Onsager's conjecture in bounded domains for the conservation of entropy and other companion laws.

ABSTRACT: We show that weak solutions of general conservation laws in bounded domains conserve their generalized entropy, and other respective companion laws, if they possess a certain fractional differentiability of order one-third in the interior of the domain, and if the normal component of the corresponding fluxes tend to zero as one approaches the boundary. This extends various recent results of the authors.

Dynamics of inherently bounded histone modification domains.

Project description:A central goal of chromatin biology is to reveal how posttranslational histone marks modulate gene expression; however, relatively little is known about the spatial or temporal dynamics of these marks. We previously showed that a dynamic model of histone mark nucleation, propagation, and turnover fits the mean enrichment profiles from 99% of noncentromeric histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) domains in mouse embryonic stem cells without the need for boundary or insulator elements. Here we report the full details of this "inherently bounded" model of histone modification dynamics and describe several dynamic features of the model using H3K9me3 as a paradigm. By analyzing the kinetic and structural constraints that drive formation of inherently bounded domains, we find that such domains are optimized when the rates of marking and turnover are comparable. Additionally, we find that to establish such domains, propagation of the histone marks must occur primarily through local contacts.

On conservation laws in quantum mechanics.

Project description:We raise fundamental questions about the very meaning of conservation laws in quantum mechanics, and we argue that the standard way of defining conservation laws, while perfectly valid as far as it goes, misses essential features of nature and has to be revisited and extended.

Scaling laws for lattice distortions: Application to high entropy alloys.

Project description:Lattice distortions are intrinsic features of all solid solution alloys associated with varying atomic radii; this phenomenon facilitates the formation of single-phase solid solutions. Using high-entropy alloys (HEAs), as an example, we investigate the influence of variations in inter-atomic separations for stabilizing and controlling their structural, mechanical, and thermodynamic properties. This is done through a combination of statistical mechanics analysis and molecular dynamics simulations on simplified 2D systems, as well as a 3D crystals with harmonic and anharmonic inter-atomic bonds with varying natural inter-atomic separations. We demonstrate that the impact of this inter-atomic length disorder (representing static lattice distortion) and temperature fluctuations (representing dynamic lattice distortion) on fundamental and universal thermodynamic, structural, and elastic characteristics are similar and can be unified through effective temperature; i.e. a scaling law for HEAs that establishes a relationship between these factors. This scaling law reveals that different HEAs (i.e. varying degrees of local lattice distortions) collapse onto a single curve when plotted against the effective temperature. We demonstrate that lattice distortion significantly enhances the stability of solid solution alloys (relative to phase separation or ordering by effectively increasing the temperature of the system; this stabilization effect is particularly pronounced in HEAs).

Conservation laws for electron vortices in strong-field ionisation.

Project description:AbstractWe investigate twisted electrons with a well-defined orbital angular momentum, which have been ionised via a strong laser field. By formulating a new variant of the well-known strong field approximation, we are able to derive conservation laws for the angular momenta of twisted electrons in the cases of linear and circularly polarised fields. In the case of linear fields, we demonstrate that the orbital angular momentum of the twisted electron is determined by the magnetic quantum number of the initial bound state. The condition for the circular field can be related to the famous ATI peaks, and provides a new interpretation for this fundamental feature of photoelectron spectra. We find the length of the circular pulse to be a vital factor in this selection rule and, employing an effective frequency, we show that the photoelectron OAM emission spectra are sensitive to the parity of the number of laser cycles. This work provides the basic theoretical framework with which to understand the OAM of a photoelectron undergoing strong field ionisation.Graphic abstract

Discovering conservation laws using optimal transport and manifold learning.

Project description:Conservation laws are key theoretical and practical tools for understanding, characterizing, and modeling nonlinear dynamical systems. However, for many complex systems, the corresponding conserved quantities are difficult to identify, making it hard to analyze their dynamics and build stable predictive models. Current approaches for discovering conservation laws often depend on detailed dynamical information or rely on black box parametric deep learning methods. We instead reformulate this task as a manifold learning problem and propose a non-parametric approach for discovering conserved quantities. We test this new approach on a variety of physical systems and demonstrate that our method is able to both identify the number of conserved quantities and extract their values. Using tools from optimal transport theory and manifold learning, our proposed method provides a direct geometric approach to identifying conservation laws that is both robust and interpretable without requiring an explicit model of the system nor accurate time information.

Conservation laws by virtue of scale symmetries in neural systems.

Project description:In contrast to the symmetries of translation in space, rotation in space, and translation in time, the known laws of physics are not universally invariant under transformation of scale. However, a special case exists in which the action is scale invariant if it satisfies the following two constraints: 1) it must depend upon a scale-free Lagrangian, and 2) the Lagrangian must change under scale in the same way as the inverse time, [Formula: see text]. Our contribution lies in the derivation of a generalised Lagrangian, in the form of a power series expansion, that satisfies these constraints. This generalised Lagrangian furnishes a normal form for dynamic causal models-state space models based upon differential equations-that can be used to distinguish scale symmetry from scale freeness in empirical data. We establish face validity with an analysis of simulated data, in which we show how scale symmetry can be identified and how the associated conserved quantities can be estimated in neuronal time series.

Identifying all moiety conservation laws in genome-scale metabolic networks.

Project description:The stoichiometry of a metabolic network gives rise to a set of conservation laws for the aggregate level of specific pools of metabolites, which, on one hand, pose dynamical constraints that cross-link the variations of metabolite concentrations and, on the other, provide key insight into a cell's metabolic production capabilities. When the conserved quantity identifies with a chemical moiety, extracting all such conservation laws from the stoichiometry amounts to finding all non-negative integer solutions of a linear system, a programming problem known to be NP-hard. We present an efficient strategy to compute the complete set of integer conservation laws of a genome-scale stoichiometric matrix, also providing a certificate for correctness and maximality of the solution. Our method is deployed for the analysis of moiety conservation relationships in two large-scale reconstructions of the metabolism of the bacterium E. coli, in six tissue-specific human metabolic networks, and, finally, in the human reactome as a whole, revealing that bacterial metabolism could be evolutionarily designed to cover broader production spectra than human metabolism. Convergence to the full set of moiety conservation laws in each case is achieved in extremely reduced computing times. In addition, we uncover a scaling relation that links the size of the independent pool basis to the number of metabolites, for which we present an analytical explanation.

Entropy gives rise to topologically associating domains.

Project description:We investigate chromosome organization within the nucleus using polymer models whose formulation is closely guided by experiments in live yeast cells. We employ bead-spring chromosome models together with loop formation within the chains and the presence of nuclear bodies to quantify the extent to which these mechanisms shape the topological landscape in the interphase nucleus. By investigating the genome as a dynamical system, we show that domains of high chromosomal interactions can arise solely from the polymeric nature of the chromosome arms due to entropic interactions and nuclear confinement. In this view, the role of bio-chemical related processes is to modulate and extend the duration of the interacting domains.

GACAL: Conjecture-Based Verification : (Competition Contribution)

Project description:GACAL verifies C programs by searching over the space of possible invariants, using traces of the input program to identify potential invariants. GACAL uses the ACL2s theorem prover to verify these potential invariants, using an interface provided by ACL2s for connecting with external tools. GACAL iteratively searches for and proves invariants of increasing complexity until the program is verified.
