description: In four space-time dimensions, there exists a special infinite-parameter family of chiral modified gravity theories. All these theories describe just two propagating polarizations of the graviton. General Relativity with an arbitrary cosmological constant is the only parity-invariant member of this family. We review how these modified gravity theories arise within the framework of pure-connection formulation. We introduce a new convenient parametrisation of this family of theories by using certain set of auxiliary fields. Modifications of General Relativity can be arranged so as to become important in regions with large Weyl curvature, while the behaviour is indistinguishable from GR where Weyl curvature is small. We show how the Kasner singularity of General Relativity is resolved in a particular class of modified gravity theories of this type, leading to solutions in which the fundamental connection field is regular all through the space-time. There arises a new asymptotically De Sitter region `behind' the would-be singularity, the complete solution thus being of a bounce type.

description: We consider operator systems associated to spectral truncations of tori. We show that their state spaces, when equipped with the Connes distance function, converge in the Gromov--Hausdorff sense to the space of all Borel probability measures on the torus equipped with the Monge--Kantorovich distance. A crucial role will be played by the relationship between Schur and Fourier multipliers. Along the way, we introduce the spectral Fejér kernel and show that it is a good kernel. This allows to make the estimates sufficient to prove the desired convergence of state spaces. We conclude with some structure analysis of the pertinent operator systems, including the C*-envelope and the propagation number, and with an observation about the dual operator system.

Exploring Inelasticity in the S-Matrix Bootstrap

description: The modern S-Matrix Bootstrap provides non-perturbative bounds on low-energy aspects of scattering amplitudes, leveraging the constraints of unitarity, analyticity and crossing. Typically, the solutions saturating such bounds also saturate the unitarity constraint as much as possible, meaning that they are almost exclusively elastic. This is expected to be unphysical in $d>2$ because of Aks' theorem. We explore this issue by adding inelasticity as an additional input, both using a primal approach in general dimensions which extends the usual ansatz, and establishing a dual formulation in the 2d case. We then measure the effects on the low-energy observables where we observe stronger bounds than in the standard setup.

description: We report on new types of two-component one-dimensional dark solitons (DSs) in a model of a dual-core waveguide with normal group-velocity dispersion and Kerr nonlinearity in both cores, the coupling between which is dispersive too. In the presence of the dispersive coupling, quiescent DSs supported by the zero-frequency background are always gray, being stable with the out-of-phase background, i.e., for opposite signs of the fields in the cores. On the contrary, the background with a nonzero frequency supports quiescent black solitons which may be stable for both out- and in-phase backgrounds, if the dispersive coupling is sufficiently strong. Only DSs supported by the out-of-phase background admit an extension to the case of nonzero phase mismatch between the cores.

description: Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero and $W$ be an associative affine $F$-algebra satisfying a polynomial identity (PI). The codimension sequence associated to $W$, $c_n(W)$, is known to be of the form $Θ(c n^t d^n)$, where $d$ is the well known (PI) exponent of $W$. In this paper we establish an algebraic interpretation of the polynomial part (the constant $t$) by means of Kemer's theory. In particular, we show that in case $W$ is a basic algebra, then $t = \frac{d-q}{2} + s$, where $q$ is the number of simple component in $W/J(W)$ and $s+1$ is the nilpotency degree of $J(W)$. Thus proving a conjecture of Giambruno.

description: Few risk tools have been proposed to quantify the long-term risk of diabetes among middle-aged and elderly individuals in China. The present study aimed to develop a risk tool to estimate the 20-year risk of developing diabetes while incorporating competing risks. A three-stage stratification random-clustering sampling procedure was conducted to ensure the representativeness of the Beijing elderly. We prospectively followed 1857 community residents aged 55 years and above who were free of diabetes at baseline examination. Sub-distribution hazards models were used to adjust for the competing risks of non-diabetes death. The cumulative incidence function of twenty-year diabetes event rates was 11.60% after adjusting for the competing risks of non-diabetes death. Age, body mass index, fasting plasma glucose, health status, and physical activity were selected to form the score. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.76 (95% Confidence Interval: 0.72–0.80), and the optimism-corrected AUC was 0.78 (95% Confidence Interval: 0.69–0.87) after internal validation by bootstrapping. The calibration plot showed that the actual diabetes risk was similar to the predicted risk. The cut-off value of the risk score was 19 points, marking mark the difference between low-risk and high-risk patients, which exhibited a sensitivity of 0.74 and specificity of 0.65.

