description: This thesis describes the development of a diastereoselective conjugate addition of cyanide. Chapter One contains a critical review of reported asymmetric conjugate additions of cyanide and a brief summary of non-asymmetric conjugate additions of cyanide to enones. Chapter Two summarises the initial research objective of this project; namely development of an enantioselective conjugate addition of cyanide to enones. Chapter Three presents the research undertaken to achieve this objective and the evolution of the project to the successful diastereoselective hydrocyanation employing an oxazolidinone as a chiral auxiliary. In Chapter Three, investigation into the ZnI2 and YbCb catalysed addition of TMSCN to cyclohexenone and other carbonyl compounds is detailed. Since enantioselective adaptation of this methodology proved unsuccessful, further research into the hydrocyanation of a,punsaturated carbonyl compounds under Sm(O'Pr)3 catalysis with the cheap cyanide source, acetone cyanohydrin, is detailed. This is followed by adaptation of the Sm(O'Pr)3 methodology to chiral a,|3-unsaturated W-acyl oxazolidinones to provide a diastereoselective conjugate addition of cyanide. This section includes a review of reported asymmetric conjugate additions to chiral a,(3-unsaturated 7V-acyl oxazolidinones and continues with a discussion of the substrate scope and possible mechanism of the hydrocyanation. Chapter Three concludes with the application of this stereoselective hydrocyanation to the synthesis of three drug molecules, Pregabalin, Baclofen and Rolipram, and includes a brief review of previously reported syntheses of these molecules. Chapter Four summarises the findings in this thesis and offers suggestions for future development of this work. Chapter Five gives full experimental details along with spectroscopic and physical data for all new compounds.
Airy and Painlevé asymptotics for the mKdV equation

Year: 2018

description: We consider the higher order asymptotics for the mKdV equation in the Painlevé sector. We first show that the solution admits a uniform expansion to all orders in powers of $t^{-1/3}$ with coefficients that are smooth functions of $x(3t)^{-1/3}$. We then consider the special case when the reflection coefficient vanishes at the origin. In this case, the leading coefficient which satisfies the Painlevé II equation vanishes. We show that the leading asymptotics is instead described by the derivative of the Airy function. We are also able to express the subleading term explicitly in terms of the Airy function.

Applications of Imino-Diels–Alder Reactions in Synthesis
Creators: name: Chahal, Jasprit Kaur
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The aim of the project was to synthesise (−)-morphine utilising a tethered intramolecular imino-Diels–Alder reaction. This thesis begins by providing brief reviews on the subjects of total synthesis of morphine and asymmetric imino-Diels–Alder reaction. The major section focuses on the research findings in the past four years. Starting with investigations in the development of a novel stereoselective imino-Diels–Alder reaction of methyl propargyl ether derived (1E,3Z)-1-silyloxy-3-(phenylthio)-1,3- dienes with trans-2-phenylcyclohexyl glyoxylate derived N-tosylimine. Following with the progress made so far to synthesise triene II; this was envisaged to be prepared from the enantiomerically pure alcohol III and allylic halide IV. The alcohol III was prepared in a five-step sequence from p-anisaldehyde. However, the synthesis of the allylic halide IV from D-lyxose was more challenging and problematic. Initial efforts for its synthesis via a route incorporating the Ohira–Bestmann reaction caused an unwanted epimerisation. Further efforts, through an eleven-step sequence including Wittig dibromomethylenation and intramolecular ene–yne metathesis gave V or VI. However, the reductive eliminations to give the alcohol precursor to IV were unsuccessful. [Molecular structure diagrams appear here. To view, please open pdf attachment]. Experimental details and characterisation data are provided at the end of the thesis.

description: The hydrolytic deamination of HOHCytN3+ (paths A and B), and 5-HOHMeCytN3+ (paths C and D) have been explored in the presence of the HSO3− group. The activation free energy barriers (ΔGs≠) of paths A and C show significant difference, which increases the possibility in differentiating cytosine (Cyt) from 5-methylcytosine (5-MeCyt) under bisulfite conditions. Meanwhile, the calculated rate constants with Wigner tunnelling correction of the rate-limiting step is much lower for path A than for path C, and by extrapolation, the difference between Cyt and 5-MeCyt for both modified pyrimidine base may have a greater chance by bisulfite treatment.
Universal trees grow inside separating automata: Quasi-polynomial lower bounds for parity games

