Natural and synthetic polymer-based hybrid materials for tissue regeneration
Creators: name: Connell, Louise Stephanie
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The world’s population is aging and cases of debilitating degenerative diseases are increasing. Bone is the second most transplanted tissue after blood but natural bone grafts are in short supply. Bioglass, which is a particular composition of bioactive glass, stimulates more bone repair than other synthetic bone grafts. However, it is brittle so cannot be used in cyclically loaded sites. A promising solution is the use of hybrid materials that can potentially combine the toughness of polymers with the stiffness and bioactivity of the glass through interpenetrating inorganic-organic networks. Hybrids have the unique feature of tuneable mechanical properties and degradation rates. In this thesis, two very different polymers were investigated as the organic component of hybrids; chitosan and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-(3-trimethoxysilane)propyl methacrylate). The natural polymer chitosan was incorporated into the silica sol-gel process to produce hybrids and scaffolds were fabricated using freeze drying and foaming techniques. The chemical, morphological, mechanical and degradation properties of the scaffolds were studied. In order to covalently bond the organic and inorganic components, the chitosan was functionalised with an alkoxysilane crosslinker, 3-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane. Using NMR and FTIR, the functionalisation reaction and side-reactions were characterised, discovering that the reaction was only 20% efficient at all pH values. To avoid the inefficient functionalisation reactions and concerns over the reproducibility of natural polymers, the synthetic co-polymer poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-(3-trimethoxysilane)propyl methacrylate) was synthesised by controlled polymerisation techniques (ATRP and ARGET ATRP) and typical free radical polymerisation (FRP). ATRP gave good control over molecular weight distributions, but the copper catalyst had serious implications on the chemical and architectural structure of the polymers. An NMR kinetics study was used to identify alternative polymerisation routes that could avoid the problems associated with the copper catalyst. The polymers were introduced into the sol-gel process to produce entirely synthetic hybrids with non-brittle (tough) behaviour and dissolution rates controlled by the polymer composition. The hybrids also exhibited hydroxyapatite precipitation in simulated body fluid, indicative of potential bioactivity in vivo. Hence, the aim of producing non-brittle, bioactive materials with controllable degradation rates was achieved.

description: The aim of this paper is to provide a more precise description of the paradigm of corpuscular slow-roll inflation, which was previously introduced by Casadio et al. in [1]. Specifically, we start by expanding the Starobinsky theory on a curved background and then infer the number and nature of the propagating degrees of freedom, both in the true inflationary phase and in a quasi-de Sitter approximation. We correctly find that the particle spectrum contains a transverse trace-free mode and a scalar one. The scalar mode displays a tachyonic nature during the slow-roll phase, due to the instability of the system, whereas it acquires the appropriate oscillatory behavior as the background approaches a critical value of the curvature. These results confirm the fact that the Einstein-Hilbert term acts as a perturbation to the quadratic one, and is responsible for driving the early universe out of the inflationary phase, thus realising the inflaton field in terms of pure (corpuscular) gravity.

Graphlet Correlations for Network Comparison and Modelling: World Trade Network Example
Creators: name: Yaveroglu, Omer Nebil
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: We propose methods on two fundamental graph theoretic problems: (1) network comparison, and (2) network modelling. Our methods are applied to five real-world network types, with an emphasis on world trade networks (WTNs), which we choose due to the world's current economic crisis. Finding topological similarities of complex networks is computationally intractable due to NP-Completeness of the subgraph isomorphism problem. Hence, simple heuristics have been used for this purpose. The most sophisticated heuristics are based on graph spectra and small subnetworks including graphlets. Among these, graphlets are preferred since spectra do not provide a direct real-world interpretation of network structure. However, current graphlet-based techniques can be improved. We improve graphlet-based heuristics by defining a new network topology descriptor, Graphlet Correlation Matrix (GCM), which eliminates all redundancies and quantifies the dependencies in graphlet properties. Then, we introduce a new network distance measure, Graphlet Correlation Distance (GCD), that compares GCMs of two networks. We show that GCD has the best network classification performance, is highly noise-tolerant, and is computationally efficient. Using this methodology, we highlight a three-layer organization in the WTNs: core, broker, and periphery. Furthermore, we uncover the link between the dynamic changes in oil price and trade network topology. Network models should shed light on the rules governing the formation of real networks. Using GCD, we identify models that fit five real-world network types. However, none of these standard network models fit WTNs. Hence, we introduce two new network models: one that mimics the Gravity Model of Trade, and the other that mimics brokerage / peripheral positioning of a country in WTN. Also, we show that economic wealth indicators of a country are predictive of its future brokerage position. Finally, we use exponential-family random graph modelling approach to build a generic framework that enables modelling based on any graphlet property.

