  text: The total energy of an eigenstate in a composite quantum system tends to be
    distributed equally among its constituents. We identify the quantum fluctuation
    around this equipartition principle in the simplest disordered quantum system
    consisting of linear combinations of Wigner matrices. As our main ingredient,
    we prove the Eigenstate Thermalisation Hypothesis and Gaussian fluctuation for
    general quadratic forms of the bulk eigenvectors of Wigner matrices with an arbitrary
    deformation.

  text: Generative Pre-trained Transformer models, known as GPT or OPT, set themselves
    apart through breakthrough performance across complex language modelling tasks,
    but also by their extremely high computational and storage costs. Specifically,
    due to their massive size, even inference for large, highly-accurate GPT models
    may require multiple performant GPUs, which limits the usability of such models.
    While there is emerging work on relieving this pressure via model compression,
    the applicability and performance of existing compression techniques is limited
    by the scale and complexity of GPT models. In this paper, we address this challenge,
    and propose OPTQ, a new one-shot weight quantization method based on approximate
    second-order information, that is both highly-accurate and highly-efficient. Specifically,
    OPTQ can quantize GPT models with 175 billion parameters in approximately four
    GPU hours, reducing the bitwidth down to 3 or 4 bits per weight, with negligible
    accuracy degradation relative to the uncompressed baseline. Our method more than
    doubles the compression gains relative to previously-proposed one-shot quantization
    methods, preserving accuracy, allowing us for the first time to execute an 175
    billion-parameter model inside a single GPU for generative inference. Moreover,
    we also show that our method can still provide reasonable accuracy in the extreme
    quantization regime, in which weights are quantized to 2-bit or even ternary quantization
    levels. We show experimentally that these improvements can be leveraged for end-to-end
    inference speedups over FP16, of around 3.25x when using high-end GPUs (NVIDIA
    A100) and 4.5x when using more cost-effective ones (NVIDIA A6000). The implementation
    is available at https://github.com/IST-DASLab/gptq.

  text: 'We show for the first time that large-scale generative pretrained transformer
    (GPT) family models can be pruned to at least 50% sparsity in one-shot, without
    any retraining, at minimal loss of accuracy. This is achieved via a new pruning
    method called SparseGPT, specifically designed to work efficiently and accurately
    on massive GPT-family models. We can execute SparseGPT on the largest available
    open-source models, OPT-175B and BLOOM-176B, in under 4.5 hours, and can reach
    60% unstructured sparsity with negligible increase in perplexity: remarkably,
    more than 100 billion weights from these models can be ignored at inference time.
    SparseGPT generalizes to semi-structured (2:4 and 4:8) patterns, and is compatible
    with weight quantization approaches. The code is available at: https://github.com/IST-DASLab/sparsegpt.'

  text: 'Fragmented landscapes pose a significant threat to the persistence of species
    as they are highly susceptible to heightened risk of extinction due to the combined
    effects of genetic and demographic factors such as genetic drift and demographic
    stochasticity. This paper explores the intricate interplay between genetic load
    and extinction risk within metapopulations with a focus on understanding the impact
    of eco-evolutionary feedback mechanisms. We distinguish between two models of
    selection: soft selection, characterised by subpopulations maintaining carrying
    capacity despite load, and hard selection, where load can significantly affect
    population size. Within the soft selection framework, we investigate the impact
    of gene flow on genetic load at a single locus, while also considering the effect
    of selection strength and dominance coefficient. We subsequently build on this
    to examine how gene flow influences both population size and load under hard selection
    as well as identify critical thresholds for metapopulation persistence. Our analysis
    employs the diffusion, semi-deterministic and effective migration approximations.
    Our findings reveal that under soft selection, even modest levels of migration
    can significantly alleviate the burden of load. In sharp contrast, with hard selection,
    a much higher degree of gene flow is required to mitigate load and prevent the
    collapse of the metapopulation. Overall, this study sheds light into the crucial
    role migration plays in shaping the dynamics of genetic load and extinction risk
    in fragmented landscapes, offering valuable insights for conservation strategies
    and the preservation of diversity in a changing world.'

