    On Non-Rank Facets of Stable Set Polytopes of Webs with Clique Number Four (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-10
    Description: Graphs with circular symmetry, called webs, are relevant w.r.t. describing the stable set polytopes of two larger graph classes, quasi-line graphs and claw-free graphs. Providing a decent linear description of the stable set polytopes of claw-free graphs is a long-standing problem. However, even the problem of finding all facets of stable set polytopes of webs is open. So far, it is only known that stable set polytopes of webs with clique number $\leq 3$ have rank facets only while there are examples with clique number $〉4$ having non-rank facets.

    Multiscale Analysis for the Bio-Heat Transfer Equation (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The bio-heat transfer equation is a macroscopic model for describing the heat transfer in microvascular tissue. In [{\sl Deuflhard, Hochmuth 2002}] the authors applied homogenization techniques to derive the bio-heat transfer equation as asymptotic result of boundary value problems which provide a microscopic description for microvascular tissue. Here those results are generalized to a geometrical setting where the regions of blood are allowed to be connected. Moreover, asymptotic corrector results are derived.

    Polyhedral Investigations on Stable Multi-Sets (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-10
    Description: Stable multi-sets are an evident generalization of the well-known stable sets. As integer programs, they constitute a general structure which allows for a wide applicability of the results. Moreover, the study of stable multi-sets provides new insights to well-known properties of stable sets. In this paper, we continue our investigations started in [{\sl Koster and Zymolka 2002}] and present results of three types: on the relation to other combinatorial problems, on the polyhedral structure of the stable multi-set polytope, and on the computational impact of the polyhedral results. First of all, we embed stable multi-sets in a framework of generalized set packing problems and point out several relations. The second part discusses properties of the stable multi-set polytope. We show that the vertices of the linear relaxation are half integer and have a special structure. Moreover, we strengthen the conditions for cycle inequalities to be facet defining, show that the separation problem for these inequalities is polynomial time solvable, and discuss the impact of chords in cycles. The last result allows to interpret cliques as cycles with many chords. The paper is completed with a computational study to the practical importance of the cycle inequalities. The computations show that the performance of state-of-the-art integer programming solvers can be improved significantly by including these inequalities.

    Formation and structure of quasi-static cloud-layers in brown dwarf atmospheres (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: In this paper, first solutions of the dust moment equations developed in [{\sl Woitke & Helling 2002}] for the description of dust formation and precipitation in brown dwarf and giant gas planet atmospheres are presented. We consider the special case of a static brown dwarf atmosphere, where dust particles continuously nucleate from the gas phase, grow by the accretion of molecules, settle gravitationally and re-evaporate thermally. Applying a kinetic description of the relevant microphysical and chemical processes for TiO$_2$-grains, the model makes predictions about the large-scale stratification of dust in the atmosphere, the depletion of molecules from the gas phase, the supersaturation of the gas in the atmosphere as well as the mean size and the mass fraction of dust grains as function of depth. Our results suggest that the nucleation occu in the upper atmosphere where the gas is cool, strongly depleted, but nevertheless highly supersaturated ($S\!\gg\!1$). These particles settle gravitationally and populate the warmer layers below, where the in-situ formation (nucleation) is ineffective or even not possible. During their descent, the particles grow up to radii $\approx\!0.3\,\mu{\rm m}\,...\,150\,\mu{\rm m}$, depending gas around the cloud base. The particles finally sink into layers which are sufficiently hot to cause their thermal evaporation. Hence, an effective transport mechanism for condensable elements exi considered solid/liquid material. In the stationary case studied here, this downward directed element transport by precipitating dust grains is balanced by an upward directed flux of condensable elements from the deep interior of the star via convective mixing (no dust without mixing). We find a self-regulation mechanism which leads to an approximate phase equilibrium ($S\!\approx\!1$) around the cloud base. The mass fraction of dust present in the atmosphere results be to approximately given by the mass fraction of condensable elements in the gas being mixed up.

    Visualization of Time-Dependent Adaptive Mesh Refinement Data (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-09
    Description: Analysis of phenomena that simultaneously occur on quite different spatial and temporal scales require adaptive, hierarchical schemes to reduce computational and storage demands. For data represented as grid functions, the key are adaptive, hierarchical, time-dependent grids that resolve spatio-temporal details without too much redundancy. Here, so-called AMR grids gain increasing popularity. For visualization and feature identification/tracking, the underlying continuous function has to be faithfully reconstructed by spatial and temporal interpolation. Well designed interpolation methods yield better results and help to reduce the amount of data to be stored. We address the problem of temporal interpolation of AMR grid data, e.g.\ for creation of smooth animations or feature tracking. Intermediate grid hierarchies are generated by merging the cells on all refinement levels that are present in the key frames considered. Utilizing a clustering algorithm a structure of nested grids is induced on the resulting collection of cells. The grid functions are mapped to the intermediate hierarchy, thus allowing application of appropriate interpolation techniques.

    Tensor Splats (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-09
    Description: An improved general-purpose technique for the visualization of symmetric positive definite tensor fields of rank two is described. It is based on a splatting technique that is built from tiny transparent glyph primitives which are capable to incorporate the full directional information content of a tensor. The result is an information-rich image that allows to read off the preferred directions in a tensor field at each point of a three-dimensional volume or two-dimensional surface. It is useful for analyzing slices or volumes of a three-dimensional tensor field and can be overlayed with standard volume rendering or color mapping. The application of the rendering technique is demonstrated on general relativistic data and the diffusion tensor field of a human brain.

    A construction for non-rank facets of stable set polytopes of webs (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-10
    Description: Graphs with circular symmetry, called webs, are relevant for describing the stable set polytopes of two larger graph classes, quasi-line graphs [{\sl Giles and Trotter 1981, Oriolo 2001}] and claw-free graphs [{\sl Galluccio and Sassano 1997, Giles and Trotter 1981}]. Providing a decent linear description of the stable set polytopes of claw-free graphs is a long-standing problem [{\sl Grötschel, Lov\'asz, and Schrijver 1988}]. However, even the problem of finding all facets of stable set polytopes of webs is open. So far, it is only known that stable set polytopes of webs with clique number $\leq 3$ have rank facets only [{\sl Dahl 1999, Trotter 1975}] while there are examples with clique number $\geq 4$ having non-rank facets [{\sl e.g. Liebling et al. 2003, Oriolo 2001, P\^echer and Wagler 2003}]. In this paper, we provide a construction for non-rank facets of stable set polytopes of webs. We use this construction to prove, for several fixed values of $\omega$ including all odd values at least 5, that there are only finitely many webs with clique number $\omega$ whose stable set polytopes admit rank facets only.

    Automatic Construction of Boundary Parametrizations for Geometric Multigrid Solvers (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-13
    Description: We present an algorithm that constructs parametrizations of boundary and interface surfaces automatically. Starting with high-resolution triangulated surfaces describing the computational domains, we iteratively simplify the surfaces yielding a coarse approximation of the boundaries with the same topological type. While simplifying we construct a function that is defined on the coarse surface and whose image is the original surface. This function allows access to the correct shape and surface normals of the original surface as well as to any kind of data defined on it. Such information can be used by geometric multigrid solvers doing adaptive mesh refinement. Our algorithm runs stable on all types of input surfaces, including those that describe domains consisting of several materials. We have used our method with success in different fields and we discuss examples from structural mechanics and biomechanics.

