description: We enlarge the hom-sets of categories of complete lattices by introducing `state transitions' as generalized morphisms. The obtained category will then be compared with a functorial quantaloidal enrichment and a contextual quantaloidal enrichment that uses a specific concretization in the category of sets and partially defined maps ($Parset$).

Selenium management challenges at Kemess Mine

description: In 1997, Kemess Mine began to place waste rock in permanent storage immediately west of the open pit. Waste rock placement occurred within the watershed boundary of a second-order tributary to Attichika Creek in the larger Finlay River watershed. Although diversion systems were constructed around the Waste Rock Dump, much of the small watershed remains intact, with several perennial and ephemeral sources of water, such as localized wetlands south of the Waste Rock Dump, interception ditches diverting water away from the Pit, and seepage water from the toe of the Waste Rock Dump. All of these sources inevitably report to Waste Rock Creek, and provide habitat for a resident Dolly Varden population. Although the waste rock is non-acid generating, the third source, seepage water from a portion of the Waste Rock Dump, was found to contain elevated selenium concentrations. Selenium concentrations in Waste Rock Creek have consistently exceeded the BC Approved Water Quality Objective since late 2003. In 2004, following a review of cumulative water quality data for Waste Rock Creek and discussions with Kemess staff, selenium was recognized as an element of concern at Kemess Mine by the BC Ministry of Environment (MOE). As a result, comprehensive investigations have followed to: identify the predominant selenium source through data analysis of material characterization and geochemical modeling; develop monitoring programs to adequately characterize trends in the receiving environment water, sediments, benthos, and fish; and develop strategies for effective risk assessment and mitigation. This paper summarizes the findings of enhanced monitoring programs and maps the challenges faced while developing an appropriate mitigation strategy.

description: The identification of drug treatments that are useful in diverse therapeutic settings is a significant driving force in biomedical research [Macarron et al., 2011], [Poureetezadi et al., 2014], [Lamb, 2007]. Typical means for measuring the efficacy of a drug for a given clinical application include protein-protein interactions, cell death, mitochondrial respiration and cell growth as well as broader measurements of absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET), specifically related the the drug or drugs being tested [Szakcs et al., 2008]. A wide array of methods are routinely employed to perform these screens, from ligand binding assays [Wagner et al., 2016] to high-throughput proteomics [Verheul, 2014]. One method that is currently underutilized in small-molecule drug screens and drug discovery is high-throughput transcriptome sequencing, such as RNA-Seq. Although RNA-Seq is routinely used to profile patterns of genetic changes following perturbations such as drug treatment [Young et al., 2014], it has not, to my knowledge, yet been used as the primary readout of a drug screen.
PEN International and its Republic of Letters, 1921-1970

description: In 1921 a circle of writers formed a dinner club in London to welcome foreign writers visiting from abroad. Punningly dubbed the "P.E.N."--for the poets, playwrights, essayists and novelists invited into its fold--the group argued that writers above all could best promote communication and civility across national lines. Over the years, PEN survived a series of onslaughts that undermined this humanistic idea: fascist infiltration, yet another World War, revelations of Holocaust, the shock of atomic warfare, and CIA meddling. By 1970 PEN had become global, transforming from a British club into an organization devoted to protecting freedom of expression and facilitating communication worldwide. In doing so, its members strove to create an institutionalized form of the Republic of Letters, a federation that aimed to model cultural civility to the wider world. PEN survived challenges to its existence because it molded itself to evolving contexts while insisting on the stability of its core values. PEN justified its existence by arguing that its definition of literary values were universal. Yet PEN's ideals needed to be protected and promoted by an institution precisely because they were neither universally accepted nor secure. PEN promoted a distinctly liberal, humanistic, and aesthetically middlebrow definition of literature and its social role. By claiming its values were universal, giving them institutional expression, and attracting the attention of funders and competing governments during the Cold War, PEN helped make liberal humanism seem synonymous with internationalism.

