione europea. Il
referendum sulla Brexit è stato in gran parte giocato sulla questione delle attuali
migrazioni e, così, anche la campagna elettorale per le elezioni presidenziali
austriache. Due consultazioni che hanno spaccato a metà Inghilterra
e Austria, rivelando la precarietà dell’assetto istituzionale e comunitario.
È stato, quindi, di grande attualità il convegno “La nuova Europa: migrazioni,
integrazione, sicurezza” che il 14 luglio 2016 ha portato a Roma, durante
l’East Forum 2016, una serie di personalità politiche nazionali e comunitarie.

description: Cosmological gravitational wave backgrounds (CGWBs) are the conglomeration of unresolved gravitational wave signals from early Universe sources, which make them a promising tool for cosmologists. Because gravitons decouple from the cosmic plasma early on, one can consider interactions between gravitons and any particle species that were present in the very early Universe. We show that analogous to the cosmic microwave background, elastic scattering on any cosmological background will induce small distortions in its energy density spectrum. We then quantify the magnitude of these spin-dependent spectral distortions when attributed to the dark matter in the early Universe. Lastly, we give estimates for potentially measurable distortions on CGWBs due to gravitational scattering by primordial black holes.

Advanced Techniques for Monitoring, Simulation and Optimization of Machining Processes
Creators: name: Keshari, Anupam
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2011

description: In today’s manufacturing industry, pressure for productivity, higher quality and cost saving is heavier than ever. Surviving in today’s highly competitive world is not an easy task, contemporary technology updates and heavy investments are needed in state of the art machinery and modern cutting tool systems. If the machining resources are underutilized, feasible techniques are needed to utilize resources efficiently.
The new enhancements in the machine tools sector have enabled opportunities for rapid growth in production rate and high varieties in products in minimum time. But they also raised questions concerning sustainability of exiting manufacturing resources. Buying new machines and tooling lead to huge investments. However, buying new machines and tooling doesn't solve production profitability problems if they are underutilized. In order to find the answer for sustainability of existing manufacturing resources and enhancement of the machining efficiency, researchers are working on finding possible supplementary computer supports. In recent years, the indirect computer supported techniques such as sensor base monitoring and control and virtual machining process simulation have been greatly accepted for real-time decision making, sustainable development and efficient use of machining resources.
This thesis work is focused on the development of advanced techniques for monitoring, simulation and optimization of machining processes. The thesis presents the contributions to the development and application of decision support systems for three fundamental aspects of machining processes:
1)	Chip form monitoring and process condition monitoring through sensor data clustering and classification.
2)	Real time tool wear measurement through tool wear image processing.
3)	Machining operation verification and optimization using machining process simulation.

description: Sixth-order boundary value problems (BVPs) arise in thin-film flows with a surface that has elastic bending resistance. To solve such problems, we first derive a complete set of odd and even orthonormal eigenfunctions -- resembling trigonometric sines and cosines, as well as the so-called ``beam'' functions. These functions intrinsically satisfy boundary conditions (BCs) of relevance to thin-film flows, since they are the solutions of a self-adjoint sixth-order Sturm--Liouville BVP with the same BCs. Next, we propose a Galerkin spectral approach for sixth-order problems; namely the sought function as well as all its derivatives and terms appearing in the differential equation are expanded into an infinite series with respect to the derived complete orthonormal (CON) set of eigenfunctions. The unknown coefficients in the series expansion are determined by solving the algebraic system derived by taking successive inner products with each member of the CON set of eigenfunctions. The proposed method and its convergence are demonstrated by solving two model sixth-order BVPs.

description: We examine canonical quantization of relativistic field theories on the forward hyperboloid, a Lorentz-invariant surface of the form $x_μx^μ= τ^2$. This choice of quantization surface implies that all components of the 4-momentum operator are affected by interactions (if present), whereas rotation and boost generators remain interaction free -- a feature characteristic of Dirac's `` point-form\rq\rq of relativistic dynamics. Unlike previous attempts to quantize fields on space-time hyperboloids, we keep the usual plane-wave expansion of the field operators and consider evolution of the system generated by the 4-momentum operator. We verify that the Fock-space representations of the Poincaré generators for free scalar and spin-1/2 fields look the same as for equal-time quantization. Scattering is formulated for interacting fields in a covariant interaction picture and it is shown that the familiar perturbative expansion of the S-operator is recovered by our approach. An appendix analyzes special distributions, integrals over the forward hyperboloid, that are used repeatedly in the paper.