    A Lagrangian Approach for Integrated Network Design and Routing in IP Networks (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-11
    Description: We consider the problem of designing a network that employs a non-bifurcated shortest path routing protocol. The network's nodes and the set of potential links are given together with a set of forecasted end-to-end traffic demands. All relevant hardware components installable at links or nodes are considered. The goal is to simultaneously choose the network's topology, to decide which hardware components to install on which links and nodes, and to find appropriate routing weights such that the overall network cost is minimized. In this paper, we present a mathematical optimization model for this problem and an algorithmic solution approach based on a Lagrangian relaxation. Computational results achieved with this approach for several real-world network planning problems are reported.

    Comparing Restoration Concepts using Optimal Network Configurations with Integrated Hardware and Routing Decisions (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We investigate the impact of link and path restoration on the cost of telecommunication networks. The surprising result is the following: the cost of an optimal network configuration is almost independent of the restoration concept if (i) the installation of network elements (ADMs, DXCs, or routers) and interface cards, (ii) link capacities, and (iii) working and restoration routings are simultaneously optimized. We present a mixed-integer programming model which integrates all these decisions. Using a branch-and-cut algorithm (with column generation to deal with all potential routing paths), we solve structurally different real-world problem instances and show that the cost of optimal solutions is almost independent of the used restoration concept. In addition, we optimize spare capacities for given shortest working paths which are predetermined with respect to different link metrics. In comparison to simultaneous optimization of working and restoration routings, it turns out that this approach does not allow to obtain predictably good results.

    Average Case Analysis of a Hard Dial-a-Ride Problem (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-13
    Description: In the dial-a-ride-problem (DARP) objects have to be moved between given sources and destinations in a transportation network by means of a server. The goal is to find a shortest transportation for the server. We study the DARP when the underlying transportation network forms a caterpillar. This special case is strongly NP-hard in the worst case. We prove that in a probabilistic setting there exists a polynomial time algorithm which almost surely finds an optimal solution. Moreover, with high probability the optimality of the solution found can be certified efficiently. We also examine the complexity of the DARP in a semi-random setting and in the unweighted case.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-01-29
    Description: The paper presents a new affine invariant theory on asymptotic mesh independence of Newton's method in nonlinear PDEs. Compared to earlier attempts, the new approach is both much simpler and more natural from the algorithmic point of view. The theory is exemplified at collocation methods for ODE boundary value problems and at finite element methods for elliptic PDE problems.

    Smoothening Helps: A Probabilistic Analysis of the Multi-Level Feedback Algorithm (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: In this paper we introduce the notion of smoothed competitive analysis of online algorithms. Smoothed analysis has been proposed by [{\sl Spielman and Teng} STOC 2001] to explain the behaviour of algorithms that work well in practice while performing very poorly from a worst case analysis point of view. We apply this notion to analyze the Multi-Level Feedback (MLF) algorithm to minimize the total flow time on a sequence of jobs released over time when the processing time of a job is only known at time of completion. The initial processing times are integers in the range $[1,2^K]$. We use a partial bit randomization model, where the initial processing times are smoothened by changing the $k$ least significant bits under a quite general class of probability distributions. We show that MLF admits a smoothed competitive ratio of $O(max((2^k/\sigma)^3, (2^k/\sigma)^2 2^K-k))$, where $\sigma$ denotes the standard deviation of the distribution. In particular, we obtain a competitive ratio of $O(2^K-k)$ if $\sigma = \Theta(2^k)$. %The analysis holds for an oblivious as well as for a stronger adaptive %adversary. We also prove an $\Omega(2^{K-k})$ lower bound for any deterministic algorithm that is run on processing times smoothened according to the partial bit randomization model. For various other smoothening models, including the additive symmetric smoothening model used by [{\sl Spielman and Teng}], we give a higher lower bound of $\Omega(2^K)$. A direct consequence of our result is also the first average case analysis of MLF. We show a constant expected ratio of the total flow time of MLF to the optimum under several distributions including the uniform distribution.

    A sample path relation for the sojourn times in G/G/1-PS systems and its applications (2003)

    Description: For the general G/G/1 processor sharing (PS) system a sample path result for the sojourn times in a busy period is proved, which yields a relation between the sojourn times under PS and FCFS discipline. In particular, the result provides a formula for the mean sojourn time in G/D/1-PS in terms of the mean sojourn time in the corresponding G/D/1-FCFS, generalizing known results for GI/M/1 and M/GI/1. Extensions of the formula provide the basis for a two-moment approximation of the mean sojourn time in G/GI/1-PS in terms of a related G/D/1-FCFS.

    Molecular Conformation Dynamics and Computational Drug Design (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The paper surveys recent progress in the mathematical modelling and simulation of essential molecular dynamics. Particular emphasis is put on computational drug design wherein time scales of $msec$ up to $min$ play the dominant role. Classical long-term molecular dynamics computations, however, would run into ill-conditioned initial value problems already after time spans of only $psec=10^{-12} sec$. Therefore, in order to obtain results for times of pharmaceutical interest, a combined deterministic-stochastic model is needed. The concept advocated in this paper is the direct identification of metastable conformations together with their life times and their transition patterns. It can be interpreted as a {\em transfer operator} approach corresponding to some underlying hybrid Monte Carlo process, wherein short-term trajectories enter. Once this operator has been discretized, which is a hard problem of its own, a stochastic matrix arises. This matrix is then treated by {\em Perron cluster analysis}, a recently developed cluster analysis method involving the numerical solution of an eigenproblem for a Perron cluster of eigenvalues. In order to avoid the 'curse of dimension', the construction of appropriate boxes for the spatial discretization of the Markov operator requires careful consideration. As a biomolecular example we present a rather recent SARS protease inhibitor.

    RNA 3D-Modeling (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: This article presents a new computational approach to the three-dimensional (3D) modeling of ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequences with unknown spatial structure. The main concept is a mapping of the query sequence onto the 3D structures of a suitable template RNA molecule. This technique called \textit{threading} has originally been developed for the modeling of protein 3D structures. The application to RNA systems bridges the information gap between the growing mass of RNA sequence data and the relatively limited number of available 3D structures. The new RNA threading method is demonstrated on a tRNA model system because sufficient representative 3D structures have experimentally been elucidated and deposited in the public databases. Nevertheless, the method is in principle transferable on all other RNA species. Algorithms are developed that decompose these template structures into their secondary structure elements and gather this information in a specific template database. The best template is chosen with public alignment and secondary structure prediction tools which are integrated in the RNA modeling module. The structural information gathered from the template and the best alignment is combined to establish a comprehensive 3D model of the query sequence. A range of complete tRNA structures has successfully been modeled with the RNA threading method. The prototype module visualizes the models and provides convenient access to the proposed 3D structures. Therefore, the method could give new insight into a variety of RNA systems which in the recent years have become increasingly important as potential new pharmaceutical agents.

Die verf{ü}gbaren technischen und organisatorischen Alternativm{ö}glichkeiten sind normalerweise so vielf{ä}ltig und komplex, dass eine manuelle Planung praktisch nicht m{ö}glich ist. In diesem Artikel wird das Potential und die Methodik der mathematischen Optimierung bei der kostenoptimalen Planung von Kommunikationsnetzen vorgestellt. Als Ausgangspunkt wird exemplarisch eine typische praktische Aufgabe, die Struktur- und Konfigurationsplanung mehrstufiger Telekommunikationsnetzwerke, dargestellt. Anschließend werden kurz die wesentlichen Modellierungstechniken und Verfahrensans{ä}tze der mathematischen Optimierung skizziert. Abschließend gehen wir auf die Planung einer ad{ä}quaten Informations- und Kommunikations- Infrastruktur f{ü}r ein dezentrales Energieversorgungsnetz ein.