description: Although cord blood transplantation has significantly extended the lifespan of mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (MPS1) patients, over 95% manifest cornea clouding with about 50% progressing to blindness. As corneal transplants are met with high rejection rates in MPS1 children, there remains no treatment to prevent blindness or restore vision in MPS1 children. Since MPS1 is caused by mutations in idua, which encodes alpha-L-iduronidase, a gene addition strategy to prevent, and potentially reverse, MPS1-associated corneal blindness was investigated. Initially, a codon optimized idua cDNA expression cassette (opt-IDUA) was validated for IDUA production and function following adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector transduction of MPS1 patient fibroblasts. Then, an AAV serotype evaluation in human cornea explants identified an AAV8 and 9 chimeric capsid (8G9) as most efficient for transduction. AAV8G9-opt-IDUA administered to human corneas via intrastromal injection demonstrated widespread transduction, which included cells that naturally produce IDUA, and resulted in a >10-fold supraphysiological increase in IDUA activity. No significant apoptosis related to AAV vectors or IDUA was observed under any conditions in both human corneas and MPS1 patient fibroblasts. The collective preclinical data demonstrate safe and efficient IDUA delivery to human corneas, which may prevent and potentially reverse MPS1-associated cornea blindness.

description: The detection of neutron(n)-capture elements in several planetary nebulae (PNe) has provided a new means of investigating s-process nucleosynthesis in low-mass stars. However, a lack of atomic data has inhibited accurate trans-iron element abundance determinations in astrophysical nebulae. Recently, photoionization and recombination data were determined for Se and Kr, the two most widely detected n-capture elements in nebular spectra. We have incorporated these new data into the photoionization code Cloudy. To test the atomic data, numerical models were computed for 15 PNe that exhibit emission lines from multiple Kr ions. We found systematic discrepancies between the predicted and observed emission lines that are most likely caused by inaccurate photoionization and recombination data. These discrepancies were removed by adjusting the Kr$^+$--Kr$^{3+}$ photoionization cross sections within their cited uncertainties and the dielectronic recombination rate coefficients by slightly larger amounts. From grids of models spanning the physical conditions encountered in PNe, we derive new, broadly applicable ionization correction factor (ICF) formulae for calculating Se and Kr elemental abundances. The ICFs were applied to our previous survey of near-infrared [Kr III] and [Se IV] emission lines in 120 PNe. The revised Se and Kr abundances are 0.1-0.3 dex lower than former estimates, with average values of [Se/(O, Ar)]=0.12$\pm$0.27 and [Kr/(O, Ar)]=0.82$\pm$0.29, but correlations previously found between their abundances and other nebular and stellar properties are unaffected. We also find a tendency for high-velocity PNe that can be associated with the Galactic thick disk to exhibit larger s-process enrichments than low-velocity PNe belonging to the thin disk population.

description: Templated electrochemical growth in nanoporous alumina can be used to fabricate nanowires with applications in magnetic storage devices, hydrogen sensors, and electrocatalysis. It is known that nanowires, grown in such templates, are strained. The strain in nanoscale materials can influence their performance in applications such as catalysts and electronic devices. However, it is not well established how the nanoporous template affects the lattice strain in the nanowires and how this develops during the growth process due to the lack of non-destructive in situ studies with spatial resolution. Here we have measured the strain and grain size of palladium nanowires in nanoporous templates during the growth process. For this we performed in situ scanning x-ray diffraction with a submicron focused x-ray beam. We found that there is a tensile strain in the nanowires and that it is more pronounced along the growth direction than in the confined direction of the templates. The tensile strain measured in situ is higher than previous ex situ reports, possibly due to hydrogen absorption during the growth. With the spatial information made possible with the focused synchrotron x-ray beam we could observe local variations in strain as a function of height. A region of local strain variation is found near the bottom of the nanowires where growth is initiated in branches at the pore bottoms. Knowledge of how nanoporous templates influence the strain of the nanowires may allow for atomic scale tailoring of the catalytic activity of such nanowires or minimizing strain to optimize electronic device performance.