description: Coelorinchus cf. spinifer [sensu Gilbert and Hubbs, 1920]
Coelorhynchus spinifer Gilbert and Hubbs, 1920:516–519, fig. 30 (holoype: USNM 78226, Gulf of Tomini, Sulawesi [Celebes], 762 fm [1440 m]).
Coelorinchus spinifer: Shao et al., 2008: table 2 (1 spec., SCS, 1098 m; first record from Taiwan).— Iwamoto et al., 2009:47–48, fig. 4A–B (descr. of Taiwan spec.)
MATERIAL EXAMINED (1 spec.).— SCS: ASIZP 66748 (1, 52 HL, 180 TL), CD 322, 1098 m.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES.— 1D II, 11; P i16; GR-I 2+7 (inner); GR-II 1+7 (outer); scales below midbase 1D about 7, below 2D 6; lateral line scales over distance equal to predorsal length ca. 43. Snout sharply pointed, about twice orbit diameter, 45–52% HL; anterolateral margin of snout completely supported by bone; orbit 22–23% HL, internasal width 19%, interorbital 25%, orbit to preopercle 30%, postorbital 30%, upper jaw 22%; length 1D base 1.2 times into 1D-2D interspace; underside of head almost fully covered with tiny deciduous scales. Light organ group II of Iwamoto (1990), fossa narrow and short, not extending to pelvic-fin bases. Scales strong and prickly, spinules on body scales in 3 slightly divergent, ridgelike rows, middle row larger. Ground color brownish, blackish over abdomen, opercles, jaws, and gular and branchiostegal membranes; mouth and gill cavity black; most fins dusky, but P and V blackish, outer V ray pale. Attains at least 185 mm TL.
DISTRIBUTION.— Indonesia off Sulawesi and South China Sea off Taiwan in depths of 1440 m and 1098 m, respectively.
REMARKS.— Coelorinchus spinifer is among the deepest-living members of the genus; only a handful of Coelorinchus species occur at depths greater than 1000 m. The Taiwan specimen is only the second known of the species (Iwamoto et al. 2009). The notably long and strong spinules on the scales, especially on the head ridges, in the holotype and Taiwan specimen, may reflect a juvenile condition. Until a larger size series is obtained, we are uncertain of its status within the genus. It is otherwise similar in most characters to C. smithi.

Second spine of 1D serrated, produced beyond segmented rays, outer V ray prolonged. Upper jaw extends posteriorly to below middle of orbit. Head fully scaled except over gular and branchiostegal membranes; modified, thickened scales above suborbital ridge; body scales covered with slender spinules in about 5 divergent rows.
DISTRIBUTION.— Known only from two specimens, the holotype taken off Japan in 3429 m and the Taiwan specimen taken in the South China Sea in 1982 m.
REMARKS.— The ASIZP specimen was first recorded by Shao et al. (2008) and subsequently described in more detail by Iwamoto et al. (2009). If correctly identified, it represents only the second known specimen of the species. The absence of previous captures since the H.M.S. Challenger made its historic voyage in 1873–1876 is probably owed to the paucity of trawl hauls made at depths exceeding 2000 m in the area. A few character differences that we found between this Taiwan specimen and the holotype have led to some uncertainty as to it identity; it is for this reason that we consider the identification as tentative.

description: The FASER experiment at the LHC is designed to search for light, weakly-interacting particles produced in proton-proton collisions at the ATLAS interaction point that travel in the far-forward direction. The first results from a search for dark photons decaying to an electron-positron pair, using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 27.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 13.6$ TeV in 2022 in LHC Run 3, are presented. No events are seen in an almost background-free analysis, yielding world-leading constraints on dark photons with couplings $ε\sim 2 \times 10^{-5} - 1 \times 10^{-4}$ and masses $\sim$ 17 MeV - 70 MeV. The analysis is also used to probe the parameter space of a massive gauge boson from a U(1)$_{B-L}$ model, with couplings $g_{B-L} \sim 5 \times 10^{-6} - 2 \times 10^{-5}$ and masses $\sim$ 15 MeV - 40 MeV excluded for the first time.