    Chromatic Scheduling Polytopes coming from the Bandwidth Allocation Problem in Point-to-Multipoint Radio AccessSystems (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-08-05
    Description: Point-to-Multipoint systems are one kind of radio systems supplying wireless access to voice/data communication networks. Such systems have to be run using a certain frequency spectrum, which typically causes capacity problems. Hence it is, on the one hand, necessary to reuse frequencies but, on the other hand, no interference must be caused thereby. This leads to the bandwidth allocation problem, a special case of so-called chromatic scheduling problems. Both problems are NP-hard, and there exist no polynomial time approximation algorithms with a guaranteed quality. One kind of algorithms which turned out to be successful for many other combinatorial optimization problems uses cutting plane methods. In order to apply such methods, knowledge on the associated polytopes is required. The present paper contributes to this issue, exploring basic properties of chromatic scheduling polytopes and several classes of facet-defining inequalities.

    Assessing Capacity Improvements by Relaying in Cellular Networks (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Relaying -- allowing multiple wireless hops -- is a protocol extension for cellular networks conceived to improve data throughput. Its benefits have only been quantified for small example networks. For assessing its general potential, we define a complex resource allocation\slash{}scheduling problem. Several mathematical models are presented for this problem; while a time-expanded MIP approach turns out intractable, a sophisticated column generation scheme leads to good computational results. We thereby show that for selected cases relaying can increase data throughput by 30\% on the average.

    Minimum Converter Wavelength Assignment in All-Optical Networks (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Finding conflict-free wavelength assignments with a minimum number of required conversions for a routing of the lightpaths is one of the important tasks within the design of all-optical networks. We consider this problem in multi-fiber networks with different types of WDM systems. We give a detailed description of the problem and derive its theoretical complexity. For practical application, we propose several sequential algorithms to compute appropriate wavelength assignments. We also perform computational experiments to evaluate their performance. For the iterative algorithms, we identify characteristic patterns of progression. Two of these algorithms qualify for application in practice.

    Rigid body docking for Virtual Screening (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-09-30
    Description: A recently developed algorithm allows Rigid Body Docking of ligands to proteins, regardless of the accessibility and location of the binding site. The Docking procedure is divided into three subsequent optimization phases, two of which utilize rigid body dynamics. The last one is applied with the ligand already positioned inside the binding pocket and accounts for full flexibility. Initially, a combination of geometrical and force-field based methods is used as a Coarse Docking strategy, considering only Lennard-Jones interactions between the target and pharmaceutically relevant atoms or functional groups. The protein is subjected to a Hot Spot Analysis, which reveals points of high affinity in the protein environment towards these groups. The hot spots are distributed into different subsets according to their group affiliation. The ligand is described as a complementary point set, consisting of the same subsets. Both sets are matched in $\mathrm{I\!R}^{3}$, by superimposing members of the same subsets. In the first instance, steric inhibition is nearly neglected, preventing the system's trajectory from trapping in local minima and thus from finding false positive solutions. Hence the exact location of the binding site can be determined fast and reliably without any additional information. Subsequently, errors resulting from approximations are minimized via finetuning, this time considering both Lennard-Jones and Coulomb forces. Finally, the potential energy of the whole complex is minimized. In a first evaluation, results are rated by a reduced scoring function considering only noncovalent interaction energies. Exemplary Screening results will be given for specific ligands.

    Endnutzerbasierte Online-Fernleihe im KOBV - Kurzbeschreibung (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-13
    Description: Der KOBV setzt für die endnutzerbasierte Online-Fernleihe den Sisis ZFL-Server (Zentraler Fernleih-Server) ein. Mit dem Einsatz des ZFL-Servers können in den Bibliotheken echte Rationalisierungseffekte erzielt werden: Der Server ist in der Lage, Fernleih-Bestellungen an lokale Systeme zu übergeben, so dass sie im lokalen System automatisch - ohne Eingreifen von Bibliotheksmitarbeitern - weiterverarbeitet werden können. Im KOBV können derzeit Sisis- und Aleph-Lokalsysteme diese Schnittstelle voll bedienen. Andere Bibliothekssysteme im KOBV, die diese Schnittstelle nicht bedienen können, werden mittels eines E-Mail-Verfahrens in die Online-Fernleihe integriert. Die vorliegende Kurzbeschreibung der Online-Fernleihe im KOBV soll - im Gegensatz zur Spezifikation, die möglichst vollständig sein sollte - einen leicht verständlichen Einblick in die Abläufe der Online-Fernleihe vermitteln. Nach einem Überblick über zu erwartende Rationalisierungseffekte ist der Ablauf einer Online-Fernleih-Bestellung - veranschaulicht durch eine Graphik mit dem technischen Aufbau im KOBV - kurz dargestellt. \vspace{6mm} {\it Hinweis:} Die von einer Arbeitsgruppe des KOBV erstellte Spezifikation zur Online-Fernleihe ist als ZIB Report 02-30 auf dem Preprint-Server des ZIB veröffentlicht.

    Improved Perron Cluster Analysis (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The problem of clustering data can often be transformed into the problem of finding a hidden block diagonal structure in a stochastic matrix. Deuflhard et al. have proposed an algorithm that state s the number $k$ of clusters and uses the sign structure of $k$ eigenvectors of the stochastic matrix to solve the cluster problem. Recently Weber and Galliat discovered that this system of eigenvectors can easily be transformed into a system of $k$ membership functions or soft characteristic functions describing the clusters. In this article we explain the corresponding cluster algorithm and point out the underlying theory. By means of numerical examples we explain how the grade of membership can be interpreted.

    Navigation in the KOBV-Informationsportal Conceptual View (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The KOBV Informationsportal aims to be a universal gateway to the sources of information hosted by the partner libraries from the Berlin-Brandenburg area. Due to the large number of these sources, an intuitive navigation is an essential component of the portal. The navigation-component should preserve the partner libraries? independence and overcome their administrative and technical differences. This paper proposes a collection-level navigation with four dimensions: the sources? subject areas (e.g. the first two levels of DDC), the sources? type (e.g. e-journals, databases, OPACs, etc.), the sources? location (e.g. Berlin, Brandenburg) / the library that hosts that source and the sources? accessing state (e.g. free, restricted, etc.).

    Dust formation in brown dwarf atmospheres under conditions of driven turbulence (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Based on the knowledge gained from direct numerical simulations which are only possible in the microscale regime, a concept of driven turbulence is presented which allows to enter the mesoscopic scale regime. Here, dust formation under stochastic hydro- and thermodynamic conditions is studied: constructively superimposed stochastic waves initiate dust formation by the creation of singular nucleation events. It, hence, results a varying mean grain size and dust density in space and time. The newly formed dust changes the thermodynamic behavior from almost isotherm to adiabatic and chemically depletes the gas phase.

