text: "Payment channel networks are a promising approach to improve the scalability
bottleneck\r\nof cryptocurrencies. Two design principles behind payment channel
networks are\r\nefficiency and privacy. Payment channel networks improve efficiency
by allowing users\r\nto transact in a peer-to-peer fashion along multi-hop routes
in the network, avoiding\r\nthe lengthy process of consensus on the blockchain.
Transacting over payment channel\r\nnetworks also improves privacy as these transactions
are not broadcast to the blockchain.\r\nDespite the influx of recent protocols
built on top of payment channel networks and\r\ntheir analysis, a common shortcoming
of many of these protocols is that they typically\r\nfocus only on either improving
efficiency or privacy, but not both. Another limitation\r\non the efficiency front
is that the models used to model actions, costs and utilities of\r\nusers are
limited or come with unrealistic assumptions.\r\nThis thesis aims to address some
of the shortcomings of recent protocols and algorithms\r\non payment channel networks,
particularly in their privacy and efficiency aspects. We\r\nfirst present a payment
route discovery protocol based on hub labelling and private\r\ninformation retrieval
that hides the route query and is also efficient. We then present\r\na rebalancing
protocol that formulates the rebalancing problem as a linear program\r\nand solves
the linear program using multiparty computation so as to hide the channel\r\nbalances.
The rebalancing solution as output by our protocol is also globally optimal.\r\nWe
go on to develop more realistic models of the action space, costs, and utilities
of\r\nboth existing and new users that want to join the network. In each of these
settings,\r\nwe also develop algorithms to optimise the utility of these users
with good guarantees\r\non the approximation and competitive ratios."

text: "Most motions of many-body systems at any scale in nature with sufficient
degrees\r\nof freedom tend to be chaotic; reaching from the orbital motion of
planets, the air\r\ncurrents in our atmosphere, down to the water flowing through
our pipelines or\r\nthe movement of a population of bacteria. To the observer
it is therefore intriguing\r\nwhen a moving collective exhibits order. Collective
motion of flocks of birds, schools\r\nof fish or swarms of self-propelled particles

mechanisms that preserve, destabilize\r\nor lead to the ordered state. We show
that endothelial cells migrating in circular\r\nconfinements transition to a collective

text: "Superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures currently capture a significant
amount of research interest and they serve as the physical platform in many proposals
towards topological quantum computation.\r\nDespite being under extensive investigations,
historically using transport techniques, the basic properties of the interface
between the superconductor and the semiconductor remain to be understood.\r\n\r\nIn
this thesis, two separate studies on the Al-InAs heterostructures are reported
with the first focusing on the physics of the material motivated by the emergence
of a new phase, the Bogoliubov-Fermi surface. \r\nThe second focuses on a technological
application, a gate-tunable Josephson parametric amplifier.\r\n\r\nIn the first
study, we investigate the hypothesized unconventional nature of the induced superconductivity
at the interface between the Al thin film and the InAs quantum well.\r\nWe embed
a two-dimensional Al-InAs hybrid system in a resonant microwave circuit allowing
measurements of change in inductance.\r\nThe behaviour of the resonance in a range
of temperature and in-plane magnetic field has been studied and compared with
the theory of conventional s-wave superconductor and a two-component theory that
includes both contribution of the $s$-wave pairing in Al and the intraband $p
\\pm ip$ pairing in InAs.\r\nMeasuring the temperature dependence of resonant
frequency, no discrepancy is found between data and the conventional theory.\r\nWe
observe the breakdown of superconductivity due to an applied magnetic field which
contradicts the conventional theory.\r\nIn contrast, the data can be captured
quantitatively by fitting to a two-component model.\r\nWe find the evidence of
the intraband $p \\pm ip$ pairing in the InAs and the emergence of the Bogoliubov-Fermi
surfaces due to magnetic field with the characteristic value $B^* = 0.33~\\mathrm{T}$.\r\nFrom
the fits, the sheet resistance of Al, the carrier density and mobility in InAs
are determined.\r\nBy systematically studying the anisotropy of the circuit response,
we find weak anisotropy for $B < B^*$ and increasingly strong anisotropy for $B
> B^*$ resulting in a pronounced two-lobe structure in polar plot of frequency
versus field angle.\r\nStrong resemblance between the field dependence of dissipation
and superfluid density hints at a hidden signature of the Bogoliubov-Fermi surface
that is burried in the dissipation data.\r\n\r\nIn the second study, we realize
a parametric amplifier with a Josephson field effect transistor as the active
element.\r\nThe device's modest construction consists of a gated SNS weak link
embedded at the center of a coplanar waveguide resonator.\r\nBy applying a gate
voltage, the resonant frequency is field-effect tunable over a range of 2 GHz.\r\nModelling
the JoFET minimally as a parallel RL circuit, the dissipation introduced by the
JoFET can be quantitatively related to the gate voltage.\r\nWe observed gate-tunable
Kerr nonlinearity qualitatively in line with expectation.\r\nThe JoFET amplifier
has 20 dB of gain, 4 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth, and a 1dB compression point
of -125.5 dBm when operated at a fixed resonant frequency.\r\nIn general, the
signal-to-noise ratio is improved by 5-7 dB when the JoFET amplifier is activated
compared.\r\nThe noise of the measurement chain and insertion loss of relevant
circuit elements are calibrated to determine the expected and the real noise performance
of the JoFET amplifier.\r\nAs a quantification of the noise performance, the measured
total input-referred noise of the JoFET amplifier is in good agreement with the
estimated expectation which takes device loss into account.\r\nWe found that the
noise performance of the device reported in this document approaches one photon
of total input-referred added noise which is the quantum limit imposed in nondegenerate
parametric amplifier."

