text: 'Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient determining plant growth, development
and affecting agricultural productivity. Root, as a hub that perceives and integrates
local and systemic signals on the plant’s external and endogenous nitrogen resources,
communicates with other plant organs to consolidate their physiology and development
in accordance with actual nitrogen balance. Over the last years, numerous studies
demonstrated that these comprehensive developmental adaptations rely on the interaction
between pathways controlling nitrogen homeostasis and hormonal networks acting
globally in the plant body. However, molecular insights into how the information
about the nitrogen status is translated through hormonal pathways into specific
developmental output are lacking. In my work, I addressed so far poorly understood
mechanisms underlying root-to-shoot communication that lead to a rapid re-adjustment
of shoot growth and development after nitrate provision. Applying a combination
of molecular, cell, and developmental biology approaches, genetics and grafting
experiments as well as hormonal analytics, I identified and characterized an unknown
molecular framework orchestrating shoot development with a root nitrate sensory
system. '

text: Bacteria-host interactions represent a continuous trade-off between benefit
and risk. Thus, the host immune response is faced with a non-trivial problem –
accommodate beneficial commensals and remove harmful pathogens. This is especially
difficult as molecular patterns, such as lipopolysaccharide or specific surface
organelles such as pili, are conserved in both, commensal and pathogenic bacteria.
Type 1 pili, tightly regulated by phase variation, are considered an important
virulence factor of pathogenic bacteria as they facilitate invasion into host
cells. While invasion represents a de facto passive mechanism for pathogens to
escape the host immune response, we demonstrate a fundamental role of type 1 pili
as active modulators of the innate and adaptive immune response.

text: Those who aim to devise new materials with desirable properties usually examine
present methods first. However, they will find out that some approaches can exist
only conceptually without high chances to become practically useful. It seems
that a numerical technique called automatic differentiation together with increasing
supply of computational accelerators will soon shift many methods of the material
design from the category ”unimaginable” to the category ”expensive but possible”.
Approach we suggest is not an exception. Our overall goal is to have an efficient
and generalizable approach allowing to solve inverse design problems. In this
thesis we scratch its surface. We consider jammed systems of identical particles.
And ask ourselves how the shape of those particles (or the parameters codifying
it) may affect mechanical properties of the system. An indispensable part of reaching
the answer is an appropriate particle parametrization. We come up with a simple,
yet generalizable and purposeful scheme for it. Using our generalizable shape
parameterization, we simulate the formation of a solid composed of pentagonal-like
particles and measure anisotropy in the resulting elastic response. Through automatic
differentiation techniques, we directly connect the shape parameters with the
elastic response. Interestingly, for our system we find that less isotropic particles
lead to a more isotropic elastic response. Together with other results known about
our method it seems that it can be successfully generalized for different inverse
design problems.

text: "The scalability of concurrent data structures and distributed algorithms
strongly depends on\r\nreducing the contention for shared resources and the costs
of synchronization and communication. We show how such cost reductions can be
attained by relaxing the strict consistency conditions required by sequential
implementations. In the first part of the thesis, we consider relaxation in the
context of concurrent data structures. Specifically, in data structures \r\nsuch
as priority queues, imposing strong semantics renders scalability impossible,
since a correct implementation of the remove operation should return only the
element with highest priority. Intuitively, attempting to invoke remove operations
concurrently creates a race condition. This bottleneck can be circumvented by
relaxing semantics of the affected data structure, thus allowing removal of the
elements which are no longer required to have the highest priority. We prove that
the randomized implementations of relaxed data structures provide provable guarantees
on the priority of the removed elements even under concurrency. Additionally,
we show that in some cases the relaxed data structures can be used to scale the
classical algorithms which are usually implemented with the exact ones. In the
second part, we study parallel variants of the stochastic gradient descent (SGD)
algorithm, which distribute computation among the multiple processors, thus reducing
the running time. Unfortunately, in order for standard parallel SGD to succeed,
each processor has to maintain a local copy of the necessary model parameter,
which is identical to the local copies of other processors; the overheads from
this perfect consistency in terms of communication and synchronization can negate
the speedup gained by distributing the computation. We show that the consistency
conditions required by SGD can be relaxed, allowing the algorithm to be more
flexible in terms of tolerating quantized communication, asynchrony, or even crash
faults, while its convergence remains asymptotically the same."

