Representation Theory, Geometry And Combinatorics Associated To Springer Fibers, Do Kien Hoang

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

This dissertation explores various aspects of Springer fibers and their deep connections to geometric and combinatorial representation theory. It combines the works of [H24a], [H24b], and [H24c] by the author during his PhD. Throughout these works, we explain sophisticated roles of Springer fibers in modern topics like modular representation theory and symplectic duality. Additionally, we resolve several classical questions concerning the Springer correspondence and the cohomology of Springer fibers.

The first project centers around a discretization of a Springer fiber Be. This discretization is a finite set Ye that has appeared in various contexts in representation theory. …

Studies Towards Improving Ni-Catalyzed Cross-Electrophile Coupling Reactions, Haotian Huang

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

This thesis summarizes work towards improving Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reactions through the development of new homogeneous organic electron donors and the understanding of ligand effects on key proposed elementary steps. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the current use of homogeneous organic electron donors and mechanistic understanding in Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reactions. Chapter 2 describes the development of two new types of homogeneous reductants and their catalytic relevance. Chapter 3 details the effects of 6,6′-substituents on bipyridine-ligated Ni catalysts for cross-electrophile coupling. Chapter 4 describes progress towards understanding ligand effects on alkyl radical capture at NiII complexes, a key elementary …

Evaluating Ancient Volcanic Disaster In The Río Grande De Chone, Manabí, Ecuador, Corey Alexander Herrmann

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

Across the world, disasters are increasing in their frequency and in their intensity. This is due to a confluence of factors social (like modern development and population growth) and “natural” (such as the inputs of anthropogenic climate change). Social scientists in anthropology are pursuing the field of disaster anthropology to explore these shifting trends and investigate the human response to disasters today. Archaeologists, in turn, have focused instead on exploring disaster more concretely through identifying exposure to particular hazards, leaving deeper questions of the social character behind disaster processes relatively undertheorized.

Archaeologists working in South America have been quite attuned …

Gene Expression Regulation By Pabpn1 Phosphorylation And Microexon Splicing, Jackson Miles Gordon

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

The processing of pre-mRNAs into mature mRNAs is a key regulatory step in eukaryotic gene expression programs. Before an mRNA can be exported to the cytoplasm, its 5′ end must be modified with a 7-methylguanosine cap structure, intervening non-coding sequence must be removed (spliced), and a poly(A) tail must be synthesized at its 3′ end. Each of these processes are dynamic and provide contextual regulation, tuning an mRNAs coding capacity, stability, and translation potential as needed. The Neugebauer Lab has developed highly specialized tools to dissect how RNAs are spliced, cleaved, and polyadenylated in numerous biological systems. In this study, …

Polynomial-Time Constant-Approximation For Fair Sum-Of-Radii Clustering, Sina Nezhad, Sayan Bandyapadhyay, Tianzhi Chen

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

In a seminal work, Chierichetti et al. [20] introduced the (t,k)-fair clustering problem: Given a set of red points and a set of blue points in a metric space, a clustering is called fair if the number of red points in each cluster is at most t times and at least 1/t times the number of blue points in that cluster. The goal is to compute a fair clustering with at most k clusters that optimizes certain objective function. Considering this problem, they designed a polynomial-time O(1)- and O(t)-approximation for the k-center and the k-median objective, respectively. Recently, Carta et …

“Lost-In-The-Later”: Framework For Quantifying Contextual Grounding In Large Language Models, Yufei Tao, Adam Hiatt, Rahul Seetharaman, Ameeta Agrawal

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

Large language models (LLMs) are capable of leveraging both contextual and parametric knowledge but how they prioritize and integrate these sources remains underexplored. We introduce CoPE, a novel framework for systematically quantifying contextual grounding in LLMs. CoPE distinguishes between contextual knowledge (CK) and parametric knowledge (PK), enabling fine-grained attribution across languages and tasks. Using our newly created MultiWikiAtomic dataset in English, Spanish, and Danish, we analyze how LLMs integrate context, prioritize information, and incorporate PK in open-ended question answering. We find that across models and languages, only around 50 to 76 percent of outputs are grounded in the given context, …

Retrieval-Augmented Feature Generation For Domain-Specific Classification, Xinhao Zhang, Jinghan Zhang, Fengran Mo, Dakshak Keerthi Chandra, Yu-Zhong Chen, Fei Xie, Kunpeng Liu

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

Feature generation can significantly enhance learning outcomes, particularly for tasks with limited data. An effective way to improve feature generation is to expand the current feature space using existing features and enriching the informational content. However, generating new, interpretable features usually requires domain-specific knowledge on top of the existing features. In this paper, we introduce a Retrieval-Augmented Feature Generation method, RAFG, to generate useful and explainable features specific to domain classification tasks. To increase the interpretability of the generated features, we conduct knowledge retrieval among the existing features in the domain to identify potential feature associations. These associations are expected …