    Publication Date: 2014-11-11
    Description: Der scharfe Wettbewerb innerhalb der Telekommunikationsbranche zwingt die Netzbetreiber dazu, ihre Investitionen genau zu planen und immer wieder Einsparungsmanahmen durchzuführen. Gleichzeitig ist es jedoch wichtig, die Qualität der angebotenen Dienste zu verbessern, um neue Kunden zu gewinnen und langfristig an sich zu binden. Die mathematische Optimierung bietet sich für viele solcher Aufgabenstellungen als hervorragend geeignetes Planungswerkzeug an. Ziel dieses Artikels ist es, ihre Methodik und ihre Anwendung speziell zur Kosten- und Qualitätsoptimierung in Kommunikationsnetzen vorzustellen. Anhand von vier konkreten Planungsaufgaben aus dem Bereich der Festnetzplanung wird aufgezeigt, wie sich komplexe Zusammenhänge in flexiblen mathematischen Modellen abbilden lassen und welche Verfahren zur automatisierten Bearbeitung der Probleme eingesetzt werden können. Die hier vorgestellten Methoden zeichnen sich insbesondere dadurch aus, dass sie neben hochwertigen Lösungen auch eine Qualittsgarantie liefern, mit der sich die Lsungen fundiert bewerten lassen. Die dokumentierten Ergebnisse aus verschiedenen Industrieprojekten belegen die Eignung und Güte der mathematischen Optimierung für die Praxis.

    Dust in Brown Dwarfs IV. Dust formation and driven turbulence on mesoscopic scales (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Dust formation {in brown dwarf atmospheres} is studied by utilizing a model for driven turbulence in the mesoscopic scale regime. We apply a pseudo-spectral method where waves are created and superimposed {within} a {limited} wavenumber interval. The turbulent kinetic energy distribution follows the Kolmogoroff spectrum which is assumed to be the most likely value. Such superimposed, stochastic waves may occur in a convectively active environment. They cause nucleation fronts and nucleation events and thereby initiate the dust formation process which { continues until} all condensible material is consumed. Small disturbances {are found to} have a large impact on the dust forming system. An initially dust-hostile region, which may originally be optically thin, becomes optically thick in a patchy way showing considerable variations in the dust properties during the formation process. The dust appears in lanes and curls as a result of the interaction with waves, i.e. turbulence, which form larger and larger structures with time. Aiming on a physical understanding of the variability of brown dwarfs, related to structure formation in substellar atmospheres, we work out first necessary criteria for small-scale closure models to be applied in macroscopic simulations of dust forming astrophysical systems.

    The multi-scale dust formation in substellar atmospheres (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Substellar atmospheres are observed to be irregularly variable for which the formation of dust clouds is the most promising candidate explanation. The atmospheric gas is convectively unstable and, last but not least, colliding convective cells are seen as cause for a turbulent fluid field. Since dust formation depends on the local properties of the fluid, turbulence influences the dust formation process and may even allow the dust formation in an initially dust-hostile gas. A regime-wise investigation of dust forming substellar atmospheric situations reveals that the largest scales are determined by the interplay between gravitational settling and convective replenishment which results in a dust-stratified atmosphere. The regime of small scales is determined by the interaction of turbulent fluctuations. Resulting lane-like and curled dust distributions combine to larger and larger structures. We compile necessary criteria for a subgrid model in the frame of large scale simulations as result of our study on small scale turbulence in dust forming gases.

    Description: The solution of scattering problems described by the Helmholtz equation on unbounded domains is of importance for a wide variety of applications, for example in electromagnetics and acoustics. An implementation of a solver for scattering problems based on the programming language Matlab is introduced. The solver relies on the finite-element-method and on the perfectly-matched-layer-method, which allows for the simulation of scattering problems on complex geometries surrounded by inhomogeneous exterior domains. This report gives a number of detailed examples and can be understood as a user manual to the freely accessible code of the solver HelmPole.

    Progressive Retrieval and Hierarchical Visualization of Large Remote Data (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-03-09
    Description: \noindent The size of data sets produced on remote supercomputer facilities frequently exceeds the processing capabilities of local visualization workstations. This phenomenon increasingly limits scientists when analyzing results of large-scale scientific simulations. That problem gets even more prominent in scientific collaborations, spanning large virtual organizations, working on common shared sets of data distributed in Grid environments. In the visualization community, this problem is addressed by distributing the visualization pipeline. In particular, early stages of the pipeline are executed on resources closer to the initial (remote) locations of the data sets. \noindent This paper presents an efficient technique for placing the first two stages of the visualization pipeline (data access and data filter) onto remote resources. This is realized by exploiting the ``extended retrieve'' feature of GridFTP for flexible, high performance access to very large HDF5 files. We reduce the number of network transactions for filtering operations by utilizing a server side data processing plugin, and hence reduce latency overhead compared to GridFTP partial file access. The paper further describes the application of hierarchical rendering techniques on remote uniform data sets, which make use of the remote data filtering stage.

    Description: Relaying is a protocol extension for cellular wireless computer networks; in order to utilize radio resources more efficiently, several hops are allowed within one cell. This paper investigates the principle potential of relaying by casting transmission scheduling as a mathematical optimization problem, namely, a linear program. We analyze the throughput gains showing that, irrespective of the concrete scheduling algorithm, performance gains of up to 30\% on average for concrete example networks are achievable.

    Critical and Anticritical Edges with respect to Perfectness (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We call an edge $e$ of a perfect graph $G$ critical if $G-e$ is imperfect and call $e$ anticritical if $G+e$ is imperfect. The present paper surveys several questions in this context. We ask in which perfect graphs critical and anticritical edges occur and how to detect such edges. The main result by [{\sl Wagler, PhD thesis 2000}] shows that a graph does not admit any critical edge if and only if it is Meyniel. The goal is to order the edges resp.~non-edges of certain perfect graphs s.t. deleting resp.~adding all edges in this order yields a sequence of perfect graphs only. Results of [{\sl Hayward 1985}] and [{\sl Spinrad & Sritharan 1995}] show the existence of such edge orders for weakly triangulated graphs; the line-perfect graphs are precisely these graphs where all edge orders are perfect [{\sl Wagler 2001}]. Such edge orders cannot exist for every subclass of perfect graphs that contains critically resp.~anticritically perfect graphs where deleting resp.~adding an arbitrary edge yields an imperfect graph. We present several examples and properties of such graphs, discuss constructions and characterizations from [{\sl Wagler 1999, Wagler PhD thesis 2000}]. An application of the concept of critically and anticritically perfect graphs is a result due to [{\sl Hougardy & Wagler 2002}] showing that perfectness is an elusive graph property.

    Safe separators for treewidth (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-10
    Description: A set of vertices $S\subseteq V$ is called a safe separator for treewidth, if $S$ is a separator of $G$, and the treewidth of $G$ equals the maximum of the treewidth over all connected components $W$ of $G-S$ of the graph, obtained by making $S$ a clique in the subgraph of $G$, induced by $W\cup S$. We show that such safe separators are a very powerful tool for preprocessing graphs when we want to compute their treewidth. We give several sufficient conditions for separators to be safe, allowing such separators, if existing, to be found in polynomial time. In particular, every minimal separator of size one or two is safe, every minimal separator of size three that does not split off a component with only one vertex is safe, and every minimal separator that is an almost clique is safe; an almost clique is a set of vertices $W$ such that there is a $v\in W$ with $W-\{v\}$ a clique. We report on experiments that show significant reductions of instance sizes for graphs from proba! bilistic networks and frequency assignment.

