Abstract:
Abstract We deliver examples of non-Gromov hyperbolic tube domains with convex bases (equipped with the Kobayashi distance). This is shown by providing a criterion on non-Gromov hyperbolicity of (non-smooth) domains. The results show the similarity of geometry of the bases of non-Gromov hyperbolic tube domains with the geometry of non-Gromov hyperbolic convex domains. A connection between the Hilbert metric of a convex domain Ω in {\mathbb{R}^{n}} with the Kobayashi distance of the tube domain over the domain Ω is also shown. Moreover, continuity properties up to the boundary of complex geodesics in tube domains with a smooth convex bounded base are also studied in detail.

Abstract:
The domains of certain types, such as Reinhardt ones, are important in different problems of theory of functions of several complex variables. For instance, any power series of several complex variables converges in the complete logarithmically convex Reinhardt domain. In this article we prove the logarithmic convexity of complete convex Reinhardt domain.

Abstract:
We investigate the concepts of linear convexity andℂ-convexity in complex Banach spaces. The main result is that anyℂ-convex domain is necessarily linearly convex. This is a complex version of the Hahn-Banach theorem, since it means the following: given aℂ-convex domainΩin the Banach spaceXand a pointp∉Ω, there is a complex hyperplane throughpthat does not intersectΩ. We also prove that linearly convex domains are holomorphically convex, and that Kergin interpolation can be performed on holomorphic mappings defined inℂ-convex domains.

Abstract:

We consider systems of complex exponential functions in spaces of square integrable functions. Some classical one-dimensional theory is reviewed, in particular, we emphasize the duality between the Riesz bases of complex exponential functions in $L^2$-spaces and complete interpolating sequences in $PW^2$-spaces of entire functions of exponential type. Basis properties for $L^2$-spaces over planar convex domains are then studied in detail. The convex domain in question is shown to be crucial for what basis properties the corresponding $L^2$-space possesses. We explain some results related to Fuglede's conjecture about existence of orthonormal bases and then a result by Lyubarskii and Rashkovskii regarding Riesz bases for $L^2$-spaces over convex polygons, symmetric with respect to the origin. Finally, we make a modest attempt to apply the techniques by Lyubarskii and Rashkovskii combined with approximation of plurisubharmonic functions using logarithms of moduli of entire functions, to construct a complete system of exponential functions in the space of square integrable functions over a disk. This work is not completed yet.

Abstract:
The Gauss circle problem in classical number theory concerns the estimation of N(x) = { (m1;m2) in ZxZ : m1^2 + m2^2 <= x }, the number of integer lattice points inside a circle of radius sqrt(x). Gauss showed that P(x) = N(x)- pi * x satisfi es P(x) = O(sqrt(x)). Later Hardy and Landau independently proved that P(x) = Omega_(x1=4(log x)1=4). It is conjectured that inf{e in R : P(x) = O(x^e )}= 1/4. I. K atai showed that the integral from 0 to X of |P(x)|^2 dx = X^(3/2) + O(X(logX)^2). Similar results to those of the circle have been obtained for regions D in R^2 which contain the origin and whose boundary dD satis fies suff cient smoothness conditions. Denote by P_D(x) the similar error term to P(x) only for the domain D. W. G. Nowak showed that, under appropriate conditions on dD, P_D(x) = Omega_(x1=4(log x)1=4) and that the integral from 0 to X of |P_D(x)|^2 dx = O(X^(3/2)). A result similar to Nowak's mean square estimate is given in the case where only "primitive" lattice points, {(m1;m2) in Z^2 : gcd(m1;m2) = 1 }, are counted in a region D, on assumption of the Riemann Hypothesis.