text: "Females and males across species are subject to divergent selective pressures
arising\r\nfrom di↵erent reproductive interests and ecological niches. This often
translates into a\r\nintricate array of sex-specific natural and sexual selection
on traits that have a shared\r\ngenetic basis between both sexes, causing a genetic
sexual conflict. The resolution of\r\nthis conflict mostly relies on the evolution
of sex-specific expression of the shared genes,\r\nleading to phenotypic sexual
dimorphism. Such sex-specific gene expression is thought\r\nto evolve via modifications
of the genetic networks ultimately linked to sex-determining\r\ntranscription
factors. Although much empirical and theoretical evidence supports this\r\nstandard
picture of the molecular basis of sexual conflict resolution, there still are
a\r\nfew open questions regarding the complex array of selective forces driving
phenotypic\r\ndi↵erentiation between the sexes, as well as the molecular mechanisms
underlying sexspecific adaptation. I address some of these open questions in my
PhD thesis.\r\nFirst, how do patterns of phenotypic sexual dimorphism vary within
populations,\r\nas a response to the temporal and spatial changes in sex-specific
selective forces? To\r\ntackle this question, I analyze the patterns of sex-specific
phenotypic variation along\r\nthree life stages and across populations spanning
the whole geographical range of Rumex\r\nhastatulus, a wind-pollinated angiosperm,
in the first Chapter of the thesis.\r\nSecond, how do gene expression patterns
lead to phenotypic dimorphism, and what\r\nare the molecular mechanisms underlying
the observed transcriptomic variation? I\r\naddress this question by examining
the sex- and tissue-specific expression variation in\r\nnewly-generated datasets
of sex-specific expression in heads and gonads of Drosophila\r\nmelanogaster.
I additionally used two complementary approaches for the study of the\r\ngenetic
basis of sex di↵erences in gene expression in the second and third Chapters of\r\nthe
thesis.\r\nThird, how does intersex correlation, thought to be one of the main
aspects constraining the ability for the two sexes to decouple, interact with
the evolution of sexual\r\ndimorphism? I develop models of sex-specific stabilizing
selection, mutation and drift\r\nto formalize common intuition regarding the patterns
of covariation between intersex\r\ncorrelation and sexual dimorphism in the fourth
Chapter of the thesis.\r\nAlltogether, the work described in this PhD thesis provides
useful insights into the\r\nlinks between genetic, transcriptomic and phenotypic
layers of sex-specific variation,\r\nand contributes to our general understanding
of the dynamics of sexual dimorphism\r\nevolution."

text: 'For self-incompatibility (SI) to be stable in a population, theory predicts
that sufficient inbreeding depression (ID) is required: the fitness of offspring
from self-mated individuals must be low enough to prevent the spread of self-compatibility
(SC). Reviews of natural plant populations have supported this theory, with SI
species generally showing high levels of ID. However, there is thought to be an
under-sampling of self-incompatible taxa in the current literature. In this thesis,
I study inbreeding depression in the SI plant species Antirrhinum majus using
both greenhouse crosses and a large collected field dataset. Additionally, the
gametophytic S-locus of A. majus is highly heterozygous and polymorphic, thus
making assembly and discovery of S-alleles very difficult. Here, 206 new alleles
of the male component SLFs are presented, along with a phylogeny showing the high
conservation with alleles from another Antirrhinum species. Lastly, selected sites
within the protein structure of SLFs are investigated, with one site in particular
highlighted as potentially being involved in the SI recognition mechanism.'

