Synthesis and application of bifunctional hypervalent iodine reagents for peptide modification.

Elija Grinhagena

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are responsible for regulating many biological processes in human bodies. PPIs often have a large binding site and often interact through an alpha helical segment. Therefore, the inhibition of PPIs can be difficult using ...

Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning for Assembly of a Spanning Structure

Gabriel Rémi Vallat

In this master thesis, multi-agent reinforcement learning is used to teach robots to build a self-supporting structure connecting two points. To accomplish this task, a physics simulator is first designed using linear programming. Then, the task of buildin ...

Nonsmooth and nonenergetic solutions of PDE’s through convex integration

Carl Johan Peter Johansson

In this Master thesis we explore the convex integration method by S. Müller and V. Šverák and its applications to partial differential equations. In particular, we use it to build very irregular solutions to elliptic systems. We also apply this method to b ...
