Fatty acids--Synthesis

description: Similar to many cancers, pancreatic cancer (PDA) assumes an altered metabolic state that is designed to support the manufacture of macromolecules necessary for cell division. For example, membrane synthesis from lipid precursors is dependent on de novo fatty acid synthesis (dnFAS), a pathway that is upregulated in many cancers. The rate-limiting enzyme of dnFAS is fatty acid synthase (FASN), an enzyme that is overexpressed in cancer but found at very low levels in normal tissues. Here we demonstrate that fatty acid synthase (FASN) inhibition using novel small molecule inhibitor IPI-9119 induces apoptosis in FASN overexpressing epithelial cells of a pre-clinical pancreatic cancer mouse model (KPC). We also provide evidence that FASN inhibition insensitivity in PDA cells is due to flux through scavenging pathways, particularly macropinocytosis. We initially hypothesized that FASN overexpression is a survival strategy for PDA epithelial cells through which they acclimate to a low nutrient microenvironment. Indeed, K-ras driven metabolic reprograming has been shown to increase flux through the dnFAS pathway indicating that PDA cells should rely heavily on FASN activity. Surprisingly we found that PDA cell lines are minimally affected by FASN inhibition and rely chiefly on scavenging pathways. In vitro cells displayed a dependency on lysosomal function, determined using lysosomal inhibitor chloroquine (CQ). Dual therapy with FASN inhibitor, IPI-9119, and lysosomal inhibitor, CQ, increased apoptosis and decreased cell viability in human PDA cell lines and in bulk KPfl/flC PDA tumors. Our findings suggest that mutated epithelial tumor cells overexpress FASN and that these oncogenic cells can be specifically targeted using FASN inhibition. Our findings in regards to scavenging pathways demonstrate that PDA is reliant on lysosomal activity and may utilize both autophagy and macropinocytosis to maintain lipid levels in addition to dnFAS. Dual therapy with a FASN inhibitor and a lysosomal inhibitor induces apoptosis in PDA cell lines regardless of their sensitivity to FASN inhibition alone indicating that this therapeutic strategy, dual treatment with lysosomal inhibitors and FASN inhibitors, should be further developed. Our major conclusions from this work are: (1) that PDA is not solely dependent on FASN activity for lipid maintenance but short-term inhibition results in targeted apoptosis in FASN expressing cells, in vivo. (2) Lipid scavenging pathway macropinocytosis accounts for primary resistance to FASN inhibition in vitro, although autophagy may also contribute. (3) Dual inhibition of FASN and lysosomal function induces apoptosis and decreases proliferation in PDA cell lines and tumors.

description: Spin-space groups (SSGs), including the traditional space groups (SGs) and magnetic space groups (MSGs) as subsets, describe the complete symmetries of magnetic materials with weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In the present work, we systematically study the irreducible representations (irreps) of SSGs by focusing on the projective irreps of the little co-group $L(k)$ of any momentum point $\pmb k$. We analysis the factor systems of $L(k)$, and then reduce the projective regular representation of $L(k)$ into direct sum of irreps using the Hamiltonian approach. Especially, for collinear SSGs which contain continuous spin rotation operations, we adopt discrete subgroups to effectively capture their characteristics. Furthermore, we apply the representation theory of SSGs to study the band structure of electrons and magnons in magnetic materials. After identifying the SSG symmetry group, we extract relevant irreps and determine the $k\cdot p$ models. As an example, we illustrate how our approach works for the material \ch{Mn3Sn}. Degeneracies facilitated by SSG symmetry are observed, underscoring the effectiveness of application in material analysis. The SSG recognition and representation code is uploaded to GitHub, the information of irreps of all SSGs is also available in the online Database. Our work provides a practical toolkit for exploring the intricate symmetries of magnetic materials and paves the way for future advances in materials science.

description: A direct numerical simulation of many interacting ions in a Penning trap with a rotating wall is presented. The ion dynamics is modelled classically. Both axial and planar Doppler laser cooling are modeled using stochastic momentum impulses based on two-level atomic scattering rates. The plasmas being modeled are ultra-cold two-dimensional crystals made up of 100's of ions. We compare Doppler cooled results directly to a previous linear eigenmodes analysis. Agreement in both frequency and mode structure are obtained. Additionally, when Doppler laser cooling is applied, the laser cooled steady state plasma axial temperature agrees with the Doppler cooling limit. Numerical simulations using the approach described and benchmarked here will provide insights into the dynamics of large trapped-ion crystals, improving their performance as a platform for quantum simulation and sensing.

