A Biomimetic Total Synthesis of Clivonine
Creators: name: Paddock, Victoria L.
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: The first chapter of this thesis discusses the biomimetic total synthesis of clivonine. Clivonine is a member of the Amaryllidaceae family of alkaloids and was isolated from the plant Clivia miniata Regel by Wildman in 1956. Barton first proposed the biosynthesis of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids in 1958, hypothesising that the key diversifying step in the biosynthesis was an intramolecular phenolic oxidative coupling of a common precursor, norbelladine. However, it was not until 2 years later, in 1960, that Barton was able to account for the biosynthesis of the lycorenine class of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids, the class in which clivonine is a member. He proposed that a ‘ring-switch’ must occur after the initial intramolecular phenolic oxidative coupling from a lycorine type progenitor to that of a lycorenine type skeleton. Our synthesis of clivonine demonstrates for the first time the synthetic interconversion between these two classes of compounds in a manner that can be considered biomimetic. The second chapter of this thesis details our synthesis of the acetonide protected derivative of cis-3,5-cyclohexadien-1,2-diol. The first section of this chapter highlights the importance of these types of molecules and reviews the previous syntheses of this compound. The second section then details the development of a five-step three-pot synthesis of this compound in an overall 50% yield starting from commercially available 1,3-cyclohexadiene. The final chapter of this thesis discusses the studies towards the development of a catalytic asymmetric retro-Cope elimination reaction. This chapter will first highlight recent advances that have been made towards the asymmetric hydroamination (AHA) reaction before reviewing the recent progress made towards expanding the scope of the retro-Cope elimination reaction. Finally, our proposed method of developing an asymmetric retro-Cope reaction will be outlined, along with details of preliminary studies focussed on the development of a suitable system with which the asymmetric retro-Cope elimination can be studied.

description: Abstract of poster PS2.0050 presented July 2018 at International Congress of Neuroendocrinology. Toronto, Canada.
Prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) are widely studied for their reproductive pair-bonds, but individuals also demonstrate selective preferences for familiar same-sex peers. The mechanisms underlying pair-bonds in this species may differ from those underlying peer relationships, as reproductive partnerships and parental behaviors are highly motivated. We examined the role of reward and motivation in prairie vole peer relationships compared to prairie vole mate relationships through pharmacological manipulations of dopamine signaling as well as operant conditioning. Blockade of dopamine receptors with haloperidol did not alter selective preferences for familiar same-sex partners, suggesting that dopamine neurotransmission is not necessary for the formation of prairie vole peer relationships, unlike mate relationships. Voles were trained to press a lever to gain access to different types of social stimuli. Female voles pressed at higher rates to gain access to a mate than to a familiar same-sex peer. Once in the social chamber, females huddled significantly more with familiar mates or peers than with opposite- or same-sex strangers. These data support distinct roles of dopamine and motivation in peer relationships relative to pair-bonds: Although they are necessary to form and maintain pair-bonds, they are not necessary for peer relationships. The fact that a reproductive bond is mediated differently from a non-reproductive one suggests that peer relationships need to be further investigated in addition to pair-bonds to fully elucidate mechanisms of social behavior.

description: Over the past decade, evolutionary algorithms, data mining, and other methods showed great success in solving the main problem of theoretical crystallography: finding the stable structure for a given chemical composition. Here we develop a method that addresses the central problem of computational materials science: the prediction of material(s), among all possible combinations of all elements, that possess the best combination of target properties. This nonempirical method combines our new coevolutionary approach with the carefully restructured "Mendelevian" chemical space, energy filtering, and Pareto optimization to ensure that the predicted materials have optimal properties and a high chance to be synthesizable. The first calculations, presented here, illustrate the power of this approach. In particular, we find that diamond (and its polytypes, including lonsdaleite) are the hardest possible materials and that bcc-Fe has the highest zero-temperature magnetization among all possible compounds.