Abstract:
The work of this thesis covers the Maximum Subarray Problem (MSP) from a new perspective. Research done previously and current methods of finding MSP include using the rectangular shape for finding the maximum sum or gain. The rectangular shape region used previously is not flexible enough to cover various data distributions. This research suggested using the convex shape, which is expected to have optimised and efficient results. The steps to build towards using the proposed convex shape in the context of MSP are as follows: studying the available research in-depth to extract the potential guidelines for this thesis research; implementing an appropriate convex shape algorithm; generalising the main algorithm (based on dynamic programming) to find the second maximum sum, the third maximum sum and up to Kth maximum sum; and finally conducting experiments to evaluate the outcomes of the algorithms in terms of the maximum gain, time complexity, and the running time. In this research, the following findings were achieved: one of the achievements is presenting an efficient algorithm, which determines the boundaries of the convex shape while having the same time complexity as other existing algorithms (the prefix sum was used to speed up the convex shape algorithm in finding the maximum sum). Besides the first achievement, the algorithm was generalized to find up to the Kth maximum sum. Finding the Kth maximum convex sum was shown to be useful in many applications, one of these (based on a study with the cooperation of Christchurch Hospital in New Zealand) is accurately and efficiently locating brain tumours. Beside this application, the research findings present new approaches to applying MSP algorithms in real life applications, such as data mining, computer vision, astronomy, economics, chemistry, and medicine.

Abstract:
Applications of accuracy certificates for problems with convex structure   This dissertation addresses the efficient generation and potential applications of accuracy certificates in the framework of “black-box-represented” convex optimization problems - convex problems where the objective and the constraints are represented by  “black boxes” which, given on input a value x of the argument, somehow (perhaps in a fashion unknown to the user) provide on output the values and the derivatives of the objective and the constraints at x. The main body of the dissertation can be split into three parts.  In the first part, we provide our background --- state of the art of the theory of accuracy certificates for black-box-represented convex optimization. In the second part, we extend the toolbox of black-box-oriented convex optimization algorithms with accuracy certificates by equipping with these certificates a state-of-the-art algorithm for large-scale nonsmooth black-box-represented problems with convex structure, specifically, the Non-Euclidean Restricted Memory Level (NERML) method. In the third part, we present several novel academic applications of accuracy certificates. The dissertation is organized as follows: In Chapter 1, we motivate our research goals and present a detailed summary of our results. In Chapter 2, we outline the relevant background, specifically, describe four generic black-box-represented generic problems with convex structure (Convex Minimization, Convex-Concave Saddle Point, Convex Nash Equilibrium, and Variational Inequality with Monotone Operator), and outline the existing theory of accuracy certificates for these problems. In Chapter 3, we develop techniques for equipping with on-line accuracy certificates the state-of-the-art NERML algorithm for large-scale nonsmooth problems with convex structure, both in the cases when the domain of the problem is a simple solid and in the case when the domain is given by Separation oracle. In Chapter 4, we develop  several novel academic applications of accuracy certificates, primarily to (a) efficient certifying emptiness of the intersection of finitely many solids given by Separation oracles, and (b) building efficient algorithms for convex minimization over solids given by Linear Optimization oracles (both precise and approximate). In Chapter 5, we apply accuracy certificates to efficient decomposition of “well structured” convex-concave saddle point problems, with applications to computationally attractive decomposition of a large-scale LP program with the constraint matrix which becomes block-diagonal after eliminating a relatively small number of possibly dense columns (corresponding to “linking variables”) and possibly dense rows (corresponding to “linking constraints”).

Abstract:
The work selects a specific issue from the numerical analysis of optimal control problems. We investigate a linear-quadratic optimal control problem based on a partial differential equation on 3-dimensional non-convex domains. Based on efficient solution methods for the partial differential equation an algorithm known from control theory is applied. Now the main objectives are to prove that there is no degradation in efficiency and to verify the result by numerical experiments. We describe a solution method which has second order convergence, although the intermediate control approximations are piecewise constant functions. This superconvergence property is gained from a special projection operator which generates a piecewise constant approximation that has a supercloseness property, from a sufficiently graded mesh which compensates the singularities introduced by the non-convex domain, and from a discretization condition which eliminates some pathological cases. Both isotropic and anisotropic discretizations are investigated and similar superconvergence properties are proven. A model problem is presented and important results from the regularity theory of solutions to partial differential equation in non-convex domains have been collected in the first chapters. Then a collection of statements from the finite element analysis and corresponding numerical solution strategies is given. Here we show newly developed tools regarding error estimates and projections into finite element spaces. These tools are necessary to achieve the main results. Known fundamental statements from control theory are applied to the given model problems and certain conditions on the discretization are defined. Then we describe the implementation used to solve the model problems and present all computed results.