    Lastbalancierung in Peer-to-Peer Systemen (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-30
    Description: Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Systeme werden u.a. zur Verwaltung von großen Datenmengen benutzt, die auf verschiedene Rechner verteilt sind. Benutzern soll damit der Zugriff auf Daten innerhalb des Systems leicht ermöglicht werden. Damit in P2P Systemen die Daten effizient verteilt und gesucht werden können, existieren Distributed Hash Tables. Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) sind eine Methode, um globale Informationen persistent speichern zu können. Der Wertebereich der Hashfunktion, welche die zu veröffentlichenden Einträge auf Werte abbildet, wird in Abschnitte aufgeteilt, die einzelnen Knoten zugeteilt werden. Die meisten DHTs haben aber ein Problem bei der Verteilung der Last. Die verschiedenen DHT Systeme beruhen meist auf einem identischen Ansatz der Lastverteilung. Die Last wird nur mit Hilfe einer Hashfunktion verteilt. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass diese Funktion die Last gleichmäßig verteilt. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde ein Verfahren zur Last Verteilung entwickelt, simuliert und implementiert. Bei dem Verfahren wird die Last wie bei der Verteilung von Wärme an die Umgebung abgegeben. Es wird mit existierenden Lastbalancierungsalgorithmen verglichen. Mit diesem neuen Verfahren ist es möglich, Last in DHTs besser zu verteilen ohne große Änderungen an den DHTs vorzunehmen. Es wird gezeigt, wie mit dem Verfahren zusätzlich die Fehlertoleranz des P2P Systems erhöht werden kann.
    Description: One of the many uses of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems is the administration of large data sets that are distributed across different computers, with the goal of facilitating user access to files within the system. Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) are designed to enable the efficient distribution and search of files, by allowing global information to be persistently stored. The range of values of the hash function (the possible entries in the published hash table) are assigned to individual nodes. Most DHTs, however, have a problem with load distribution. The various DHT systems usually operate by distributing load equally among nodes. Thus the load is distributed using the help of the hash function. One assumes this function distributes the load evenly. In the context of this work a method of distributing load has been developed, simulated and implemented. With this method load is transferred in a fashion analogous to the dissipation of heat into the environment. Comparisons with existing algorithms for load balancing are drawn. With the new procedure it is possible to better distribute load in DHTs without requiring major changes to the DHTs themselves. It is shown that with the procedure the fault tolerance of P2P systems may also be increased.

    Robust Perron Cluster Analysis in Conformation Dynamics (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The key to molecular conformation dynamics is the direct identification of metastable conformations, which are almost invariant sets of molecular dynamical systems. Once some reversible Markov operator has been discretized, a generalized symmetric stochastic matrix arises. This matrix can be treated by Perron cluster analysis, a rather recent method involving a Perron cluster eigenproblem. The paper presents an improved Perron cluster analysis algorithm, which is more robust than earlier suggestions. Numerical examples are included.

    Demand-wise Shared Protection for Meshed Optical Networks (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-11
    Description: In this paper, a new shared protection mechanism for meshed optical networks is presented. Significant network design cost reductions can be achieved in comparison to the well-known 1+1 protection scheme. Demand-wise Shared Protection (DSP) bases on the diversification of demand routings and exploits the network connectivity to restrict the number of backup lightpaths needed to provide the desired level of prorection. Computational experiments approve the benefits of the concept DSP for cost efficient optical network designs.

    Simulation of the Human Mandible: Comparison of Bone Mineral Density and Stress/Strain Profiles due to Masticatory Muscles' Traction (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-05-10
    Description: The correlation of the inner architecture of bone and its functional loading was already stated by Wolff in 1892. Our objective is to demonstrate this interdependence in the case of the human mandible. For this purpose, stress/strain profiles occuring at a human lateral bite were simulated. Additionally, by a combination of computer graphics modules, a three--dimensional volumetric visualization of bone mineral density could be given. Qualitative correspondences between the density profile of the jaw and the simulated stress/strain profiles could be pointed out. In the long run, this might enable the use of the simulation for diagnosis and prognosis. The solution of the underlying partial differential equations describing linear elastic material behaviour was provided by an adaptive finite element method. Estimates of the discretization errors, local grid refinement, and multilevel techniques guaranteed the reliability and efficiency of the method.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: UMTS is a 3rd generation mobile telecommunication system which enables multi-service and multi-bit rate communication going beyond the possibilities of previous systems. The simulator MoDySim models UMTS in great detail. Characteristics of UMTS such as soft hand-over and the interdependency of load and capacity among neighbouring cells are challenges for the parallelisation of such a system. In this paper we explain how the software was parallelised and present performance results of a UMTS simulation for the city of Berlin.

    A numerical reinvestigation of the Aoki phase with $N_f=2$ Wilson fermions at zero temperature (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We report on a numerical reinvestigation of the Aoki phase in lattice QCD with two flavors of Wilson fermions where the parity-flavor symmetry is spontaneously broken. For this purpose the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm was used and an explicit symmetry-breaking source term $h\bar{\psi} i \gamma_{5} \tau^{3}\psi$ was added to the Wilson fermion action. The order parameter $\langle\bar{\psi}i\gamma_{5}\tau^{3}\psi\rangle$ was studied at several values of $(\beta,\kappa,h)$ on lattices of sizes $4^4$ to $12^4$. Our largest lattices can be considered as infintely large allowing to extrapolate to $h=0$. The existence of a parity-flavor-breaking phase can be confirmed at $\beta=4.0$ and $\beta=4.3$ while we find no sign of parity-flavor-breaking at $\beta=4.6$ and $\beta=5.0$.

    Clustering by using a simplex structure (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: In this paper we interpret clustering as a mapping of data into a simplex. If the data itself has simplicial struture this mapping becomes linear. Spectral analysis is an often used tool for clustering data. We will show that corresponding singular vectors or eigenvectors comprise simplicial structure. Therefore they lead to a cluster algorithm, which consists of a simple linear mapping. An example for this kind of algorithms is the Perron cluster analysis (PCCA). We have applied it in practice to identify metastable sets of molecular dynamical systems. In contrast to other algorithms, this kind of approach provides an a priori criterion to determine the number of clusters. In this paper we extend the ideas to more general problems like clustering of bipartite graphs.

    A new Finite Element realization of the Perfectly Matched Layer Method for Helmholtz scattering problems on polygonal domains in 2D (2003)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-07-07
    Description: In this paper we propose a new finite element realization of the Perfectly Matched Layer method (PML-method). Our approach allows to deal with arbitrary shaped polygonal domains and with certain types of inhomogeneous exterior domains. Among the covered inhomogeneities are open waveguide structures playing an essential role in integrated optics. We give a detailed insight to implementation aspects. Numerical examples show exponential convergence behavior to the exact solution with the thickness of the PML sponge layer.

    Notes: The root-mean-square end-to-end distance has been calculated for a model allowing free rotation about glycoside bonds for the general case of polysaccharides having a disaccharide repeating unit. Numerical estimates are given for several naturally occurring structures based on an idealized pyranose unit in the C1 chair conformation. Extrapolation procedures which make use of the intrinsic viscosity [η] in good solvents to obtain unperturbed dimensions do not represent, data for hyaluronic acid very well, especially at low molecular weights. However, order-of-magnitude estimates suggest that this polymer behaves similarly to other polysaccharides, and probably has stiffer local structure than typical non-ionic synthetic polymers. A double logarithmic plot of the product of [η] and M̄w, the weight-average molecular weight, against the degree of polymerization in the range for M̄w of 104 to 2 × 104 permits a straight-line fit of available data for all the glycosaminoglycans, including heparin and the chondroitin sulfates, as well as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. This result suggests similarity of short-chain hydrodynamic behavior of these polymers.

    Notes: A common approximation for deriving solutions to the Lamm equation is to neglect diffusion. This paper presents a singular perturbation technique that allows one to estimate the band spreading due to nonzero diffusion coefficient. We illustrate the general mathematical technique by its application to sedimentation when pressure effects are important. Comparison of the approximate solution with accurate numerical solutions shows that the relative errors are of the order of 1% both for concentration and concentration gradient for parameters of chemical interest.