Real-Time Optimal Power Flow under Wind Energy Penetration-Part I: Approach

Year: 2018

description: Real-time optimal power flow (RT-OPF) under wind energy penetration is highly desired but extremely difficult to realize. This is basically due to the conflict between the fast changes in wind power generation and the slow response from the optimization computation. This paper (Part I) presents a prediction-updating approach to address this challenge. We consider essential scenarios around forecasted data of wind power that would probably happen during the computation time required for solving a large-scale complex optimal power flow problem. Parallel computing is used to solve the individual OPF problems corresponding to these scenarios. This provides for the forecasted time horizon probable reference operations in the form of a lookup-table. One of these operations will be selected based on the actual wind power and realized to the grid for the current time interval, thus leading to a RT-OPF framework. The proposed approach is implemented in Part II of this paper using a 41-bus medium-voltage distribution network as a case study.
Lanthanide replacement in organic synthesis: calcium-mediated Luche-type reduction of α,β-functionalised ketones
Creators: name: Forkel, Nina
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: Complexes of alkaline earth metals (Ca, Sr, and Ba) exhibit lanthanide-like reactivity and coordination behaviour, thus it is not surprising that such alkaline earth metals are also often compared to early f-block lanthanides. Attention has been focused on calcium-catalysed reactions as calcium, the fifth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, is not only a cheaper alternative to lanthanide salts but is also less toxic, due to its high biocompatibility. As a result, the use of calcium complexes to catalyse a broad range of reactions in organic synthesis has increased tremendously over the past two decades. One such reaction where catalyst modification is suitable is the Luche reduction. The Luche reduction is one of the standard protocols for the selective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones to form allylic alcohols; however, the use of cerium chloride as a stoichiometric additive is not desirable for industrial-scale reactions. Successful reaction conditions for the calcium-mediated selective 1,2-reduction of challenging enones have been developed. Even the challenging substrate 2-cyclopentenone was reduced to its corresponding allylic alcohol in high 92:8 selectivity (allylic alcohol.:saturated alcohol). The developed conditions were employed to a large variety of enone substrates. Our chemistry showed high selectivity, in some cases the selectivity was even better than the selectivity obtained under classic Luche conditions. Preliminary studies have also shown that the stereoselective reduction of α,β-epoxy and α,β-aziridinyl ketones to the corresponding alcohols in the presence of calcium triflate resulted in excellent diastereoselectivity.

Notes.
One individual was observed by an island resident in a coastal forested area on the edge of human-disturbed forest and national park forest areas. Technically the detection was on the national park forest edge and well within our transect in the national park. This species is elusive and has not been detected via camera trap or any of the other methods of detection.

description: In this paper (Part II) we implement the prediction-updating approach developed in Part I to address fast changes in wind power generation when solving a complex real-time optimal power flow (RT-OPF) problem. The approach considers essential scenarios around forecasted wind power values in a moving prediction horizon (120 seconds). The individual optimal power flow problems corresponding to these scenarios are solved in parallel using a multi-processor server. Then the operation strategy is updated in a short sampling time (every 20 seconds) considering real wind power values. The RT-OPF problem is formulated considering both technical and economic aspects simultaneously. The RT-OPF is implemented on a 41-bus medium-voltage distribution network with two wind stations. The results show the benefits of the proposed approach and highlight further challenges of RT-OPF.