description: Miscommunication and communication challenges between instructors and students represents one of the primary barriers to post-secondary learning. Students often avoid or miss opportunities to ask questions during office hours due to insecurities or scheduling conflicts. Moreover, students need to work at their own pace to have the freedom and time for the self-contemplation needed to build conceptual understanding and develop creative thinking skills. To eliminate barriers to student engagement, academic institutions need to redefine their fundamental approach to education by proposing flexible educational pathways that recognize continuous learning. To this end, we developed an AI-augmented intelligent educational assistance framework based on a power language model (i.e., GPT-3) that automatically generates course-specific intelligent assistants regardless of discipline or academic level. The virtual intelligent teaching assistant (TA) system will serve as a voice-enabled helper capable of answering course-specific questions concerning curriculum, logistics and course policies. It is envisioned to improve access to course-related information for the students and reduce logistical workload for the instructors and TAs. Its GPT-3-based knowledge discovery component as well as the generalized system architecture is presented accompanied by a methodical evaluation of the system accuracy and performance.

description: Sums of matrix elements of spin-dependent two-body momentum-independent interactions and sums of their products are calculated analytically in the basis of many-body states with given total spin --- the states built from spin and spatial wavefunctions belonging to multidimensional irreducible representations of the symmetric group, unless the total spin has the maximal allowed value. As in the first part of the series [V. A. Yurovsky, Phys. Rev. A 91, 053601 (2015)], the sum dependence on the many-body states is given by universal factors, which are independent of the Hamiltonians of non-interacting particles. The sum rules are applied to perturbative analysis of energy spectra and to calculation of two-body spin-dependent local correlations.

description: High glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) expression contributes to the acquisition of a wide range of phenotypic cancer hallmarks, and the pleiotropic oncogenic functions of GRP78 may result from its diverse subcellular distribution. Interestingly, GRP78 has been reported to be secreted from solid tumour cells, participating in cell-cell communication in the tumour microenvironment. However, the mechanism underlying this secretion remains elusive. Here, we report that GRP78 is secreted from colon cancer cells via exosomes. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors blocked GRP78 release by inducing its aggregation in the ER. Mechanistically, HDAC inhibitor treatment suppressed HDAC6 activity and led to increased GRP78 acetylation; acetylated GRP78 then bound to VPS34, a class III phosphoinositide-3 kinase, consequently preventing the sorting of GRP78 into multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Of note, we found that mimicking GRP78 acetylation by substituting the lysine at residue 633, one of the deacetylated sites of HDAC6, with a glutamine resulted in decreased GRP78 secretion and impaired tumour cell growth in vitro. Our study thus reveals a hitherto-unknown mechanism of GRP78 secretion and may also provide implications for the therapeutic use of HDAC inhibitors.

