description: We compare the response of five different models of two interacting electrons in a quantum dot to an external short lived radial excitation that is strong enough to excite the system well beyond the linear response regime. The models considered describe the Coulomb interaction between the electrons in different ways ranging from mean-field approaches to configuration interaction (CI) models, where the two-electron Hamiltonian is diagonalized in a large truncated Fock space. The radially symmetric excitation is selected in order to severely put to test the different approaches to describe the interaction and correlations of an electron system in a nonequilibrium state. As can be expected for the case of only two electrons none of the mean-field models can in full details reproduce the results obtained by the CI model. Nonetheless, some linear and nonlinear characteristics are reproduced reasonably well. All the models show activation of an increasing number of collective modes as the strength of the excitation is increased. By varying slightly the confinement potential of the dot we observe how sensitive the properties of the excitation spectrum are to the Coulomb interaction and its correlation effects. In order to approach closer the question of nonlinearity we solve one of the mean-field models directly in a nonlinear fashion without resorting to iterations.

description: As deeper galaxy catalogues are soon to come, it becomes even more importantto measure large-scale fluctuations in the catalogues with robust statistics that cover all moments of the galaxy distribution.In this paper we reinforce a direct analysis of galaxy data by employing the Germ-Grain method to calculate thefamily of Minkowski Functionals. We introduce a new code, suitable for the analysis of large data sets without smoothingand without the construction of excursion sets. We provide new tools to measure correlation properties, putting emphasis onexplicitly isolating non-Gaussian correlations with the help of integral-geometric relations. As a first application we present the analysis of large-scale fluctuations in the luminous red galaxy sample of Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 7 data. We findsignificant deviations from the $Λ$ cold dark matter mock catalogues on samples as large as $500h^{-1}$Mpc (more than $3σ$)and slight deviations of around $2σ$ on $700h^{-1}$Mpc, and we investigate possible sources of these deviations.

description: Objective: The study aimed to analyze the documented role of a librarian in published systematic reviews and meta-analyses whose registered protocols mentioned librarian involvement. The intention was to identify how, or if, librarians’ involvement was formally documented, how their contributions were described, and if there were any potential connections between this documentation and basic metrics of search reproducibility and quality. Methods: Reviews whose PROSPERO protocols were registered in 2017 and 2018 and that also specifically mentioned a librarian were analyzed for documentation of the librarian’s involvement. Language describing the librarian and their involvement was gathered and coded, and additional information about the review, including search strategy details, was also collected. Results: A total of 209 reviews were found and analyzed. Of these, 28% had a librarian co-author, 41% named a librarian in the acknowledgements section, and 78% mentioned the contribution of a librarian within the body of the review. However, mentions of a librarian within the review were often generic (“a librarian”) and in 31% of all reviews analyzed no librarian was specified by name. In 9% of the reviews, there was no reference to a librarian found at all. Conclusions: Even among this set of reviews, where librarian involvement was specified at the protocol level, librarians’ contributions were often described with minimal, or even no, language in the final published review. Much room for improvement appears to remain in terms of how librarians’ work is documented.

description: Several recent misconceptions about the measure problem in inflation and the nature of inflationary attractors are addressed. We show that within the Hamiltonian system of flat Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker cosmology coupled to a massive scalar field, the focussing of the Liouville measure on attractor solutions is brought about by a spread in a gauge degree of freedom - the spatial volume. Using this we show how the Liouville measure formulated on a surface of constant Hubble rate induces a probability distribution function on surfaces of other Hubble rates, and the attractor behaviour is seen through the focussing of this function on a narrow range of physical observables. One can conclude then that standard techniques from Hamiltonian dynamics suffice to provide a satisfactory description of attractor solutions and the measure problem.

description: The Kuramoto model of coupled phase oscillators on small-world (SW) graphs is analyzed in this work. When the number of oscillators in the network goes to infinity, the model acquires a family of steady state solutions of degree q, called q-twisted states. We show that this class of solutions plays an important role in the formation of spatial patterns in the Kuramoto model on SW graphs. In particular, the analysis of q-twisted elucidates the role of long-range random connections in shaping the attractors in this model. We develop two complementary approaches for studying q-twisted states in the coupled oscillator model on SW graphs: the linear stability analysis and the numerical continuation. The former approach shows that long-range random connections in the SW graphs promote synchronization and yields the estimate of the synchronization rate as a function of the SW randomization parameter. The continuation shows that the increase of the long-range connections results in patterns consisting of one or several plateaus separated by sharp interfaces. These results elucidate the pattern formation mechanisms in nonlocally coupled dynamical systems on random graphs.

