description: Poster presentation given at ISSI 2019 conference and the related paper. In these, we describe our effort, motivated by the 2019 research assessment of the University of Helsinki, to understand and test results from the tool RunNetworkClustering by CWTS, Leiden on a citation network containing about 67000 publications. The network was compiled and studying the network partitions produced by the tool were done using the statistical software R. Our finding was that clusters based on partitions from this clustering method vary and normalized indicators fluctuate despite similar high quality function values and no clear criterion was found to choose a robust clustering. Also, the 2018 published Leiden algorithm, included in the tool, uses random numbers to explore the space of network partitions and therefore the algorithm finds varying partitions even with identical assigned parameter values. Due to limited space in the poster, we did not report all tests that were made, e.g., raising the number of iterations up to 2000 and using only the so called giant component of the network. The latter is problematic in the context of research assessment because all publications should be somehow taken into account, and the conclusions and speculations were not altered based on these tests. In conclusion, citation network clustering is possibly an important step in finding more fundamental partitions of scientific research into fields and sub-fields, but work is needed to find criteria for evaluating the results from the point of view of cluster contents.

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Molecular biology

description: This dissertation serves to analyze the molecular and cellular signaling mechanisms by which aldose reductase (AR) contributes to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, specifically in the myocardium. It provides a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiology associated with acute coronary syndromes, the mechanisms of normal myocardial substrate metabolism, and how metabolism is altered under ischemic conditions. Specific chapters in this dissertation aim to elucidate whether AR pathway mediated I/R injury is linked to changes in glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) phosphorylation, and whether an increased flux via AR and resultant I/R injury is mediated by changes in autophagy.

description: For any complex classical group $G=O_N,Sp_N$ consider the ring $Z(g)$ of $G$-invariants in the corresponding enveloping algebra $U(g)$. Let $u$ be a complex parameter. For each $n=0,1,2,...$ and every partition $ν$ of $n$ into at most $N$ parts we define a certain rational function $Z_ν(u)$ which takes values in $Z(g)$. Our definition is motivated by the works of Cherednik and Sklyanin on the reflection equation, and also by the classical Capelli identity. The degrees in $U(g)$ of the values of $Z_ν(u)$ do not exceed $n$. We describe the images of these values in the $n$-th symmetric power of $g$. Our description involves the plethysm coefficients as studied by Littlewood, see Theorem 3.4 and Corollary 3.6.

description: Neurons rely on precise spatial and temporal control of neurotransmitter release to ensure proper communication. Neurotransmission occurs when synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic compartment fuse with the plasma membrane and release their contents into the synaptic cleft, where neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. Synaptic vesicle pools must maintain a functional repertoire of proteins in order to efficiently release neurotransmitter. Indeed, the accumulation of old or damaged proteins on synaptic vesicle membranes is linked to synaptic dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Despite the importance of synaptic vesicle protein turnover for neuronal health, the molecular mechanisms underlying this process are unknown. In this thesis, we present work that uncovers key components that regulate synaptic vesicle degradation.  Specifically, we identify a pathway that mediates the activity-dependent turnover of a subset of synaptic vesicle membrane proteins in mammalian neurons. This pathway requires the synaptic vesicle-associated GTPase Rab35, the ESCRT machinery, and synaptic vesicle protein ubiquitination. We further demonstrate that neuronal activity stimulates synaptic vesicle protein turnover by inducing Rab35 activation and binding to the ESCRT-0 component Hrs, which we have identified as a novel Rab35 effector. These actions recruit the downstream ESCRT machinery to synaptic vesicle pools, thereby initiating synaptic vesicle protein degradation via the ESCRT pathway. Interestingly, we find that not all synaptic vesicle proteins are degraded by this mechanism, suggesting that synaptic vesicles are not degraded as units, but rather that SV proteins are degraded individually or in subsets. Moreover, we find that lysine-63 ubiquitination of VAMP2 is required for its degradation, and we identify an E3 ubiquitin ligase, RNF167, that is responsible for this activity. Our findings show that RNF167 and the Rab35/ESCRT pathway facilitate the removal of specific proteins from synaptic vesicle pools, thereby maintaining presynaptic protein homeostasis. Overall, our studies provide novel mechanistic insight into the coupling of neuronal activity with synaptic vesicle protein degradation, and implicate ubiquitination as a major regulator in maintaining functional synaptic vesicle pools. These findings will facilitate future studies determining the effects of perturbations to synaptic homeostasis in neuronal dysfunction and degeneration.