description: Using the 2D Jordan-Wigner transformation we reformulate the square-lattice s=1/2 XY (XZ) model in terms of noninteracting spinless fermions and examine the ground-state and thermodynamic properties of this spin system. We consider the model with two types of anisotropy: the spatial anisotropy interpolating between 2D and 1D lattices and the anisotropy of the exchange interaction interpolating between isotropic XY and Ising interactions. We compare the obtained (approximate) results with exact ones (1D limit, square-lattice Ising model) and other approximate ones (linear spin-wave theory and exact diagonalization data for finite lattices of up to N=36 sites supplemented by finite-size scaling). We discuss the ground-state and thermodynamic properties in dependence on the spatial and exchange interaction anisotropies. We pay special attention to the quantum phase transition driven by the exchange interaction anisotropy as well as to the appearance/disappearance of the zero-temperature magnetization in the quasi-1D limit.

description: The importance of metabolism in tumor initiation and progression is becoming increasingly clear. Metabolic changes induced by oncogenic drivers of cancer contribute to tumor growth and are attractive targets for cancer treatment. Phosphatase and Tensin homolog deleted from chromosome ten (PTEN) is one of the most commonly mutated tumor suppressors in cancer and operates in multiple roles, rendering it a hub for understanding cancer biology and for developing targeted therapy. PTEN’s canonical function is its ability to antagonize the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway by dephosphorylating the lipid second messenger phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) tri-phosphate (PIP3). This thesis focuses on the effects of PTEN loss on cellular metabolism, and the therapeutic vulnerability that stems from metabolic alterations.
      First, we discovered that loss of Pten in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) increases cellular proliferation and the number of replication forks per cell, launching our investigation into metabolic pathways that may be altered to support increased growth. Indeed, we found that Pten-/- cells exhibited a dependence on glutamine for their faster rate of growth, and that glutamine was channeled into the de novo synthesis of pyrimidines.
      The next chapter examined dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), a rate limiting enzyme for pyrimidine ring synthesis in the de novo pyrimidine synthesis pathway. We found that PTEN-deficient primary cells and cancer cell lines were more sensitive to inhibition of DHODH than PTEN WT cells were, and that the growth inhibition could be rescued by metabolites downstream of DHODH. Furthermore, we found that xenografted human triple negative breast cancer tumors in mice could be diminished by treatment with leflunomide, a DHODH inhibitor.
      In the following chapter, we aimed to identify the mechanisms leading to cell death in PTEN mutant cells upon DHODH inhibition. We found that inherent defects in checkpoint regulation in PTEN-deficient cells were exacerbated by the stress of obstructed de novo pyrimidine synthesis, leading to a buildup of DNA damage at replication forks and ultimately chromosomal breaks. This was instigated by AKT-mediated phosphorylation of TOPBP1 that caused inadequate ATR activation, as well as AKT-mediated phosphorylation and inactivation of CHK1.
      In sum, the findings of this thesis indicate that enhanced glutamine flux to de novo pyrimidine synthesis in PTEN mutant cells generates vulnerability to DHODH inhibition. The integration of altered glutamine regulation with PTEN’s effect on replication, DNA damage, and the checkpoint response manifests as synthetic lethality upon DHODH inhibition in cells with PTEN inactivation. Inhibition of DHODH could thus be a promising therapy for patients with PTEN mutant cancers.

It allows the diagonalization of matrizes of sizes up to N\approx 10^6 going far beyond the possibilities of standard diagonalization techniques which need O(N^3) operations. We have applied this method to the kicked Harper model revealing its intricate spectral properties.