Aharonov-Bohm scattering on a cone

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Aharonov-Bohm scattering amplitude is calculated in the context of planar gravity with localized sources which also carry a magnetic flux. These sources cause space-time to develop conical singularities at their location, thus introducing novel effects in the scattering of electrically charged particles. The behaviour of the wave function in the proximity of the classical scattering directions is analyzed by means of an asymptotic expansion previously introduced by the author. It is found that, in contrast with the Aharonov-Bohm effect in flat space, integer values of the numerical flux can produce observable effects.

The impact areas surveyed consist of tower anchoring locations, pulling locations, access roads, and a wire set-up location. What appeared to be prehistoric check dams were observed at the pulling location and designated site NA15,784. No other archaeological materials or features were observed in the impact areas. Therefore, if the check dams are avoided during construction, archaeological clearance can be recommended for those areas to be impacted. Two versions of the same report.

description: A mechanism of generating the metric is proposed, where the Kalb-Ramond symmetry existing in the topological BF theory is broken through the condensation of the string fields which are so introduced as to couple with the anti-symmetric tensor fields $B$, invariantly under the Kalb-Ramond symmetry. In the chiral decomposition of the local Lorentz group, the non-Abelian $B$ fields need to be generalized to the string fields. The mechanism of the condensation is discussed, viewing the confinement problem and the polymer physics.

First record of the land planarian species Rhynchodemus sylvaticus in a nature of Czechia
Creators: name: Karolina, Plšková
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Invertebrate zoology

description: Rhynchodemus sylvaticus is a small species of land planarian with a cosmopolitan distribution. It is a successful invasive species with an unclear origin - several possible centers of origins are known, specificaly the Neotropical and Indonesian regions. The Nearctic region, where Rhynchodemus sylvaticus was described, is less rich on members of this genus. European origin of this species was also considered by some authors. The current distribution in Europe is known from various countries, mainly from citizen science-based reports. Despite its wide distribution in Europe and its generic cosmopolitan characteristics, this species has not been reported in the natural environment of Czechia yet. The only mentions regarding Rhynchodemus sylvaticus are older reports from Prague and Chotěboř, which contain greenhouse findings. Closest report in non-anthropogenic environment is located in Dunajské luhy area in Slovakia. A set of twelve specimens with pair of ocelli, pointy head,uniformly brown base color with darker longitudinal stripes accompanied by saddle-like patterning above the pharyngeal region in larger animals, and a milky ventral side was found in the Úpor-Černínovsko natural reserve in the Central Bohemian region during fieldwork focused on the freshwater triclad Girardia tigrina in summer 2023. 2D reconstructions of the sexual apparatus were processed. Eight subadults showed various levels of sexual maturation. No genital swelling associated with the presence of large male atrium was observed externally. No animal was confirmed as male mature histologically. The tendency of female organs to develop and differentiate first before male organs is well-known from previous results in older works regarding this hermaphroditic species. Histology reports of sexually fully mature animals are scarce in general, but external appearance can be used for successful identification as well, due to characteristic of coloration and patterning in other rhynchodemids. Poster is accopmanied by interactive WSI imagery First record of the land planarian species Rhynchodemus sylvaticus (Leidy,1852) in a naturalized area of Czechia

description: There has recently been a surge of interest in studying the superconducting diode effect (SDE) partly due to the possibility of uncovering the intrinsic properties of a material system. A change of sign of the SDE at finite magnetic field has previously been attributed to different mechanisms. Here, we observe the SDE in epitaxial Al-InAs Josephson junctions with strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC). We show that this effect strongly depends on the orientation of the in-plane magnetic field. In the presence of a strong magnetic field, we observe a change of sign in the SDE. Simulation and measurement of supercurrent suggest that depending on the superconducting widths, $W_\text{S}$, this sign change may not necessarily be related to 0--$π$ or topological transitions. We find that the strongest sign change in junctions with narrow $W_\text{S}$ is consistent with SOC-induced asymmetry of the critical current under magnetic-field inversion, while in wider $W_\text{S}$, the sign reversal could be related to 0--$π$ transitions and topological superconductivity.

