description: Motile cilia have many developmental and physiological functions. The hallmark of motile cilia are their axonemal dynein motor proteins that generate movement. These large protein complexes require cytoplasmic pre-assembly prior to transport and docking in the cilium, together with an array of associated support complexes, including nexin-DRC and radial spokes. Motile cilia reside in a number of epithelial surfaces, ranging from respiratory airways to fallopian tubes and are similar in structure to sperm flagella. Defective motility in humans results in complex clinical manifestations including chronic bronchitis, situs inversus and infertility, which are classical symptoms of the motile ciliopathy primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). In human PCD patients and in model organisms, a number of ‘assembly factors’ have been identified that appear to act with molecular chaperones to guide dynein motor assembly, but the assembly of other complexes is poorly characterised. In a Drosophila transcriptomic screen for new candidate ciliogenic chaperones, CG6980 (Ttc12A) and CG34297 (Ttc12B), were found to be significantly enriched in motile-cilium-bearing cells. Both genes are co-orthologues of human TTC12, which encodes a tetratricopeptide repeat-containing protein predicted to bind the chaperone HSP90, but of unknown function. In this thesis, I demonstrate that Ttc12A/B are expressed exclusively in developing chordotonal mechanosensory neurons, and that TTC12A expression also occurs in spermatocytes, thereby correlating with the only two cell types in Drosophila that generate a motile cilium/flagellum. CRISPR-generated deletion mutants of each gene exhibit loss of chordotonal neuron mechanosensory response to sound or stretch, which normally requires ciliary motility. Mutation of Ttc12A additionally renders sperm immotile, with the mutant sperm showing a loss of dynein arms, as well as a disruption of the axoneme organisation. This is consistent with defects in trafficking and docking of dynein complexes. Reporter line data on chordotonal neuron cilia suggests that TTC12A and TTC12B proteins are required for correct protein trafficking and organisation on the axoneme. Proteomic analysis of Ttc12A null mutant spermatocytes corroborate these findings, as well as indicating a reduction in CCDC39/40 molecular ruler protein homologues, essential for accurate docking of inner dynein arms, nexin-DRC and radial spokes. Furthermore, a striking decline in expression of several dynein heavy chains and associated components were also noted. In conclusion, I hypothesise that Ttc12A/B encode co-chaperones involved in the assembly and trafficking of ciliary motility complexes.

description: Scrambling dynamics induced by random unitary gates can protect information from low-rate measurements, which underpins the phenomenon known as the measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT). However, typical decoherence noises disrupts the volume law phase, complicating the observation of MIPT on noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. Here, we demonstrate that incorporating quantum-enhanced operations can effectively protect MIPT from environmental noise, thereby enabling its detection in experiment. The transition is characterized by the conditional entanglement entropy (CEE), which is associated with a statistical mechanics model wherein noise and quantum-enhanced operations act as competing external random fields. When the net external field is zero, a ferromagnetic-paramagnetic phase transition is expected, resulting in the MIPT. This zero-field condition also ensures an average apparatus-environment symmetry, making CEE a valid probe of entanglement and establishing the transition as a genuine entanglement phase transition. Additionally, we provide numerical results demonstrate the MIPT in a (2+1)-dimensional quantum circuit under dephasing noise. We also propose a method to estimate the noise rate, enabling the zero-field condition to be achieved experimentally and ensuring the feasibility of our protocol. Our result serves as a concrete example of the power of quantum enhancement in combating noise.

description: In recent years, there has been a focus on integrating and miniaturising complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) electrochemical sensors, particularly ion-sensitive field-effect transistors (ISFETs), for applications in healthcare and environmental monitoring. However, CMOS-based ISFETs do not always show stable behaviour, and their interface circuits are not suited to supply voltage variation. This work aims to develop a stable platform for sub-pH detection by addressing these challenges. This work presents two front-end architectures for pH signal frequency conversion, suitable for low supply voltage and pH-sensing arrays. These circuits offer nonlinear and linear responses to pH changes, with a focus on the linear version. CMOS post-processing steps are used to further improve the sensitivity in the sensing area. The linear pulse frequency modulator (LPFM) architecture exhibits the best outcome in long-term response against pH variations and a highly stable signal with up to 25% variation in the power supply range. This could be a very significant feature for implantable and other wireless applications. Two data acquisition techniques are employed to increase long-term stability: the standard ‘Static Method’ and a ‘Dynamic Method’ using a pulsed reference signal. The Dynamic Method outperforms conventional techniques, addressing the common issue of the rapid pH signal decay in the time domain measurements evaluated in this work.

