Carbon monoxide molecules are oriented by combining one-colour and delayed two-colour non-resonant femtosecond laser pulses. High-harmonic generation is used to probe the oriented wave-packet dynamics and reveals that a very high degree of orientation (Nup/Ntotal = 0.73–0.82) is achieved. We further extend this approach to orienting carbonyl sulphide molecules. We show that the present two-pulse scheme selectively enhances orientation created by the hyperpolarizability interaction whereas the ionization-depletion mechanism plays no role. We further control and optimize orientation through the delay between the one- and two-colour pump pulses. Finally, we demonstrate a complementary encoding of electronic-structure features, such as shape resonances, in the even- and odd-harmonic spectrum. The achieved progress makes two-pulse field-free orientation an attractive tool for a broad class of time-resolved measurements.","lang":"eng"}],"keyword":["Condensed Matter Physics","Atomic and Molecular Physics","and Optics"],"external_id":{"arxiv":["1311.3923"]},"arxiv":1,"intvolume":"        47","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1361-6455"],"issn":["0953-4075"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2014","extern":"1","doi":"10.1088/0953-4075/47/12/124030","citation":{"ama":"Kraus PM, Baykusheva DR, Wörner HJ.

In order to gain insight into the biophysical mechanism(s) underlying the tissue morphogenesis we studied the spreading of an epithelium during the early development of the zebrafish embryo. In zebrafish epiboly the enveloping cell layer (EVL), a simple squamous epithelium, spreads over the yolk cell to completely engulf it at the end of gastrulation. Previous studies have proposed that an actomyosin ring forming within the yolk syncytial layer (YSL) acts as purse string that through constriction along its circumference pulls on the margin of the EVL. Direct biophysical evidence for this hypothesis has however been missing. The aim of the thesis was to understand how the actomyosin ring may generate pulling forces onto the EVL and what cellular mechanism(s) may facilitate the spreading of the epithelium. Using laser ablation to measure cortical tension within the actomyosin ring we found an anisotropic tension distribution, which was highest along the circumference of the ring. However the low degree of anisotropy was incompatible with the actomyosin ring functioning as a purse string only. Additionally, we observed retrograde cortical flow from vegetal parts of the ring into the EVL margin. Interpreting the experimental data using a theoretical distribution that models  the tissues as active viscous gels led us to proposen that the actomyosin ring has a twofold contribution to EVL epiboly. It not only acts as a purse string through constriction along its circumference, but in addition constriction along the width of the ring generates pulling forces through friction-resisted cortical flow. Moreover, when rendering the purse string mechanism unproductive EVL epiboly proceeded normally indicating that the flow-friction mechanism is sufficient to drive the process. Aiming to understand what cellular mechanism(s) may facilitate the spreading of the epithelium we found that tension-oriented EVL cell divisions limit tissue anisotropy by releasing tension along the division axis and promote epithelial spreading. Notably, EVL cells undergo ectopic cell fusion in conditions in which oriented-cell division is impaired or the epithelium is mechanically challenged. Taken together our study of EVL epiboly suggests a novel mechanism of force generation for actomyosin rings through friction-resisted cortical flow and highlights the importance of tension-oriented cell divisions in epithelial morphogenesis.","lang":"eng"}],"supervisor":[{"full_name":"Heisenberg, Carl-Philipp J","orcid":"0000-0002-0912-4566","id":"39427864-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Carl-Philipp J","last_name":"Heisenberg"}],"page":"91","alternative_title":["IST Austria Thesis"]},{"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"day":"01","year":"2014","status":"public","title":"Evolution of a fungal pathogen towards individual versus social immunity in ants","_id":"1404","type":"dissertation","citation":{"ama":"Stock M.