description: Several distinct techniques have been proposed to design quasi-polynomial algorithms for solving parity games since the breakthrough result of Calude, Jain, Khoussainov, Li, and Stephan (2017): play summaries, progress measures and register games. We argue that all those techniques can be viewed as instances of the separation approach to solving parity games, a key technical component of which is constructing (explicitly or implicitly) an automaton that separates languages of words encoding plays that are (decisively) won by either of the two players. Our main technical result is a quasi-polynomial lower bound on the size of such separating automata that nearly matches the current best upper bounds. This forms a barrier that all existing approaches must overcome in the ongoing quest for a polynomial-time algorithm for solving parity games. The key and fundamental concept that we introduce and study is a universal ordered tree. The technical highlights are a quasi-polynomial lower bound on the size of universal ordered trees and a proof that every separating safety automaton has a universal tree hidden in its state space.

Stretching and buckling of small elastic fibers in turbulence
Creators: name: Allende, Sofia

name: Bec, Jeremie
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Small flexible fibers in a turbulent flow are found to be most of the time as straight as stiff rods. This is due to the cooperative action of flexural rigidity and fluid stretching. However, fibers might bend and buckle when they tumble and experience a strong-enough local compressive shear. Such events are similar to an activation process, where the role of temperature is played by the inverse of Young's modulus. Numerical simulations show that buckling occurs very intermittently in time. This results from unexpected long-range Lagrangian correlations of the turbulent shear.

description: We study the addition energy spectra of phosphorene quantum dots focusing on the role of dot size, edges passivation, number of layers and dielectric constant of the substrate where the dots are deposited. We show that for sufficiently low dielectric constants ($\varepsilon_{sub} < 4$), Coulomb blockade can be observed in dot sizes larger than 10 nm, for both passivated and unpassivated edges. For higher dielectric constants (up to $\varepsilon_{sub} = 30$), Coulomb blockade demands smaller dot sizes, but this depends whether the edges are passivated or not. This dramatic role played by the substrate is expected to impact on the development of application based on phosphorene quantum dots.

description: We present theoretical investigations on the nature and persistence of the strong central hydrogen bond of a tetraamido/diamino quaternized macrocycle. Our theoretical study of the NMR properties of the central hydrogen bond proved difficult to reconcile with the available experimental results, suggesting the possibility of the non-persistence of the central hydrogen bond of the macrocycle in solution. We demonstrate alternative scenarios, in which a tautomerization of the macrocycle in solution gives rise to the experimentally observed NMR shifts.

Perturbative variational formulation of the Vlasov-Maxwell equations
Creators: name: Brizard, Alain J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The perturbative variational formulation of the Vlasov-Maxwell equations is presented up to third order in the perturbation analysis. From the second and third-order Lagrangian densities, respectively, the first-order and second-order Vlasov-Maxwell equations are expressed in gauge-invariant and gauge-independent forms. Upon deriving the reduced second-order Vlasov-Maxwell Lagrangian for the linear nonadiabatic gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell equations, the reduced Lagrangian densities for the linear drift-wave equation and the linear hybrid kinetic-magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are derived, with their associated wave-action conservation laws obtained by Noether method. The exact wave-action conservation law for the linear hybrid kinetic-MHD equations is written explicitly. A new form of the third-order Vlasov-Maxwell Lagrangian is derived in which ponderomotive effects play a crucial role.

description: Using data from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS) of the 2000 U.S. census, the socioeconomic attainments of African immigrants was compared to African Americans in the United States. This comparison was made within the context of assimilation perspective, human capital perspective, and the family investment model. Consistent with previous research findings, the current study found that African immigrants have higher educational attainments than African-Americans in the United States. However, when breaking down the African group by country of birth, African-Americans were found to have higher educational attainments than a few African countries. Generally, the results reveal that African immigrants have higher socioeconomic attainments than African-Americans in the United States. While place of birth was found to have a statistically significant relationship to socioeconomic attainment, within this study race was the most powerful predictor of socioeconomic attainments within these groups. This finding suggests that assimilation and human capital perspectives do not adequately address this observed difference in the socioeconomic attainments of white Africans as compared to black Africans and African Americans.
Robust Adaptive Median Binary Pattern for noisy texture classification and retrieval

Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)

description: Texture is an important cue for different computer vision tasks and applications. Local Binary Pattern (LBP) is considered one of the best yet efficient texture descriptors. However, LBP has some notable limitations, mostly the sensitivity to noise. In this paper, we address these criteria by introducing a novel texture descriptor, Robust Adaptive Median Binary Pattern (RAMBP). RAMBP based on classification process of noisy pixels, adaptive analysis window, scale analysis and image regions median comparison. The proposed method handles images with high noisy textures, and increases the discriminative properties by capturing microstructure and macrostructure texture information. The proposed method has been evaluated on popular texture datasets for classification and retrieval tasks, and under different high noise conditions. Without any train or prior knowledge of noise type, RAMBP achieved the best classification compared to state-of-the-art techniques. It scored more than $90\%$ under $50\%$ impulse noise densities, more than $95\%$ under Gaussian noised textures with standard deviation $σ= 5$, and more than $99\%$ under Gaussian blurred textures with standard deviation $σ= 1.25$. The proposed method yielded competitive results and high performance as one of the best descriptors in noise-free texture classification. Furthermore, RAMBP showed also high performance for the problem of noisy texture retrieval providing high scores of recall and precision measures for textures with high levels of noise.

description: We show that a cumulative action of noise and delayed feedback on an excitable theta-neuron leads to rather coherent stochastic bursting. An idealized point process, valid if the characteristic time scales in the problem are well-separated, is used to describe statistical properties such as the power spectrum and the interspike interval distribution. We show how the main parameters of the point process, the spontaneous excitation rate and the probability to induce a spike during the delay action, can be calculated from the solutions of a stationary and a forced Fokker-Planck equation.

Non-linear Pattern Matching with Backtracking for Non-free Data Types
Creators: name: Egi, Satoshi
name: Nishiwaki, Yuichi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Programming Languages (cs.PL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Non-free data types are data types whose data have no canonical forms. For example, multisets are non-free data types because the multiset $\{a,b,b\}$ has two other equivalent but literally different forms $\{b,a,b\}$ and $\{b,b,a\}$. Pattern matching is known to provide a handy tool set to treat such data types. Although many studies on pattern matching and implementations for practical programming languages have been proposed so far, we observe that none of these studies satisfy all the criteria of practical pattern matching, which are as follows: i) efficiency of the backtracking algorithm for non-linear patterns, ii) extensibility of matching process, and iii) polymorphism in patterns. This paper aims to design a new pattern-matching-oriented programming language that satisfies all the above three criteria. The proposed language features clean Scheme-like syntax and efficient and extensible pattern matching semantics. This programming language is especially useful for the processing of complex non-free data types that not only include multisets and sets but also graphs and symbolic mathematical expressions. We discuss the importance of our criteria of practical pattern matching and how our language design naturally arises from the criteria. The proposed language has been already implemented and open-sourced as the Egison programming language.
Ultrafast X-ray spectroscopy of conical intersections

description: Ongoing developments in ultrafast X-ray sources offer powerful new means of probing the com- plex non-adiabatically coupled structural and electronic dynamics of photoexcited molecules. These non-Born-Oppenheimer effects are governed by general electronic degeneracies termed conical in- tersections which play a key role, analogous to that of a transition state, in the electronic-nuclear dynamics of excited molecules. Using high level ab initio quantum dynamics simulations, we studied time-resolved X-ray absorption and photoelectron spectroscopy (TRXAS and TRXPS, respectively) of the prototypical unsaturated organic chromophore, ethylene, following excitation to its S2 state. The TRXAS in particular is highly sensitive to all aspects of the ensuing dynamics. These X-ray spectroscopies provide a clear signature of the wavepacket dynamics near conical intersections, related to charge localization effects driven by the nuclear dynamics. Given the ubiquity of charge localization in excited state dynamics, we believe that ultrafast X-ray spectroscopies offer a unique and powerful route to the direct observation of dynamics around conical intersections.