Full text
Abstract:
Innate immune responses in animals and plants involve receptors that recognize microbe-associated molecules. In plants, one set of this defense system is characterized by large families of TIR–nucleotide binding site–leucine-rich repeat (TIR-NBS-LRR) resistance genes. The direct interaction between plant proteins harboring the TIR domain with proteins that transmit and facilitate a signaling pathway has yet to be shown. The Arabidopsis genome encodes TIR-domain containing genes that lack NBS and LRR whose functions are unknown. Here we investigated the functional role of such protein, TLW1 (TIR LECTIN WOUNDRESPONSIVE1). The TLW1 gene encodes a protein with two domains: a TIR domain linked to a lectin-containing domain. Our specific aim in this proposal was to examine the ramifications of the TL1-glycan interaction by; A) The functional characterization of TL1 activity in the context of plant wound response and B) Examine the hypothesis that wounding induced specific polysaccharides and examine them as candidates for TL-1 interactive glycan compounds. The Weizmann group showed TLW1 transcripts are rapidly induced by wounding in a JA-independent pathway and T-DNA-tagged tlw1 mutants that lack TLW1 transcripts, fail to initiate the full systemic wound response. Transcriptome methodology analysis was set up and transcriptome analyses indicates a two-fold reduced level of JA-responsive but not JA-independent transcripts. The TIR domain of TLW1 was found to interact directly with the KAT2/PED1 gene product responsible for the final b-oxidation steps in peroxisomal-basedJA biosynthesis. To identify potential binding target(s) of TL1 in plant wound response, the CCRC group first expressed recombinant TL1 in bacterial cells and optimized conditions for the protein expression. TL1 was most highly expressed in ArcticExpress cell line. Different types of extraction buffers and extraction methods were used to prepare plant extracts for TL1 binding assay. Optimized condition for glycan labeling was determined, and 2-aminobenzamide was used to label plant extracts. Sensitivity of MALDI and LC-MS using standard glycans. THAP (2,4,6- Trihydroxyacetophenone) showed minimal background peaks at positive mode of MALDI, however, it was insensitive with a minimum detection level of 100 ng. Using LC-MS, sensitivity was highly increased enough to detect 30 pmol concentration. However, patterns of total glycans displayed no significant difference between different extraction conditions when samples were separated with Dionex ICS-2000 ion chromatography system. Transgenic plants over-expressing lectin domains were generated to obtain active lectin domain in plant cells. Insertion of the overexpression construct into the plant genome was confirmed by antibiotic selection and genomic DNA PCR. However, RT-PCR analysis was not able to detect increased level of the transcripts. Binding ability of azelaic acid to recombinant TL1. Azelaic acid was detected in GST-TL1 elution fraction, however, DHB matrix has the same mass in background signals, which needs to be further tested on other matrices. The major findings showed the importance of TLW1 in regulating wound response. The findings demonstrate completely novel and unexpected TIR domain interactions and reveal a control nexus and mechanism that contributes to the propagation of wound responses in Arabidopsis. The implications are to our understanding of the function of TIR domains and to the notion that early molecular events occur systemically within minutes of a plant sustaining a wound. A WEB site (http://genome.weizmann.ac.il/hormonometer/) was set up that enables scientists to interact with a collated plant hormone database.