description: We present the first experimental tests of the recently derived fusion rules for Navier-Stokes (N-S) turbulence. The fusion rules address the asymptotic properties of many-point correlation functions as some of the coordinates coalesce, and form an important ingredient of the nonperturbative statistical theory of turbulence. Here we test the fusion rules when the spatial separations lie within the inertial range, and find good agreement between experiment and theory. An unexpected result is a simple linear law for the Laplacian of the velocity fluctuation conditioned on velocity increments across large separations.

description: In the field of urology, the trend towards minimally invasive treatments has spurred the development of innovative solutions like biodegradable stents. This study focuses on creating and evaluating 3D-printed biodegradable polymer stents for ureteral applications, utilizing the precision of advanced 3D printing technology. The stents are designed to meet the anatomical and functional demands of the urethra, ensuring effective placement and functionality over their intended lifespan. A vital aspect of the study is assessing the stents' mechanical properties. Additionally, in vitro degradation tests in Phosphate-Buffered Saline are conducted to emulate the urinary tract's conditions and evaluate the stent. These investigations are critical in ensuring the stents degrade in alignment with the body's healing processes, potentially reducing the need for further surgeries. Preliminary results show that the 3D-printed stents meet the necessary mechanical specifications and exhibit a degradation pattern. This research contributes significantly to urological treatments and demonstrates the potential of 3D printing in personalized medical device fabrication. Such advancements are pivotal in enhancing therapeutic efficacy and patient care, marking a significant stride toward patient-centered healthcare.

Subjects: quinone, calothrixin, Structure-Activity Relationship Studies, QSAR, medicinal chemistry, QSAR

description: Calothrixin A and B are novel pentacycIic qui nones that have been isolated from the Calothrix cyanobacteria. The calothrixins exhibit anti proliferative activity against chloroquine resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum, the deadliest causative agent of malaria. Furthermore, these compounds have potent and selective activity against a range of human cancer cell lines. These biological properties have led to the identification of the calothrixins as lead compounds for drug development. A brief review of the calothrixins and other quinones, as well as an overview of Structure Activity (SAR) and Quantitative SAR studies is presented in Chapter 1. ... The ability of calothrixin A to undergo one-electron reduction to the semiquinone radical anion led to the hypothesis that calothrixin A may accumulate in cells. This mechanism of redox-driven accumulation of compounds was first observed in our SAR and QSAR studies of the epidithiopiperazine-2,5-diones (ETP compounds). These studies have led to the proposal that there is a relationship between the reduction potential of ETP compounds and the intracellular concentration of these toxins leading to redox-driven biological accumulation of the ETP compounds. To determine if the cellular accumulation of calothrixin A is driven by a similar process, uptake studies were carried out. This work is described in detail in Chapter 5. The details of the procedures for experiments carried out in Chapters 2 to 5 are given in Chapter 6, along with the relevant data used to characterize the synthetic compounds.
Organisational adventures in district government: central control versus local initiative in Long An Province, Vietnam
Creators: name: Hicks, Natalie
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2005
Subjects: local government, decentralisation, administrative reform, revolution

description: Most studies of sub-national government in rural Vietnam have focused on the commune and province level governments. This dissertation is an examination of district (huyen) government. It shows that the district was important to the central government both before the Communist victory in 1975 and afterwards and that the district level has remained a primary interface between the villagers and higher authorities. This study also examines tensions between central governments' attempts to control rural areas and localist tendencies that exist within district administrations.The dissertation focuses on selected districts in Long An province in the Mekong Delta during three periods: the wartime South Vietnamese regime, which existed below the seventeenth parallel from 1955 until its defeat by the Communists in 1975; the late 1970s and 1980s when the Communist government in Hanoi pursued a district-building campaign; and the reform era of the 1990s. Under the South Vietnamese regime and in the pre-reform era of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, local initiative was stifled as policy was dictated by the central government, with disastrous consequences. Most literature on this subject emphasises a sharp break between pre-1975 and post-1975 Vietnam. By contrast, this dissertation highlights the way in which there are important elements of continuity between both regimes in terms of central government measures to control district government through administrative re-organisation and top-down policy implementation. In the reform era, the dynamics of central regulation versus district control have changed. The district government now has greater latitude to develop innovative 'local' approaches to agricultural development. Using a state-in-society approach that is generous enough to avoid definitive boundaries between state and society, the study examines how district officials have been joined by 'associates of the state', particularly agricultural extension officers, who act as a link between state and societal objectives. This interaction has contributed to increased prosperity for many villagers while also raising inequality. The study also shows that while the central government has been more willing to allow local experimentation during the reform era, its influence and interests are still felt at the district level.