description: With huge data acquisition progresses realized in the past decades and acquisition systems now able to produce high resolution grids and point clouds, the digitization of physical terrains becomes increasingly more precise. Such extreme quantities of generated and modeled data greatly impact computational performances on many levels of high-performance computing (HPC): storage media, memory requirements, transfer capability, and finally simulation interactivity, necessary to exploit this instance of big data. Efficient representations and storage are thus becoming "enabling technologies'' in HPC experimental and simulation science. We propose HexaShrink, an original decomposition scheme for structured hexahedral volume meshes. The latter are used for instance in biomedical engineering, materials science, or geosciences. HexaShrink provides a comprehensive framework allowing efficient mesh visualization and storage. Its exactly reversible multiresolution decomposition yields a hierarchy of meshes of increasing levels of details, in terms of either geometry, continuous or categorical properties of cells. Starting with an overview of volume meshes compression techniques, our contribution blends coherently different multiresolution wavelet schemes in different dimensions. It results in a global framework preserving discontinuities (faults) across scales, implemented as a fully reversible upscaling at different resolutions. Experimental results are provided on meshes of varying size and complexity. They emphasize the consistency of the proposed representation, in terms of visualization, attribute downsampling and distribution at different resolutions. Finally, HexaShrink yields gains in storage space when combined to lossless compression techniques.

description: Dendritic cells (DCs) comprise a distinct lineage of potent antigen-presenting mononuclear phagocytes that serve as both mediators of innate immune responses and key facilitators of the adaptive immune response. DCs play both immunogenic and tolerogenic roles through their dual ability to elicit pathogen-specific T cell immunity as well as induce regulatory T cell (Treg) responses to promote tolerance in the steady state. The aim of the work presented here is to examine the normal regulatory mechanisms of DC development and function, starting with the dissection of mechanisms behind an aberrantly activated developmental pathway, followed by the exploration of new mechanisms governed by two candidate transcription factors. The first chapter of the thesis focuses on the growth factor receptor Flt3, an essential regulator of normal DC development in both mice and humans, and concurrently one of the most commonly mutated proteins found in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We investigated the effect of its most common activating mutation in AML, the Flt3 internal tandem duplication (Flt3-ITD), and found that this mutation caused a significant cell-intrinsic expansion of all DC populations. This effect was associated with an expansion of Tregs and the ability to dampen self-reactivity, with an inability to control autoimmunity in the absence of Tregs. Thus, we describe a potential mechanism by which leukemia can modulate T cell responses and support Treg expansion indirectly through DCs, which may compromise immunosurveillance and promote leukemogenesis. The subsequent chapters explore the basic molecular mechanisms of DC development by using Flt3 expression as a guide to uncover new candidates involved in the DC transcriptional program. We show that Myc family transcription factor, Mycl1, is largely dispensable for DC development and function, contrary to recent published findings that propose a role in proliferation and T cell priming. On the other hand, we find that conditional deletion of our second candidate gene, an Ets family transcription factor, has diverse effects on DC development, monocyte homeostasis, and cytokine production. Overall, our studies highlight an unexpected molecular link between DC development and leukemogenesis, and elucidate novel mechanisms controlling DC differentiation and function.

description: BACKGROUND: Vulnerable populations across the United States are frequently exposed to extreme heat, which is becoming more intense due to a combination of climate change and urban-induced warming. Extreme heat can be particularly detrimental to the health and well-being of older citizens when it is combined with ozone. Although population-based studies have demonstrated associations between ozone, extreme heat, and human health, few studies focused on the role of social and behavioral factors that increase indoor risk and exposure among older adults.
METHODS: We conducted a household survey that aimed to understand how older adults are affected by extreme heat and ozone pollution inside and outside of their homes across Houston, Phoenix, and Los Angeles. We examine contributing factors to the risk of self-reported health effects using a generalized linear mixed-effects regression model of telephone survey data of 909 older adults in 2017.
RESULTS: We found an increased occurrence of self-reported symptoms for extreme heat with preexisting respiratory health conditions and a lack of air conditioning access; self-reported ozone symptoms were more likely with preexisting respiratory health conditions. The risk of heat-related symptoms was slightly higher in Los Angeles than Houston and Phoenix. We found several demographic, housing, and behavioral characteristics that influenced the risk of heat- and ozone-related symptoms.
CONCLUSIONS: The increased risk among older adults based on specific social and behavioral factors identified in this study can inform public health policy and help cities tailor their heat and ozone response plans to the specific needs of this vulnerable population.

