D-helix influences dimerization of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter associated with antigen processing 1 (TAP1) nucleotide-binding domain
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017)ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters form a large family of transmembrane importers and exporters. Using two nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs), which form a canonical ATP-sandwich dimer at some point within the transport ... -
D-instantons and String Field Theory
(2023-05-12)In this thesis, we study D-instanton contributions to supergraviton scattering amplitudes in ten-dimensional type IIB superstring theory beyond the leading non-perturbative order. Our computation is based on the ... -
D-modules and finite monodromy
(Springer Nature, 2016)We investigate an analogue of the Grothendieck p-curvature conjecture, where the vanishing of the p-curvature is replaced by the stronger condition, that the module with connection mod p underlies a XDX -module structure. ... -
D-Modules on Spaces of Rational Maps and on Other Generic Data
(2012-12-13)Fix an algebraic curve X. We study the problem of parametrizing geometric data over X, which is only generically defined. E.g., parametrizing generically defined maps from X to a fixed target scheme Y. There are three methods ... -
D-Modules on the Affine Flag Variety and Representations of Affine Kac-Moody Algebras
(American Mathematical Society, 2009)The present paper studies the connection between the category of modules over the affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra at the critical level, and the category of D-modules on the affine flag scheme \(G((t))/I\), where \(I\) is the ... -

The \(D_4\) Root System is Not Universally Optimal
(AK Peters, 2007)We prove that the \(D_4\) root system (equivalently, the set of vertices of the regular 24-cell) is not a universally optimal spherical code. We further conjecture that there is no universally optimal spherical code of 24 ... -

Damped Lyman-alpha absorption by disk galaxies with large redshifts. III - Intermediate-resolution spectroscopy
(IOP Publishing, 1989)New intermediate-resolution spectroscopy for six members of a sample of 68 moderate- to high-redshift QSOs is presented. Evidence is reported which indicates that seven strong absorption features in the QSO spectra are due ... -
The Damping Rates of Embedded Oscillating Starless Cores
(IOP Publishing, 2008)In a previous paper we demonstrated that nonradial hydrodynamic oscillations of a thermally supported (BonnorEbert) sphere embedded in a low-density, high-temperature medium persist for many periods. The predicted column ... -
Dance - Image - Text: Aleksei Remizov’s Poetics of Rewriting
(2022-05-17)This dissertation addresses itself to the enigma of Aleksei Remizov (1877-1957) as a highly original writer of “literature in the second degree.” The key to the work of this archaic modernist lies, I argue, in the idea of ... -
Dance and Instrumental Music in America, 1770-1830: Sources, Repertoire, and Origins
(2016-09-06)This dissertation examines roughly 100 manuscript sources of American instrumental music from roughly 1770-1830, along with related printed and British sources. It proposes different ways of organizing and viewing the ... -
Dances with Things: Material Culture and the Performance of Race
(Duke University Press, 2009)Proceeding from Robyn Wiegman's call for a transition from questions of "why" to "how" with regard to formations of race, this article proposes a heuristic, the "scriptive thing," to analyze ways in which racial subjectivation ... -

Danger Ahead: The Reach-for-Yield Behavioral Transmission Mechanism Across Risky Assets
(2016-07-06)This paper argues for the existence of a reach-for-yield behavioral transmission mechanism which, during low-interest rate periods, drives a higher willingness to pay for dividend yield in various yield assets like high-yield ... -
Dangerous Encounters: Riots, Railways, and the Politics of Difference in French Public Space (1860-2012)
(2013-09-26)This dissertation builds a socio-cultural biography of Paris's Gare du Nord, Europe's largest railway station, from its transnational aims to connect Europe in the nineteenth century, to early twentieth century strikes, ... -
The Dangers of Extreme Counterfactuals
(Oxford University Press, 2006)We address the problem that occurs when inferences about counterfactuals -- predictions, "what if" questions, and causal effects -- are attempted far from the available data. The danger of these extreme counterfactuals is ...