text: The brain efficiently performs nonlinear computations through its intricate
networks of spiking neurons, but how this is done remains elusive. While nonlinear
computations can be implemented successfully in spiking neural networks, this
requires supervised training and the resulting connectivity can be hard to interpret.
In contrast, the required connectivity for any computation in the form of a linear
dynamical system can be directly derived and understood with the spike coding
network (SCN) framework. These networks also have biologically realistic activity
patterns and are highly robust to cell death. Here we extend the SCN framework
to directly implement any polynomial dynamical system, without the need for training.
This results in networks requiring a mix of synapse types (fast, slow, and multiplicative),
which we term multiplicative spike coding networks (mSCNs). Using mSCNs, we demonstrate
how to directly derive the required connectivity for several nonlinear dynamical
systems. We also show how to carry out higher-order polynomials with coupled networks
that use only pair-wise multiplicative synapses, and provide expected numbers
of connections for each synapse type. Overall, our work demonstrates a novel method
for implementing nonlinear computations in spiking neural networks, while keeping
the attractive features of standard SCNs (robustness, realistic activity patterns,
and interpretable connectivity). Finally, we discuss the biological plausibility
of our approach, and how the high accuracy and robustness of the approach may
be of interest for neuromorphic computing.

text: "Most real-world flows are multiphase, yet we know little about them compared
to their single-phase counterparts. Multiphase flows are more difficult to investigate
as their dynamics occur in large parameter space and involve complex phenomena
such as preferential concentration, turbulence modulation, non-Newtonian rheology,
etc. Over the last few decades, experiments in particle-laden flows have taken
a back seat in favour of ever-improving computational resources. However, computers
are still not powerful enough to simulate a real-world fluid with millions of
finite-size particles. Experiments are essential not only because they offer a
reliable way to investigate real-world multiphase flows but also because they
serve to validate numerical studies and steer the research in a relevant direction.
In this work, we have experimentally investigated particle-laden flows in pipes,
and in particular, examined the effect of particles on the laminar-turbulent transition
and the drag scaling in turbulent flows.\r\n\r\nFor particle-laden pipe flows,
an earlier study [Matas et al., 2003] reported how the sub-critical (i.e., hysteretic)
transition that occurs via localised turbulent structures called puffs is affected
by the addition of particles. In this study, in addition to this known transition,
we found a super-critical transition to a globally fluctuating state with increasing
particle concentration. At the same time, the Newtonian-type transition via puffs
is delayed to larger Reynolds numbers. At an even higher concentration, only the
globally fluctuating state is found. The dynamics of particle-laden flows are
hence determined by two competing instabilities that give rise to three flow regimes:
Newtonian-type turbulence at low, a particle-induced globally fluctuating state
at high, and a coexistence state at intermediate concentrations.\r\n\r\nThe effect
of particles on turbulent drag is ambiguous, with studies reporting drag reduction,
no net change, and even drag increase. The ambiguity arises because, in addition
to particle concentration, particle shape, size, and density also affect the net
drag. Even similar particles might affect the flow dissimilarly in different Reynolds
number and concentration ranges. In the present study, we explored a wide range
of both Reynolds number and concentration, using spherical as well as cylindrical
particles. We found that the spherical particles do not reduce drag while the
cylindrical particles are drag-reducing within a specific Reynolds number interval.
The interval strongly depends on the particle concentration and the relative size
of the pipe and particles. Within this interval, the magnitude of drag reduction
reaches a maximum. These drag reduction maxima appear to fall onto a distinct
power-law curve irrespective of the pipe diameter and particle concentration,
and this curve can be considered as the maximum drag reduction asymptote for a
given fibre shape. Such an asymptote is well known for polymeric flows but had
not been identified for particle-laden flows prior to this work."