Gushangzao

description: Genus Gushangzao Lin & Li, gen. nov.
 Type species. Gushangzao shiqian Lin & Li, sp. nov.
 Etymology. The genus is named after Gushangzao, nickname for one of the 108 outlaws in the classical Chinese literature Outlaws of the Marsh; masculine in gender.
 Diagnosis. Gushangzao Lin & Li, gen. nov. can be distinguished by the subtegulum reduced, almost invisible in ventral view. Tegulum well-developed, almost covering entire cymbium. Sperm duct meandering intricately, visible throughout entire tegulum. Females can be easily recognized by the membranous spermathecae and the fertilization duct attached by a Y-shaped sclerotized structure. In its natural environment, this genus is a kleptoparasite, inhabiting the webs of other theridiid genera (Fig. 74).
Description. Total length 1.67–2.13. Carapace oval, smooth, color gradually darkens dorsally. Fovea obvious, oval. Eight eyes, AER recurved and PER straight. Eyes subequal in size. Both promargin and retromargin of chelicerae with fissident tooth with 2 cusps. Female palp 1 claw, with 5 long denticles. Opisthosoma oval, black with white spots, covered with sparse black setae, with 3 or 4 pairs of outgrowths.
Palp. Femur almost 4 times longer than patella. Tibia 1.5 times longer than patella. Cymbium water drop shaped. Paracymbium absent. Bulb oval. Subtegulum reduced, almost invisible in ventral view. Tegulum large, almost as large as entire bulb. Sperm duct meandering intricately. Tegular apophysis tip expanded, with serration. Terminal apophysis with hood. Conductor tip needle shaped, slightly curved. Embolus curved, originating at approximately 10:00-o’clock-position, without outgrowth.
Genitalia. Epigynal plate oval, with hood anteriorly. Copulatory openings situated centrally. Copulatory ducts connected to spermathecae posteriorly. Spermathecae membranous, almost 3 or 4 times longer than copulatory, tip expanded. Fertilization ducts attached by a Y-shaped sclerotized structure, directed at 12:00-o’clock-position from spermatheca.
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
 Species included. Gushangzao goemon Lin & Li, sp. nov., G. pelorosus (Zhu, 1998) comb. nov., and G. shiqian Lin & Li, sp. nov.
 Remarks. The absence of a second pair of spermathecae, as well as the weakly sclerotized spermathecae indicate that Gushangzao pelorosus (Zhu, 1998) comb. nov. was mistakenly placed in Dipoena Thorell, 1869, a member of Hadrotarsinae Thorell, 1881. However, generic placement in a subfamily is uncertain, so here we consider it as incertae sedis; further study is needed to clarify its taxonomy.

The Synthesis of Evoninic Acids
Creators: name: Shukla, Lena
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2007

description: The 1,4-addition of 2-, and 4-pyridyl cuprates to enones, enoates and unsaturated nitriles have been shown for the first time to be synthetically useful, obtaining the 1,4-addition products in high yields. This methodology has enabled an expedient, highly diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of (-)-evoninic acid (4), using a lipase mediated hydrolytic kinetic resolution step to control the absolute stereochemistry. Model studies made towards the synthesis of hydroxyiso-evoninic acid have established the synthesis of the un-natural product hydroxy evoninic acid 178. The synthesis of hydroxy iso-evoninic acid using a strategy analogous to that used for the synthesis of hydroxy evoninic acid was also investigated. Unfortunately, installation of the methyl group a to the ester in substrate 189 through a variety of methods proved to be impossible.
Vortices on the Higgs Branch of the Seiberg-Witten Theory

description: We study the mechanism of confinement via formation of Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortices on the Higgs branch of N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory with massive fundamental matter. Higgs branch represents a limiting case of superconductor of type I with vanishing Higgs mass. We show that in this limit vortices still exist although they become logarithmically "thick". Because of this the confining potential is not linear any longer. It behaves as $L/\log L$ with a distance $L$ between confining heavy charges (monopoles). This new confining regime can occur only in supersymmetric theories. We also address the problem of quantum stability of vortices. To this end we develop string representation for a vortex and use it to argue that vortices remain stable.

description: Charge transfer in oxide heterostructures can be tuned to promote emergent interfacial states, and accordingly, has been the subject of intense study in recent years. However, accessing the physics at these interfaces, which are often buried deep below the sample surface, remains difficult. Addressing this challenge requires techniques capable of measuring the local electronic structure with high-resolution depth dependence. Here, we have used linearly-polarized resonant X-ray reflectometry (RXR) as a means to visualize charge transfer in oxide superlattices with atomic layer precision. From our RXR measurements, we extract valence depth profiles of SmTiO$_3$ (SmTO)/SrTiO$_3$ (STO) heterostructures with STO quantum wells varying in thickness from 5 SrO planes down to a single, atomically thin SrO plane. At the polar-nonpolar SmTO/STO interface, an electrostatic discontinuity leads to approximately half an electron per areal unit cell transferred from the interfacial SmO layer into the neighboring STO quantum well. We observe this charge transfer as a suppression of the t$_{2g}$ absorption peaks that minimizes contrast with the neighboring SmTO layers at those energies and leads to a pronounced absence of superlattice peaks in the reflectivity data. Our results demonstrate the sensitivity of RXR to electronic reconstruction at the atomic scale, and establish RXR as a powerful means of characterizing charge transfer at buried oxide interfaces.