Abstract:
Two studies were conducted to examine how individual interest predicts interactions with domain content and subsequent free-choice exploration. Particular focus was on learners’ acquisition of knowledge and identification of content that triggered curiosity. College student participants reported their individual interest, learned about a topic in ecology (Study 1, N = 85) and astronomy (Study 2, N = 184), responded to prompts for memory of the learning content and curiosity questions, and then had the opportunity to explore additional content related to the topic. In both studies individual interest interacted with whether students’ curiosity was triggered by particular content. In academic domains, individual interest in conjunction with curiosity may be the best predictor of continued behavioral exploration. The results are discussed in the context of the four-phase model of interest development.

Lutz, Carsten, and Maja Miličić. Description Logics with Concrete Domains and Functional Dependencies. Technische Universität Dresden, 2004. http://dx.doi.org/10.25368/2022.143.

Abstract:
Description Logics (DLs) with concrete domains are a useful tool in many applications. To further enhance the expressive power of such DLs, it has been proposed to add database-style key constraints. Up to now, however, only uniqueness constraints have been considered in this context, thus neglecting the second fundamental family of key constraints: functional dependencies. In this paper, we consider the basic DL with concrete domains ALC(D), extend it with functional dependencies, and analyze the impact of this extension on the decidability and complexity of reasoning. Though intuitively the expressivity of functional dependencies seems weaker than that of uniqueness constraints, we are able to show that the former have a similarly severe impact on the computational properties: reasoning is undecidable in the general case, and NExpTime-complete in some slightly restricted variants of our logic.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper proposes a dynamic conceptual framework – the edu-workscape – for understanding how rural children in sub-Saharan Africa navigate three key gendered social arenas: the household, school and workplaces. Focusing on school, in particular, the paper highlights the violence, harm and labour that occur there, and argues that learning, work and harm co-exist across all three institutional domains, and in context, and should therefore be considered holistically.

Kibler, Amanda, René Pyatt, Jason Greenberg Motamedi, and Ozen Guven. Key Competencies in Linguistically and Culturally Sustaining Mentoring and Instruction for Clinically-based Grow-Your-Own Teacher Education Programs. Oregon State University, May 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.5399/osu/1147.

Full text
Abstract:
Grow-Your-Own (GYO) Teacher Education programs that aim to diversify and strengthen the teacher workforce must provide high-quality learning experiences that support the success and retention of Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) teacher candidates and bilingual teacher candidates. Such work requires a holistic and systematic approach to conceptualizing instruction and mentoring that is both linguistically and culturally sustaining. To guide this work in the Master of Arts in Teaching in Clinically Based Elementary program at Oregon State University’s College of Education, we conducted a review of relevant literature and frameworks related to linguistically responsive and/or sustaining teaching or mentoring practices. We developed a set of ten mentoring competencies for school-based cooperating/clinical teachers and university supervisors. They are grouped into the domains of: Facilitating Linguistically and Culturally Sustaining Instruction, Engaging with Mentees, Recognizing and Interrupting Inequitable Practices and Policies, and Advocating for Equity. We also developed a set of twelve instructional competencies for teacher candidates as well as the university instructors who teach them. The instructional competencies are grouped into the domains of: Engaging in Self-reflection and Taking Action, Learning About Students and Re-visioning Instruction, Creating Community, and Facilitating Language and Literacy Development in Context. We are currently operationalizing these competencies to develop and conduct surveys and focus groups with various GYO stakeholders for the purposes of ongoing program evaluation and improvement, as well as further refinement of these competencies.

Full text
Abstract:
The maps and tables presented here represent potential variability of projected climate change across the conterminous United States during three 30-year periods in this century and emphasizes the importance of evaluating multiple signals of change across large spatial domains. Maps of growing degree days, plant hardiness zones, heat zones, and cumulative drought severity depict the potential for markedly shifting conditions and highlight regions where changes may be multifaceted across these metrics. In addition to the maps, the potential change in these climate variables are summarized in tables according to the seven regions of the fourth National Climate Assessment to provide additional regional context. Viewing these data collectively further emphasizes the potential for novel climatic space under future projections of climate change and signals the wide disparity in these conditions based on relatively near-term human decisions of curtailing (or not) greenhouse gas emissions.