description: We compared selenium concentrations in the eggs of 2 riverine waterbirds, American dippers (Cinclus mexicanus) and spotted sandpipers (Actitis macularia), with measures of productivity: clutch size, brood size, and health status of eggs and young. In American dippers, the mean egg selenium concentration from the exposed areas was slightly higher (1.08 μg/g ww) than in the reference areas (0.95 μg/g ww), but this difference was not significant. For spotted sandpipers, the mean egg selenium concentration in the exposed areas was 2.2 ± 0.5 μg/g ww and in the reference areas, 1.2 ± 0.14 μg/g ww. This difference was significant, and was close to published toxicity thresholds. There were no significant differences between reference areas and exposed groups for clutch size, hatching success, or fledging success in either species. There was also no correlation between selenium concentrations and eggs laid, eggs hatched or hatchlings fledged in either species. There was no significant difference in health status of eggs (viable, inviable, or dead embryo) between the exposed and reference sites, and no relationship between selenium concentrations and the eggs’ health status. Although selenium was being taken up in spotted sandpipers, it was below levels that would affect reproduction or productivity.

description: William Wood, a native of Fletching, returned to Sussex after 30 years as an embassy servant and fo unded a nursery at Tyes Gate in Maresfield, on the edge of the Ashdown Forest, in 1826. The business was active, at first with great success, for almost a century, and was a major seasonal employer in the area. It took advantage of changes in horticultural and landscaping fashions and the rise of the 'gentleman gardener'. The second generation had none of William's resistance to the ra ilway and used it to the full. Untimely deaths, changing fashions and post-war depression led to the decline of the business, and ultimately to its closure in 1922.

description: We study the quantum mechanical evolution of the tensor perturbations during inflation with non-linear tensor interactions. We first obtain the Lindblad terms generated by non-linear interactions by tracing out unobservable sub-horizon modes. Then we calculate explicitly the reduced density matrix for the super-horizon modes, and show that the probability of maintaining the unitarity of the squeezed state decreases in time. The decreased probability is transferred to other elements of the reduced density matrix including off-diagonal ones, so the evolution of the reduced density matrix describes the quantum-to-classical transition of the tensor perturbations. This is different from the classicality accomplished by the squeezed state, the suppression of the non-commutative effect, which is originated from the quadratic, linear interaction, and also maintains the unitarity. The quantum-to-classical transition occurs within 5 - 10 e-folds, faster than the curvature perturbation.

description: This paper presents the mathematical modeling, controller design, and flight-testing of an over-actuated Vertical Take-off and Landing (VTOL) tiltwing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Based on simplified aerodynamics and first-principles, a dynamical model of the UAV is developed which captures key aerodynamic effects including propeller slipstream on the wing and post-stall characteristics of the airfoils. The model-based steady-state flight envelope and the corresponding trim-actuation is analyzed and the overactuation of the UAV solved by optimizing for, e.g., power-optimal trims. The developed control system is composed of two controllers: First, a low-level attitude controller based on dynamic inversion and a daisy-chaining approach to handle allocation of redundant actuators. Secondly, a higher-level cruise controller to track a desired vertical velocity. It is based on a linearization of the system and look-up tables to determine the strong and nonlinear variation of the trims throughout the flight-envelope. We demonstrate the performance of the control-system for all flight phases (hover, transition, cruise) in extensive flight-tests.

description: One clear observational prediction of the single degenerate progenitor scenario as the origin of type Ia supernovae (SNe) is the presence of relatively narrow ($\approx$1000 km s$^{-1}$) H$α$ emission at nebular phases, although this feature is rarely seen. We present a compilation of nebular phase H$α$ limits for SN Ia in the literature and demonstrate that this heterogenous sample has been biased towards SN Ia with relatively high luminosities and slow decline rates, as parameterized by $Δ$m$_{15}(B)$, the difference in $B$-band magnitude between maximum light and fifteen days afterward. Motivated by the need to explore the full parameter space of SN~Ia and their subtypes, we present two new and six previously published nebular spectra of SN Ia with $Δ$m$_{15}(B)$$ > $1.3 mag (including members of the transitional and SN1991bg-like subclasses) and measure nondetection limits of $L_{Hα}$$~

