The Fa,b,c conjecture, I

In 1977 a five-part conjecture was made about a family of groups related to trivalent graphs and one part of the conjecture was proved. The conjecture completely determines all finite members of the family. Here we prove another part of the conjecture and foreshadow a paper which completes the proof of the other three parts.

The Fa,b,c conjecture is true, II

In 1977 a five-part conjecture was made about a family of groups related to trivalent graphs and subsequently two parts of the conjecture were proved. The conjecture completely determines all finite members of the family. Here we complete the proof of the conjecture by giving proofs for the remaining three parts. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.

A, B, C… Anorexia, bulimia y comedor compulsivo. Manual para docentes

Los trastornos relacionados con la alimentación se han convertido, en los úl- timos años, en un grave problema de salud pública, tanto por la gravedad que estas patologías adquieren con el tiempo, como por la alarma social que se ha despertado frente a la, cada vez más frecuente, aparición de estos trastornos. A este respecto baste señalar que, según los últimos datos, de la población de jóvenes escolarizados en la Comunidad de Madrid, con edades comprendidas entre los quince y dieciocho años, un 3.4% padecen un TCA y un 7,6% presen- tan riesgo de padecerlo, lo que, unido a la prevalencia actual, supone que este problema de salud afecta a un 11% de los adolescentes escolarizados en Madrid. Junto a los jóvenes que padecen un trastorno relacionado con la alimentación hay una cantidad considerable de menores que presentan conductas de riesgo relacionadas con la aparición de estos trastornos. Así, según los últimos estudios con adolescentes, un 7,1% de los chicos y un 34,1% de las chicas han iniciado una dieta para adelgazar en el último año, mientras que un 1,1% de los chicos y un 9,1% de las chicas se han provocado el vómito con la intención de adelgazar. Un joven que está empezando a desarrollar una anorexia o una bulimia puede pasar desapercibido para su entorno, la diferencia entre la salud y la enfer- medad es, en sus orígenes, muy sutil. Así, es difícil diferenciar al adolescente que se pone a dieta porque es la moda y acaba dejando la dieta pasadas unas semanas, del joven que, con idéntico inicio, acaba desarrollando un trastorno. El INUTCAM, consciente de la compleja situación a la que se enfrentan los docentes en cuanto a los TCA, publica este manual con la intención de brindar una ayuda más de cara a la prevención, detección y atención a los jóvenes con estas patologías.

Landscape strategies in Bronze Age Southwestern Cyprus (2500-1100 B.C.)

This thesis concerns the analysis of the socio-economic transformation of communities in Bronze Age southwestern Cyprus. Through the adoption of a dialectical perspective of analysis, individuals and environment are considered part of the same unity: they are cooperating agents in shaping society and culture. The Bronze Age is a period of intense transformation in the organization of local communities, made of a continuous renegotiation of the socio-economic roles and interactions. The archaeological record from this portion of the island allows one to go beyond the investigation of the complex and articulated transition from the EBA-MBA agro-pastoral and self-sufficient communities to the LBA centralized and trade-oriented urban-centres. Through a shifting of analytical scales, the emerging picture suggests major transformations in the individual-community-territory dialectical relations. A profound change in the materials conditions of social life, as well as in the superstructural realm, was particularly entailed by the dissolution of the relation to the earth, due to the emergence of new forms of land exploitation/ownership and to the shift of the settlement pattern in previously unknown areas. One of the key points of this thesis is the methodological challenge of working with legacy survey data as I re-analysed a diverse archaeological legacy, which is the result of more than fifty years of survey projects, rescue and research-oriented excavations, as well as casual discoveries. Source critique and data evaluation are essential requirements in an integrative and cross-disciplinary regional perspective, in the comprehensive processing of heterogeneous archaeological and environmental datasets. Through the estimation of data precision and certainty, I developed an effective - but simple - method to critically evaluate existing datasets and to inter-correlate them without losing their original complexity. This powerful method for data integration can be applied to similar datasets belonging to other regions and other periods as it originates from the evaluation of larger methodological and theoretical issues that are not limited to my spatial and temporal focus. As I argue in this thesis, diverse archaeological legacies can be efficiently re-analysed through an integrative and regional methodology. The adoption of a regional scale of analysis can provide an excellent perspective on the complexity of transformations in ancient societies, thus creating a fundamental bridge between the local stories and grand landscape narratives.

基于第一原理的固体变形、强度及外延成长研究

本文基于第一原理的能量计算和稳定性理论，研究了双原子组分材料β-SiC在各种载荷方式下的力学性质：弹性行为、应力－应变关系、稳定性和强度。由于沿[111]方向加载时四个Si-C键是不等价的，所以有相对内位移出现。本文的分析揭示了如下事实：当载荷较小时，内位移的影响不明显；当载荷较大时，影响则越来越显著；裂纹在{111}shuffle面上成核，并最终导致材料以解理的形式破坏。在沿[001]单轴拉伸的情况下，spinodal失稳（即体破坏）和Born失稳被同时触发，并体现了一种级联破坏的模式。基于同样的理论和方法，进一步研究了铝在各种加载方式下的响应及分叉行为。得到了铝的沿[001]和[111]方向单轴加载和单轴应变、及沿[010]和[001]方向的双轴比例加载情况下的、完整的能量－应变曲线和应力－应变曲线。详细地分析了沿[001]方向的单轴加载情况下的稳定性及分叉行为。研究结果表明，除了自然的面心立方结构外，所有其它的、应力自由的立方结构都是不稳定的。对于铝而言，稳定的面心立方结构不能从沿任何等价的[001]和[111]方向的单轴压缩的方法而得到。本文的结果丰富了现存的第一原理数据库。基于第一原理的能量计算，分析了碱金属K、Rb和Cs在如下四个结晶面上外延成长的行为，即{001}、{110}、{111}和{201}。发现除了在{110}面以外，在其它的三个结晶面上都发现有亚稳态存在。当外延应变为拉伸状态时，在{001}和{111}面上存在着亚稳态，其结构为b.c.c.结构。当外延应变为压缩状态时，在{201}面存在一个亚稳态，是一个超结构，。亚稳态的存在显著地影响着材料外延成长的软化行为。基于正交变形路径，并考虑了温度的影响以后，解释了实验上观察到的碱金属从h.c.p.结构转变到b.c.c.结构的现象。本文第五章归纳整理在赝势平面波框架下的总能、力和应力在实空间和动量空间的解析表达式，以方便参阅和使用。