description: BG Ind is a well studied, bright, nearby binary consisting of a pair of F stars in a 1.46-day orbit. We have discovered in the TESS lightcurve for TIC 229804573 (aka BG Ind) a second eclipsing binary in the system with a 0.53-day. Our subsequent analyses of the recent TESS and archival ground-based photometric and radial velocity data, reveal that the two binaries are gravitationally bound in a 721-day period, moderately eccentric orbit. We present the results of a joint spectro-photodynamical analysis of the eclipse timing variation curves of both binaries based on TESS and ground-based archival data, the TESS lightcurve, archival radial velocity data and the spectral energy distribution, coupled with the use of PARSEC stellar isochrones. We confirm prior studies of BG Ind which found that the brighter binary A consists of slightly evolved F-type stars with refined masses of 1.32 and 1.43 $M_\odot$, and radii of 1.59 and 2.34 $R_\odot$. The previously unknown binary B has two less massive stars of 0.69 and 0.64 $M_\odot$ and radii of 0.64 and 0.61 $R_\odot$. Based on a number of different arguments which we discuss, we conclude that the three orbital planes are likely aligned to within 17$^\circ$.

Filosofia, Lingue dell’Università degli Studi Roma Tre si è svolto il terzo appuntamento annuale di “GEOGRAFIE che hanno fatto STORIA. Grandi libri nella geografia italiana contemporanea. I lunghi anni ’80” ideato da Claudio Cerreti, docente di Geografia umana e sociale presso il Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici della stessa università e da Claudio Minca, docente di Geografia culturale presso la Wageningen University.
L’intento principale degli organizzatori è stato quello di analizzare quei volumi
che costituiscono oggi i classici della geografia italiana con il pregio di proporre tale presentazione in modo originale e stimolante. I libri sono stati, infatti, commentati e discussi da due geografi di diversa generazione che hanno raccontato il testo e il contesto dei volumi loro assegnati, esprimendo
un parere come lettori oppure come testimoni diretti degli anni di pubblicazione.
Altrettanto interessante è stata la scelta di invitare alla giornata di studio anche gli stessi autori dei libri che a distanza di anni hanno potuto esprimere una personale valutazione sul loro lavoro.

description: In this paper, the holographic dark energy model is considered in Brans-Dicke theory where the holographic dark energy density $ρ_Λ =3c^2 M^{2}_{pl} L^{-2}$ is replaced with $ρ_{h}=3c^2 Φ(t)L^{-2}$. Here $Φ(t)=\frac{1}{8πG}$ is a time variable Newton constant. With this replacement, it is found that no accelerated expansion universe will be achieved when the Hubble horizon is taken as the role of IR cut-off. When the event horizon is adopted as the IR cut-off, an accelerated expansion universe is obtained. In this case, the equation of state of holographic dark energy $w_h$ takes a modified form $w_h=-{1/3}(1+α+\frac{2}{c}\sqrt{Ω_{h}})$. In the limit $α\to 0$, the 'standard' holographic dark energy is recovered. In the holographic dark energy dominated epoch, power-law and de Sitter time-space solutions are obtained.

Etymology
Named after the type locality in the springs of Lištica River in the vicinity of Široki Brijeg.
Description
Solid elongate-conical shell, 2.0 mm high, apex blunt, slightly elevated protoconch, with four convex whorls and deep suture. Shell colour is translucent-whitish. Teleoconch surface covered by fine axial ribs and fine, close-set spiral cords forming a distinct cancellate structure. With dominating axial ribs. Nepionic whorl covered by 25 wavy granulose close-set spiral ribs connected by granulose irregular structures fusing at malleate apex. Open umbilicus, partly obscured by reflexed columellar margin. The elongate-oval reflexed aperture attached to body whorl by a narrow sulcus. Peristome reflexed along the aperture outline. Outer lip weakly sinuous, straight at its columellar side and slightly protruded adapically. Columellar lip with straight lateral profile. Aperture at basal view stepwise protruded against body whorl.
Differentiating features
Compared to P. olsavskyi sp. nov., differs by its broader, more conical shell, less blunt protoconch, a proportionally larger aperture, more closed umbilicus and more coarsely sculptured protoconch. Shell morphometry comparison with the related species is presented in the Table 2.
Habitat
The type locality consists of two large karst spring risings at Lištica valley 1 km north of Široki Brijeg at 319 m a.s.l. The southern spring is captured for a water supply, while the northern one has a deep spring lake with free outflows through old water mill ruins, where the sandy sediment samples were taken. The spring is most likely getting its water through karst conduits from Rakitno Polje (890 m a.s.l.) and from the sinkholes around the upper Ugrovača River.
Distribution
The species is known only known from the type locality.

