  2. 1. Configurations in Quantum Information

    Author : Kate Blanchfield; Ingemar Bengtsson; Erik Sjöqvist; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Measurements play a central role in quantum information. This thesis looksat two types: contextual measurements and symmetric measurements. Contextualityoriginates from the Kochen-Specker theorem about hidden variablemodels and has recently undergone a subtle shift in its manifestation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Analysis of inherited and somatic variants to decipher canine complex traits

    Author : Kate Megquier; Kerstin Lindblad-Toh; Ingegerd Elvers; David Sargan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dog; genetics; GWAS; exome; cancer; DM;

    Abstract : This thesis presents several investigations of the dog as a model for complex diseases, focusing on cancers and the effect of genetic risk factors on clinical presentation.In Papers I and II, we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify germline risk factors predisposing US golden retrievers to hemangiosarcoma (HSA) and B-cell lymphoma (BLSA).

  5. 3. Love (eating) thy neighbour? Understanding and predicting food-web structure and dynamics

    Author : Kate Wootton; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Food webs are networks of feeding interactions that provide the backbone of ecological communities. The structure - who eats whom - and dynamics - how population abundances fluctuate as a result - of food webs depend on the traits of the species present. READ MORE

  6. 4. Geometry and foundations of quantum mechanics

    Author : Kate Blanchfield; Ingemar Bengtsson; Anthony Sudberry; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis explores three notions in the foundations of quantum mechanics: mutually unbiased bases (MUBs), symmetric informationally-complete positive operator valued measures (SICs) and contextuality. MUBs and SICs are sets of vectors corresponding to special measurements in quantum mechanics, but there is no proof of their existence in all dimensions. READ MORE