  text: Regulation of the Arp2/3 complex is required for productive nucleation of
    branched actin networks. An emerging aspect of regulation is the incorporation
    of subunit isoforms into the Arp2/3 complex. Specifically, both ArpC5 subunit
    isoforms, ArpC5 and ArpC5L, have been reported to fine-tune nucleation activity
    and branch junction stability. We have combined reverse genetics and cellular
    structural biology to describe how ArpC5 and ArpC5L differentially affect cell
    migration. Both define the structural stability of ArpC1 in branch junctions and,
    in turn, by determining protrusion characteristics, affect protein dynamics and
    actin network ultrastructure. ArpC5 isoforms also affect the positioning of members
    of the Ena/Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) family of actin filament
    elongators, which mediate ArpC5 isoform–specific effects on the actin assembly
    level. Our results suggest that ArpC5 and Ena/VASP proteins are part of a signaling
    pathway enhancing cell migration.</jats:p>

  text: "Contractive coupling rates have been recently introduced by Conforti as a\r\ntool
    to establish convex Sobolev inequalities (including modified log-Sobolev\r\nand
    Poincar\\'{e} inequality) for some classes of Markov chains. In this work,\r\nwe
    show how contractive coupling rates can also be used to prove stronger\r\ninequalities,
    in the form of curvature lower bounds for Markov chains and\r\ngeodesic convexity
    of entropic functionals. We illustrate this in several\r\nexamples discussed by
    Conforti, where in particular, after appropriately\r\nchoosing a parameter function,
    we establish positive curvature in the entropic\r\nand (discrete) Bakry--\\'{E}mery
    sense. In addition, we recall and give\r\nstraightforward generalizations of some
    notions of coarse Ricci curvature, and\r\nwe discuss some of their properties
    and relations with the concepts of\r\ncouplings and coupling rates: as an application,
    we show exponential\r\ncontraction of the $p$-Wasserstein distance for the heat
    flow in the\r\naforementioned examples."

  text: 'Communication-reduction techniques are a popular way to improve scalability
    in data-parallel training of deep neural networks (DNNs). The recent emergence
    of large language models such as GPT has created the need for new approaches to
    exploit data-parallelism. Among these, fully-sharded data parallel (FSDP) training
    is highly popular, yet it still encounters scalability bottlenecks. One reason
    is that applying compression techniques to FSDP is challenging: as the vast majority
    of the communication involves the model’s weights, direct compression alters convergence
    and leads to accuracy loss. We present QSDP, a variant of FSDP which supports
    both gradient and weight quantization with theoretical guarantees, is simple to
    implement and has essentially no overheads. To derive QSDP we prove that a natural
    modification of SGD achieves convergence even when we only maintain quantized
    weights, and thus the domain over which we train consists of quantized points
    and is, therefore, highly non-convex. We validate this approach by training GPT-family
    models with up to 1.3 billion parameters on a multi-node cluster. Experiments
    show that QSDP preserves model accuracy, while completely removing the communication
    bottlenecks of FSDP, providing end-to-end speedups of up to 2.2x.'

  text: We prove that a class of weakly perturbed Hamiltonians of the form $H_λ= H_0
    + λW$, with $W$ being a Wigner matrix, exhibits prethermalization. That is, the
    time evolution generated by $H_λ$ relaxes to its ultimate thermal state via an
    intermediate prethermal state with a lifetime of order $λ^{-2}$. Moreover, we
    obtain a general relaxation formula, expressing the perturbed dynamics via the

  text: Consider the random variable $\mathrm{Tr}( f_1(W)A_1\dots f_k(W)A_k)$ where
    $W$ is an $N\times N$ Hermitian Wigner matrix, $k\in\mathbb{N}$, and choose (possibly
    $N$-dependent) regular functions $f_1,\dots, f_k$ as well as bounded deterministic
    matrices $A_1,\dots,A_k$. We give a functional central limit theorem showing that
    the fluctuations around the expectation are Gaussian. Moreover, we determine the
    limiting covariance structure and give explicit error bounds in terms of the scaling
    of $f_1,\dots,f_k$ and the number of traceless matrices among $A_1,\dots,A_k$,
    thus extending the results of [Cipolloni, Erdős, Schröder 2023] to products of
    arbitrary length $k\geq2$. As an application, we consider the fluctuation of $\mathrm{Tr}(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}
    tW}A_1\mathrm{e}^{-\mathrm{i} tW}A_2)$ around its thermal value $\mathrm{Tr}(A_1)\mathrm{Tr}(A_2)$
    when $t$ is large and give an explicit formula for the variance.