Prediction of Days and Pattern of the Babylonian Lunar Six

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: 520 Astronomie

description: One of the current questions in Babylonian astronomy is how the Babylonians were able to find and agree on the length of lunar months. Another question is how the days of the four full-moon observations and the last visibility of the old moon were predicted. This paper shall show how the days of each of the Lunar Six, i.e., the days of each of the six special lunar phases observed by the Babylonians, can be found easily. The days of the Lunar Six are interdependent and rather difficult to determine by means of modern astronomical considerations. But a detail in the Babylonian Goal-Year method for predicting the values of the Lunar Six gives the clue for finding the days: is the normal Goal-Year method utilized, all days will remain the same as they were one Saros earlier – if the Goal-Year method needs corrections, then the day of the corresponding phenomena will be displaced by one day. This means that if one knows the values and days of all Lunar Six for one month (plus some values found six months earlier), then one can find the values and days for all the Lunar Six to come one Saros later by means of the Goal-Year method; particularly the day of the NAN. This day (30 or 31), at which the first of the Lunar Six occurs, indicates the length of the previous month. Therefore, evidently, this reconstructed method also gives easy means for finding – and agreeing on – the lengths of months to come.
Systematic analysis in Neisseria meningitidis of proteins that fine-­tune functions mediated by type IV pili
Creators: name: Brown, Daniel Robert
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: Type IV pili (Tfp) are widespread virulence factors whose multifunctional ability sets them apart from other pili. Tfp mediate adhesion as well as aggregation, competence for DNA transformation and twitching motility (a non-­flagellar form of locomotion) in many bacterial pathogens. The molecular mechanisms of these functions and the biogenesis of these pili are not yet fully understood. To better understand Tfp biology, our group started a systematic characterization of all of the proteins involved in Tfp biology in a well-­defined genetic background, Neisseria meningitidis strain 8013. Screening of a large library of mutants in this strain followed by an in-­depth mining of the genome resulted in the discovery of 23 genes that may be involved in Tfp biology. Seven of these genes encode proteins deemed “accessory” for Tfp biogenesis as the corresponding mutants are piliated. Since previous analysis of one these genes (pilX) led to the finding that it modulates one Tfp-­linked function (aggregation), the first aim of my project was to phenotypically characterize mutants in the remaining genes along with double mutants in which filament retraction is abolished by a concurrent mutation in the pilT gene, and strains overexpressing the corresponding proteins with regards to levels of piliation, adhesion, aggregation and DNA competence. This was achieved using a battery of quantitative and qualitative methods well-­established in our research group. Results from this study showed that each of the seven proteins plays a role in fine-­tuning of Tfp-­linked function(s). This completed our systematic study of mutants in N. meningitidis Tfp biology, and gave us a complete picture of the roles of these proteins in Tfp function. This provides us with a platform for further in-­depth study of these proteins. In parallel, we attempted to further characterize one of these proteins, PilZ, by determining its localization and protein structure, however, we have been unsuccessful in both efforts so far. Finally we attempted to improve upon the current pilus purification method using a His-­tagged version of the major pilus subunit PilE to purify fibres by affinity chromatography. This could be a very useful tool for future studies.

description: Background: Cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (MMECs) is one of the key
factors in the process of diabetic cardiomyopathy, a common chronic complication
of diabetes. Fibrinogen‐like protein 2 (FGL2) is linked to apoptosis, angiogenesis,
and inflammatory response, all of which also occur in diabetes. Thus, we investigate
the role of FGL 2 and other genes in the pathology of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Methods: In the present study, we used high‐throughput microarray to profile gene
expression in rat myocardial MMECs with or without silencing the fgl2 gene and in
different glucose environments. We use volcanic maps to isolate genes with significantly
different expression levels between conditions, using the standard statistical
criteria of fold changes ≥1.5 and P‐values ≤0.05. From this list, we identified genes
with the most signicant changes in RNA levels and confirmed their protein‐level
changes with Western blot. Furthermore, bioinformatic analysis predicts possible
pathophysiology and clinical relevance of these proteins in diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Results: We identified 17 upregulated and 15 downregulated genes caused by
silencing fgl2 gene. Most of them are involved in metabolism, ion transport, cell membrane
surface recognition signal modification, inflammatory response, and immune
response. Using Western blot, we were able to confirm protein‐level expression
changes of three genes. Specifically, in both normal and high glucose conditions,
silencing fgl2 significantly decreased the expression levels of CCL3 and PLAGL1 while
increasing the expression level of CTSC. Significantly, bioinformatic analyses show
that CCL3 is related to type 1 diabetes, PLAGL1 to cardiomyocytes, and CTSC to
albuminuria in type 2 diabetes.
Conclusions: Our study provides clues for further studies on the mechanism of diabetic
cardiomyopathy as well as function of FGL2 in this process, potentially offering
new therapeutic strategies for treating diabetic cardiomyopathy.