Pathogens of social insects need to adapt towards disease defences at two levels: 1) individual immunity of each colony member consisting of behavioural defence strategies as well as humoral and cellular immune responses and 2) social immunity that is collectively performed by all group members comprising behavioural, physiological and organisational defence strategies.\r\n\r\nTo disentangle the selection pressure on pathogens by the collective versus individual level of disease defence in social insects, we performed an evolution experiment using the Argentine Ant, Linepithema humile, as a host and a mixture of the general insect pathogenic fungus Metarhizium spp. (6 strains) as a pathogen. We allowed pathogen evolution over 10 serial host passages to two different evolution host treatments: (1) only individual host immunity in a single host treatment, and (2) simultaneously acting individual and social immunity in a social host treatment, in which an exposed ant was accompanied by two untreated nestmates.\r\n\r\nBefore starting the pathogen evolution experiment, the 6 Metarhizium spp. strains were characterised concerning conidiospore size killing rates in singly and socially reared ants, their competitiveness under coinfecting conditions and their influence on ant behaviour. We analysed how the ancestral atrain mixture changed in conidiospere size, killing rate and strain composition dependent on host treatment (single or social hosts) during 10 passages and found that killing rate and conidiospere size of the pathogen increased under both evolution regimes, but different depending on host treatment.\r\n\r\nTesting the evolved strain mixtures that evolved under either the single or social host treatment under both single and social current rearing conditions in a full factorial design experiment revealed that the additional collective defences in insect societies add new selection pressure for their coevolving pathogens that compromise their ability to adapt to its host at the group level. To our knowledge, this is the first study directly measuring the influence of social immunity on pathogen evolution."}],"publisher":"IST Austria","publist_id":"5803","date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:50:30Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publication_status":"published","page":"101","alternative_title":["IST Austria Thesis"],"supervisor":[{"full_name":"Cremer, Sylvia M","orcid":"0000-0002-2193-3868","last_name":"Cremer","id":"2F64EC8C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Sylvia M"}]},{"quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"apa":"Stahl, E., Martin, T., Praetorius, F.

Nowadays, systems typically consist of multiple interacting components and, due to their complexity, testing presents a considerable portion of the effort and cost in the design process. Exploiting the compositional structure of system specifications can considerably reduce the effort in model-based testing. Moreover, inferring properties about the system from testing its individual components allows the designer to reduce the amount of integration testing.\r\nIn this paper, we study compositional properties of the IOCO-testing theory. We propose a new approach to composition and hiding operations, inspired by contract-based design and interface theories. These operations preserve behaviors that are compatible under composition and hiding, and prune away incompatible ones. The resulting specification characterizes the input sequences for which the unit testing of components is sufficient to infer the correctness of component integration without the need for further tests. We provide a methodology that uses these results to minimize integration testing effort, but also to detect potential weaknesses in specifications. While we focus on asynchronous models and the IOCO conformance relation, the resulting methodology can be applied to a broader class of systems.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"IST Austria","date_updated":"2023-02-23T10:31:07Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publication_status":"published","_id":"5411","type":"technical_report","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:46Z","doi":"10.15479/AT:IST-2014-148-v2-1","citation":{"apa":"Daca, P., Henzinger, T.

In this paper we adapt a quantitative framework, called model measuring, to the hybrid systems domain. The model-measuring problem asks, given a model M and a specification, what is the maximal distance such that all models within that distance from M satisfy (or violate) the specification. A distance function on models is given as part of the input of the problem. Distances, especially related to continuous behaviors are more natural in the hybrid case than the discrete case. We are interested in distances represented by monotonic hybrid automata, a hybrid counterpart of (discrete) weighted automata, whose recognized timed languages are monotone (w.r.t. inclusion) in the values of parameters.The contributions of this paper are twofold. First, we give sufficient conditions under which the model-measuring problem can be solved.