    Notes: Glycogen acquires a negative charge in both alkaline and acidic solutions and can move in an electrical field, its mobility being related to the degree of alkalinity or acidity. There is a slight increase in relative viscosity at both ends of the pH spectrum. These effects and the changes in nuclear magnetic resonance as a function of pH are interpreted.

    Studies on the viscosity of solutions of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase and on related hydrodynamic models; effect of toluene on enzyme association (1970)

    Notes: The viscosity of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase solutions was studied at 10 and 20° C in 0.2.M sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7, in the concentration range 0.1-8 mg/ml. A method for the study of the viscosity of very dilute solutions of associating enzymes is described. It was found that the reduced specific viscosity ηsp/c of glutamate dehydrogenase continuously increases with increasing enzyme concentration, from about 4 ml/g at the lowest concentrations to about 16 ml/g at 8 mg/ml. In the presence of 10-3M GTP and 10-3M NADH the viscosity increase is much smaller and the results can be extrapolated to zero enzyme concentration to yield an intrinsic viscosity [η] = 3.2. The values of ηsp/c in phosphate buffer alone apparently extrapolate to the same value of [η], or to a value close to it. We also observe that, in the presence of toluene ηsp/c increases very much more with enzyme concentration: ηsp/c already equals 16 ml/g at a concentration of 0.75 mg/ml. These observations are in good agreement with the hypothesis that the active oligomer of glutamate dehydrogenase (MW = 312,000) associates with increasing enzyme concentration to form linear rodlike polymers of indefinite length. This association is strongly diminished by the addition of 10-3M GTP, 10-3M NADH. Toluene, on the other hand, promotes reversible association to linear polymers of very high molecular weight. The transverse and axial rotary frictional coefficients of macroscopic bodies, similar to a physical model for the structure of glutamate dehydrogenase recently advanced, were determined. Assuming that the viscosity of the model is equal to that of an ellipsoid of rotation with identical frictional coefficients, we calculate [η] = 3.26 ml/g according to Kuhn and 3.20 ml/g according to Simha, for the glutamate dehydrogenase oligomer, in good agreement with the result derived from the study of enzyme solutions.

    Notes: Molecular monolaycrs of poly(β-benzyl L-aspartate) spread at. an air-water interface have been studied. The results obtained both by direct observations on the monlayer and from examination of collapsed films with polarized infrared spectroscopy and electron diffraction are consistent with the presence of right handed α-helices in the mono-layer when the molecular weight is high. When 1% (v/v) isopropanol is present in the subphase the right-handed helix prevails, provided that the monolayer is first spread on water. Monolayers of low molecular weight polymer appear to form the crossed-β structure. Orientated collapsed films of high molecular weight polymer can be converted to the left-handed α-helical and to the ω-conformation, and the mechanisms are discussed. The surface chemistry of this polymer is compared with that of related polymers and a consistent pattern of behavior emerges.

    Characterization of acid-denatured DNA by low-angle light scattering (1970)

    Notes: Low-angle light scattering results reported previously demonstrated that measurements on high molecular weight native DNA must be made at angles below 30° in order to obtain correct molecular weights. Earlier light-scattering data obtained on denaturated DNA at angles above 30° showed no change in molecular weight upon denaturation, even though other techniques clearly showed that strand separation occurred. This paper reports low-angle measurements on solutions of calf thymus and T7 DNA denatured under acidic conditions. The results demonstrate that a halving of molecular weight consistent with strand separation is detected by light scattering only when low-angle data are used to obtain correct molecular weights for native material. As expected from theoretical considerations, the scattering from denatured DNA is a linear function of sin2(θ/2), where θ is the angle of observation. This result shows that anticipated experimental artifacts have no significant effect on the low-angle measurements and demonstrates that the curvature in the scattering envelope observed for native DNA below 30° is an inherent property of the native molecule.

    Notes: The kinetics for the cis-trans isomerization of long-chain poly-L-proline has been studied as a function of pressure, temperature, and solvent composition in the acetic acid + n-propanol solvent system. Our complete kinetic curves were fitted by Monte Carlo techniques, and rate constants for nucleation, growth, and termination were estimated. It was found that for the formation of a cis-helix, high pressure, low temperature, and increased acetic acid content of the solvent, lowered the rate of nucleation relative to growth. The inverse seems to be t rue for the formation of a trans-helix. Molecular models suggest that this behavior of the kinetic constants can be due to the exposure of peptide units to solvent in the transition state for trans nucleation, and the burying of peptide units in the transition state for cis nucleation. It is further suggested from our analysis of complete kinetic curves that at least one of the assumptions usually made in the analysis of relaxation kinetics is invalid for poly-L-proline.

    Notes: Solutions of amylose in ethylenediamine yield a crystalline film complex upon evaporation of solvent. The x-ray analysis indicates the presence of a tetragonal-shaped cell with a symmetry approximating that of space group P212121. The amylose sixfold helix has a diameter of 13.3 Å and a translation period of 8.0Å. Chemical and physical analyses support a complexing ratio of one ethylenediamine molecule to every two glucose units. The structure is nearly identical to any amylose-dimethyl sulfoxide complex previously examined. The square mode of packing arrangement appears to result from complexation between amylose chains. Such complexing indicates a much greater degree of amylose interaction than is observed in amylose complex structures having a hexagonal close-packing arrangement.

    Notes: pH titration measurements of poly- S-carboxymethyl-L-cysteine were undertaken in the aqueous Nacl solution in relation to the β form-random coil transition. The titration curves show a marked molecular weight dependence because of the shortened chain length of materials. Comparison of the optical rotatory dispersion parameter a0 with the titration curve reveals that the titration curve apparently reflects a β structure-random coil transition. The β form of this polymer is assumed to be an intramolecular β form, rather than a β structure stabilized by an intermolecular hydrogen bond, at least in the polymer concentration range considered here. The standard free energy change per amino acid residue for the transition from un-ionized random coil to un-ionized β form is estimated to be about -750 cal/mole residue in the range of 0.005-0.2M NaCl concentration.

    Notes: The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of the four usual deoxymononucleosides, all sixteen deoxydinucleotides, and a number of trinucleotides have been measured. The dimer spectra are quite different from the sum of the spectra of their constituent monomers. This indicates the presence of base-stacked conformations analogous to those found for ribonucleoside diphosphates. The CD spectra of several deoxytrinucleotide diphosphates and single-strand f 1 DNA can be calculated fairly well by using a semi-empirical nearest-neighbor approach. There is little or no effect of terminal phosphate or of salt concentration on the optical properties of most deoxy oligomers. The possibility of simultaneous analysis of mixtures of deoxypurine or deoxypyrimidine sequence isomers has been examined. This seems to be a viable approach for the analysis of purine runs but cannot promise much success for pyrimidine runs.