description: Sempre più spesso nei documenti programmatici sottesi ai piani di progetto
del nostro Paese capita di intuire interessanti esortazioni verso
nuovi approcci storico-culturali alla lettura del paesaggio; lampi teorici
di illuminata lungimiranza che mancano poi di sostanziarsi in concrete proposte
di integrazione disciplinare con settori di ricerca, come la Geografia
storica, la cui vocazione applicativa è acquisizione teleologica consolidata sugli
scenari internazionali. Ad essere evocata è la consapevolezza della necessità
di aggiornare gli strumenti di analisi con riferimento al ruolo formativo
dei data geografici, al rischio della obliterazione delle “segnature” profonde
del palinsesto paesaggistico, alle possibili procedure di risignificazione delle
relazioni territoriali verticali. In definitiva, “progetto” come attenzione dialogica
alle forme della geografia e alla loro decodifica filologica, “piano”
come reimpostazione semantica capace di ricostruire le tracce fondative dei
paesaggi e di delineare nuove qualità per gli spazi urbani e rurali saldamente
ancorate a paradigmi indiziari; ossia a processi di propedeutica conoscitiva
che alle indagini autoptiche di tipo topografico e archeologico affianchino
lo studio di un alto numero di fonti storico-archivistiche al fine di dimostrare
lo spessore memoriale e la dimensione valoriale e di risorsa dei segni

description: I consider the life of Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986), American Modernist painter and writer, as a series of windows through which she looks at the world and, at different stages, force and nourish the conquest of her identity as American, woman and artist. From the places of her childhood to the opaque period of 'confine' in New York, as Stieglitz’s wife and woman-artist, O’Keeffe plans her evasion, looking for a space of her own where to find the center of her individuality. The opening to the world is embodied in the multiple perspectives that New Mexico offers, in its physical and mental spaces. At Ghost Ranch, and in Abiquiu, O'Keeffe finds the natural sources of a work that brings back originality and discipline.

The present work, articulated within visual studies, literature and culture, considers O’Keeffe’s modernism from a new transcendentalist perspective. The analysis is based on a selection of letters between O'Keeffe and Stieglitz (1913-1946), O'Keeffe and Maria Chabot (1941-1949), on his autobiography (1976), and conversations recorded in C.S.Merril’s Weekends with O'Keeffe (1973-1979), supported by selected images.

I assert that the windows in New Mexico, even if only virtually told in letters, 'mimetic' and 'simulacral’, as in Friedberg’s The Virtual Window, turn out as bold openings in communion with the surrounding nature, and allow the artist to create the necessary exchange to live a collective individuality. O'Keeffe learns that this opening is the vehicle to honor her mission, the filter to better understand herself, protected by the reassuring domesticity, and the positive role model that, in the variations and repetitions of the simplicity of the daily rituals, restores her original relationship with the universe.

description: We present a measurement of the electron charge asymmetry in ppbar->W+X->enu+X events at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV using 0.75 fb-1 of data collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The asymmetry is measured as a function of the electron transverse momentum and pseudorapidity in the interval (-3.2, 3.2) and is compared with expectations from next-to-leading order calculations in perturbative quantum chromodynamics. These measurements will allow more accurate determinations of the proton parton distribution functions.

description: Genus Hymenocephalus Giglioli, 1882
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES.— Snout high, relatively rounded, median nasal process forming a weak snout tip (no horizontal platelike process mesially); paired nasal bone in broad contact along median line, without wide gap around nostril cartilage; head much deeper than wide; body relatively compressed; head mucous canals greatly expanded; head covering membranous and often transparent; light organ long, small lens on chest anterior to pelvic-fin bases connected by a black streak to round posterior lens immediately before anus; ventral striae well developed; fine black lines on gular membrane oriented perpendicular to median line, not netlike; inner GR-I, lower limb 12–16; spinous ray of 1D completely smooth; chin barbel present or absent.
REMARKS.— A genus of about 20 species, four of which are known from Taiwan. Most species do not exceed about 20 cm TL. The highly developed luminescent organ system consisting of a network of fine striations (“ventral striae”) on the cleithrum, chest, and belly regions is seen in gadiforms only in this genus, its closely related genera Hymenogadus and Spicomacrurus, and the monotypic genera Steindachneria Goode and Bean in Agassiz, 1888 and Lepidorhynchus Richardson, 1846. The presence of two lens-like bodies of the light organ, one on the chest, the other immediately before the anus, is unique among the grenadiers to Hymenocephalus, Hymenogadus, and Spicomacrurus. The position of the lenses is similar to that of the ventral fossae of some species of Coelorinchus, but so far as we can determine, there are no comparable structures in that or other grenadiers. The delicate, paper-thin head bones and membranous head integument are usually damaged during capture, adding to the difficulties of identifying specimens.