description: The brain is the most complex of biological systems and our knowledge on the developmental mechanisms underlying its formation and organization have been based on studies in rodents. Little is know about the human brain development. To shed light on the telencephalic developmental program in humans we investigated the transcriptional profile that distinguish the developing striatum from the cortex and we define the molecular set that identify the different populations present in the differentiating striatum from 2 to 20 gestational weeks. This thesis represent the first description of the spatio-temporal expression profile that drive the differentiation of striatal precursors towards a medium spiny neurons fate and molecularly define the striatal compartments. New striatal determinants were identified and unexpected differences from mouse striatal development were discovered. Finally we compared the transcriptional profiles of the developing striatum and cortex with striatal and cortical primary neurons differentiated in vitro. We found an enrichment of function-related transcripts in human primary neurons that were confirmed by electrophysiological analysis revealing the presence of (i) Na+, K+ and Ca2+ currents, (ii) GABA, glutamate and dopamine receptors response and (iii) spontaneous synaptic activity.

description: Diabetic neuropathy one of important complications of diabetes, is associated with neuropathic pain in about 50% of diabetic subjects. Clinical management of neuropathic pain is complex and so far unsatisfactory. To this aim in rats rendered diabetic by streptozotocin injection we have analyzed the effects of the testosterone metabolites, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and 5?- androstane-3?,17?-diol (3?-diol), on nociceptive and allodynia thresholds. Moreover, molecular and functional parameters in the spinal cord related with pain modulation, such as the levels of glutamate, the expression and phosphorylation of synaptic proteins, the expression of substance P, neuroinflammatory markers and translocator protein, as well as the number of GFAP immunoreactive astrocytes have been analyzed. Finally, the levels of DHT and 3?-diol have been evaluated in spinal cord of steroid treated and untreated animals. Diabetes resulted in a significant decrease in DHT levels in the spinal cord that was reverted by DHT or 3?-diol treatments. In addition, 3?-diol treatment resulted in a significant increase in 3?-diol in the spinal cord over control values. Both steroids show analgesic properties on diabetic neuropathic pain. Interestingly, they exert their effects affecting different pain parameters and possibly by different mechanisms of action. Indeed, DHT treatment counteract the effect of diabetes on mechanical nociceptive threshold, pre- and post-synaptic components, glutamate release, astrocyte immunoreactivity and expression of interleukin-1?, while 3?-diol treatment was effective on tactile allodynia threshold, glutamate release, astrocyte immunoreactivity and the expression of substance P, toll-like receptor 4, tumor necrosis factor-?, transforming growth factor ?-1, interleukin-1? and translocator protein. Moreover a DRG primary cell colture experiment was performed in order to demonstrate the 3?-diol specific effect GABA-A-mediated on substance P expression. Altogether these results suggest that testosterone metabolites are potential agents for the treatment of diabetic neuropathic pain.

description: Lo scopo di questo lavoro � la generalizzazione, nel contesto degli 1-motivi, degli accoppiamenti di altezza costruiti da B. Mazur e J. Tate sulle variet� abeliane. Seguendo il loro approccio, consideriamo ?-splittings della biestensione di Poincar� di un 1-motivo e richiediamo che siano compatibili con la linearizzazione canonica associata alla biestensione. Stabiliamo quindi risultati riguardanti l'esistenza di tali ?-splittings. Quando ? � non ramificato, tale risultato segue se l'accoppiamento di monodromia dell?1-motivo preso in considerazione � non degenere. Per ? ramificato, il ?-splitting si costruisce a partire da una coppia di scissioni delle filtrazioni di Hodge delle realizzazioni di de Rham dell?1-motivo e del suo duale. In questo modo generalizziamo precedenti risultati di R. Coleman and Y. Zarhin sulle variet� abeliane. Questi ?-splittings vengono poi usati per definire un accoppiamento globale sui punti razionali di un 1-motivo e del suo duale. Infine forniamo accoppiamenti locali tra i zero-cicli e i divisori di una variet�, applicando i risultati precedenti ai suoi 1-motivi di Picard e d?Albanese.

