Homogeneous Operators and Some Irreducible Representations of the Mobius Group
In this report, after recalling the definition of the M¨obius group, we define homogeneous operators, that is, operators T with the property '(T) is unitarily equivalent to T for all ' in the M¨obius group and prove some ... -
Homogenization of certain PDEs and associated optimal control problems on various rough domains
This thesis is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior of partial differential equations (PDEs) and associated boundary and interior optimal control problems in various oscillatory domains. The present thesis ... -
Homogenization of Optimal Control Problems in a Domain with Oscillating Boundary
(2017-11-27)Mathematical theory of homogenization of partial differential equations is relatively a new area of research (30-40 years or so) though the physical and engineering applications were well known. It has tremendous applications ... -
Homogenization of PDEs on oscillating boundary domains with L1 data and optimal control problems
This thesis comprehensively studies the homogenization of partial differential equations (PDEs) and optimal control problems with oscillating coefficients in oscillating domains. After the introduction, the thesis is divided ... -
Hydrodynamic and hydromagnetic instabilities leading to turbulence in astrophysical accretion disks and their connection to laboratory shear flows
Accretion disks are astrophysical objects formed around a denser object, mainly in the form of a disk. In an accretion disk, matter spirals in and falls onto the central object. To match the observations, the underlying ... -
Hyperfine Structure-Measurement in Alkali-metal Atoms and Ytterbium Atom
(2018-02-15)Atomic precision measurements provide a strong testing ground for new theoretical ideas and fundamental laws of physics. Measurement of the Lamb shift in the hydrogen atom is one of the best examples towards this -it ... -
Hyperspectral and Spectropolarimetric Instrumentation for the Solar Atmosphere
The Sun is the closest star whose surface can be resolved to great a detail. Understanding the working of Sun helps in understanding a large fraction of stellar system as it falls under the spectral class G2V which is ... -
Imaging and Spectral Studies of Solar type I Noise Storms at Metric Wavelengths
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-01)Type I noise storms constitute a sizeable fraction of the active-Sun component of solar radiation at meter wavelengths. The storms occur over a prolonged duration as intense, narrow-band spikes, superposed on a low-intensity ... -
Impact of Disorder and Topology in Two Dimensional Systems at Low Carrier Densities
(2018-02-15)Two dimensional (2D) systems with low carrier density is an outstanding platform for studying a wide spectrum of physics. These include both classical and quantum effects, arising from disorder, Coulomb interactions and ... -
Impact of Disorder, Magnetism and Proximity-Induced Superconductivity on Conductance Fluctuations in Graphene
(2018-01-31)The experimental discovery of graphene in 2004 has opened up a new research field in the direction of atomically thin two-dimensional layered materials for exploration of many fundamental research problems and technological ... -
Impact of van der Waals epitaxy on structural and optoelectronic properties of layered solids
Emergence of Graphene, Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and other van der Waals materials promises to rede fine the building blocks of the future materials and technologies. These materials have gained enormous ... -
Implications in substrate recognition, catalysis and drug-design Structural basis for neutralization of ribosome-inactivating proteins by their monoclonal antibodies
Cryptic elements of proteins are not visible in unbound structures but become apparent in ligand/substrate-bound structures. These binary states of cryptic elements in protein structures can impact important aspects of ... -
Inferences on Structure and Function of Proteins from Sequence Data : Development of Methods and Applications
(2018-07-23)Structural and functional annotation of sequences of putative proteins encoded in the newly sequenced genomes pose an important challenge. While much progress has been made towards high throughput experimental techniques ... -
Infinitely Divisible Metrics, Curvature Inequalities And Curvature Formulae
(2014-06-30)The curvature of a contraction T in the Cowen-Douglas class is bounded above by the curvature of the backward shift operator. However, in general, an operator satisfying the curvature inequality need not be contractive. ... -
Influence of local structure and network connectivity on the electrical switching of some Te-based chalcogenide glasses
Chalcogenide glass (ChG) materials have gained wide attention because of their applications in phase change non-volatile memories (PC-RAM), optical rewritable disks (CD-RW and DVD-RW), infrared detection and thermal imaging. ... -
Infrared interaction in surface modified thin film of carbon nanotubes
In the entire study carried out in this thesis work, it has been established that, interfacial interaction of MWCNTs with functional materials like QDs, semiconducting NPs and metal NPs is beneficial towards improving ... -
Insights into Substrate Specificity in Sortase Enzymes from Structural Studies on a Novel Class of Housekeeping Sortase (SrtE) Identifying Functionally Important Cis-Peptide Containing Segments in Proteins and their utility in Molecular Function Annotation
(2018-02-21)Understanding protein function is fundamental to the fields of protein engineering and drug design. While most of the previous efforts in this direction have focused on the sequence-structure-function paradigm, recent ... -
Insights into the genesis and dynamics of the solar spicule forest: aided by simulations and laboratory experiments
The solar atmosphere is embedded with an enormous no of plasma structures with a vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Solar spicules are one of such ubiquitous features of the sun, which are present in millions ... -
