Questa tesi esplora vari aspetti su come l'analisi stocastica può aiutare nello studio del comportamento di fluidi turbolenti 2D in domini con bordo. Il bordo può avere un effetto diretto sul comportamento del fluido, influenzando le condizioni al bordo nelle equazioni del moto in forma di velocità o vorticità, o può avere un effetto indirreto introducendo le instabilità generate dal bordo nel sistema e considerando successivamente le proprietà...
The economy is an ecosystem of firms, lenders, and consumers that can only be understood by studying the interaction between the agents that compose it. Firms, heterogeneous in nature and size, constitute a central component of the system. The supply chains that they establish, their organizational structure, and the innovation that they adopt ultimately determine the allocation of resources, employment levels, opportunities for investment, and what goods are produced. As such, production net...
La tesi indaga lo sviluppo della questione relativa alla causalità divina, nel corso della tradizione aristotelica del Rinascimento (fine XV-inizio XVII secolo). La tesi esamina come le categorie causali di finalità ed efficienza sono state applicate al Primo motore, identificato con Dio. Tramite uno studio comprensivo dei punti tematici che caratterizzano la questione della causalità divina, la tesi intende chiarire la posizione dei vari filosofi che presero pa...
According to the World Health Organization, population health monitoring is the first of ten essential public health operations. The emergence of novel data sources and monitoring approaches for public health surveillance is triggered by technological advances in data retrieval and analysis. Monitoring needs to have a central role when it comes to the determinants of health and health inequalities. Health inequalities monitoring provides evidence on who is being left behind and informs equity...
This thesis introduces a family of classical atomistic electromagnetic multiscale models, referred to as ωMM, designed to simulate the optical properties of plasmonic materials with high accuracy and efficiency. Starting from the ωFQ model, originally developed for Drude-like plasmonic materials, the work extends this approach to noble metals by incorporating interband electron transitions. This enables the study of interactions between fully occupied and partially empty electroni...
This doctoral project aims to provide a critical literary profile of Italian short story production in the fifteenth century. The textual corpus under analysis consists of the three vernacular authorial collections from this period: the novella collection attributed to the pseudo-Gentile Sermini, Il Novellino by Masuccio Salernitano, and the Porretane by Sabadino degli Arienti. The study of these works also takes into account other forms of narratio brevis – in both Latin and the vernac...
A. Vistoli proved a decomposition theorem for the rational equivariant algebraic K-theory of a variety under the action of a finite group G. Subsequently, G. Vezzosi and A. Vistoli proved a decomposition theorem for the equivariant K-theory of a noetherian scheme, in the more general case where G is any affine algebraic group (with some mild hypothesis about the action). Moreover, B. Toen defined a Riemann-Roch map from the rational algebraic K-theory of a tame Deligne-Mumford quoti...
The goal of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive study of (vector valued) functions of bounded variation defined on RCD spaces, describing their distributional differential and investigating their fine properties and calculus rules. More precisely, this note begins with a recollection of results already present in the literature, some of which are proved in a slightly different way in comparison to the original references: the ideas and techniques used are still the same, but a caref...
This thesis explores existing and novel methods for extracting knowledge from datawhile preserving users' private information through differentially private machine learning. The central challenge addressed here is handling the sensitivity-utility tradeoff that arises when privatizing queries involving vector averages, which are found everywhere in gradient-based optimization and data science in general. New approaches are thus proposed to provide researchers and practitioners with additional...
Questa tesi presenta un'analisi computazionale per approfondire i meccanismi di segnalazione dei recettori accoppiati a proteine G (GPCR), focalizzandosi sui determinanti di sequenza e struttura che guidano la selettività dell'interazione con le proteine G. Utilizzando strumenti di bioinformatica avanzati come i modelli di linguaggio proteico e AlphaFold (AF), abbiamo esplorato come pattern strutturali e funzionali nei GPCR influenzino i loro profili di segnalazione. Con embedding prot...