description: We model the effects of repeated supernova explosions from starbursts in dwarf galaxies on the interstellar medium of these galaxies, taking into account the gravitational potential of their dominant dark matter haloes. We explore supernova rates from one every 30,000 yr to one every 3 million yr, equivalent to steady mechanical luminosities of L=0.1-10 x 10^38 ergs/s, occurring in dwarf galaxies with gas masses M_g=10^6 - 10^9 solar masses. We address in detail, both analytically and numerically, the following three questions: 1. When do the supernova ejecta blow out of the disk of the galaxy? 2. When blowout occurs, what fraction of the interstellar gas is blown away, escaping the potential of the galactic halo? 3. What happens to the metals ejected from the massive stars of the starburst? Are they retained or blown away? We give quantitative results for when blowout will or will not occur in galaxies with 10^6 \leq M_g \leq 10^9 solar masses. Surprisingly, we find that the mass ejection efficiency is very low for galaxies with mass M_g \geq 10^7 solar masses. Only galaxies with M_g \leq 10^6 solar masses have their interstellar gas blown away, and then virtually independently of L. On the other hand, metals from the supernova ejecta are accelerated to velocities larger than the escape speed from the galaxy far more easily than the gas. We find that for L_38=1, only about 30% of the metals are retained by a 10^9 solar mass galaxy, and virtually none by smaller galaxies. We discuss the implications of our results for the evolution, metallicity and observational properties of dwarf galaxies.

The S-matrix of the Pohlmeyer-reduced AdS5 x S5 superstring
Creators: name: Hoare, Benjamin David
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The Pohlmeyer reduction of the AdS5 x S5 superstring is a fermionic generalization of the relationship between the O(3) sigma model and the sine-Gordon model. In the reduction procedure the Virasoro constraints are solved and the resulting reduced theory is Lorentz-invariant, integrable and classically equivalent to the superstring sigma model. Its action is that of a gauged WZW model plus an integrable potential coupled to fermions. Furthermore, the theory is UV-finite and conjectured to be related to the superstring at a quantum level. This thesis begins with a review of the Pohlmeyer reduction, concentrating on its rôle in string theory. The main focus of the thesis is an investigation into the S-matrix of the Pohlmeyer-reduced AdS5 x S5 superstring. Expanding around the trivial vacuum, a local quartic action is constructed for the 8 + 8 (bosonic and fermionic) massive asymptotic degrees of freedom. The resulting perturbative S-matrix has the same tensorial structure and group factorization property as the light-cone gauge-fixed superstring S-matrix. However, it does not satisfy the Yang-Baxter equation. As a possible resolution it is proposed to consider a particular limit of the quantum-deformed (psu(2|2)xR3)-invariant R-matrix of Beisert and Koroteev. The exact form of the corresponding S-matrix is constructed and possible relations to the perturbative computation are explored. The on-shell symmetry of the quantum-deformed S-matrix may be interpreted as a quantum-deformed N = 8 two-dimensional supersymmetry. After describing the representation theory of Uq(psu(2|2)xR2) and the pole structure of the deformed S-matrix the bootstrap programme is used to construct the S-matrix elements for the bound states. The thesis concludes with a discussion of the current status of the Pohlmeyer reduction and open questions.

description: The modification of the magnetization dissipation or Gilbert damping caused by an inhomogeneous magnetic structure and expressed in terms of a wave vector dependent tensor $\underlineα(\vec{q})$ is investigated by means of linear response theory. A corresponding expression for $\underlineα(\vec{q})$ in terms of the electronic Green function has been developed giving in particular the leading contributions to the Gilbert damping linear and quadratic in $q$. Numerical results for realistic systems are presented that have been obtained by implementing the scheme within the framework of the fully relativistic KKR (Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker) band structure method. Using the multilayered system (Cu/Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$/Pt)$_n$ as an example for systems without inversion symmetry we demonstrate the occurrence of non-vanishing linear contributions. For the alloy system bcc Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$ having inversion symmetry, on the other hand, only the quadratic contribution is non-zero. As it is shown, this quadratic contribution does not vanish even if the spin-orbit coupling is suppressed, i.e.\ it is a direct consequence of the non-collinear spin configuration.