description: We study the long time behavior of light particles, e.g. an electron swarm in which Coulomb interactions are unimportant, subjected to an external field and elastic collisions with an inert neutral gas. The time evolution of the velocity and position distribution function is described by a linear Boltzmann equation (LBE). The small ratio of electron to neutral masses, $ε$, makes the energy transfer between them very inefficient. We show that under suitable scalings the LBE reduces, in the limit $ε\to 0$, to a formally exact equation for the speed (energy) and position distribution of the electrons which contains mixed spatial and speed derivatives. When the system is spatially homogeneous this equation reduces to and thus justifies, for $ε$ small enough, the commonly used ``two-term'' approximation.

description: A lattice of integers is the collection of all linear combinations of a set of vectors for which all entries of the vectors are integers and all coefficients in the linear combinations are also integers. Lattice reduction refers to the problem of finding a set of vectors in a given lattice such that the collection of all integer linear combinations of this subset is still the entire original lattice and so that the Euclidean norms of the subset are reduced. The present paper proposes simple, efficient iterations for lattice reduction which are guaranteed to reduce the Euclidean norms of the basis vectors (the vectors in the subset) monotonically during every iteration. Each iteration selects the basis vector for which projecting off (with integer coefficients) the components of the other basis vectors along the selected vector minimizes the Euclidean norms of the reduced basis vectors. Each iteration projects off the components along the selected basis vector and efficiently updates all information required for the next iteration to select its best basis vector and perform the associated projections.

description: In the framework of the two-form gravity, which is classically equivalent to the Einstein gravity, the one-loop effective potential for the conformal factor of metric is calculated in the finite volume and in the finite temperature by choosing a temporal gauge condition. There appears a quartically divergent term which cannot be removed by the renormalization of the cosmological term and we find there is only one non-trivial minimum in the effective potential. If the cut-off scale has a physical meaning, \eg the Planck scale coming from string theory, this minimum might explain why the space-time is generated, \ie why the classical metric has a non-trivial value.

description: This study reports on a ceramic analysis of nearly 1500 surface-collected potsherds from five unexcavated sites on the river terrace at Aztec Ruins National Monument, including the Aztec North great house. I conducted a detailed attribute analysis and mean ceramic dating. The mean ceramic date for Aztec North is AD 1104±39, while other terrace sites have later mean dates. Based on these dates, it appears that Aztec North was constructed before or contemporaneously with Aztec West, and it might have been the first structure in the Terrace Community. These data support the theory that, even at this earliest moment, Aztec Ruins was already being planned as a unified landscape or even as a new Chaco. Moreover, the trade ware assemblages in the Terrace Community support the notion that people at this site were tied into Chacoan exchange networks.

description: A group theoretical procedure, introduced earlier (hep-th/9901090), to decompose bilocal light-ray operators into (harmonic) operators of definite twist is applied to the case of arbitrary 2nd rank tensors. As a generic example the bilocal gluon operator is considered which gets contributions of twist-2 up to twist-6 from four different symmetry classes characterized by conrresponding Young tableaus; also the twist decomposition of the related vector and scalar operators is considered. In addition, we extend these reselts to various trilocal light-ray operators, like the Shuryak-Vainshtein, the three-gluon and the four-quark operators, which are required for the consideration of higher twist distribution amplitudes. The present results rely on the knowledge of harmonic tensor polynomials of any order n which habe been determined up to the case of 2nd rank symmetric tensors for arbitrary space-time dimension.