Studi su Cimone. Saggio di storia greca, ca. 478-461 a.C.

La monografia propone un’analisi del periodo ca. 478-461 a.C. della storia ateniese e delle vicende di Cimone figlio di Milziade entro il contesto contemporaneo. Lo studio dell’Atene, e più in generale di varie realtà elleniche affacciate sull’Egeo, negli immediati anni ‘post-persiani’ si articola in due parti: la prima ripercorre in senso cronologico le notizie, essenzialmente letterarie, disponibili in merito alle attività politiche e militari di Atene, quale guida dell’alleanza greca; la seconda trae conclusioni di respiro più ampio, fondate sull’analisi precedente, e cerca una sintesi del periodo e del personaggio nel superamento di stereotipi e condizionamenti letterari. In tale ottica si esprime una riflessione, a partire dalla scarna trattazione tucididea, sui meccanismi attraverso i quali la tradizione ha deformato e sedimentato le informazioni disponibili generando un progressivo arricchimento che ha portato alla definizione, di fatto, di una ‘era cimoniana’ che è possibile mettere in discussione in alcuni tratti essenziali. Si mira dunque a proporre una valutazione del periodo priva di alcuni elementi, in ultimo evidenti soprattutto nell’approccio plutarcheo alla materia, che appaiono alieni al contesto di riferimento per la prima parte del V secolo: i temi principali ai quali si dedica la riflessione sono quelli dell’imperialismo ateniese, del filolaconismo, della bipolarità tra democrazia e oligarchia, della propaganda politico-mitologica. Il rapporto di Atene con Sparta, con gli Ioni e con le altre realtà del mondo egeo viene letto alla luce degli indizi disponibili sul clima di incertezza e di delicati equilibri creatosi all’indomani della ritirata delle forze persiane. Il ritratto di Cimone che si propone è quello di una figura indubbiamente significativa nella politica contemporanea ma, al contempo, fortemente condizionata e talora adombrata da dinamiche in qualche modo condivise all’interno dello scenario politico ateniese, improntato alla soddisfazione di necessità e volontà che la tradizione renderà archetipiche del paradigma democratico.

Molecular mechanisms of Ca$\sp{2+}$ signal transduction from cardiac troponin C to troponin I

$\rm Ca\sp{2+}$-dependent exposure of an N-terminal hydrophobic region in troponin C (TnC) is thought to be important for the regulation of contraction in striated muscle. To study these conformational changes in cardiac troponin (cTnC), the $\varepsilon$C and $\varepsilon$H chemical shifts for all 10 Met residues in cTnC were sequence-specific assigned on NMR spectra using a combination of two dimensional NMR techniques and site-directed mutagenesis. The assigned methyl-Met chemical shifts were used as structural markers to monitor conformational changes induced by $\rm Ca\sp{2+}.$ The results showed that binding of $\rm Ca\sp{2+}$ to the regulatory site in the N-domain induced large changes in the $\varepsilon$H and $\varepsilon$C chemical shifts of Met 45, Met 80, Met 81 in the predicted N-terminal hydrophobic region, but had no effect on the chemical shifts of Met residues located in the C-domain. These results suggest that the $\rm Ca\sp{2+}$-dependent functions of cTnC are mainly through N-terminal domain of cTnC.^ To further define the molecular mechanism by which TnC regulates muscle contraction, single Cys residues were engineered at positions 45, 81, 84 or 85 in the N-terminal hydrophobic region of cTnC to provide sites for attachment of specific blocking groups. Blocking groups were coupled to these Cys residues in cTnC mutants and the covalent adducts were tested for activity in TnC-extracted myofibrils. Covalent modification of cTnC(C45) had no effect on maximal myofibril ATPase activity. Greatly decreased myofibril ATPase activity resulted when the peptide or biotin was conjugated to residue 81 in cTnC(C81), while less inhibition resulted from covalent modification of cTnC(C84) or cTnC(C85). The results suggest that limited sites of the N-terminal hydrophobic region in cTnC are important for transducing the $\rm Ca\sp{2+}$ signal to troponin I (TnI) and are sensitive to modification, while other regions are less important or can adapt to steric hindrances introduced by bulky blocking groups.^ Although the exposed TnI interaction site in the N-terminal hydrophobic region of TnC is crucial for function of TnC, other regions in the N-domain of TnC may also participate in transducing the $\rm Ca\sp{2+}$ signal and conferring the maximal activation of actomyosin ATPase. The interactions between the B-/C-helices of cTnC and cTnI were characterized using a combination of site-directed mutagenesis, fluorescence and covalent modification. The results suggest that the $\rm Ca\sp{2+}$-dependent interactions of the B-/C-helices of cTnC with TnI may be required for the maximal activation of muscle contraction. ^