    Notes: The circular dichroism spectra of all 16 ribodinudeoside phosphates containing the bases adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine have been measured at room temperature and neutral pH. These results are compared with the circular dichroism spectra of the corresponding deoxy compounds. From the optical properties it is clear that the geometry of the base-stacked conformation of ribo compounds must differ substantially from that of deoxy compounds. Because of this, it is not possible to draw firm conclusions about the relative extent of stacking in most ribo and deoxy compounds. The optical rotatory dispersion of about a dozen deoxy and ribodinucleoside phosphates has been studied as a function of temperature. These results confirmed the conclusions drawn earlier from measurements at a single temperature. Several dinucleoside phosphates containing a 2′ → 5′ phosphodiester bond have also been examined. These compounds have a substantial degree of base stacking at room temperature. The geometry of the stacked conformation is different from that of either the normal ribo dimer or the deoxy dimer. The role of the 2′-hydroxyl group in stabilizing base stacked geometries has been examined by studies on C-2′-O-methyl-pC. This compound has optical properties almost identical to those of CpC. This suggests that the effect of the 2′ hydroxyl is felt indirectly through its perturbation of the geometry of the sugar ring rather than directly by hydrogen bonding. It is not possible at present to identify precise conformational differences among deoxy-, ribo-and 2′ → 5′ ribodinucleoside phosphates.

    The influence of single-strand breaks on the kinetics of denaturation of DNA (1970)

    Notes: The influence of single-strand breaks on the kinetics of the relaxation of DNA in a solution of low ionic strength has been investigated by a temperature jump method. The relaxation of DNA after a jump of 0.7 °C in the melting region has been monitored by measuring the extinction at 260 nm. For essentially monodisperse T4 DNA (M = 130 × 106) two distinct relaxation times have been observed, that depend markedly on the initial extent of denaturation 1 - θ. The larger relaxation time decreases from 450 sec to about 300 sec, the smaller one from 55 see to 30 when 1 - θ increases from 0.03 to about 0.8. The dependence of these relaxation times on the average number of single-strand breaks per molecule (p) appears to be very small up to p = 100. However, the relative contribution of the slow process decreases sharply when p increases from 0.6 to 30 and remains nearly constant for larger p. The observations are discussed in the light recent theories of the kinetics of denaturation.

    Notes: Measurements have been made of the intensity of light scattered from aqueous solutions of calf thymus DNA with and without the application of electric fields. For fields approaching 150 V/cm and frequencies below 2.5 KHz, changes (ΔI) of up to 10% in the residual scattered intensity were observed. In agreement with previous dielectric and electric birefringence measurements, a low frequency dispersion of ΔI was observed, from which a rotary diffusion constant (D) of 1200 s-1 was determined. Interpreting the electric field data in terms of the classical dipolar orientation theory led to values of 2.4 × 10-25 cm (7.4 × 10-14 esu) and 4.3 × 10-25 cm (13 × 10-14 esu) for the permanent dipole moment and the anisotropy of the electric polarisabilities respectively. Furthermore the permanent dipole moment was along the major molecular axis and the particles orientated in the field as rigid entities. The zero field data indicated a molecular shape which was not rodlike but corresponded to the Kratky-Porod “stiffness” parameter of x = 24 for the wormlike coil model. Although curved, the molecules appeared to orientate in low-intensity electric fields as rigid, but not rodlike molecules. The implications of this on recent discrepancies in D determined by two or more dynamic relaxation methods is briefly discussed.

    Notes: The buoyant density of T-4 DNA was determined by equilibrium sedimentation in a density gradient, of mixed solutions of cesium and magnesium chlorides and bromides. The preferential hydration was calculated from these data, allowing appropriately for the exchange equilibrium of DNA with Cs+ and Mg++ ions. The charge and intrinsic solvation of the counterions were found to have no appreciable effect on the hydration of the DNA, the extent of solvation depending only on the thermodynamic, activity of the water. Various reasonable hypotheses are discussed to account for these results.

    Notes: Reaction of 27 SMS2 RNA with formaldehyde normally results in an unfolded, 13.4 S form. At acidic pH, however, and under the proper ionic conditions, a compact component sedimenting at 36-40 S was obtained. The molecular weight of this species corresponds to a dinner. The formaldehyde concentration was not critical, and approximately the same number of base pairs had been opened in the compact and in the unfolded form. Presumably dimers, which had been specifically formed under defined conditions, were stabilized by formaldehyde-induced crosslinks. Similar dimers were formed by 16 S and by 23 S ribosomal RNA, but not by tRNA.

    Notes: The change in apparent molal volume φ of DNA on thermal denaturation in carbonate buffer at pH 11.0 has been determined by the dilatometric method. It was found that φ increases sigmoidally during the helix-coil transition. Several methods, including a colorimetric technique that closely simulates the conditions used in the dilatometric experiments, were employed to estimate the protons lost by the DNA during the transition. These measurements indicated that the extent of the proton loss depends on the counterion present, increasing in the order Li+ 〈 Na+ 〈 K+ 〈 Cs+. The major part of the volume changes observed during the denaturation is due to the volume changes expected to accompany the transfer of protons from the bases guanine and thym ne to carbonate ions. As has been previously reported for the denaturation of DNA at neutral pH, the volume change directly due to the change in shape of the polymer molecules is so small as to be experimentally undetectable.

    Notes: The coupling of theoretical optical calculations with experimental data provides a check of the validity of the theory or provides conformational information. The theory was validated by studies in which the approximate conformation was located independently. These studies have shown that a theory restricted to the two lowest energy transitions for each chromophore gives qualitative agreement with experiment. On the other hand, for some of the proline derivatives, the theoretical treatment allows detailed conformational assignments. Both successes and failures in correlating theory with experiment are discussed. The results presented provide a basis for assessing the prospects for relating protein and polypeptide optical activity to their conformations.

    Notes: Ethidium bromide inhibits the formation of ultraviolet-induced pyrimidine dimers in DNA. The efficiency of dimer inhibition increases with increasing energy of the exciting photons. The efficiency of energy transfer from the DNA singlet to the dye singlet, as monitored by sensitized fluorescence, is independent of wavelength. The efficiency of singlet-singlet transfer agrees with that for dimer inhibition at photon energies corresponding to excitation of the lowest singlet state of DNA. Our results support a model in which dimers are formed both directly from the singlet state and also from the triplet state, with triplets arising from higher vibrational levels of the singlet.

    Notes: The intercalation model of DNA-hydrocarbon binding appears reasonable, but rests on indirect evidence only. To test the model, a size criterion for binding has been proposed. The size criterion is based on the assumption that hydrophobic forces play a major role in the binding of hydrocarbons to DNA. It states that hydrocarbons which are small enough to intercalate into DNA and be well protected from contact with the medium, will be found to bind to DNA; those that are too large will not. We report results on the binding of fourteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to DNA. Predictions based on the size criterion were found to be valid in all cases tested.

    Notes: The dialysis data of Huang and Ts'o for the cooperative binding of adensine to polyuridylic acid are analyzed here using a grand-partition function Ising model method similar to that originally employed for polyelectrolytes by Rice and Nagasawa. An appropriate modification permitting the treatment of the sliding degeneracy of the two polyuridylic acid strands is also included. In addition to the previously estimated stacking energy of about -6 kcal/mole one also obtains the free energy change F̄ for the transfer of a single adenosine molecule from a fixed site in solution to a fixed site on the polyuridylic acid. This binding energy falls in the range F̄ = -140 to +620 cal/mole, indicating that binding in the 1:2 (purine: pyrimidine) complex is either very weak or repulsive. The absence of any comparable cooperative stacking of adenosines in solution at the same concentration together with the likely repulsive character of the binding implies that the stacking energy must contain a significant contribution from other processes than simple stacking of adenosines. A generalization of the theory to treat multicomponent binding and longer-range interactions is effected, and the form applicable to simultaneous binding of both adenosine and guanosine by polyuridylic acid is presented.