description: High-energy heavy-ion collisions have been suggested as a favorable environment for the production of $B_c$ mesons, due to a much larger abundance of charm and bottom quarks compared to elementary reactions. Motivated by recent CMS data for $B_c^+$ production in Pb-Pb($5.02\,$TeV) collisions at the LHC, we deploy a previously developed transport approach for charmonia and bottomonia to evaluate the kinetics of $B_c$ mesons throughout the fireball formed in these reactions. The main inputs to our approach are two transport parameters: the $B_c$'s reaction rate and equilibrium limit. Both quantities are determined by previous calculations via a combination of charm and bottom sectors. In-medium binding energies of $B_c$ mesons are calculated from a thermodynamic $T$-matrix with a lattice-QCD constrained potential, and figure in their inelastic reaction rates. Temperature-dependent equilibrium limits include charm- and bottom-quark fugacities based on their initial production. We compute the centrality dependence of inclusive $B_c$ production and transverse-momentum ($p_T$) spectra using two different recombination models, instantaneous coalescence and resonance recombination. The main uncertainty in the resulting nuclear modification factors, $R_{\rm AA}$, is currently associated with the $B_c$ cross section in elementary $pp$ collisions, caused by the uncertainty in the branching ratio for the $B_c^-\to J/ψμ^-\bar ν$ decay. Our results indicate a large enhancement of the $R_{\rm AA}$ at low $p_T$, with significant regeneration contributions up to $p_T\simeq\,20\,$GeV. Comparisons to CMS data are carried out but firm conclusions will require a more accurate value of the branching ratio, or alternative channels to measure the $B_c$ production in $pp$ collisions.

description: In this study we report our numerical results on finite temperature non-interacting dynamical polarization function, plasmon modes and electron energy loss function of doped single layer gapped graphene within the random phase approximation. We find that the interplay of linear energy band dispersion, chirality, bandgap and temperature endow single layer gapped graphene with strange polarizability behaviour which is a mixture of 2DEG, single layer and bilayer graphene and as a result the plasmon spectrum also manifests strikingly peculiar behaviour. The plasmon dispersion is observed to be suppressed till temperatures up to ~0.5Tf, similar to the gapless graphene case but beyond 0.5Tf a reversal in trend is seen in gapped graphene, for all values of band gap. This behaviour is also corroborated by the density plots of electron energy loss function. The opening of a small gap also generates a new undamped plasmon mode which is found to disappear at high temperatures. The plasmonic behaviour of gapped graphene is further found to be hugely influenced by the substrate on which the gapped graphene sheet rests, which signifies the need for a careful substrate selection in the making of desirable graphene based plasmonics devices.

description: Previous studies of human locomotion indicate that foot and ankle structures can interact in complex ways. The structure of the foot defines the input and output lever arms that influences the force-generating capacity of the ankle plantar flexors during push-off. At the same time, deformation of the foot may dissipate some of the mechanical energy generated by the plantar flexors during push-off. We investigated this foot-ankle interplay during walking by adding stiffness to the foot through shoes and insoles, and characterized the resulting changes in in vivo soleus muscle-tendon mechanics using ultrasonography. Added stiffness decreased energy dissipation at the foot (p < 0.001) and increased the gear ratio (i.e., ratio of ground reaction force and plantar flexor muscle lever arms) (p < 0.001). Added foot stiffness also altered soleus muscle behaviour, leading to greater peak force (p < 0.001) and reduced fascicle shortening speed (p < 0.001). Despite this shift in force-velocity behaviour, the whole-body metabolic cost during walking increased with added foot stiffness (p < 0.001). This increased metabolic cost is likely due to the added force demand on the plantar flexors, as walking on a more rigid foot/shoe surface compromises the plantar flexors’ mechanical advantage.

description: We consider a decay of a false vacuum in flux compactifications of type IIB string theory and study a catalytic effect for a phase transition induced by a new type of impurities. We concentrate on the large N dual of a D5-brane/anti-D5-brane system which has a rich vacuum structure. We show that D3-branes wrapping the 3-cycles can form a dibaryon and make a bound state with a monopole. We find that these baryon-like objects can make the lifetime of the metastable vacuum shorter.

description: We prove that given any smooth metric $γ$ and smooth positive function $H$ on $S^{2}$, there is a constant $λ> 0$, depending on $(γ, H)$, and an asymptotically flat solution $(M, g, u)$ of the static vacuum Einstein equations on $M = {\mathbb R}^{3} \setminus B^{3}$, such that the induced metric and mean curvature of $(M, g, u)$ at $\partial M$ are given by $(γ, λH)$. This gives a partial resolution of a conjecture of Bartnik.