description: Pruning is a widely used technique for reducing the size of deep neural networks while maintaining their performance. However, such a technique, despite being able to massively compress deep models, is hardly able to remove entire layers from a model (even when structured): is this an addressable task? In this study, we introduce EGP, an innovative Entropy Guided Pruning algorithm aimed at reducing the size of deep neural networks while preserving their performance. The key focus of EGP is to prioritize pruning connections in layers with low entropy, ultimately leading to their complete removal. Through extensive experiments conducted on popular models like ResNet-18 and Swin-T, our findings demonstrate that EGP effectively compresses deep neural networks while maintaining competitive performance levels. Our results not only shed light on the underlying mechanism behind the advantages of unstructured pruning, but also pave the way for further investigations into the intricate relationship between entropy, pruning techniques, and deep learning performance. The EGP algorithm and its insights hold great promise for advancing the field of network compression and optimization. The source code for EGP is released open-source.

description: This article presents results of VLBI observations of regions of H2O maser activity in the Local Group galaxies M33 and IC10. Since all position measurements were made relative to extragalactic background sources, the proper motions of the two galaxies could be measured. For M33, this provides this galaxy's three dimensional velocity, showing that this galaxy is moving with a velocity of 190 +/- 59 km\s relative to the Milky Way. For IC10, we obtain a motion of 215 +/- 42 km/s relative to the Milky Way. These measurements promise a new handle on dynamical models for the Local Group and the mass and dark matter halo of Andromeda and the Milky Way.

description: In this study, self-suspended CaCO3 nanoparticles (M-SCC) derived from thermal activated scallop shells were prepared through the hydration–carbonation reaction and surface modification with sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP). The characterization results proved the successful synthesis and modification of cubic-like CaCO3 particles. Suspension stability of CaCO3 particles was improved greatly after modification. The effects of additive amount of SHMP, modification temperature and time on degradation of SHMP and interaction between SHMP and CaCO3 were discussed using settling height, particle size distribution, zeta potential and viscosity measurements, and the optimum modification sample (M-SCC-OP) with excellent suspension stability was obtained under the condition of 3.0% of SHMP, 55 °C and 40 min. Zeta potential results indicated that surface charge property of CaCO3 was changed from positive to negative, and low viscosity (6.62 mPa·s) for the suspension of M-SCC-OP (23.8 wt.%) further proved strong composite forces among particles. Compared with original CaCO3 particles, suspension rate in a dietary calcium simulation system was improved from 14.2% to 67.6%. This study may help to solve the problem of limited application of CaCO3 in granule products for low solubility and poor suspension stability.
Ultra-low mass PBHs in the early universe can explain the PTA signal

description: Pulsar Timing Array collaborations have recently announced the discovery of a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) at nanohertz frequencies. We analyze the GW signals from the domination of ultra-low mass primordial black holes (PBHs) in the early universe and show that they can explain this recent discovery. This scenario requires a relatively broad peak in the power spectrum of scalar perturbations from inflation with a spectral index in a narrow range of $1.45$ to $1.6$. The resulting PBH population would have mass around $10^{8}$g, and the initial abundance $β_f$ lies between $10^{-10}$ and $10^{-9}$. We find that this explanation is preferred by the data over the generic model, assuming supermassive BHs as the source. These very light PBHs would decay before Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN); however, upcoming third-generation terrestrial laser interferometers would be able to test the model by observing the GW spectrum produced during the formation of the PBHs. Also, the scalar power spectra associated with our scenario will be within the reach of PIXIE probing CMB spectral distortions.

A Holographic QCD and Excited Baryons from String Theory
Creators: name: Park, Jaemo
name: Yi, Piljin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study baryons of arbitrary isospin in a stringy holographic QCD model. In this D4-D8 holographic setting, the flavor symmetry is promoted to a gauge symmetry in the bulk, and produces, as KK modes of the gauge field, pions and spin one mesons of low energy QCD. Baryons of arbitrary isospins are represented as instanton solitons with isospin and spin quantum numbers locked, in a manner similar to the Skyrmion model. The soliton picture leads to a natural effective field theory of arbitrary baryons interacting with mesons. Couplings of baryons to axial mesons, including pions, are dominated in the large $N_c$ limit by a direct coupling to the flavor field strength in five dimensions. We delineate the relevant couplings and determine their strengths. This work generalizes part of hep-th/0701276 and arXiv:0705.2632 [hep-th] to all excited baryons. Due to technical difficulties in introducing relativistic higher spin fields, we perform all computations in the nonrelativistic regime, which suffices for the leading $N_c$ predictions.