While the decision problem for three-player games with a coalition of the first and second players against the third player is undecidable, we present a decidability result for partial-observation games where the first and third player are in a coalition against the second player, thus where the second player is adversarial but weaker due to partial-observation. We establish tight complexity bounds in the case where player 1 is less informed than player 2, namely 2-EXPTIME-completeness for parity objectives. The symmetric case of player 1 more informed than player 2 is much more complicated, and we show that already in the case where player 1 has perfect observation, memory of size non-elementary is necessary in general for reachability objectives, and the problem is decidable for safety and reachability objectives. Our results have tight connections with partial-observation stochastic games for which we derive new complexity results."}],"month":"03","date_published":"2014-03-22T00:00:00Z","file":[{"creator":"system","checksum":"1d6958aa60050e1c3e932c6e5f34c39f","file_size":328253,"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:49Z","date_created":"2018-12-12T11:53:07Z","access_level":"open_access","file_id":"5468","file_name":"IST-2014-176-v1+1_icalp_14.pdf","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publication_status":"published","publisher":"IST Austria","date_updated":"2023-02-23T10:30:58Z","citation":{"ama":"Chatterjee K, Doyen L. <i>Games with a Weak Adversary</i>.

The structure of the population affects the outcome of the evolutionary process. Evolutionary graph theory is a powerful approach to study this phenomenon. There are two graphs. The interaction graph specifies who interacts with whom in the context of evolution. The replacement graph specifies who competes with whom for reproduction. The vertices of the two graphs are the same, and each vertex corresponds to an individual. A key quantity is the fixation probability of a new mutant. It is defined as the probability that a newly introduced mutant (on a single vertex) generates a lineage of offspring which eventually takes over the entire population of resident individuals. The basic computational questions are as follows: (i) the qualitative question asks whether the fixation probability is positive; and (ii) the quantitative approximation question asks for an approximation of the fixation probability. Our main results are: (1) We show that the qualitative question is NP-complete and the quantitative approximation question is #P-hard in the special case when the interaction and the replacement graphs coincide and even with the restriction that the resident individuals do not reproduce (which corresponds to an invading population taking over an empty structure).

The optimization objective we study asks to minimize the expected total cost till the target set is reached, while ensuring that the target set is reached almost-surely (with probability 1). We show that for integer costs approximating the optimal cost is undecidable. For positive costs, our results are as follows: (i) we establish matching lower and upper bounds for the optimal cost and the bound is double exponential; (ii) we show that the problem of approximating the optimal cost is decidable and present approximation algorithms developing on the existing algorithms for POMDPs with finite-horizon objectives. While the worst-case running time of our algorithm is double exponential, we also present efficient stopping criteria for the algorithm and show experimentally that it performs well in many examples of interest."}],"month":"09","date_published":"2014-09-09T00:00:00Z","file":[{"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:51Z","file_size":2725429,"checksum":"b9668a70d53c550b3cd64f0c77451c3d","creator":"system","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","file_name":"IST-2014-307-v1+1_main.pdf","file_id":"5478","access_level":"open_access","date_created":"2018-12-12T11:53:17Z"},{"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:51Z","creator":"dernst","file_size":117,"checksum":"808ada1dddecc48ca041526fcc6a9efd","relation":"main_file","file_name":"IST-2014-307-v1+2_authors.txt","content_type":"text/plain","access_level":"closed","date_created":"2019-04-16T14:16:12Z","file_id":"6322"}]},{"related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","id":"1732","relation":"later_version"},{"id":"5424","status":"public","relation":"earlier_version"}]},"author":[{"full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Krishnendu","last_name":"Chatterjee"},{"full_name":"Chmelik, Martin","id":"3624234E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Martin","last_name":"Chmelik"},{"full_name":"Gupta, Raghav","first_name":"Raghav","last_name":"Gupta"},{"last_name":"Kanodia","first_name":"Ayush","full_name":"Kanodia, Ayush"}],"department":[{"_id":"KrCh"}],"doi":"10.15479/AT:IST-2014-305-v2-1","citation":{"mla":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu, et al. <i>Qualitative Analysis of POMDPs with Temporal Logic Specifications for Robotics Applications</i>.