description: Despite the long-recognized connection between poverty and charity, and the scholarly attention paid to the culture of charity, there have been very few studies that have yielded the kind of quantitative results that would enable scholars of antiquity to assess the sources and impact of church wealth gained from non-elites. I ask three questions: (1) Who was asked to give? (2) Who could afford to give? (3) Who did, in fact, give? Three bodies of evidence offer answers: (1) The the patristic corpus suggests targets of solicitation as well as a rhetorical strategy for encouraging donation, (2) household economic models give a sense of how potential donors could generate disposable in- come through ascetic practice, and (3) a selection of small donations, specifically Christian small silvers, can be valued in a way that permits conjecture regarding the social profile of donors in late antiquity. Pursuing charity in this way offers the opportunity to get past ecclesiastical self- representation and gaps in evidence by looking at the underlying structures of the phenomenon. This in turn promises a clearer idea of the relationship between charity and philanthropy, placing church institutions back in their social context.

description: A complete description of dynamics of compact locally homogeneous universes is given, which, in particular, includes explicit calculations of Teichmüller deformations and careful counting of dynamical degrees of freedom. We regard each of the universes as a simply connected four dimensional spacetime with identifications by the action of a discrete subgroup of the isometry group. We then reduce the identifications defined by the spacetime isometries to ones in a homogeneous section, and find a condition that such spatial identifications must satisfy. This is essential for explicit construction of compact homogenoeus universes. Some examples are demonstrated for Bianchi II, VI${}_0$, VII${}_0$, and I universal covers.

description: Software cognitive radios and Internet of Things (IoT) are recent interest areas that need low loss and low power consumption hardware.  More specifically, the area of software cognitive radios requires that hardware be frequency agile and highly selective.  Meanwhile, IoT relies on multiple low power sensor networks.  By combining Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductors (CMOS) technology with piezoelectric Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), we can fabricate Systems-on-Chip (SoC) that can be used as filters or references (oscillators) and highly selective sensors.
      In this work we developed a die-level compatible process for the monolithic integration of Bulk Acoustic Resonators (BAWs) on CMOS for low power, reduced area and high-quality passives for radio frequency applications.  Using CMOS as a fabrication substrate some stringent requirements were added to maintain the dies and the technology’s integrity.  A few of these limitations were the need for a low thermal budget fabrication process, die handling and electro-static discharge (ESD) protection.  The devices were first fabricated on glass for modeling extraction that was later used for the design of the integrated circuits (IC).  Three integrated circuits were designed as substrates for the integration using IBM’s 180nm and TSMC’s 65nm technology.  A monolithic BAW oscillator with a resonance frequency of 1.8GHz was demonstrated with an FOM ~186dBc/Hz, comparable to other academia work.
      Using the developed process, a membrane BAW structure (FBAR) was integrated as well.  Using a susceptor coating and zinc oxide’s (ZnO) high temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) the device was studied as an alternative uncooled infrared sensor.  Finally, a reprogrammable IC and an RF PCB were designed for volatile organic compound (VOC) testing using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) as the absorber layer.

description: We discuss arguments both in favor of and against dark matter. With the repeated failure of experiment to date to detect dark matter we discuss what could be done instead, and to this end look for clues in the data themselves. We identify various regularities in galactic rotation curve data that correlate the total gravitational potential with luminous matter rather than dark matter. We identify a contribution to galactic rotation curves coming from the rest of the visible Universe, and suggest that dark matter is just an attempt to describe this global effect in terms of standard local Newtonian gravity within galaxies. Thus the missing mass is not missing at all -- it has been hiding in plain sight all along as the rest of the visible mass in the Universe.

description: Reliable design of artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) to access transformations not observed in nature remains a long-standing and important challenge. We report that a monomeric streptavidin (mSav) Rh(III) ArM permits asymmetric synthesis of α,β-unsaturated-δ-lactams via a tandem C-H activation and [4+2] annulation reaction. These products are readily derivatized to enantioenriched piperidines, the most common N-heterocycle found in FDA approved pharmaceuticals. Embedding a Rh cyclopentadienyl (Cp*) catalyst in the active site of mSav results in improved stereocontrol and a seven-fold enhancement in reactivity relative to the isolated biotinylated Rh(III) cofactor. With the goal of using protein engineering to improve the activity of monomeric streptavidin (mSav) ArM complexed to Rh(III), we also report computational calculations that demonstrate the effects of modifying the secondary coordination sphere. These findings have allowed us to engineer a more active mutant G49A that provides up to 67 more TON compared to WT mSav ArM. Directed evolution techniques, when applied to ArMs, allows us to mimic the natural selection process and thereby dramatically increase the TON of the ArM. This technology has been used to develop an artificial aminobrominase with up to 2587 TON.