The structure and evolution of the bovine prothrombin gene
Creators: name: Irwin, David Michael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The gene for bovine prothrombin is 15.6 Kbp in length which encodes a mRNA of 2025 nucleotides plus a poly(A) tail. The prothrombin gene is composed of 14 exons separated by 13 introns, all of which vary in size. The positions of the introns found within the prothrombin gene provides some insight into the evolution of prothrombin and provide evidence on the origin of introns. Within the activation peptide and leader sequence of precursor prothrombin, some of the introns appear to separate structural and functional protein domains. Introns are found to separate certain domains, including the pre-peptide, the propeptide and Gla region, and each of the kringles. This organization of exons may reflect the evolution of the prothrombin gene as the result of the fusion of exon(s) containing protein domains by exon shuffling. The activation peptide appears to be constructed from four domains: a pre-peptide, a pro-peptide and Gla region, and two kringles. On comparison of the exon organization of the serine protease domain of prothrombin and other serine protease genes, it was found that none of the introns of the prothrombin gene are shared with any of the other serine protease genes. This absence of shared introns is in contrast to the shared introns found for the shared domains of the activation peptide and leader. The positions of the introns of the serine protease domain of serine proteases genes does not appear to reflect the evolution of the serine protease from protein domains, but rather the result of intron insertion into the serine protease coding regions. Intron insertion would also explain the origin of the few introns of the activation peptide that do not appear to separate protein domains. In conclusion, the organization of the exons and introns of the gene for prothrombin reflect both the origin of introns by insertion events, and the use of introns in exon shuffling. The insertion of introns, and the subsequent possibility of exon shuffling appear to have been essential for the evolution of the multidomainal proteins, such as prothrombin, which are essential for vertebrate life.

Presentazione. Cartografia storica e gestione del territorio

Publisher: name: Semestrale di studi e ricerche di geografia
Year: 2010

description: In questo numero del Semestrale di Studi e Ricerche di Geografia, ormai
ben apprezzato nel panorama geografico nazionale, si racchiudono alcuni
lavori incentrati interamente sulla cartografia storica, tema assiduamente
frequentato da chi ha magistralmente coordinato, con impegno
entusiasta, questa interessante raccolta tematica. La pure ancor breve esperienza
in questo campo di ricerca della collega Elena Dai Prà non le ha certamente
impedito di cimentarsi con dovizia nel raccordare la raccolta degli
interventi poi confluiti nel volume, dimostrando, oltre all’ottima capacità organizzativa,
di conoscerne gli aspetti, i problemi e le potenzialità che oggi
tale strumento può offrire. Di sicuro le sue ricerche sulla cartografia trentina,
guidandone la formazione come ricercatore, hanno fatto anche intravedere
nuove opzioni all’interno di un filone tutto sommato rigidamente inquadrato
come prospettive paradigmatiche, suggerendo spunti e riflessioni
orientati dal punto di vista applicativo, facili da verificare in quel contesto
regionale, com’è noto tra i più aperti a livello nazionale verso la formazione
e la ricerca. Un’esperienza, quindi, quella proposta in questo numero monotematico,
che appare particolarmente riuscita e meritevole di attenzione non
tanto per il tema in generale trattato, quello appunto della cartografia storica,
quanto per aver dato un indirizzo preciso alle ricerche proposte, orientate
a considerare la carta antica come uno strumento atto a suggerire orientamenti
sulle scelte attuali e future del territorio, o almeno su alcune di esse.
Una visione in prospettiva che fonda il ragionamento, quale presupposto del
nuovo progetto territoriale, sulla conoscenza della realtà del passato quale
può cogliersi dalla memoria custodita in alcuni elementari simboli grafici, o
in semplici chiazzate di colore, cui è affidata l’evocazione di tratti di paesaggi
campestri o montani, oppure di territori dominati dalle acque, o di variegate
coperture boschive, rese talvolta più incisive dalla visione prospettica magistralmente
espressa in alcune delle carte considerate dalla tecnica “a volo di
uccello”.