  text: "The process of detecting and evaluating sensory information to guide behaviour
    is termed perceptual decision-making (PDM), and is critical for the ability of
    an organism to interact with its external world. Individuals with autism, a neurodevelopmental
    condition primarily characterised by social and communication difficulties, frequently
    exhibit altered sensory processing and PDM difficulties are widely reported. Recent
    technological advancements have pushed forward our understanding of the genetic
    changes accompanying this condition, however our understanding of how these mutations
    affect the function of specific neuronal circuits and bring about the corresponding
    behavioural changes remains limited. Here, we use an innate PDM task, the looming
    avoidance response (LAR) paradigm, to identify a convergent behavioural abnormality
    across three molecularly distinct genetic mouse models of autism (Cul3, Setd5
    and Ptchd1). Although mutant mice can rapidly detect threatening visual stimuli,
    their responses are consistently delayed, requiring longer to initiate an appropriate
    response than their wild-type siblings. Mutant animals show abnormal adaptation
    in both their stimulus- evoked escape responses and exploratory dynamics following
    repeated stimulus presentations. Similarly delayed behavioural responses are observed
    in wild-type animals when faced with more ambiguous threats, suggesting the mutant
    phenotype could arise from a dysfunction in the flexible control of this PDM process.\r\nOur
    knowledge of the core neuronal circuitry mediating the LAR facilitated a detailed
    dissection of the neuronal mechanisms underlying the behavioural impairment. In
    vivo extracellular recording revealed that visual responses were unaffected within
    a key brain region for the rapid processing of visual threats, the superior colliculus
    (SC), indicating that the behavioural delay was unlikely to originate from sensory
    impairments. Delayed behavioural responses were recapitulated in the Setd5 model
    following optogenetic stimulation of the excitatory output neurons of the SC,
    which are known to mediate escape initiation through the activation of cells in
    the underlying dorsal periaqueductal grey (dPAG). In vitro patch-clamp recordings
    of dPAG cells uncovered a stark hypoexcitability phenotype in two out of the three
    genetic models investigated (Setd5 and Ptchd1), that in Setd5, is mediated by
    the misregulation of voltage-gated potassium channels. Overall, our results show
    that the ability to use visual information to drive efficient escape responses
    is impaired in three diverse genetic mouse models of autism and that, in one of
    the models studied, this behavioural delay likely originates from differences
    in the intrinsic excitability of a key subcortical node, the dPAG. Furthermore,
    this work showcases the use of an innate behavioural paradigm to mechanistically
    dissect PDM processes in autism."