description: A quantum phase transition is a dramatic event marked by large spatial and temporal fluctuations, where one phase of matter with its ground state and tower of excitations reorganizes into a completely different phase. We provide new insight into the disorder-driven superconductor-insulator transition (SIT) in two dimensions, a problem of great theoretical and experimental interest, with the dynamical conductivity σ(ω) and the bosonic (pair) spectral function P(ω) calculated from quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We identify characteristic energy scales in the superconducting and insulating phases that vanish at the transition due to enhanced quantum fluctuations, despite the persistence of a robust fermionic gap across the SIT. Disorder leads to enhanced absorption in σ(ω) at low frequencies compared to the SIT in a clean system. Disorder also expands the quantum critical region, due to a change in the universality class, with an underlying T=0 critical point with a finite low-frequency conductivity.

description: Using long-duration general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of radiatively inefficient accretion discs, the energy, momentum and mass outflow rates from such systems are estimated. Outflows occur via two fairly distinct modes: a relativistic jet and a sub-relativistic wind. The jet power depends strongly on the black hole spin and on the magnetic flux at the horizon. Unless these are very small, the energy output in the jet dominates over that in the wind. For a rapidly spinning black hole accreting in the magnetically arrested limit, it is confirmed that jet power exceeds the total rate of accretion of rest mass energy. However, because of strong collimation, the jet probably does not have a significant feedback effect on its immediate surroundings. The power in the wind is more modest and shows a weaker dependence on black hole spin and magnetic flux. Nevertheless, because the wind subtends a large solid angle, it is expected to provide efficient feedback on a wide range of scales inside the host galaxy. Empirical formulae are obtained for the energy and momentum outflow rates in the jet and the wind.

ROLE OF POLO KINASE CDC5 AND SLX4-RTT107 COMPLEX IN CHECKPOINT SIGNALING DURING DNA DAMAGE IN S. CEREVISIAE

description: The integrity of genomic DNA is continuously jeopardized through of environmental stresses such as UV light, ionizing radiations and various chemicals in addition to cellular byproducts such as reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, structural or chemical hindrances also affect the basic cellular processes (replication, transcription and translation) compromising genome stability. All the eukaryotic cells have thus evolved mechanisms to detect such genomic lesions and activate a surveillance mechanisms termed as checkpoint activation to arrest cell cycle, which in term provide time to repair the lesion using a suitable pathway to maintain genome stability. The resumption of cell cycle after the repair is also an important and finely regulated mechanisms. Indeed, resumption of cell cycle in case of faulty/un-repaired damage compromises genome integrity and may lead to cancer. In this thesis, I studied the role of Polo-kinase Cdc5 and DNA repair scaffold complex-Slx-Rtt107, specifically in response to one of the most deleterious lesion, DNA double strand break (DSB) in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The human counterpart Polo-like kinase 1 is overexpressed in many cancers, while Slx4/FANCP is one of the proteins involved in Fanconi anemia repair pathway. In first part, we characterized the role of phosphorylation of Threonine 238 in the activation loop of the Cdc5 kinase domain in unperturbed cell cycle and in response to repairable and unrepairable DSB. Using alanine/ aspartic acid mutagenesis and genetic approaches we delineated the requirement of T238 phosphorylation of Cdc5. Interestingly, we discovered that absence of T238 phosphorylation of Cdc5, even though doesn?t affect the normal cell cycle, affects kinase activity and leads to defect in checkpoint adaptation and recovery after one DSB. Importantly, we also found that cdc5-T238A cells also have altered genome stability, assessed by using multiple genetic approaches. In second part, we characterized the role of Slx4-Rtt107 complex in modulating the level of checkpoint signalling and initial processing of DSB. Indeed in the absence of functional Slx4-Rtt107 complex, we found slower processing of DSB and hyper-activated checkpoint signalling which is due to increased binding of checkpoint adaptor protein Rad9 at the lesion. Importantly, this hyper-activated checkpoint has consequent effect on cell cycle resumption and proliferation in response to various DNA damaging agents.

This volume contains results of that survey. All the programs identified are listed in The Summary of the Inventory (Section II). The decision of whether or not to include a particular program in the inventory was based on whether the program was explicitly designed to protect agricultural land and on the apparent strength of its provisions. An inventory sheet for most, but not all, of these programs is presented in Section III of this report. The intent of each inventory sheet is to identify the program, describe its elements, summarize experience with it, identify related programs affecting the jurisdiction, and provide the names and telephone numbers of officials who can give additional information. The inventory sheets also identify population, economic, and agricultural characteristics of each jurisdiction.