description: We consider a passive scalar that is advected by a prescribed mean zero divergence-free velocity field, diffuses, and reacts according to a KPP-type nonlinear reaction. We introduce a quantity, the bulk burning rate, that makes both mathematical and physical sense in general situations and extends the often ill-defined notion of front speed. We establish rigorous lower bounds for the bulk burning rate that are linear in the amplitude of the advecting velocity for a large class of flows. These "percolating" flows are characterized by the presence of tubes of streamlines connecting distant regions of burned and unburned material and generalize shear flows. The bound contains geometric information on the velocity streamlines and degenerates when these oscillate on scales that are finer than the width of the laminar burning region. We give also examples of very different kind of flows, cellular flows with closed streamlines, and rigorously prove that these can produce only sub-linear enhancement of the bulk burning rate.

A vector field method for massless relativistic transport equations and applications

Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)

description: In this article, we present a vector field method for the study of solutions to massless relativistic transport equations. Compared to the methodologie developped by Fajman-Joudioux-Smulevici, we remove the Lorentz boosts of the commutation vector fields, which makes our method more suitable for the study of systems coupling a massless Vlasov equation with an equation which has a different speed of propagation. We also believe that our approach can be adapted more easily to the context of curved backgrounds. In a second time, we apply our method in order to derive sharp decay estimates on the spherically symmetric small data solutions of the relativistic massless Vlasov-Poisson system. No compact support assumption is required on the data and, in particular, the initial decay in the velocity variable is optimal. In order to compensate the slow decay rate of the particle density near the light cone, we take advantage of the null structure of the equations.

description: This practice-led research seeks to expand an understanding of the body–object–space through wearable objects that challenge the boundaries of contemporary jewellery in the visual arts. This studio research aims to accentuate a space that may otherwise be unnoticed by extending or limiting the senses through the placement of ambiguous objects on the body. The exegesis analyses the co-dependency between human and wearable objects, the inner being and outer being, and the process whereby wearable objects gain value from the maker, wearer and viewer. Revealing the body–object–space as co-actors, performances captured in photography and video may offer different perspectives of relational space, which could be intimate or public. As such, this research has utilised photography and video to document people in movement wearing the jewellery and small objects I have made during my candidature. At the outset of the research, I considered how movement offers us an important way to understand how the body and wearable objects work, allowing us to comprehend the space around the body, including the psychological processes that are evoked. This led to the realisation that the body–object–space is a place where we create and relate; hence, it helps us to understand human nature and identity.

Intermittency in the large N-limit of a spherical shell model for turbulence

Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)

description: A spherical shell model for turbulence, obtained by coupling $N$ replicas of the Gledzer, Okhitani and Yamada shell model, is considered. Conservation of energy and of an helicity-like invariant is imposed in the inviscid limit. In the $N \to \infty$ limit this model is analytically soluble and is remarkably similar to the random coupling model version of shell dynamics. We have studied numerically the convergence of the scaling exponents toward the value predicted by Kolmogorov theory (K41). We have found that the rate of convergence to the K41 solution is linear in 1/N. The restoring of Kolmogorov law has been related to the behaviour of the probability distribution functions of the instantaneous scaling exponent.

My blood, sweat and tears: female sex workers in Cambodia - victims, vectors or agents?

description: This thesis sets out to explore and demystify two dominant images of female sex workers produced by hegemonic discourses of our period: one a ruined, victimised woman; the other a destroying body that is a public health menace. It challenges these discourses of alterity, of the sex worker as “other” and their antithetical constructions of women’s agency. ... My Blood, Sweat and Tears is part of the broader struggle to resignify the place of sex workers internationally, especially in relation to the complex interplay between structural constraints and determinants and women’s agency and self-determination. Its central conclusion is that an awareness of women’s agency does not mean that we have to ignore structural inequalities, grounded in gender or economics.