description: Wireless communication circuits rely on the use of high-quality passive elements (inductor-capacitor resonant tanks) for the implementation of selective filters and high-purity frequency references (oscillators). Typically available CMOS, on-chip passives suffer from high losses, primarily inductors, and consume large areas that cannot be populated by transistors leading to a significant area penalty. Mechanical resonators exhibit significantly lower losses than their electrical counterparts due to the reduced parasitic loss mechanisms in the mechanical domain. Efficient transduction schemes such as the piezoelectric effect allow for simple electrical actuation and read-out of such mechanical resonators. Piezoelectric thin-film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs) are currently among the most promising and widely used mechanical resonator structures. However, FBARs are currently only available as off-chip components, which must be connected to CMOS circuitry through wire-bonding and flip-chip schemes. The use of off-chip interfaces introduces considerable parasitics and significant limitations on integration density. Monolithic integration with CMOS substrates alleviates interconnect parasitics, increases integration density and allows for area sharing whereby FBARs reside atop active CMOS circuitry. Close integration of FBARs and CMOS transistors can also enable new circuit paradigms, which simultaneously leverage the strengths of both components.
      Described here, is a body of work conducted to integrate FBAR resonators with active CMOS substrates (180nm and 65nm processes). A monolithic fabrication method is described which allows for FBAR devices to be constructed atop the backend small CMOS dies through low thermal-budget (< 300°C) post-processing. Stand-alone fabricated devices are characterized and the extracted electrical model is used to design two oscillator chips. The chips comprise amplifier circuitry that functions along with the integrated FBARs to achieve oscillation in the 0.8-2 GHz range. The chips also include test structures to assess the performance of the underlying CMOS transistors before and after the resonator post-processing. A successful FBAR-CMOS oscillator is demonstrated in 65nm CMOS along with characterization of FBARs built on CMOS. The approach presented here can be used for experimenting with more complex circuits leveraging the co-integration of piezoelectric resonators and CMOS transistors.

description: We study the transport properties and superconducting proximity effect in NSN junctions formed by a time-reversal symmetry broken Weyl semimetal (WSM) in proximity to an $s$-wave superconductor. We find that the differential conductance and induced pairing amplitudes strongly depend on the angle between the junction direction in real space and the axis separating the Weyl nodes in momentum space. We identify the influence of a chiral chemical potential, i.e., the electron population imbalance between Weyl nodes of opposite chirality, on the transport characteristics of the junction. Remarkably, we observe a net spin polarization of Cooper pairs that are generated via Andreev reflection in the two WSM regions. The spin polarization is opposite in the two WSM regions and highly sensitive to the chirality imbalance and excitation energy.

Monopole Floer homology, link surgery, and odd Khovanov homology

Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: subject: Mathematics

description: We construct a link surgery spectral sequence for all versions of monopole Floer homology with mod 2 coefficients, generalizing the exact triangle.  The spectral sequence begins with the monopole Floer homology of a hypercube of surgeries on a 3-manifold Y, and converges to the monopole Floer homology of Y itself.  This allows one to realize the latter group as the homology of a complex over a combinatorial set of generators.  Our construction relates the topology of link surgeries to the combinatorics of graph associahedra, leading to new inductive realizations of the latter. As an application, given a link L in the 3-sphere, we prove that the monopole Floer homology of the branched double-cover arises via a filtered perturbation of the differential on the reduced Khovanov complex of a diagram of L.  The associated spectral sequence carries a filtration grading, as well as a mod 2 grading which interpolates between the delta grading on Khovanov homology and the mod 2 grading on Floer homology.  Furthermore, the bigraded isomorphism class of the higher pages depends only on the Conway-mutation equivalence class of L.  We constrain the existence of an integer bigrading by considering versions of the spectral sequence with non-trivial U action, and determine all monopole Floer groups of branched double-covers of links with thin Khovanov homology. Motivated by this perspective, we show that odd Khovanov homology with integer coefficients is mutation invariant.  The proof uses only elementary algebraic topology and leads to a new formula for link signature that is well-adapted to Khovanov homology.