MOLECULAR CONTROL OF SEED SIZE

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano

description: Seed derive from fertilized ovules and they constitute complex structures formed by three different parts: the seed coat, and the fertilization products, the endosperm and the embryo. During my Ph.D. I analyzed the role of MADS-domain transcription factor SEEDSTICK (STK) during the development of the seed coat in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana. Part II of this thesis contains the description of the role of STK in the regulation of several metabolic processes in the seed coat, providing evidences for a connection between cell fate determination, development and metabolism. In particular, the focus of the work is on the characterization of the differences, between the wild type and the stk mutant, in the synthesis of the proanthocyanidins (PAs) stored in the seed coat. PAs are a large group of compounds that have been previously reported for their role in different aspects of plant physiology, including defence against pathogens, protection of the embryo against UV-radiation and regulation of seed size. Part III of this thesis is dedicated to the analysis of seed size in Arabidopsis thaliana. We analysed the role of STK and of AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR 2 (ARF2) in the control of seed coat development and in response to the hormonal cascade of brassinosteroids, known regulators of seed size. We provide evidences that both STK and ARF2 are regulators of cell proliferation and of cell expansion; we show that these two genes act antagonistically to determine seed size and data obtained from the detailed characterization of stk, arf2 and stk arf2 mutants are used to discuss a novel genetic network, pivotal in the maternal control of seed yield.

description: Energy harvesting (EH) from ambient radio-frequency (RF) electromagnetic waves is an efficient solution for fully autonomous and sustainable communication networks. Most of the related works presented in the literature are based on specific (and small-scale) network structures, which although give useful insights on the potential benefits of the RF-EH technology, cannot characterize the performance of general networks. In this paper, we adopt a large-scale approach of the RF-EH technology and we characterize the performance of a network with random number of transmitter-receiver pairs by using stochastic-geometry tools. Specifically, we analyze the outage probability performance and the average harvested energy, when receivers employ power splitting (PS) technique for "simultaneous" information and energy transfer. A non-cooperative scheme, where information/energy are conveyed only via direct links, is firstly considered and the outage performance of the system as well as the average harvested energy are derived in closed form in function of the power splitting. For this protocol, an interesting optimization problem which minimizes the transmitted power under outage probability and harvesting constraints, is formulated and solved in closed form. In addition, we study a cooperative protocol where sources' transmissions are supported by a random number of potential relays that are randomly distributed into the network. In this case, information/energy can be received at each destination via two independent and orthogonal paths (in case of relaying). We characterize both performance metrics, when a selection combining scheme is applied at the receivers and a single relay is randomly selected for cooperative diversity.

description: An experiment with adults (qualtrics survey) to test whether people who adopt a particular goal are less sensitive to action costs than before they have chosen any goals. Specifically, we test if participants are more likely to choose and complete costly actions when it is paired with a goal they had previously chosen (but not yet started working on), compared to when they haven't already chosen a goal (and thus are jointly choosing (goal, action) pairs). In this experiment, we present participants with non-moral goals (e.g., do you want to make an ice cream or a milkshake?)

description: Phototrophic organisms such as plants, photosynthetic bacteria and algae use microscopic complexes of pigment molecules to absorb sunlight. Within the light-harvesting complexes, which frequently have several functional and structural subunits, the energy is transferred in the form of molecular excitations with very high efficiency. Green sulfur bacteria are considered to be amongst the most efficient light-harvesting organisms. Despite multiple experimental and theoretical studies of these bacteria the physical origin of the efficient and robust energy transfer in their light-harvesting complexes is not well understood. To study excitation dynamics at the systems level we introduce an atomistic model that mimics a complete light-harvesting apparatus of green sulfur bacteria. The model contains approximately 4000 pigment molecules and comprises a double wall roll for the chlorosome, a baseplate and six Fenna-Matthews-Olson trimer complexes. We show that the fast relaxation within functional subunits combined with the transfer between collective excited states of pigments can result in robust energy funneling. Energy transfer is robust on the initial excitation conditions and temperature changes. Moreover, the same mechanism describes the coexistence of multiple timescales of excitation dynamics frequently observed in ultrafast optical experiments. While our findings support the hypothesis of supertransfer, the model reveals energy transport through multiple channels on different length scales.