    Notes: The present communication describes a new way of studying helix-random coil transformations of polypeptide, poly-(γ-benzyl L-glutamate), in benzene-trifluoracetic acid (TFA) and chloroform-TFA systems. The difference between the PMR chemical shift of TFA with and without the polypeptide, measured as Δ, may be used to follow the conformational transition. This technique is particularly useful for concentrated solutions, where the PMR peaks of the polymer are so broad that no valuable information may be derived. As the TFA content increases in the system (at constant polymer concentration), Δ decreases normally whether the polymer is helical or random. However, Δ changes in a different way in the helix-random coil transition region, and actually increases with increasing TFA content. This peculiar behavior is explained in terms of the solvation of the helix and random coil structures.

    Notes: A new procedure for evaluating u and σ characterizing σ-helix-forming polypeptides in solution was derived from Nagai's theory for the helix-coil transition of such polymers. Here u is the activity for helix formation from random coil, and σ is the helix initiation parameter. The necessary data are the helical content fN at fixed solvent and temperature as a function of N, where N is the degree of polymerization of the polypeptide sample. Such data were obtained from ORD measurements on a number of fractionated samples of poly-N5-(3-hydroxypropyl)-L-glutamine (PHPG) in mixtures of water and methanol covering the complete range of composition and at various termperatures (5-40°C). When analyzed in terms of the proposed procedure, they yielded values of σ which were in the range (3.2 ± 0.6) × 10-4, substantially independent of solvent composition and temperature. These values were much larger than those obtained recently for σ of poly(β-benzyl-L-aspartate) in m-cresol and in a mixture of chloroform and DCA. The data for [η] and s0 (limiting sedimentation coefficient) as functions of molecular weight indicated that the molecular shape of PHPG in pure methanol is essentially rodlike, whereas that in pure water is not entirely randomly coiled but rather may be regarded as an interrupted helix. These indications were consistent with the results from ORD measurements. When plotted against the corresponding values of fN, the values of [η] and [s0] for PHPG in mixtures of water and methanol of various compositions and temperatures formed smooth composite curves, and we attributed these phenomena to the fact that σ of PHPG was nearly constant under these solvent conditions. Here [s0] stands for a reduced limiting sedimentation coefficient which is equal to the inverse friction factor of the solute molecule.

    Notes: The interaction of purine with DNA, tRNA, poly A, poly C, and poly A. poly U complex was investigated. In the presence of purine, the nucleic acids in coil form (such as denatured DNA, poly A and poly C in neutral solutions, or tRNA) have lower optical rotations. In addition, hydrodynamic studies indicate that in purine solutions the denatured DNA has a higher viscosity and a decreased sedimentation coefficient. These findings indicate that through interaction with purine, the bases along the poly-nucleotide chain are unstacked and are separated farther from each other, resulting in increased assymmetry (and possibly volume) of the whole polymer. Thus, the de-naturation effect of purine reported previously can be explained by this preferential interaction of purine with the bases of nucleic acids in coil form through a hydrophobic-costacking mechanism. Results from studies on optical rotation and helix-coil transition show that the interaction of purine is greater with poly A than with poly C. The influence of temperature, Mg++ concentration, ionic strength, and purine concentration on the effect of purine on nucleic acid conformation has also been investigated. In all these situations the unraveling of nucleic acid conformation occurs at much lower temperatures (20-40°C lower) in the presence of purine (0.2-0.6M).

    Notes: The characteristic ratio of unperturbed cellulose chain was computed as a function of the angle τ at, the bridge oxygen atom and the degree of polymerization. Very high values of the order of 40 or more, depending on the angle at the bridge oxygen atom, have been obtained for this ratio, indicating that cellulose chains are highly extended. The average dimensions of cellulose chains are found to be sensitive even for small changes in the angle at the bridge oxygen, and these chains attain the character of a random coil in very high molecular weight range (degree of polymerization greater than 2000). The large differences in the unperturbed dimensions of cellulosic chains observed in different solvents have been attributed to the possible small changes in the angle τ caused by specific solvent, interactions.

    Notes: The conformational properties of block copolymers of poly-L-leucine in water have been examined. The degree of polymerization of the poly-L-leucine block was 11 and 21, respectively, for samples prepared by the Merrifield procedure, and 56 for a sample prepared by the polymerization of leucine N-carboxyanhydride. The optical rotatory dispersion parameter b0 was used to obtain the helix content θh at various temperatures. Application of the Lifson-Roig theory gave the following parameters for the transition of a residue from a coil to a helical state: v = 0.05-0.011, ΔH = +100 cal/mole, ΔS = +0.70-1.00 e. u. These parameters, as well as those for other polyamino acids, are accounted for by hydrophobic bonds involving the nonpolar side chains in the helical and randomly coiled forms. From the data for poly-L-alanine and theoretical values of the thermodynamic parameters for hydrophobic bond formation, the parameters for formation of a polyglycine helix are computed. By separating the contributions of the backbone, it is possible to obtain a set of thermodynamic parameters for the side-chain contributions of a number of polyamino acids. Increased size of the nonpolar side chain (with a larger contribution from hydrophobic bonding) makes a larger contribution to the stability of the α-helix which is reflected, among other ways, in a higher helix content at given temperature.

    Notes: The polymerization of DL-β-phenylalanine N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) initiated by poly(N-benzylglycine)diethylamide (DEA) and poly(N-methyl-DL-alanine)DEA has been investigated. As previously reported, polysarcosine DEA, poly-N-ethylglycine DEA, and poly-N-n-propylglycine DEA showed marked accelerations in the polymerization of DL-β-phenylalanine NCA as compared with the polymerization initiated by low molecular weight, amines having similar base strength. However, this phenomenon (the chain effect) was not observed with the two polymer catalysts studied in the present investigation With poly-N-methyl-DL-alanine DEA, adsorption of DL-β-phenylalanine NCA onto the polymer chain takes place, though not so effectively as with other polypeptides, so the absence of chain effect was ascribed to a reduced flexibility of the polymer chain. With poly(N-benzylglycine)DEA, the reactivity of terminal base group was found to be much lower than that of other polymer catalysts. However, the absence of the chain effect would be attributed to the rigidity of polymer chain of poly-N-benzylglycine DEA due to the bulkiness of the N-benzyl group.

    Notes: Molecular weights by osmometry (M̄n), light scattering (M̄w), and sedimentation-diffusion (MsD) were determined for selected fractions and unfractionated samples of hyaluronic acid in the molecular weight range 3 × 104-1.7 × 106. For the determination of MsD from the sedimentation coefficient s, a calibration procedure based on the data of Laurent, Ryan, and Pietruszkiewicz gave the following relations in 0.2M NaCl: log (s-1)0 = 14.681 - 0.413 log MsD and log D0 = -3.828 - 0.568 log MsD, where subscript, zero refers to zero concentration and D is the diffusion coefficient. The average Mandelkern-Flory parameter β in 0.2M NaCl is 3.0 × 106. Data for the intrinsic viscosity [η] may be fitted for M 〉 105 by [η] = K′Ma, where K′, a are in 0.2M NaCl, 0.0228, 0.816; in 0.5M NaCl, 0.0318, 0.777; in 0.1 M HCl, 0.0279, 0.763, respectively. Below M = 105, [η] appears to fall below the values calculated, possibly due to non-Gaussian behavior of short chains. The second virial coefficient A2 in 0.5M NaCl approaches the ideal Donnan value, decreasing slightly with increasing molecular weight. The friction parameter P is about 20% smaller than that of uncharged polymers of similar dimensions. The flexible coiling nature of this polymer is confirmed.