description: The $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A=$ K, Rb, Cs) family of Kagome metals hosts unconventional charge density wave order whose nature is still an open puzzle. Accumulated evidences point to a time-reversal symmetry breaking orbital flux phase that carries loop currents. Such an order may support anomalous Hall effect. However, the polar Kerr effect measurements that probe the a.c. anomalous Hall conductivity seems to have yielded contradictory results. We first argue on symmetry grounds that some previously proposed orbital flux order, most notably the one with Star-of-David distortion, shall not give rise to anomalous Hall or polar Kerr effects. We further take the tri-hexagonal orbital flux phase as an exemplary Kagome flux order that does exhibit anomalous Hall response, and show that the Kerr rotation angle at two relevant experimental optical frequencies generally reaches microradians to sub-milliradians levels. A particularly sharp resonance enhancement is observed at around $\hbar ω=1$ eV, suggesting exceedingly large Kerr rotation at the corresponding probing frequencies not yet accessed by previous experiments. Our study can help to interpret the Kerr measurements on $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ and to eventually resolve the nature of their CDW order.

description: This research focuses on the origins and early development of the Empty Tomb Tradition, particularly in the Markan account. In Mark 16:1-8, we find a group of women followers of Jesus who go to his tomb to perform various rituals accompanying death. In ancient Greek, Roman and Jewish contexts, mourning was ritually expressed in a set of practices called “ritual lamentation”, where women had a prominent role. These practices entailed, among others, anointing the body and singing laments for the deceased. Ritual lamentation was performed for the dead and the grieving community, thus allowing a community to mend the gap of their loss. The manner of Jesus’ death —crucifixion— and his central role in the movement that formed around him resulted in his death being perceived as a traumatic event. This trauma was experienced both by the witnesses of this horrendous event and by the community of his followers, now deprived of their founding figure and, thus, facing the unravelling of their collective beliefs, practices and worldview, i.e. the disintegration of their shared, collective identity. This research approaches this scenario through the lens of Cultural Trauma Theory. The theory proposes that when a group experiences a critical blow or threat to their identity in the form of a horrendous event —or this is perceived to happen— a cultural trauma may arise to reknit the group’s identity. The rise of a cultural trauma is supported by the deployment of a “trauma process”, which provides a narrative about what happened, the identity of the person experiencing pain (death in this case), their relationship to the group, and, lastly, the identity of the perpetrators. Taking notice of the funerary context of Mark 16:1-8 and other related passages, this research imagines how ritual lamentation on account of Jesus’ death was a powerful symbolic platform that enabled a trauma process. This process would result in time in the rise of a cultural trauma attached to Jesus’ death, thus supplying the means for identity continuity and for assuming the traumatic death of Jesus as an identity marker for his followers.

description: Isomers produced by spontaneous fission of ${}^{252}$Cf have been measured with the VESPA setup, composed of LaBr$_3$(Ce) detectors for fast $γ$-ray spectroscopy and an ionization chamber for detecting fission fragments. Identification of the isomers was derived from fission fragment-$γ$-$γ$ coincidences. This paper presents the half-life of 34 isomeric states measured with this setup, from less than the nanosecond up to tens of microseconds. Two of these isomers are reported for the first time, in ${}^{108}$Tc and ${}^{147}$Ce. In addition to this half-life analysis, the isomers are used to develop and test a nuclear charge calibration of the ionization chamber.