text: "Stochastic systems provide a formal framework for modelling and quantifying
uncertainty in systems and have been widely adopted in many application domains.
Formal\r\nverification and control of finite state stochastic systems, a subfield
of formal methods\r\nalso known as probabilistic model checking, is well studied.
In contrast, formal verification and control of infinite state stochastic systems
have received comparatively\r\nless attention. However, infinite state stochastic
systems commonly arise in practice.\r\nFor instance, probabilistic models that
contain continuous probability distributions such\r\nas normal or uniform, or
stochastic dynamical systems which are a classical model for\r\ncontrol under
uncertainty, both give rise to infinite state systems.\r\nThe goal of this thesis
is to contribute to laying theoretical and algorithmic foundations\r\nof fully
automated formal verification and control of infinite state stochastic systems,\r\nwith
a particular focus on systems that may be executed over a long or infinite time.\r\nWe
consider formal verification of infinite state stochastic systems in the setting
of\r\nstatic analysis of probabilistic programs and formal control in the setting
of controller\r\nsynthesis in stochastic dynamical systems. For both problems,
we present some of the\r\nfirst fully automated methods for probabilistic (a.k.a.
quantitative) reachability and\r\nsafety analysis applicable to infinite time
horizon systems. We also advance the state\r\nof the art of probability 1 (a.k.a.
qualitative) reachability analysis for both problems.\r\nFinally, for formal controller
synthesis in stochastic dynamical systems, we present a\r\nnovel framework for
learning neural network control policies in stochastic dynamical\r\nsystems with
formal guarantees on correctness with respect to quantitative reachability,\r\nsafety
or reach-avoid specifications.\r\n"

text: "Within the human body, the brain exhibits the highest rate of energy consumption
amongst all organs, with the majority of generated ATP being utilized to sustain
neuronal activity. Therefore, the metabolism of the mature cerebral cortex is
geared towards preserving metabolic homeostasis whilst generating significant
amounts of energy. This requires a precise interplay between diverse metabolic
pathways, spanning from a tissue-wide scale to the level of individual neurons.
Disturbances to this delicate metabolic equilibrium, such as those resulting from
maternal malnutrition\r\nor mutations affecting metabolic enzymes, often result
in neuropathological variants of neurodevelopment. For instance, mutations in
SLC7A5, a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs),
have been associated with autism and microcephaly. However, despite recent progress
in the field, the extent of metabolic restructuring that occurs within the developing
brain and the corresponding alterations in nutrient demands during various critical
periods remain largely unknown. To investigate this, we performed metabolomic
profiling of the murine cerebral cortex to characterize the metabolic state of
the forebrain at different developmental stages. We found that the developing
cortex undergoes substantial metabolic reprogramming, with specific sets of metabolites
displaying stage-specific changes. According to our observations, we determined
a distinct temporal period in postnatal development during which the cortex displays
heightened reliance on LNAAs. Hence, using a conditional knock-out mouse model,
we deleted Slc7a5 in neural cells, allowing us to monitor the impact of a perturbed
neuronal metabolic state across multiple developmental stages of corticogenesis.
We found that manipulating the levels of essential LNAAs in cortical neurons in
vivo affects one particular perinatal developmental period critical for cortical
network refinement. Abnormally low intracellular LNAA levels result in cell-autonomous
alterations in neuronal lipid metabolism, excitability, and survival during this
particular time window. Although most of the effects of Slc7a5 deletion on neuronal
physiology are transient, derailment of these processes during this brief but
crucial window leads to long-term circuit dysfunction in mice. In conclusion,
out data indicate that the cerebral cortex undergoes significant metabolic reorganization
during development. This process involves the intricate integration of multiple
metabolic pathways to ensure optimal neuronal function throughout different developmental
stages. Our findings offer a paradigm for understanding how neurons synchronize
the expression of nutrient-related genes with their activity to allow proper brain
maturation. Further, our results demonstrate that disruptions in these precisely
calibrated metabolic processes during critical periods of brain development may
result in neuropathological outcomes in mice and in humans."