text: This thesis is the result of the research carried out by the author during
his PhD at IST Austria between 2017 and 2021. It mainly focuses on the Fröhlich
polaron model, specifically to its regime of strong coupling. This model, which
is rigorously introduced and discussed in the introduction, has been of great
interest in condensed matter physics and field theory for more than eighty years.
It is used to describe an electron interacting with the atoms of a solid material
(the strength of this interaction is modeled by the presence of a coupling constant
α in the Hamiltonian of the system). The particular regime examined here, which
is mathematically described by considering the limit α →∞, displays many interesting
features related to the emergence of classical behavior, which allows for a simplified
effective description of the system under analysis. The properties, the range
of validity and a quantitative analysis of the precision of such classical approximations
are the main object of the present work. We specify our investigation to the study
of the ground state energy of the system, its dynamics and its effective mass.
For each of these problems, we provide in the introduction an overview of the
previously known results and a detailed account of the original contributions
by the author.

text: "The quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a prospective near-term
quantum algorithm due to its modest circuit depth and promising benchmarks. However,
an external parameter optimization required in the QAOA could become a performance
bottleneck. This motivates studies of the optimization landscape and search for
heuristic ways of parameter initialization. In this work we visualize the optimization
landscape of the QAOA applied to the MaxCut problem on random graphs, demonstrating
that random initialization of the QAOA is prone to converging to local minima
with suboptimal performance. We introduce the initialization of QAOA parameters
based on the Trotterized quantum annealing (TQA) protocol, parameterized by the
Trotter time step. We find that the TQA initialization allows to circumvent\r\nthe
issue of false minima for a broad range of time steps, yielding the same performance
as the best result out of an exponentially scaling number of random initializations.
Moreover, we demonstrate that the optimal value of the time step coincides with
the point of proliferation of Trotter errors in quantum annealing. Our results
suggest practical ways of initializing QAOA protocols on near-term quantum devices
and reveal new connections between QAOA and quantum annealing."

text: Triangle mesh-based simulations are able to produce satisfying animations
of knitted and woven cloth; however, they lack the rich geometric detail of yarn-level
simulations. Naive texturing approaches do not consider yarn-level physics, while
full yarn-level simulations may become prohibitively expensive for large garments.
We propose a method to animate yarn-level cloth geometry on top of an underlying
deforming mesh in a mechanics-aware fashion. Using triangle strains to interpolate
precomputed yarn geometry, we are able to reproduce effects such as knit loops
tightening under stretching. In combination with precomputed mesh animation or
real-time mesh simulation, our method is able to animate yarn-level cloth in real-time
at large scales.

text: "Automated contract tracing aims at supporting manual contact tracing during
pandemics by alerting users of encounters with infected people. There are currently
many proposals for protocols (like the “decentralized” DP-3T and PACT or the “centralized”
ROBERT and DESIRE) to be run on mobile phones, where the basic idea is to regularly
broadcast (using low energy Bluetooth) some values, and at the same time store
(a function of) incoming messages broadcasted by users in their proximity. In
the existing proposals one can trigger false positives on a massive scale by an
“inverse-Sybil” attack, where a large number of devices (malicious users or hacked
phones) pretend to be the same user, such that later, just a single person needs
to be diagnosed (and allowed to upload) to trigger an alert for all users who
were in proximity to any of this large group of devices.\r\n\r\nWe propose the
first protocols that do not succumb to such attacks assuming the devices involved
in the attack do not constantly communicate, which we observe is a necessary assumption.
The high level idea of the protocols is to derive the values to be broadcasted
by a hash chain, so that two (or more) devices who want to launch an inverse-Sybil
attack will not be able to connect their respective chains and thus only one of
them will be able to upload. Our protocols also achieve security against replay,
belated replay, and one of them even against relay attacks."