description: A preferred method to detect the curl-component, or B-mode, signature of inflationary gravitational waves (IGWs) in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization, in the absence of foregrounds and lensing, is a prolonged integration over a single patch of sky of a few square degrees. In practice, however, foregrounds abound and the sensitivity to B modes can be improved considerably by finding the region of sky cleanest of foregrounds. The best strategy to detect B modes thus involves a tradeoff between exploration (to find lower-foreground patches) and exploitation (through prolonged integration). This problem is akin to the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem in probability theory, wherein a gambler faces a series of slot machines with unknown winning odds and must develop a strategy to maximize his/her winnings with some finite number of pulls. While the optimal MAB strategy remains to be determined, a number of algorithms have been developed in an effort to maximize the winnings. Here, based on this resemblance, we tackle the search for IGW B modes with single frequency experiments in the presence of spatially-varying foregrounds by developing adaptive survey strategies to optimize the sensitivity to IGW B modes. We demonstrate, using realistic foreground models and taking lensing-induced B modes into account, that adaptive experiments can substantially improve the upper bound on the tensor-to-scalar ratio (by factors of 2--3 in single frequency experiments, and possibly even more). Similar techniques can be applied to other surveys, including 21-cm measurements of signatures of the epoch of reionization, searches for a stochastic primordial gravitational wave background, deep-field imaging by the James Webb Space Telescope or various radio interferometers, and transient follow-up searches.

description: Current experiments do not support, as ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider reported, that the Higgs-like resonance discovered in July 2012 is a pure CP-odd state. We examine a general $hZZ$ vertex which contains CP-even and CP-odd couplings, by studying the process $h\to ZZ^*\to l_1^+l_1^-l_2^+l_2^-$ with $l_1,\, l_2= e$ or $μ$, to explore the CP mixed property of the Higgs-like particle. One momentum asymmetry and two angular asymmetries have been analyzed in order to reveal the difference from different CP-couplings. Our study shows that these asymmetries could be interesting observables in the future precise experiments.

Natural Factors of the Medvedev Lattice Capturing IPC

description: Skvortsova showed that there is a factor of the Medvedev lattice which captures intuitionistic propositional logic (IPC). However, her factor is unnatural in the sense that it is constructed in an ad hoc manner. We present a more natural example of such a factor. We also show that for every non-trivial factor of the Medvedev lattice its theory is contained in Jankov's logic, the deductive closure of IPC plus the weak law of the excluded middle. This answers a question by Sorbi and Terwijn.

description: In California, wastewater systems have adapted to water conservation and drought for decades. Yet, few studies have investigated how past design assumptions influence potential mitigation and adaptation actions. This paper evaluates adaptation pathways for wastewater management in California and addresses two questions. First, are wastewater facilities experiencing challenges from mismatches in design flow values and current rates of influent flow? Second, what, if any, adaptation actions are underway or planned? To answer these questions, we compiled historical literature and conducted surveys and interviews with wastewater system managers. Approximately half of respondents indicated that they are experiencing challenges associated with changing water use rates. Aging systems have implemented many types of mitigation and adaptation actions, including operational changes, chemical additions, and facility rebuilds. California’s wastewater industry is largely pursuing an incremental adaptation pathway to manage drought and climate change. The paper demonstrates an engaged approach to research on climate change adaptation.

description: A correct description of cosmic-ray (CR) diffusion in turbulent plasma is essential for many astrophysical and heliospheric problems. This paper aims to present physical diffusion behavior of CRs in actual turbulent magnetic fields, model of which has been numerically tested. We perform test particle simulations in compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. We obtain scattering and spatial diffusion coefficients by tracing particle trajectories. We find no resonance gap for pitch-angle scattering at 90$^\circ$. Our result confirms the dominance of mirror interaction with compressible modes for most pitch angles as revealed by the nonlinear theory. For cross-field transport, our results are consistent with normal diffusion predicted earlier for large scales. The diffusion behavior strongly depends on the Alfvenic Mach number and particle's parallel mean free path. We, for the first time, numerically derive the dependence of M_A^4 for perpendicular diffusion coefficient with respect to the mean magnetic field. We conclude that CR diffusion coefficients are anisotropic in sub-Alfvenic turbulence and spatially correlated to the local turbulence properties. On scales smaller than the injection scale, we find that CRs are superdiffusive. We emphasize the importance of our results in a wide range of astrophysical processes, including magnetic reconnection.
