Modelling the coupling between intracellular calcium release and the cell cycle during cortical brain development (2014)
Journal Article
Barrack, D., Thul, R., & Owen, M. R. (2014). Modelling the coupling between intracellular calcium release and the cell cycle during cortical brain development. Journal of Theoretical Biology, 347, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtbi.2014.01.004

Most neocortical neurons formed during embryonic brain development arise from radial glial cells which communicate, in part, via ATP mediated calcium signals. Although the intercellular signalling mechanisms that regulate radial glia proliferation ar...

Size and shape analysis of error-prone shape data (2014)
Journal Article
Du, J., Dryden, I. L., & Huang, X. (2015). Size and shape analysis of error-prone shape data. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 110(509), https://doi.org/10.1080/01621459.2014.908779

We consider the problem of comparing sizes and shapes of objects when landmark data are prone to measurement error. We show that naive implementation of ordinary Procrustes analysis that ignores measurement error can compromise inference. To account...

Distances and inference for covariance operators (2014)
Journal Article
Pigoli, D., Aston, J. A., Dryden, I. L., & Secchi, P. (2014). Distances and inference for covariance operators. Biometrika, 101(2), https://doi.org/10.1093/biomet/asu008

A framework is developed for inference concerning the covariance operator of a functional random process, where the covariance operator itself is an object of interest for statistical analysis. Distances for comparing positive-definite covariance mat... Read More about Distances and inference for covariance operators.

On the measure of the cut locus of a Fréchet mean (2014)
Journal Article
Le, H., Le, H., & Barden, D. (2014). On the measure of the cut locus of a Fréchet mean. Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 46(4), 698-708. https://doi.org/10.1112/blms/bdu025

One of the fundamental differences between the Central Limit Theorem for empirical Fréchet means obtained in [Kendall and Le, ‘Limit theorems for empirical Fréchet means of independent and non‐identically distributed manifold‐valued random variables’...

Experimental entanglement activation from discord in a programmable quantum measurement (2014)
Journal Article
Adesso, G., D’Ambrosio, V., Nagali, E., Piani, M., & Sciarrino, F. (2014). Experimental entanglement activation from discord in a programmable quantum measurement. Physical Review Letters, 112(14), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.112.140501

In quantum mechanics, observing is not a passive act. Consider a system of two quantum particles A and B: if a measurement apparatus M is used to make an observation on B, the overall state of the system AB will typically be altered. When this happen...

A converse theorem for double Dirichlet series and Shintani zeta functions (2014)
Journal Article
Diamantis, N., & Goldfeld, D. (2014). A converse theorem for double Dirichlet series and Shintani zeta functions. https://doi.org/10.2969/jmsj/06620449

The main aim of this paper is to obtain a converse theorem for double Dirichlet series and use it to show that the Shintani zeta functions which arise in the theory of prehomogeneous vector spaces are actually linear combinations of Mellin transforms...

In quantum metrology quantum properties such as squeezing and entanglement are exploited in the design of a new generation of clocks, sensors and other measurement devices that can outperform their classical counterparts. Applications of great techno... Read More about Quantum metrology for relativistic quantum fields.

The role of inflammation resolution speed in airway smooth muscle mass accumulation in asthma: insight from a theoretical model (2014)
Journal Article
Chernyavsky, I. L., Croisier, H., Chapman, L. A., Kimpton, L. S., Hiorns, J. E., Brook, B., Jensen, O. E., Billington, C. K., Hall, I. P., & Johnson, S. R. (2014). The role of inflammation resolution speed in airway smooth muscle mass accumulation in asthma: insight from a theoretical model. PLoS ONE, 9(3), Article e90162. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0090162

Despite a large amount of in vitro data, the dynamics of airway smooth muscle (ASM) mass increase in the airways of patients with asthma is not well understood. Here, we present a novel mathematical model that describes qualitatively the growth dynam...