PTEN-LONG, a translational variant of the canonical tumor suppressor PTEN

Subjects: Biology

description: Phosphatase and Tensin Homologue on chromosome Ten (PTEN) is a tumor suppressor and an antagonist of the phosphotidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway. We identified a 576-amino acid translational variant of PTEN, termed PTEN-Long, that arises from an alternative translation start site 519 base-pairs upstream of the ATG initiation sequence, adding 173 N-terminal amino acids to the normal PTEN open reading frame. We demonstrate that PTEN-Long is able to act as a lipid phosphatase and that it is able to down regulate PI3K signaling when transiently transfected into cells. We observe that PTEN-Long is down regulated in the tumor cells of breast cancer cases, and that in some cases it is highly expressed by immune cells in the tumor microenvironment indicating that PTEN-Long may play a role in the endogenous response to tumor formation. We demonstrate that PTEN-Long is secreted from cells and can enter other cells. As an exogenous agent, PTEN-Long antagonized PI3K signaling and induced tumor cell death in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore we were able to use the PTEN-Long alternately translated region (ATR) to shuttle fused RFP and p53 into cells, thus opening the possibility that ATR-fusion proteins may be capable of restoring proteins such as lost tumor suppressors back into cells. Using pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) as a case study in order to expand upon our initial observations, we observed loss/down-regulation of PTEN-Long in human PDAC tumor samples as well as in tumor derived cell lines. We demonstrate that this feature of the human disease is recapitulated in a Kras G12D p53 H172R Pdx1-Cre (KPC) mouse model. We examined the efficacy of PTEN-Long treatment alone or in combination with gemcitabine in the KPC model. To our surprise PTEN-Long preformed equivalently to gemcitabine as a monotherapy, and the animals had a significantly increased survival when treated with the PTEN-Long/gemcitabine combination. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanism by which PTEN- Long is cooperating with gemcitabine in this model. The present data strongly supports further exploration of PTEN-Long's utility and potential as a therapeutic agent.

description: We explore the electronic structure and topological phase diagram of heterostructures formed of graphene and ternary bismuth tellurohalide layers. We show that mechanical strain inherently present in fabricated samples could induce a topological phase transition in single-sided heterostructures, turning the sample into a novel experimental realisation of a time reversal invariant topological insulator. We construct an effective tight binding description for low energy excitations and fit the model's parameters to ab initio band structures. We propose a simple approach for predicting phase boundaries as a function of mechanical distortions and hence gain a deeper understanding on how the topological phase in the considered system may be engineered.

description: In various statistical-mechanical models the introduction of a metric onto the space of parameters (e.g. the temperature variable, $β$, and the external field variable, $h$, in the case of spin models) gives an alternative perspective on the phase structure. For the one-dimensional Ising model the scalar curvature, ${\cal R}$, of this metric can be calculated explicitly in the thermodynamic limit and is found to be ${\cal R} = 1 + \cosh (h) / \sqrt{\sinh^2 (h) + \exp (- 4 β)}$. This is positive definite and, for physical fields and temperatures, diverges only at the zero-temperature, zero-field ``critical point'' of the model. In this note we calculate ${\cal R}$ for the one-dimensional $q$-state Potts model, finding an expression of the form ${\cal R} = A(q,β,h) + B (q,β,h)/\sqrt{η(q,β,h)}$, where $η(q,β,h)$ is the Potts analogue of $\sinh^2 (h) + \exp (- 4 β)$. This is no longer positive definite, but once again it diverges only at the critical point in the space of real parameters. We remark, however, that a naive analytic continuation to complex field reveals a further divergence in the Ising and Potts curvatures at the Lee-Yang edge.

The velocity characteristics of the chain versus the external force is shown. Dynamics in the high- and low-velocity regimes are investigated. It is found that in the high-velocity regime, the dynamics is dominated by rotating modes, the velocity shows a branching bifurcation feature, while in the low-velocity regime, the velocity exhibits step-like dynamical transitions, broken by the destruction of strong resonances.

description: Black holes came into existence together with the universe through the quantum process of pair creation in the inflationary era. We present the instantons responsible for this process and calculate the pair creation rate from the no boundary proposal for the wave function of the universe. We find that this proposal leads to physically sensible results, which fit in with other descriptions of pair creation, while the tunnelling proposal makes unphysical predictions. We then describe how the pair created black holes evolve during inflation. In the classical solution, they grow with the horizon scale during the slow roll-down of the inflaton field; this is shown to correspond to the flux of field energy across the horizon according to the First Law of black hole mechanics. When quantum effects are taken into account, however, it is found that most black holes evaporate before the end of inflation. Finally, we consider the pair creation of magnetically charged black holes, which cannot evaporate. In standard Einstein-Maxwell theory we find that their number in the presently observable universe is exponentially small. We speculate how this conclusion may change if dilatonic theories are applied.