A Strategy for Isotope Containment by Phase-tagging During Radiosynthesis and Towards the Total Synthesis of (+)-Lycorine
Creators: name: Martin, Laetitia Janine
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: The research described in this report covers two areas of investigation: 1) Devolatilisation of Isotopically Labelled Aromatics via Ge-based Phase-tagging: Isotopically labelled compounds are widely used within the pharmaceutical industry as trace quantities can be easily detected making them ideal for ADME studies on potential drug substances and their metabolites. Generic protocols for the phase-tagged synthesis of aryl-containing intermediates from [14C]-bromobenzene (PhBr) and [14C]-phenol (PhOH) have been developed. The protocols involve devolatilisation of the above mentioned intermediates during the early stages of synthesis thus avoiding health, environmental, regulatory and cost issues associated with incomplete isotopic containment. In particular, this chemistry has been developed in the context of the synthesis of N-Bn-4-acetylamino-4-phenylpiperidine, a key precursor to numerous neuroexcitatory pharmaceuticals including the Sanofi-Aventis neurokinin antagonist saredutant (SR-48968). The key elaboration steps are Ir-catalysed borylation, Suzuki cross-coupling and Mn-catalysed hydration. The approach constitutes a general strategy for the safe preparation of aryl-containing radiolabelled materials. 2) Towards the Total Synthesis of (+)-Lycorine: Work towards the development of a short asymmetric synthesis of the anti-tumour alkaloid (+)-lycorine using 1,4-addition to a cyclic enone and a retro-Cope elimination as key steps has been carried out. As part of this investigation, the diastereoselectivity of 1,4-addition of the lithium enolate of methyldithioacetate (LMDTA) to 4-O-TBScyclohex-2-en-1-one was examined in detail. This study has revealed an intriguing temperature dependent stereodivergency of this process. By controlling the reaction conditions either trans- or cis-selective conjugate addition could be achieved, allowing access to stereochemically defined products previously difficult to access by any other means.

Pairing symmetry and spontaneous vortex-antivortex lattice in superconducting twisted-bilayer graphene: Bogoliubov-de Gennes approach

description: We study the superconducting pairing symmetry in twisted bilayer graphene by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation for all electrons in moiré supercells. With increasing the pairing potential, the system evolves from the mixed nontopological $d+id$ and $p+ip$ phase to the $s+p+d$ phase via the first-order phase transition. In the time-reversal symmetry breaking $d+id$ and $p+ip$ phase, vortex and antivortex lattices accompanying spontaneous supercurrent are induced by the twist. The superconducting order parameter is nonuniform in the moiré unit cell. Nevertheless, the superconducting gap in the local density of states is identical in the unit cell. The twist-induced vortices and nontopological nature of the mixed $d+id$ and $p+ip$ phase are not captured by the existing effective models. Our results suggest the importance of long-range pairing interaction for effective models.

description: We present dyon solutions to an SU(2) Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) gauge theory coupled to a Higgs triplet. We consider different non-Abelian extensions of the DBI action and study the resulting solutions numerically, comparing them with the standard Julia-Zee dyons. We discuss the existence of a critical value of $β$, the Born-Infeld absolute field parameter, below which the solution ceases to exist. We also analyse the effect of modifying the DBI action so as to include the analogous of the $θ$ term, showing that Witten formula for the dyon charge also holds in DBI theories.

description: It has recently been shown that radio interferometric gain calibration can be expressed succinctly in the language of complex optimisation. In addition to providing an elegant framework for further development, it exposes properties of the calibration problem which can be exploited to accelerate traditional non-linear least squares solvers such as Gauss-Newton and Levenberg-Marquardt. We extend existing derivations to chains of Jones terms: products of several gains which model different aberrant effects. In doing so, we find that the useful properties found in the single term case still hold. We also develop several specialised solvers which deal with complex gains parameterised by real values. The newly developed solvers have been implemented in a Python package called CubiCal, which uses a combination of Cython, multiprocessing and shared memory to leverage the power of modern hardware. We apply CubiCal to both simulated and real data, and perform both direction-independent and direction-dependent self-calibration. Finally, we present the results of some rudimentary profiling to show that CubiCal is competitive with respect to existing calibration tools such as MeqTrees.