description: This paper introduces FlowMAC, a novel neural audio codec for high-quality general audio compression at low bit rates based on conditional flow matching (CFM). FlowMAC jointly learns a mel spectrogram encoder, quantizer and decoder. At inference time the decoder integrates a continuous normalizing flow via an ODE solver to generate a high-quality mel spectrogram. This is the first time that a CFM-based approach is applied to general audio coding, enabling a scalable, simple and memory efficient training. Our subjective evaluations show that FlowMAC at 3 kbps achieves similar quality as state-of-the-art GAN-based and DDPM-based neural audio codecs at double the bit rate. Moreover, FlowMAC offers a tunable inference pipeline, which permits to trade off complexity and quality. This enables real-time coding on CPU, while maintaining high perceptual quality.

description: Real-time monitoring of carbon fibre composites during Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) manufacturing remains a challenge for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. An directional eddy-current (EC) probe with asymmetric transmit and differential receive (Tx-dRx) coils is designed, constructed and characterized to evaluate the detectability of out-of-plane wrinkles. Initial studies were conducted to determine suitable excitation frequencies and to analyse the impact of relative orientations of driver and pickup coils on wrinkle detectability. The probe configurations are evaluated experimentally and employ a new finite element modelling approach to better understand the relationship between eddy-current density and defect detection. The findings indicate that a probe configuration with an asymmetric driver coil normal to the material surface and aligned with the fibre directions, and with differential pickup coils 90 degrees to the scanning direction, shows the best capability for out-of-plane wrinkle detection, with SNR >20 for wrinkles over 1.3 mm in amplitude.

description: Young children with HCP experience difficulties performing age-appropriate daily activities such as self-care and play. Research in neuroplasticity has shown that intensive, task-specific training in early development is ideal to maximize functioning in children with HCP. The aim of this study was to analyze the feasibility of a new manualized clinical guideline, Family Activity Adaptation Model (FAAM), via Telehealth to coach families to develop daily activities and routines that facilitate functional bimanual skills in young children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (HCP). Ten caregivers and children with HCP (3-7 years) received virtual training on how to embed bimanual intensive training (HABIT) into their everyday activities and routines on their own at home for 90 minutes a day, 5 days a week over 8 weeks. Caregivers and children received virtual coaching using the FAAM method 2 times per week. FAAM Activity Analysis was used to describe manual development. Daily activity logs were used to assess family adherence and home program feasibility. Bimanual functional goal performance and satisfaction was measured using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Perceived changes in overall bimanual functional skills were evaluated using the Mini-Children’s Hand Use Experience Questionnaire (Mini-CHEQ). Caregiver stress, burden and program satisfaction was monitored using the Parenting Stress Index (PSI-4-SF), the Ease of Caregiving for Children measure and a caregiver satisfaction survey. The measures were assessed immediately prior to (pretest), midpoint (burden measures only, repeated measures ANOVA) and immediately after (posttest, Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test) the intervention. All families made statistically and clinically significant improvements in goal performance (p=.008) satisfaction (p=.007), and overall bimanual hand use (p=.035). All families completed daily logs and practiced strategies for an average of 81.37 (SD=7.069) minutes a day. Caregiver burden and stress remained consistent throughout the study and all caregivers reported satisfaction with the program. This is the first study to manualize a family centered, telehealth-delivered intensive motor training program. This study adds a continuum of care and access to services for children and families with limited resources. The study supports clinicians with home program design and meets the individual needs of families using resources in their natural environment.

description: We test M. Berry's ansatz on nodal deficiency in presence of boundary. The square billiard is studied, where the high spectral degeneracies allow for the introduction of a Gaussian ensemble of random Laplace eigenfunctions ("boundary-adapted arithmetic random waves"). As a result of a precise asymptotic analysis, two terms in the asymptotic expansion of the expected nodal length are derived, in the high energy limit along a generic sequence of energy levels. It is found that the precise nodal deficiency or surplus of the nodal length depends on arithmetic properties of the energy levels, in an explicit way. To obtain the said results we apply the Kac-Rice method for computing the expected nodal length of a Gaussian random field. Such an application uncovers major obstacles, e.g. the occurrence of "bad" subdomains, that, one hopes, contribute insignificantly to the nodal length. Fortunately, we were able to reduce this contribution to a number theoretic question of counting the "spectral semi-correlations", a concept joining the likes of "spectral correlations" and "spectral quasi-correlations" in having impact on the nodal length for arithmetic dynamical systems. This work rests on several breakthrough techniques of J. Bourgain, whose interest in the subject helped shaping it to high extent, and whose fundamental work on spectral correlations, joint with E. Bombieri, has had a crucial impact on the field.