description: Cross-cultural (from different knowledge systems) research, using participatory methodologies is gaining increasing recognition as an approach to address complex environmental management issues. Collaborations with Indigenous knowledge holders can enhance our understanding of socio-ecological systems and addresses power imbalances, issues of equality and social justice in colonised landscapes. This thesis showcases a co-research partnership between a University scientist, Elders of the remote Aboriginal community of Ngukurr in northern Australia and the Ngukurr Yangbala Rangers, a group of Indigenous young people from Ngukurr. The thesis brings together Indigenous knowledge and Western science for enhanced understanding of the importance and impacts of feral ungulates (particularly Bubalus bubalis (water buffalo)) on billabongs in northern Australia. The thesis begins by exploring the Indigenous values of billabongs and the impasse between these values and global typologies for assessing cultural values of ecosystems. This thesis then uses a cross-cultural approach to assess the eco-cultural condition of and feral ungulate impacts on billabongs frequently used by residents of Ngukurr community. The following chapter assesses the drinking water safety of billabongs through analysis of water samples for enteric pathogens Cryptosporidium and Giardia. The thesis then moves into the analysis of water buffalo faecal samples for enteric pathogens Cryptosporidium and Giardia. Finally, I provide a methodological reflection on the cross-cultural participatory action research (PAR) approach adopted. This research revealed that billabongs are part of a reciprocal human-nature ontology, that ecological condition of billabongs in the region have undergone significant transformations in people’s lifetimes and that feral ungulates are one of the primary drivers of this change. Indigenous people make decisions about water quality and drinking water safety by sensory indicators, seasonal knowledge and intuition. Furthermore, zoonotic (human infective) pathogen G. duodenalis assemblage E was found in buffalo faecal samples collected near billabongs around Ngukurr that people drink from. Importantly the PAR approach resulted in cross-cultural knowledge exchange, capacity building and facilitated the intergenerational transfer of knowledge by involving multiple generations. This thesis has implications for Indigenous use of billabongs and management of feral ungulates in northern Australia, and provides a worked example of the benefits of cross-cultural socio-ecological research.
Controllability Metrics on Networks with Linear Decision Process-type Interactions and Multiplicative Noise

description: This paper aims at the study of controllability properties and induced controllability metrics on complex networks governed by a class of (discrete time) linear decision processes with mul-tiplicative noise. The dynamics are given by a couple consisting of a Markov trend and a linear decision process for which both the "deterministic" and the noise components rely on trend-dependent matrices. We discuss approximate, approximate null and exact null-controllability. Several examples are given to illustrate the links between these concepts and to compare our results with their continuous-time counterpart (given in [16]). We introduce a class of backward stochastic Riccati difference schemes (BSRDS) and study their solvability for particular frameworks. These BSRDS allow one to introduce Gramian-like controllability metrics. As application of these metrics, we propose a minimal intervention-targeted reduction in the study of gene networks.

description: Ameloblastoma is a locally invasive benign neoplasm derived from odontogenic epithelium and presents with diverse phenotypes yet to be characterized molecularly. High recurrence rates of 50–80% with conservative treatment in some sub-types warrants radical surgical resections resulting in high morbidity. The objective of the study was to characterize the transcriptome of ameloblastoma and identify relevant genes and molecular pathways using normal odontogenic tissue (human “dentome”) for comparison. Laser capture microdissection was used to obtain neoplastic epithelial tissue from 17 tumors which were examined using the Agilent 44 k whole genome microarray. Ameloblastoma separated into 2 distinct molecular clusters that were associated with pre-secretory ameloblast and odontoblast. Within the pre-secretory cluster, 9/10 of samples were of the follicular type while 6/7 of the samples in the odontoblast cluster were of the plexiform type (p < 0.05). Common pathways altered in both clusters included cell-cycle regulation, inflammatory and MAPkinase pathways, specifically known cancer-driving genes such as TP53 and members of the MAPkinase pathways. The pre-secretory ameloblast cluster exhibited higher activation of inflammatory pathways while the odontoblast cluster showed greater disturbances in transcription regulators. Our results are suggestive of underlying inter-tumor molecular heterogeneity of ameloblastoma sub-types and have implications for the use of tailored treatment.