We suggest that shallow, state-independent optical lattices with increased lattice constants can give rise to sufficiently small lattice photon scattering and motional dephasing rates as to enable coherence times on the order of the clock transition's natural lifetime. Not only should this scheme be compatible with the relatively high atomic density associated with Fermi-degenerate gases in three-dimensional optical lattices, but we anticipate that certain properties of various quantum states of matter can be used to suppress dephasing due to tunneling.

description: In this paper we prove parts of a conjecture of Herzog giving lower bounds on the rank of the free modules appearing in the linear strand of a graded $k$-th syzygy module over the polynomial ring. If in addition the module is $\mathbb{Z}^n$-graded we show that the conjecture holds in full generality. Furthermore, we give lower and upper bounds for the graded Betti numbers of graded ideals with a linear resolution and a fixed number of generators.

description: This dissertation offers the only comprehensive, in-depth study of early modern Italian organ shutters to date. Once a widespread element of church decoration across northern Italy, painted organ shutters are the only large-scale paintings for the sacred sphere that were conceived in direct dialogue with musical practice. Moreover, through the unfolding of liturgical ritual, the actual music performed on the organ would have enlivened the images that grace the shutters in various ways. Predominantly executed in oil on canvas, these monumental figural paintings of sacred subjects were mounted back-to-back using a shared wooden support and attached to the organ case with a hinging mechanism. When closed, they shielded the pipes, and the images on their exterior side marked the presence of the instrument in its latent state; when open, their interior images provided a visual accompaniment to the sacred music performed during liturgical celebrations. Approximately eighty percent of surviving organ shutters have been removed from their original installation and reformatted as wall paintings, thus depriving them of their original musico-liturgical context and dissociating them from their role as participants in the multisensory experience of the mass. Over 150 sets of shutters are extant, including examples by the illustrious hands of Gentile and Giovanni Bellini, Vittore Carpaccio, Cosmè Tura, Parmigianino, Pordenone, Romanino, Moretto, Tintoretto, and Veronese, among others. This impressive body of works has nonetheless received remarkably little scholarly attention. Although individual sets of shutters do appear occasionally in the existing literature, they are generally discussed in largely stylistic or iconographic terms; only rarely have scholars engaged with questions regarding the original format and function of these objects, both of which are fundamental to understanding how the images were envisioned and experienced. This dissertation constitutes the first full-length study to address these oft-overlooked factors, thereby introducing new interpretive possibilities. The first chapter is dedicated to the most prevalent subject across the genre, the Annunciation, which engages eloquently with the spatial divide between the shutter paintings and is itself imbued with an aural dimension. The second chapter investigates the relationship between the exterior and interior sides of the shutters, and how the images that adorn them express and embody notions of passage, enlivenment, and revelation. The third chapter examines subjects with musical content, whether explicit or more subtly implied. An epilogue explores the afterlives of a selection of these objects following their removal from their initial installation. A chronologically organized checklist of all extant shutter paintings within the established temporal and geographical parameters of the project concludes the dissertation.

description: We present a deep neural network based singing voice synthesizer, inspired by the Deep Convolutions Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) architecture and optimized using the Wasserstein-GAN algorithm. We use vocoder parameters for acoustic modelling, to separate the influence of pitch and timbre. This facilitates the modelling of the large variability of pitch in the singing voice. Our network takes a block of consecutive frame-wise linguistic and fundamental frequency features, along with global singer identity as input and outputs vocoder features, corresponding to the block of features. This block-wise approach, along with the training methodology allows us to model temporal dependencies within the features of the input block. For inference, sequential blocks are concatenated using an overlap-add procedure. We show that the performance of our model is competitive with regards to the state-of-the-art and the original sample using objective metrics and a subjective listening test. We also present examples of the synthesis on a supplementary website and the source code via GitHub.