description: Since the creation of the Web, recommender systems (RSs) have been an indispensable mechanism in information filtering. State-of-the-art RSs primarily depend on categorical features, which ecoded by embedding vectors, resulting in excessively large embedding tables. To prevent over-parameterized embedding tables from harming scalability, both academia and industry have seen increasing efforts in compressing RS embeddings. However, despite the prosperity of lightweight embedding-based RSs (LERSs), a wide diversity is seen in evaluation protocols, resulting in obstacles when relating LERS performance to real-world usability. Moreover, despite the common goal of lightweight embeddings, LERSs are evaluated with a single choice between the two main recommendation tasks -- collaborative filtering and content-based recommendation. This lack of discussions on cross-task transferability hinders the development of unified, more scalable solutions. Motivated by these issues, this study investigates various LERSs' performance, efficiency, and cross-task transferability via a thorough benchmarking process. Additionally, we propose an efficient embedding compression method using magnitude pruning, which is an easy-to-deploy yet highly competitive baseline that outperforms various complex LERSs. Our study reveals the distinct performance of LERSs across the two tasks, shedding light on their effectiveness and generalizability. To support edge-based recommendations, we tested all LERSs on a Raspberry Pi 4, where the efficiency bottleneck is exposed. Finally, we conclude this paper with critical summaries of LERS performance, model selection suggestions, and underexplored challenges around LERSs for future research.

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of caspase-8 in the development of choroidal neovascularization induced by age-related macular degeneration, with the aim of identifying a potential therapeutic target for neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Mouse models of laser photocoagulation-induced choroidal neovascularization and hypoxic human choroidal endothelial cells were utilized to examine the involvement of caspase-8 in choroidal neovascularization development. The toll-like receptor 4/TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule 1/caspase-8 pathway was explored in hypoxic human choroidal endothelial cells to elucidate its contribution to pathological angiogenesis. Various experimental techniques, including inhibition assays and immunoblotting analysis, were employed to assess the effects and mechanisms of caspase-8 activation. Inhibition of caspase-8 demonstrated attenuated choroidal neovascularization development in mice subjected to laser photocoagulation. Activation of the toll-like receptor 4/TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule 1/caspase-8 pathway was observed in hypoxic human choroidal endothelial cells. Upon activation by the toll-like receptor 4/TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule 1 axis, caspase-8 directly cleaved caspase-1, leading to the cleavage of interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 by caspase-1. Consequently, activation of interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 through the toll-like receptor 4/TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule 1/caspase-8/caspase-1 pathway promoted the proliferative, migratory, and tube-forming abilities of hypoxic human choroidal endothelial cells. The findings of this study indicate that caspase-8 plays a crucial role in promoting choroidal neovascularization by activating interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 through the toll-like receptor 4/TIR domain-containing adaptor molecule 1/caspase-8/caspase-1 pathway in choroidal endothelial cells. Therefore, targeting caspase-8 may hold promise as a therapeutic approach for neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

description: The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) has significantly improved the generation of fluent and convincing text, raising concerns about their potential misuse on social media platforms. We present a comprehensive methodology for creating nine Twitter datasets to examine the generative capabilities of four prominent LLMs: Llama 3, Mistral, Qwen2, and GPT4o. These datasets encompass four censored and five uncensored model configurations, including 7B and 8B parameter base-instruction models of the three open-source LLMs. Additionally, we perform a data quality analysis to assess the characteristics of textual outputs from human, "censored," and "uncensored" models, employing semantic meaning, lexical richness, structural patterns, content characteristics, and detector performance metrics to identify differences and similarities. Our evaluation demonstrates that "uncensored" models significantly undermine the effectiveness of automated detection methods. This study addresses a critical gap by exploring smaller open-source models and the ramifications of "uncensoring," providing valuable insights into how domain adaptation and content moderation strategies influence both the detectability and structural characteristics of machine-generated text.

Probing the cosmic web in Ly$α$ emission over large scales: an Intensity Mapping forecast for DECaLS/BASS and DESI