text: 'Extending on ideas of Lewin, Lieb, and Seiringer [Phys. Rev. B 100, 035127
(2019)], we present a modified “floating crystal” trial state for jellium (also
known as the classical homogeneous electron gas) with density equal to a characteristic
function. This allows us to show that three definitions of the jellium energy
coincide in dimensions d ≥ 2, thus extending the result of Cotar and Petrache
[“Equality of the Jellium and uniform electron gas next-order asymptotic terms
for Coulomb and Riesz potentials,” arXiv: 1707.07664 (2019)] and Lewin, Lieb,
and Seiringer [Phys. Rev. B 100, 035127 (2019)] that the three definitions coincide
in dimension d ≥ 3. We show that the jellium energy is also equivalent to a “renormalized
energy” studied in a series of papers by Serfaty and others, and thus, by the
work of Bétermin and Sandier [Constr. Approximation 47, 39–74 (2018)], we relate
the jellium energy to the order n term in the logarithmic energy of n points on
the unit 2-sphere. We improve upon known lower bounds for this renormalized energy.
Additionally, we derive formulas for the jellium energy of periodic configurations.'

text: Eigenstate thermalization in quantum many-body systems implies that eigenstates
at high energy are similar to random vectors. Identifying systems where at least
some eigenstates are nonthermal is an outstanding question. In this Letter we
show that interacting quantum models that have a nullspace—a degenerate subspace
of eigenstates at zero energy (zero modes), which corresponds to infinite temperature,
provide a route to nonthermal eigenstates. We analytically show the existence
of a zero mode which can be represented as a matrix product state for a certain
class of local Hamiltonians. In the more general case we use a subspace disentangling
algorithm to generate an orthogonal basis of zero modes characterized by increasing
entanglement entropy. We show evidence for an area-law entanglement scaling of
the least-entangled zero mode in the broad parameter regime, leading to a conjecture
that all local Hamiltonians with the nullspace feature zero modes with area-law
entanglement scaling and, as such, break the strong thermalization hypothesis.
Finally, we find zero modes in constrained models and propose a setup for observing
their experimental signatures.

text: Nitrate commands genome-wide gene expression changes that impact metabolism,
physiology, plant growth, and development. In an effort to identify new components
involved in nitrate responses in plants, we analyze the Arabidopsis thaliana root
phosphoproteome in response to nitrate treatments via liquid chromatography coupled
to tandem mass spectrometry. 176 phosphoproteins show significant changes at 5
or 20 min after nitrate treatments. Proteins identified by 5 min include signaling
components such as kinases or transcription factors. In contrast, by 20 min, proteins
identified were associated with transporter activity or hormone metabolism functions,
among others. The phosphorylation profile of NITRATE TRANSPORTER 1.1 (NRT1.1)
mutant plants was significantly altered as compared to wild-type plants, confirming
its key role in nitrate signaling pathways that involves phosphorylation changes.
Integrative bioinformatics analysis highlights auxin transport as an important
mechanism modulated by nitrate signaling at the post-translational level. We validated
a new phosphorylation site in PIN2 and provide evidence that it functions in primary
and lateral root growth responses to nitrate.

text: 'This work is concerned with two fascinating circuit quantum electrodynamics
components, the Josephson junction and the geometric superinductor, and the interesting
experiments that can be done by combining the two. The Josephson junction has
revolutionized the field of superconducting circuits as a non-linear dissipation-less
circuit element and is used in almost all superconducting qubit implementations
since the 90s. On the other hand, the superinductor is a relatively new circuit
element introduced as a key component of the fluxonium qubit in 2009. This is
an inductor with characteristic impedance larger than the resistance quantum and
self-resonance frequency in the GHz regime. The combination of these two elements
can occur in two fundamental ways: in parallel and in series. When connected in
parallel the two create the fluxonium qubit, a loop with large inductance and
a rich energy spectrum reliant on quantum tunneling. On the other hand placing
the two elements in series aids with the measurement of the IV curve of a single
Josephson junction in a high impedance environment. In this limit theory predicts
that the junction will behave as its dual element: the phase-slip junction. While
the Josephson junction acts as a non-linear inductor the phase-slip junction has
the behavior of a non-linear capacitance and can be used to measure new Josephson
junction phenomena, namely Coulomb blockade of Cooper pairs and phase-locked Bloch
oscillations. The latter experiment allows for a direct link between frequency
and current which is an elusive connection in quantum metrology. This work introduces
the geometric superinductor, a superconducting circuit element where the high
inductance is due to the geometry rather than the material properties of the superconductor,
realized from a highly miniaturized superconducting planar coil. These structures
will be described and characterized as resonators and qubit inductors and progress
towards the measurement of phase-locked Bloch oscillations will be presented.'