description: Abstract Background The complex interrelationships between professional identity, job satisfaction, burnout, and turnover intention among general practitioners (GPs) are insufficiently understood in China. This study aimed to investigate the interrelationships between professional identity, job satisfaction, burnout, and turnover intention in China, and to examine whether job satisfaction and burnout played mediating roles between professional identity and turnover intention. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted between October, 2017 and February, 2018 in China. The participants were selected using a multistage stratified random sampling method. Data were collected with a self-administered questionnaire from 3236 GPs (response rate, 99.8%) working in community health institutions in China. Professional identity was measured by the 13 items scale, and job satisfaction scale with an 11-item designed by Shi et al. was employed. Burnout was measured using a 22-item Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey, and turnover intention was measured with a 6 items scale. Descriptive statistics were calculated and groups’ differences were estimated Student’s t-test and analyses of variance. Pearson’s correlation analysis was used to assess the degree of correlation among different dimensions of professional identity, job satisfaction, burnout, and turnover intention. Structural equation modeling analysis was applied to examine the interrelationships among these study variables based on the hypothesized model. Results The proposed model achieved a good model fit. Job satisfaction had a direct negative effect on turnover intention (β = − 0.38, P
The biological role of Asn-linked glycosylations of DENV-2 E protein
Creators: name: Leang, Sook Kwan
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2008

description: The envelope proteins of many viruses are glycosylated, where the glycans on the virion surface have been shown to be important, in addition to their strictly structural role, in various aspects of the virus life cycle, such as receptor-binding and escape from antibody recognition. Dengue virus (DENV) is in terms of human disease frequency the most important member of the flaviviruses, a group of small, enveloped, plus-strand RNA viruses. The four DENV serotypes differ from all other flaviviruses by the presence of two glycans on the envelope (E) protein, one linked to Asn-153, a glycosylation which is well conserved among the flaviviruses, and a second linked to Asn-67, which is unique to DENY. While the presence of glycan at Asn-153 has been shown by others to influence fusion of viral with cellular membranes, infectivity, assembly and/or release and virulence, the glycan at Asn-67 has been suggested to be critical in virus attachment to the cell surface molecule, DC-SIGN, a putative cellular receptor for DENV. In this study, I have used a reverse genetics approach to prevent glycosylation at Asn-67, Asn-153, or both carbohydrate acceptor sites, in order to investigate their physiological function(s). Single or multiple point mutation were introduced at the Asn-153 and Asn-67 glycosylation sites, respectively, on the E protein ofDENV-2 strains NGC and PUO-218, using two infectious cDNA clones. DENV -2 strain, NGC, is a laboratory-adapted virus, while strain PUO-218 is a low-passage natural isolate from Toxorhynchites splendens mosquitoes. ... I also show that removal of both glycans from the DENV-2 E protein prevents the recovery of viable virus with a stable mutant genotype (Chapters 3 and 5). Nevertheless, given the importance of strain origin and type of substitution used for deletion of the carbohydrate acceptor sites that I have demonstrated in this thesis, it is likely that the engineering of a viable DENV variant lacking both E protein glycans is feasible.

Walking my hometown: practices of everyday nationalism in contemporary Japan
Creators: name: Kawabata, Kohei
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2006
Subjects: Nationalism, Zainichi Korean, hometown

description: This thesis questions the nationalism that is practiced in everyday life, which the conventional studies of nationalism have not fully dealt with. As a series of case studies, I deal with the rise of neo-nationalism in contemporary Japanese society. In particular, I focus on the 'border-creation' that is practiced in the everyday lives of people through labour and consumption. The people who are living in advanced capitalist states in the age of global information capitalism do not exclaim "hot nationalism" but rather consume "cool nationalism". ... While conventional ethnic studies tend to focus on either the 'majority' or 'minority', this thesis focuses on the interactions and linkages between the 'majority' and 'minority'. In consumer-oriented society, residence and lifestyle are increasingly becoming similar to each other. While 'majority' or 'minority communities are dismantling, their lifestyles have become 'individualized'. In that sense, through focusing on the interactions and linkages between the two groups, it is possible to identify a critical cooperation between the two within a consumer-oriented Japanese society in the age of global information capitalism. Through the encounters with my friends and Zainichi Koreans in my hometown, the idea of "Japanese", "hometown", and "friends" is critically questioned. Then, the "familiar" landscape of my hometown becomes something "unfamiliar".
title: Reasons Why Dravidian Boys in Australia Do or Do Not Choose to Learn Bharatanatyam
Creators: name: Menon, Vidyakartik Vijayadas