  text: "Superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures currently capture a significant
    amount of research interest and they serve as the physical platform in many proposals
    towards topological quantum computation.\r\nDespite being under extensive investigations,
    historically using transport techniques, the basic properties of the interface
    between the superconductor and the semiconductor remain to be understood.\r\n\r\nIn
    this thesis, two separate studies on the Al-InAs heterostructures are reported
    with the first focusing on the physics of the material motivated by the emergence
    of a new phase, the Bogoliubov-Fermi surface. \r\nThe second focuses on a technological
    application, a gate-tunable Josephson parametric amplifier.\r\n\r\nIn the first
    study, we investigate the hypothesized unconventional nature of the induced superconductivity
    at the interface between the Al thin film and the InAs quantum well.\r\nWe embed
    a two-dimensional Al-InAs hybrid system in a resonant microwave circuit allowing
    measurements of change in inductance.\r\nThe behaviour of the resonance in a range
    of temperature and in-plane magnetic field has been studied and compared with
    the theory of conventional s-wave superconductor and a two-component theory that
    includes both contribution of the $s$-wave pairing in Al and the intraband $p
    \\pm ip$ pairing in InAs.\r\nMeasuring the temperature dependence of resonant
    frequency, no discrepancy is found between data and the conventional theory.\r\nWe
    observe the breakdown of superconductivity due to an applied magnetic field which
    contradicts the conventional theory.\r\nIn contrast, the data can be captured
    quantitatively by fitting to a two-component model.\r\nWe find the evidence of
    the intraband $p \\pm ip$ pairing in the InAs and the emergence of the Bogoliubov-Fermi
    surfaces due to magnetic field with the characteristic value $B^* = 0.33~\\mathrm{T}$.\r\nFrom
    the fits, the sheet resistance of Al, the carrier density and mobility in InAs
    are determined.\r\nBy systematically studying the anisotropy of the circuit response,
    we find weak anisotropy for $B < B^*$ and increasingly strong anisotropy for $B
    > B^*$ resulting in a pronounced two-lobe structure in polar plot of frequency
    versus field angle.\r\nStrong resemblance between the field dependence of dissipation
    and superfluid density hints at a hidden signature of the Bogoliubov-Fermi surface
    that is burried in the dissipation data.\r\n\r\nIn the second study, we realize
    a parametric amplifier with a Josephson field effect transistor as the active
    element.\r\nThe device's modest construction consists of a gated SNS weak link
    embedded at the center of a coplanar waveguide resonator.\r\nBy applying a gate
    voltage, the resonant frequency is field-effect tunable over a range of 2 GHz.\r\nModelling
    the JoFET minimally as a parallel RL circuit, the dissipation introduced by the
    JoFET can be quantitatively related to the gate voltage.\r\nWe observed gate-tunable
    Kerr nonlinearity qualitatively in line with expectation.\r\nThe JoFET amplifier
    has 20 dB of gain, 4 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth, and a 1dB compression point
    of -125.5 dBm when operated at a fixed resonant frequency.\r\nIn general, the
    signal-to-noise ratio is improved by 5-7 dB when the JoFET amplifier is activated
    compared.\r\nThe noise of the measurement chain and insertion loss of relevant
    circuit elements are calibrated to determine the expected and the real noise performance
    of the JoFET amplifier.\r\nAs a quantification of the noise performance, the measured
    total input-referred noise of the JoFET amplifier is in good agreement with the
    estimated expectation which takes device loss into account.\r\nWe found that the
    noise performance of the device reported in this document approaches one photon
    of total input-referred added noise which is the quantum limit imposed in nondegenerate
    parametric amplifier."

    on traits that have a shared\r\ngenetic basis between both sexes, causing a genetic
    sexual conflict. The resolution of\r\nthis conflict mostly relies on the evolution
    of sex-specific expression of the shared genes,\r\nleading to phenotypic sexual
    dimorphism. Such sex-specific gene expression is thought\r\nto evolve via modifications
    of the genetic networks ultimately linked to sex-determining\r\ntranscription
    factors. Although much empirical and theoretical evidence supports this\r\nstandard
    picture of the molecular basis of sexual conflict resolution, there still are
    a\r\nfew open questions regarding the complex array of selective forces driving
    phenotypic\r\ndi↵erentiation between the sexes, as well as the molecular mechanisms
    underlying sexspecific adaptation. I address some of these open questions in my
    PhD thesis.\r\nFirst, how do patterns of phenotypic sexual dimorphism vary within
    populations,\r\nas a response to the temporal and spatial changes in sex-specific
    selective forces? To\r\ntackle this question, I analyze the patterns of sex-specific
    phenotypic variation along\r\nthree life stages and across populations spanning
    the whole geographical range of Rumex\r\nhastatulus, a wind-pollinated angiosperm,
    in the first Chapter of the thesis.\r\nSecond, how do gene expression patterns
    lead to phenotypic dimorphism, and what\r\nare the molecular mechanisms underlying
    the observed transcriptomic variation? I\r\naddress this question by examining
    the sex- and tissue-specific expression variation in\r\nnewly-generated datasets
    of sex-specific expression in heads and gonads of Drosophila\r\nmelanogaster.
    I additionally used two complementary approaches for the study of the\r\ngenetic
    basis of sex di↵erences in gene expression in the second and third Chapters of\r\nthe
    thesis.\r\nThird, how does intersex correlation, thought to be one of the main
    aspects constraining the ability for the two sexes to decouple, interact with
    the evolution of sexual\r\ndimorphism? I develop models of sex-specific stabilizing
    selection, mutation and drift\r\nto formalize common intuition regarding the patterns
    of covariation between intersex\r\ncorrelation and sexual dimorphism in the fourth
    Chapter of the thesis.\r\nAlltogether, the work described in this PhD thesis provides
    useful insights into the\r\nlinks between genetic, transcriptomic and phenotypic
    layers of sex-specific variation,\r\nand contributes to our general understanding
    of the dynamics of sexual dimorphism\r\nevolution."