High yields, easy work-up, easy availability and handling, eco-friendly and reusability of the catalysts are the main aspects of the present method. The simplicity of the entire sequence has made the protocol meritorious as a reasonable contribution to the existing methods in the field of substituted biphenyls and olefins. The supported heterogeneous catalyst was characterized using HRTEM, ICP-AES, PXRD, XPS, TGA, and FT-IR spectroscopy.

description: In this article, we show how the mathematical object tensor can be used to build a multi-paradigm model for the storage of social data in data warehouses. From an architectural point of view, our approach allows to link different storage systems (polystore) and limits the impact of ETL tools performing model transformations required to feed different analysis algorithms. Therefore, systems can take advantage of multiple data models both in terms of query execution performance and the semantic expressiveness of data representation. The proposed model allows to reach the logical independence between data and programs implementing analysis algorithms. With a concrete case study on message virality on Twitter during the French presidential election of 2017, we highlight some of the contributions of our model.

description: The topological properties of the flat band states of a one-electron Hamiltonian that describes a chain of atoms with $s-p$ orbitals are explored. This model is mapped onto a Kitaev-Creutz type model, providing a useful framework to understand the topology through a nontrivial winding number and the geometry introduced by the \textit{Fubini-Study (FS)} metric. This metric allows us to distinguish between pure states of systems with the same topology and thus provides a suitable tool for obtaining the fingerprint of flat bands. Moreover, it provides an appealing geometrical picture for describing flat bands as it can be associated with a local conformal transformation over circles in a complex plane. In addition, the presented model allows us to relate the topology with the formation of Compact Localized States (CLS) and pseudo-Bogoliubov modes. Also, the properties of the squared Hamiltonian are investigated in order to provide a better understanding of the localization properties and the spectrum. The presented model is equivalent to two coupled SSH chains under a change of basis.

Secure and Practical Splitting of IoT Device Functionalities

description:  Internet-of-things (IoT) devices have rapidly gained popularity in people’s daily lives. While these devices provide many smart functionalities and enable new ap?plications, they raise several security and privacy concerns and practical operational challenges for device users and vendors. With their growing adoption and sheer deployment volumes, IoT devices have become attractive targets for attackers, and many recent security incidents have had broad and serious impacts. Meanwhile, IoT devices can collect a wide range of personal data through sensors and ubiquitous placements. It is an important challenge for device vendors to protect users’ privacy and manage access control properly. In addition, device vendors have to invest heftily in cloud infrastructures to mitigate the limited computation resources on devices. With more and more devices installed in the future, the demand for more computation will also increase.
 We attribute these concerns and challenges of future IoT deployment partially to the predominant monolithic design of IoT devices and applications. Device vendors must take responsibility for many tasks, including managing device security, protecting user data privacy, and maintaining cloud infrastructure efficiently. However, device vendors mainly focus on building compelling applications to attract more users. Therefore, they have to prioritize certain tasks over other responsibilities, given their limited engineering resources. As a result, the current monolithic design leads to many vulnerabilities, security incidents, and inefficiencies. 
In this thesis, we argue that by combining formal security analyses and performance optimizations, we can achieve a separation of concerns and offload many high-level IoT functionalities to third-party services, improving IoT devices’ security and privacy while minimizing performance impacts. In particular, we design three systems — TEO, CAPTURE, and VERISPLIT — to showcase the benefits of functionality splitting. Each of these systems delivers strong security and practicality guarantees. We demonstrate their feasibility and effectiveness with prototype implementations and evaluations using various smart home applications. Overall, these systems present several novel techniques towards enabling secure and practical functionality splitting for IoT devices
Raman cooling of atoms below the gravitational limit

description: Raman cooling of non-zero-spin atoms in the presence of gravitational and external magnetic fields is investigated. The magnetic field is adjusted so as to compensate for the gravitational force acting on ground-state atoms. The dark state (DS) is created and supported in momentum space with additional velocity-selective two-photon transitions. The minimum allowed temperature is found to be determined only by the width of velocity selection and therefore can be much less than the gravitational limit. A complete set of analytical formulas describing cooling of a dilute atomic sample is derived. They serve as the basis for numerical simulations which are carried out in the one-dimensional (1D) case.
description: Final version accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. A. There are the following changes in the revised manuscript: 1. Explicit range for magnetic field is given, and compensation of gravity in 3D is explaned. 2. Values of all parameters used in the numerical simulation are given. Latex (revtex), 16 pages, 5 figures