text: The brain is one of the largest and most complex organs and it is composed
of billions of neurons that communicate together enabling e.g. consciousness.
The cerebral cortex is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous
system. Concerted radial migration of newly born cortical projection neurons,
from their birthplace to their final position, is a key step in the assembly of
the cerebral cortex. The cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating radial neuronal
migration in vivo are however still unclear. Recent evidence suggests that distinct
signaling cues act cell-autonomously but differentially at certain steps during
the overall migration process. Moreover, functional analysis of genetic mosaics
(mutant neurons present in wild-type/heterozygote environment) using the MADM
(Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers) analyses in comparison to global knockout
also indicate a significant degree of non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects
in the control of cortical neuron migration. The interactions of cell-intrinsic
(cell-autonomous) and cell-extrinsic (non-cell-autonomous) components are largely
unknown. In part of this thesis work we established a MADM-based experimental
strategy for the quantitative analysis of cell-autonomous gene function versus
non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects. The direct comparison of mutant
neurons from the genetic mosaic (cell-autonomous) to mutant neurons in the conditional
and/or global knockout (cell-autonomous + non-cell-autonomous) allows to quantitatively
analyze non-cell-autonomous effects. Such analysis enable the high-resolution
analysis of projection neuron migration dynamics in distinct environments with
concomitant isolation of genomic and proteomic profiles. Using these experimental
paradigms and in combination with computational modeling we show and characterize
the nature of non-cell-autonomous effects to coordinate radial neuron migration.
Furthermore, this thesis discusses recent developments in neurodevelopment with
focus on neuronal polarization and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms in neuronal
migration.

text: "Blood – this is what animals use to heal wounds fast and efficient. Plants
do not have blood circulation and their cells cannot move. However, plants have
evolved remarkable capacities to regenerate tissues and organs preventing further
damage. In my PhD research, I studied the wound healing in the Arabidopsis root.
I used a UV laser to ablate single cells in the root tip and observed the consequent
wound healing. Interestingly, the inner adjacent cells induced a\r\ndivision plane
switch and subsequently adopted the cell type of the killed cell to replace it.
We termed this form of wound healing “restorative divisions”. This initial observation
triggered the questions of my PhD studies: How and why do cells orient their division
planes, how do they feel the wound and why does this happen only in inner adjacent
cells.\r\nFor answering these questions, I used a quite simple experimental setup:
5 day - old seedlings were stained with propidium iodide to visualize cell walls
and dead cells; ablation was carried out using a special laser cutter and a confocal
microscope. Adaptation of the novel vertical microscope system made it possible
to observe wounds in real time. This revealed that restorative divisions occur
at increased frequency compared to normal divisions. Additionally,\r\nthe major
plant hormone auxin accumulates in wound adjacent cells and drives the expression
of the wound-stress responsive transcription factor ERF115. Using this as a marker
gene for wound responses, we found that an important part of wound signalling
is the sensing of the collapse of the ablated cell. The collapse causes a radical
pressure drop, which results in strong tissue deformations. These deformations
manifest in an invasion of the now free spot specifically by the inner adjacent
cells within seconds, probably because of higher pressure of the inner tissues.
Long-term imaging revealed that those deformed cells continuously expand towards
the wound hole and that this is crucial for the restorative division. These wound-expanding
cells exhibit an abnormal, biphasic polarity of microtubule arrays\r\nbefore the
division. Experiments inhibiting cell expansion suggest that it is the biphasic
stretching that induces those MT arrays. Adapting the micromanipulator aspiration
system from animal scientists at our institute confirmed the hypothesis that stretching
influences microtubule stability. In conclusion, this shows that microtubules
react to tissue deformation\r\nand this facilitates the observed division plane
switch. This puts mechanical cues and tensions at the most prominent position
for explaining the growth and wound healing properties of plants. Hence, it shines
light onto the importance of understanding mechanical signal transduction. "