description: The Yankee Girl Tailings site is comprised of mineral ore process tailings that were placed adjacent to the Salmo River near Ymir BC. Environmental assessment work was initiated in 2004 by the Ministry of Agriculture and Lands to address an Inspector’s Direction issued by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Metal contamination was identified that presented potential risks to human health and the environment. The results, along with conceptual remediation options, were presented at a series of public meetings from 2004 to 2007. A preferred remedial design was selected and construction initiated in September 2007. The remedial activities included consolidating reactive and non-reactive materials under a bentonite clay amended dry cover and constructing a passive treatment system (i.e. engineered wetland bioreactor) to polish groundwater seepage. To protect the site from erosion and to compensate for lost habitat, erosion control barriers were installed, including bio-engineered fish habitat structures. Final revegetation of the site was undertaken in June 2009. Added value was found by incorporating the community’s desires for a final land use through contouring the repository into an amphitheater and incorporating tree islands to mimic a ‘park-like’ setting. Local community members participated in the site revegetation to encourage stewardship of the site.

description: We present the discovery and statistical analysis of $12\;660$ spotted variable stars toward and inside the Galactic bulge from over two-decade-long Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) data. We devise a new method of dereddening of individual stars toward the Galactic bulge where strong and highly nonuniform extinction is present. In effect, $11\;812$ stars were classified as giants and $848$ as dwarfs. Well defined correlations between the luminosity, variability amplitude and rotation period were found for the giants. Rapidly rotating dwarfs with periods $P \leq 2$ d show I-band amplitudes lower than 0.2 mag which is substantially less than the amplitudes of up to 0.8 mag observed in giants and slowly rotating dwarfs. We also notice that amplitudes of stars brighter than $I_0 \approx 16$ mag do not exceed 0.3-0.4 mag. We divide the stars into three groups characterized by correlation between light and color variations. The positive correlation is characteristic for stars that are cooler when fainter, which results from the variable coverage of the stellar surface with spots similar to the sunspots. The variability of stars that are cooler when brighter (negative correlation) can be characterized by chemical spots with overabundance of heavy elements inside and variable line-blanketing effect, which is observed in chemically peculiar stars. The null correlation may results from very high level of the magnetic activity with rapidly variable magnetic fields. This division is readily visible on the color-magnitude diagram (CMD), which suggests that it may depend on the radius of the stars. We detect 79 flaring objects and discuss briefly their properties. Among others, we find that relative brightening during flares is correlated with brightness amplitude.

Galois Theory for Braided Tensor Categories and the Modular Closure

description: Given a braided tensor *-category C with conjugate (dual) objects and irreducible unit together with a full symmetric subcategory S we define a crossed product C\rtimes S. This construction yields a tensor *-category with conjugates and an irreducible unit. (A *-category is a category enriched over Vect_C with positive *-operation.) A Galois correspondence is established between intermediate categories sitting between C and C\rtimes S and closed subgroups of the Galois group Gal(C\rtimes S/C)=Aut_C(C\rtimes S) of C, the latter being isomorphic to the compact group associated to S by the duality theorem of Doplicher and Roberts. Denoting by D\subset C the full subcategory of degenerate objects, i.e. objects which have trivial monodromy with all objects of C, the braiding of C extends to a braiding of C\rtimes S iff S\subset D. Under this condition C\rtimes S has no degenerate objects iff S=D. If the original category C is rational (i.e. has only finitely many equivalence classes of irreducible objects) then the same holds for the new one. The category C\rtimes D is called the modular closure of C since in the rational case it is modular, i.e. gives rise to a unitary representation of the modular group SL(2,Z). (In passing we prove that every braided tensor *-category with conjugates automatically is a ribbon category, i.e. has a twist.) If all simple objects of S have dimension one the structure of the category C\rtimes S can be clarified quite explicitly in terms of group cohomology.