description: Being the most prominent HI line, Ly$α$ permeates the cosmic web in emission. Despite its potential as a cosmological probe, its detection on large scales remains elusive. We present a new methodology to perform Ly$α$ intensity mapping with broad-band optical images, by cross-correlating them with Ly$α$ forest data using a custom one-parameter estimator. We also develop an analytical large-scale Ly$α$ emission model with two parameters (average luminosity $\langle L_{\rm Lyα} \rangle$ and bias $b_{\rm e}$) that respects observational constraints from QSO luminosity functions. We compute a forecast for DECaLS/BASS $g$-band images cross-correlated with DESI Ly$α$ forest data, setting guidelines for reducing images into Ly$α$ intensity maps. Given the transversal scales of our cross-correlation (26.4 arcmin, $\sim$33 cMpc/h), our study effectively integrates Ly$α$ emission over all the cosmic volume inside the DESI footprint at $2.2 < z < 3.4$ (the $g$-band Ly$α$ redshift range). Over the parameter space ($\langle L_{\rm Lyα} \rangle$, $b_{\rm e}$) sampled by our forecast, we find a 3$σ$ of large-scale structure in Ly$α$ likely, with a probability of detection of 23.95\% for DESI-DECaLS/BASS, and 54.93\% for a hypothetical DESI phase II with twice as much Ly$α$ QSOs. Without a detection, we derive upper bounds on $\langle L_{\rm Lyα} \rangle$ competitive with optimistic literature estimates ($2.3 \pm 1 \cdot 10^{\rm 41}$ erg/s/cMpc$^3$ for DESI, and $\sim$35\% lower for its hypothetical phase II). Extrapolation to the DESI-Rubin overlap shows that a detection of large-scale structure with Ly$α$ intensity mapping using next-generation imaging surveys is certain. [abridged]

description: to assess the changes in the macular structure in children with history of prematurity and to find the relationship between retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) treatment and macular ultrastructural changes found in optical coherence tomography angiography study. a search for identifying relevant studies published in English using PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science databases from the date of inception to 21 October 2022 was conducted. Studies were included if their subjects were >5 years and used Optovue device for imaging. Twelve studies were included for final analysis. After extracting data, foveal avascular zone (FAZ), vessel density (VD) of superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP) in the foveal and parafoveal area, central foveal thickness (CFT), and visual acuity (VA) were compared between the study groups. in individual who were born full term the FAZ was significantly larger. The SCP and DCP VD was significantly higher in children with history of ROP treatment. Superficial parafoveal VD was significantly lower in term children than both treated groups. The CFT was significantly higher in children with history of ROP (treated and untreated) than the terms. VA was lower in laser and IVI treated children than terms and it was related to the changes in CFT, foveal superficial and deep VD and FAZ area. Patients with a history of ROP treatment have a significantly greater CFT, higher VD of foveal SCP and DCP, and lower VA than the term-born children. Furthermore, the FAZ is negatively associated with VA and CFT.
Asymptotics of quantized barycenters of lattice polytopes with applications to algebraic geometry

description: This article addresses a combinatorial problem with applications to algebraic geometry. To a convex lattice polytope $P$ and each of its integer dilations $kP$ one may associate the barycenter of its lattice points. This sequence of $k$-quantized barycenters converge to the (classical) barycenter of the polytope considered as a convex body. A basic question arises: is there a complete asymptotic expansion for this sequence? If so, what are its terms? This article initiates the study of this question. First, we establish the existence of such an expansion as well as determine the first two terms. Second, for Delzant lattice polytopes we use toric algebra to determine all terms using mixed volumes of virtual rooftop polytopes, or alternatively in terms of higher Donaldson--Futaki invariants. Third, for reflexive polytopes we show the quantized barycenters are colinear to first order, and actually colinear in the case of polygons. The proofs use Ehrhart theory, convexity arguments, and toric algebra. As applications we derive the complete asymptotic expansion of the Fujita--Odaka stability thresholds $δ_k$ on arbitrary polarizations on (possibly singular) toric varieties. In fact, we show they are rational functions of $k$ for sufficiently large $k$. This gives the first general result on Tian's stabilization problem for $δ_k$-invariants for (possibly singular) toric Fanos: $δ_k$ stabilize in $k$ if and only if they are all equal to $1$, and when smooth if and only if asymptotically Chow semistable. We also relate the asymptotic expansions to higher Donaldson--Futaki invariants of test configurations motivated by Ehrhart theory, and unify in passing previous results of Donaldson, Ono, Futaki, and Rubinstein--Tian--Zhang.

description: We experimentally demonstrate magnon-polaritons with ultrastrong coupling and directional nonreciprocity in a metamolecule lacking time-reversal and space-inversion symmetries at room temperature. These experimental results are reproduced well via numerical simulations and theoretical consideration. Ultrastrong coupling is due to a direct interaction of magnons in the magnetic meta-atom with microwave photons confined in the chiral meta-atom as a resonator. Our results reveal a crucial step in identifying deepstrongly-coupled and optically-moving magnon-polaritons for hybrid quantum systems, synthetic gauge fields, and quasi-particle ``chemistry'' using metamaterials.