text: Indirect reciprocity is a mechanism for the evolution of cooperation based
on social norms. This mechanism requires that individuals in a population observe
and judge each other’s behaviors. Individuals with a good reputation are more
likely to receive help from others. Previous work suggests that indirect reciprocity
is only effective when all relevant information is reliable and publicly available.
Otherwise, individuals may disagree on how to assess others, even if they all
apply the same social norm. Such disagreements can lead to a breakdown of cooperation.
Here we explore whether the predominantly studied ‘leading eight’ social norms
of indirect reciprocity can be made more robust by equipping them with an element
of generosity. To this end, we distinguish between two kinds of generosity. According
to assessment generosity, individuals occasionally assign a good reputation to
group members who would usually be regarded as bad. According to action generosity,
individuals occasionally cooperate with group members with whom they would usually
defect. Using individual-based simulations, we show that the two kinds of generosity
have a very different effect on the resulting reputation dynamics. Assessment
generosity tends to add to the overall noise and allows defectors to invade. In
contrast, a limited amount of action generosity can be beneficial in a few cases.
However, even when action generosity is beneficial, the respective simulations
do not result in full cooperation. Our results suggest that while generosity can
favor cooperation when individuals use the most simple strategies of reciprocity,
it is disadvantageous when individuals use more complex social norms.

text: The family of feedback alignment (FA) algorithms aims to provide a more biologically
motivated alternative to backpropagation (BP), by substituting the computations
that are unrealistic to be implemented in physical brains. While FA algorithms
have been shown to work well in practice, there is a lack of rigorous theory proofing
their learning capabilities. Here we introduce the first feedback alignment algorithm
with provable learning guarantees. In contrast to existing work, we do not require
any assumption about the size or depth of the network except that it has a single
output neuron, i.e., such as for binary classification tasks. We show that our
FA algorithm can deliver its theoretical promises in practice, surpassing the
learning performance of existing FA methods and matching backpropagation in binary
classification tasks. Finally, we demonstrate the limits of our FA variant when
the number of output neurons grows beyond a certain quantity.

abstract:

text: We propose a neural information processing system obtained by re-purposing
the function of a biological neural circuit model to govern simulated and real-world
control tasks. Inspired by the structure of the nervous system of the soil-worm,
C. elegans, we introduce ordinary neural circuits (ONCs), defined as the model
of biological neural circuits reparameterized for the control of alternative tasks.
We first demonstrate that ONCs realize networks with higher maximum flow compared
to arbitrary wired networks. We then learn instances of ONCs to control a series
of robotic tasks, including the autonomous parking of a real-world rover robot.
For reconfiguration of the purpose of the neural circuit, we adopt a search-based
optimization algorithm. Ordinary neural circuits perform on par and, in some cases,
significantly surpass the performance of contemporary deep learning models. ONC
networks are compact, 77% sparser than their counterpart neural controllers, and
their neural dynamics are fully interpretable at the cell-level.

abstract:

text: 'In this thesis we study certain mathematical aspects of evolution. The two
primary forces that drive an evolutionary process are mutation and selection.
Mutation generates new variants in a population. Selection chooses among the variants
depending on the reproductive rates of individuals. Evolutionary processes are
intrinsically random – a new mutation that is initially present in the population
at low frequency can go extinct, even if it confers a reproductive advantage.
The overall rate of evolution is largely determined by two quantities: the probability
that an invading advantageous mutation spreads through the population (called
fixation probability) and the time until it does so (called fixation time). Both
those quantities crucially depend not only on the strength of the invading mutation
but also on the population structure. In this thesis, we aim to understand how
the underlying population structure affects the overall rate of evolution. Specifically,
we study population structures that increase the fixation probability of advantageous
mutants (called amplifiers of selection). Broadly speaking, our results are of
three different types: We present various strong amplifiers, we identify regimes
under which only limited amplification is feasible, and we propose population
structures that provide different tradeoffs between high fixation probability
and short fixation time.'