Subjects: subject: Dravidian boys, Australia
subject: Bharatanatyam (Classical dance)

subject: South Asian diaspora in Australia
subject: Attitudes towards culture

description: This thesis explores the attitudes of Dravidian boys in Australia towards learning and performing bharatanatyam—a classical dance form that traces its origins to Tamil Nadu in South India. The study argues that at present, research into immigrant South Asian men’s attitudes towards performing identity through classical art forms such as bharatanatyam is highly disjointed and underdeveloped. This thesis identifies significant gaps in existing research, including the role of performing arts education in the negotiation of cultural and gender identity among immigrant men; the experiences of the South Asian diaspora in Australia; and in particular, younger members of the community; and the perceived contribution of classical bharatanatyam in the cultural preservation of diasporic South Asians. This study, therefore, investigates how attitudes towards gender and culture have shaped the way in which boys from immigrant Dravidian backgrounds have negotiated and renegotiated their gender and cultural identities in bharatanatyam spaces in Australia, and in turn, the influence this has had on the choices Dravidian boys make to engage with the art form. The investigation is centred on the following two questions: How do attitudes towards gender influence the decisions of Australian-Dravidian boys to learn or not to learn bharatanatyam? and How do attitudes towards culture influence the decisions of Australian-Dravidian boys to learn or not to learn bharatanatyam?

Roles of Notch and NF-kB signaling in allogeneic responses

description: The induction of robust allograft tolerance is the ultimate goal for clinical transplantation. Although studies have identified that dendritic cells (DCs) are important for induction of antigen-specific tolerance, the requirements for generating tolerogenic DCs are yet to be elucidated. Recently, it has been demonstrated the modulation of two signaling pathways, Notch and nuclear factor KB (NF-KB) can render DCs tolerogenic. The studies documented here examine (1) whether immature DCs over-expressing Notch-related molecules (Jagged-I, Delta-like-I (Dll-I), Lunatic Fringe (Ung) , and Manic Fringe (Mfng)) act as immunoregulatory DCs and promote allograft survival; and (2) whether DCs deficient in NF-KB signaling inhibit the alloreactive T cell response and promote allograft survival ... Although the potential for Notch signaling to promote alloantigen-specific tolerance remains unresolved, these studies suggest that inhibition of NF-KB signaling in DCs represent a potential approach for promoting allograft survival.

description: We study the Schrödinger operator $-Δ-αδ(x-Γ)$ in $L^2(\R^3)$ with a $δ$ interaction supported by an infinite non-planar surface $Γ$ which is smooth, admits a global normal parameterization with a uniformly elliptic metric. We show that if $Γ$ is asymptotically planar in a suitable sense and $α>0$ is sufficiently large this operator has a non-empty discrete spectrum and derive an asymptotic expansion of the eigenvalues in terms of a ``two-dimensional'' comparison operator determined by the geometry of the surface $Γ$.

description: We develop an approach for characterizing non-local quantum correlations in spin systems with exactly or nearly degenerate ground states. Starting with linearly independent degenerate eigenfunctions calculated with exact diagonalization we generate a finite set of their random linear combinations with Haar measure, which guarantees that these combinations are uniformly distributed in the space spanned by the initial eigenstates. Estimating the von Neumann entropy of the random wave functions helps to reveal previously unknown features of the quantum correlations in the phases with degeneracy of the ground state. For instance, spin spiral phase of the quantum magnet with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is characterized by the enhancement of the entanglement entropy, which can be qualitatively explained by the changes in behaviour of two- and three-spin correlation functions. To establish the connection between our theoretical findings and real experiments we elaborate on the problem of estimating observables on the basis of the single-shot measurements of numerous degenerate eigenstates. By the example of solving a simple Ising model it is shown that digital quantum simulations performed with quantum computers can provide accurate description of the entanglement of the degenerate systems even in the presence of noise. We also discuss the ground state properties of degenerate fermionic and bosonic models, which can be useful for theoretical analysis of the experiments with ultracold atoms.