description: We numerically construct static localized black holes in ten spacetime dimensions with one compact periodic dimension. In particular, we investigate the critical regime in which the poles of the localized black hole are about to merge. When approaching the critical region, the behavior of physical quantities is described by a single real valued exponent giving rise to a logarithmic scaling of the thermodynamic quantities, in agreement with the theoretical prediction derived from the double-cone metric. As a peculiarity, the localized black hole solution in ten dimensions can be related to the spatially deconfined phase of two dimensional N=(8,8) super Yang-Mills theory (SYM) on a spatial circle. We use the localized black hole solutions to determine the SYM phase diagram. In particular, we compute the location of the first order phase confinement/deconfinement transition and the related latent heat to unprecedented accuracy.

Geodesic shooting for anatomical curve registration on the plane
Creators: name: Clark, Allan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: The aim of the work presented in this thesis is to develop a method of characterising the shape of curves in the plane that is independent of the parameterisation of the curve. It is important to remove the effect of a specific parameterisation of a curve because it is possible for two curves to have the same shape while having different parameterisations. The characterisation is accomplished by matching curves via deformations, and using the deformations to characterise the difference between them. We specifically aim for a method that is able to characterise the kind of complex curves found in cross sections of the human nasal cavity. In order to match one curve to another, we derive the equations of motion for a geodesic flow, and seeking the flow that deforms an embedded reference curve into the target curve we wish to characterise. The geodesic flow is itself characterised by a conjugate momentum on, and normal to, the reference curve, giving a one dimensional descriptive signal of the deformation. This descriptive signal contains all of the information required to generate the target curve from the reference curve. We therefore say that this descriptive signal characterises the target curve with respect to the reference curve. The descriptive signal is found using a shooting approach, requiring a functional to measure how closely overlaid are two curves. Formulating the problem as an optimisation problem, we first present a parameterisation-independent functional based on geometric currents, but show that we encounter problems in this matching functional due to local minima. We then present a second approach in which we formulate the problem as a landmark matching problem. Since we seek a characterisation that is independent of the choice of landmarks, and the landmark matching functional is parameterisation dependent, we minimise the functional over all reparameterisations of the reference curve. These two approaches solve equivalent problems. We present the results of the reparameterisation-based matching, and show that they overcome the problems observed in the currents-based method. In particular we demonstrate that the method is able to match complex nasal geometries, and show how the descriptive signal can be used to interpolate between two dimensional slices of three dimensional objects to reconstruct three dimensional surfaces representing the objects. Though here we implement the geodesic flow in two dimensions, we note that the flow could be extended to three dimensional space. Since the reparameterisation based matching functional is trivial to implement in three dimensions, this would allow for the characterisation of both curves and surfaces in three dimensional space.

description: Todo establecimiento educacional en Chile debe contar con un Proyecto Educativo Institucional (PEI). El Ministerio de Educación lo define como un documento de alto valor legal, que plasma identidad, ideales, directrices y concepciones de Educación. La legislación chilena determina que la Educación debe ser inclusiva, integral y no discriminatoria. Frente a estas directrices y los requerimientos de las comunidades educativas, se hace necesario reflexionar sobre cómo se entiende el proceso educativo y repensar estas concepciones. Por tanto, a través de un análisis de caso, tomando como técnica de recolección de datos el análisis documental y siguiendo las directrices de un análisis instrumental, se toman decisiones para la generación de una propuesta de modificación de un PEI, a partir de las directrices de un enfoque radical e inclusivo. Como resultado se visualizan insuficiencias entre los elementos constituyentes del documento, su abordaje legal y los requerimientos nacionales. A modo de discusión, se presenta una propuesta a la mejora desde un enfoque radical e inclusivo, para la adecuación de la propuesta a las necesidades contextuales. Se concluye en la necesidad de la autorreflexión activa y del cambio en la forma de concebir la Educación que deben plasmarse en los PEI.