description: The generalisation of the rigid special geometry of the vector multiplet quantum moduli space to the case of supergravity is discussed through the notion of a dynamical Calabi--Yau threefold. Duality symmetries of this manifold are connected with the analogous dualities associated with the dynamical Riemann surface of the rigid theory. N=2 rigid gauge theories are reviewed in a framework ready for comparison with the local case. As a byproduct we give in general the full duality group (quantum monodromy) for an arbitrary rigid $SU(r+1)$ gauge theory, extending previous explicit constructions for the $r=1,2$ cases. In the coupling to gravity, R--symmetry and monodromy groups of the dynamical Riemann surface, whose structure we discuss in detail, are embedded into the symplectic duality group $Γ_D$ associated with the moduli space of the dynamical Calabi--Yau threefold.

description: Spatial search by discrete-time quantum walk can find a marked node on any ergodic, reversible Markov chain $P$ quadratically faster than its classical counterpart, i.e.\ in a time that is in the square root of the hitting time of $P$. However, in the framework of continuous-time quantum walks, it was previously unknown whether such general speed-up is possible. In fact, in this framework, the widely used quantum algorithm by Childs and Goldstone fails to achieve such a speedup. Furthermore, it is not clear how to apply this algorithm for searching any Markov chain $P$. In this article, we aim to reconcile the apparent differences between the running times of spatial search algorithms in these two frameworks. We first present a modified version of the Childs and Goldstone algorithm which can search for a marked element for any ergodic, reversible $P$ by performing a quantum walk on its edges. Although this approach improves the algorithmic running time for several instances, it cannot provide a generic quadratic speedup for any $P$. Secondly, using the framework of interpolated Markov chains, we provide a new spatial search algorithm by continuous-time quantum walk which can find a marked node on any $P$ in the square root of the classical hitting time. In the scenario where multiple nodes are marked, the algorithmic running time scales as the square root of a quantity known as the extended hitting time. Our results establish a novel connection between discrete-time and continuous-time quantum walks and can be used to develop a number of Markov chain-based quantum algorithms.
description: This version deals only with new algorithms for spatial search by continuous-time quantum walk (CTQW) on ergodic, reversible Markov chains.

description:  Robots hold the promise of becoming an integral part of human life by helping us in  our homes, out on farms and in our factories. However, current robots lack the motor  skills necessary to perform everyday manipulation tasks, operate outside structured  settings and interact with humans. This thesis advocates the principles of active,  continual and collaborative learning to allow a robot to autonomously learn the skills  necessary to master its domain. We propose a novel Plan to Learn (P2L) framework  in which the robot solves a meta planning problem to decide which skills it should  learn so that it can achieve its long-term objective while minimizing the cost of data  collection. We formalize and study this idea from both a practical and a theoretical  lens in two challenging scenarios.  
First, we explore how robots can plan to learn as part of a collaborative human robot team. We develop an optimal mixed integer programming-based planner Act,  Delegate, or Learn (ADL) to allocate tasks and decide which skills the robot should  learn to reduce its teammate’s workload. We also provide log(n)-approximation algo rithmns for ADL by showing that it is an instance of the well-known uncapacitated  facility location problem. Next, we explore multi-step tasks, such as opening a door,  which require several skills to be sequenced. Our first algorithm MetaReasoning for  Skill Learning (MetaReSkill) estimates a probabilistic model of skill improvement to  identify and prioritize skills that are both easy to learn and most relevant to the over all task. Finally, we present a hierarchical reinforcement learning formulation to solve  the P2L problem for recovery learning. RecoveryChaining learns both where and how  to recover by leveraging a hybrid action space consisting of primitive robot actions  and nominal options that transfer control to a model-based controller. We demon strate the effectiveness of our P2L framework on a variety of practically motivated  and challenging manipulation tasks both in simulation and in the real world.  
This thesis is only a first step towards the ambitious goal of building autonomously  learning robots that plan to learn. We sincerely hope that the developed framework  and its instantiations on these manipulation tasks will pave the way for further re search.