Notes.
Thirty-two individuals (Table 2) of this globally endangered species were observed exclusively on night surveys in eight of the 14 human-disturbed forest areas and nine of the ten national park forested areas. On one occasion this species was observed in a HDF patch very near a HS area. This species was seen throughout the island.

description: We report the discovery of the brightest X-ray source hosted by a faint (M_B=-16) dwarf galaxy in the immediate vicinity of the ultraluminous IRAS merging galaxy Mrk 273. The dwarf galaxy, 1.3 arcmin away from Mrk 273, is at the tip of a faint northeast plume of Mrk 273. Its spectrum exhibits strong [OIII], Halpha, [NII] emission lines, which establish the redshift of the dwarf galaxy, $z=0.0376$, the same as that of Mrk 273. The emission line ratios are typical of Seyfert galaxies. The X-ray emission is consistent with a point-like source coincident with the center of the dwarf galaxy. The intrinsic X-ray luminosity, 6.3x10^{41} ergs, in the 0.1--2.4 keV energy range, is about seven times larger than the B band luminosity. The X-ray spectrum of the source can be fit with a power-law. All the evidence is consistent with the source being a Seyfert galaxy. It is mysterious why out of $\sim 10$ faint objects in the same field only one is detected by ROSAT and its ratio of soft X-ray to optical luminosity is as high as those for BL Lac objects and few active galactic nuclei (AGNs). If there is a population of such dwarf AGNs hidden as companions of major merger galaxies (such as Mrk 273), they may contribute to the luminosity function of AGNs and the cosmic X-ray background at the faint end.

Development of Luminescent Labels for use in Miniaturised Diagnostic Devices
Creators: name: Edwards, Angharad Naomi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: As scientific and technological advances impact on medical care, there has been a specific demand for low-cost, miniaturised diagnostic devices for use in GP surgeries and in the home. These so-called point-of-care (POC) technologies have been hailed as important for the future of medical treatment, not only in the developed world but also in the developing world where a highly portable format of diagnostic technology could revolutionise treatment methods. Removing the need for patient samples to be sent away for laboratory analysis speeds up the diagnosis procedure and allows for more immediate treatment, leading to greatly improved recovery rates for time-critical diseases. Many current POC devices utilise luminescence-based bioassays owing to their high sensitivity and quantitative capabilities and there is an urgent demand for new high performance luminescent labels suitable for use in these integrated bioassay technologies. Advances in organic light emitting materials along with microfluidic technologies have added to the promise of developing low-cost POC devices. This work has focussed on two promising long-lived, highly luminescent compounds: a ruthenium(II) complex and an inorganic silicate. Surface modification studies and size analysis of the inorganic silicate particles were carried out and the resulting photophysical properties assessed. Ruthenium dye-doped polymer beads were prepared using a facile precipitation method and a number of different polymer encapsulants tested. The effect of encapsulation on the photophysical properties of the dye was investigated and time-gated detection studies performed on the optimal beads. Luminescence lifetime measurements and SEM imaging were also used to characterise the particles. This work represents the first known use of polystyrene/ bisphenol A diglycidyl ether as a host matrix for luminophores to form highly photostable beads readily excited by low cost LEDs.

description: Spinning black holes in dynamical Einstein-Chern-Simons gravity are constructed by directly solving the field equations, without resorting to any perturbative expansion. This model is obtained by adding to the Einstein-Hilbert action a particular higher-curvature correction: the Pontryagin density, linearly coupled to a scalar field. The spinning black holes are stationary, axi-symmetric, asymptotically flat generalisations of the Kerr solution of Einstein's gravity, but they possess a non-trivial (odd-parity) scalar field. They are regular on and outside the horizon and satisfy a generalized Smarr relation. We discuss the deviations from Kerr at the level of the spin and mass distribution, the horizon angular velocity, the ergo-region and some basic properties of geodesic motion. For sufficiently small values of the Chern-Simons coupling our results match those previously obtained using a perturbative approach.

N=1 Supersymmetric Renormalization Group Flows from IIB Supergravity

description: We consider N=1 supersymmetric renormalization group flows of N=4 Yang-Mills theory from the perspective of ten-dimensional IIB supergravity. We explicitly construct the complete ten-dimensional lift of the flow in which exactly one chiral superfield becomes massive (the LS flow). We also examine the ten-dimensional metric and dilaton configurations for the ``super-QCD'' flow (the GPPZ flow) in which all chiral superfields become massive. We show that the latter flow generically gives rise to a dielectric 7-brane in the infra-red, but the solution contains a singularity that may be interpreted as a ``duality averaged'' ring distribution of 5-branes wrapped on S^2. At special values of the parameters the singularity simplifies to a pair of S-dual branes with (p,q) charge (1,\pm 1).