  text: "The regulatory architecture of gene expression is known to differ substantially
    between sexes in Drosophila, but most studies performed\r\nso far used whole-body
    data and only single crosses, which may have limited their scope to detect patterns
    that are robust across tissues\r\nand biological replicates. Here, we use allele-specific
    gene expression of parental and reciprocal hybrid crosses between 6 Drosophila\r\nmelanogaster
    inbred lines to quantify cis- and trans-regulatory variation in heads and gonads
    of both sexes separately across 3 replicate\r\ncrosses. Our results suggest that
    female and male heads, as well as ovaries, have a similar regulatory architecture.
    On the other hand,\r\ntestes display more and substantially different cis-regulatory
    effects, suggesting that sex differences in the regulatory architecture that\r\nhave
    been previously observed may largely derive from testis-specific effects. We also
    examine the difference in cis-regulatory variation\r\nof genes across different
    levels of sex bias in gonads and heads. Consistent with the idea that intersex
    correlations constrain expression\r\nand can lead to sexual antagonism, we find
    more cis variation in unbiased and moderately biased genes in heads. In ovaries,
    reduced cis\r\nvariation is observed for male-biased genes, suggesting that cis
    variants acting on these genes in males do not lead to changes in ovary\r\nexpression.
    Finally, we examine the dominance patterns of gene expression and find that sex-
    and tissue-specific patterns of inheritance\r\nas well as trans-regulatory variation
    are highly variable across biological crosses, although these were performed in
    highly controlled\r\nexperimental conditions. This highlights the importance of
    using various genetic backgrounds to infer generalizable patterns."

  text: 'High-performance semiconductors rely upon precise control of heat and charge
    transport. This can be achieved by precisely engineering defects in polycrystalline
    solids. There are multiple approaches to preparing such polycrystalline semiconductors,
    and the transformation of solution-processed colloidal nanoparticles is appealing
    because colloidal nanoparticles combine low cost with structural and compositional
    tunability along with rich surface chemistry. However, the multiple processes
    from nanoparticle synthesis to the final bulk nanocomposites are very complex.
    They involve nanoparticle purification, post-synthetic modifications, and finally
    consolidation (thermal treatments and densification). All these properties dictate
    the final material’s composition and microstructure, ultimately affecting its
    functional properties. This thesis explores the synthesis, surface chemistry and
    consolidation of colloidal semiconductor nanoparticles into dense solids. In particular,
    the transformations that take place during these processes, and their effect on
    the material’s transport properties are evaluated. '

  text: "Nonergodic systems, whose out-of-equilibrium dynamics fail to thermalize,
    provide a fascinating research direction both for fundamental reasons and for
    application in state of the art quantum devices.\r\nGoing beyond the description
    of statistical mechanics, ergodicity breaking yields a new paradigm in quantum
    many-body physics, introducing novel phases of matter with no counterpart at equilibrium.\r\nIn
    this Thesis, we address different open questions in the field, focusing on disorder-induced
    many-body localization (MBL) and on weak ergodicity breaking in kinetically constrained
    models.\r\nIn particular, we contribute to the debate about transport in kinetically
    constrained models, studying the effect of $U(1)$ conservation and inversion-symmetry
    breaking in a family of quantum East models.\r\nUsing tensor network techniques,
    we analyze the dynamics of large MBL systems beyond the limit of exact numerical
    methods.\r\nIn this setting, we approach the debated topic of the coexistence
    of localized and thermal eigenstates separated by energy thresholds known as many-body
    mobility edges.\r\nInspired by recent experiments, our work further investigates
    the localization of a small bath induced by the coupling to a large localized
    chain, the so-called MBL proximity effect.\r\n\r\nIn the first Chapter, we introduce
    a family of particle-conserving kinetically constrained models, inspired by the
    quantum East model.\r\nThe system we study features strong inversion-symmetry
    breaking, due to the nature of the correlated hopping.\r\nWe show that these models
    host so-called quantum Hilbert space fragmentation, consisting of disconnected
    subsectors in an entangled basis, and further provide an analytical description
    of this phenomenon.\r\nWe further probe its effect on dynamics of simple product
    states, showing revivals in fidelity and local observalbes.\r\nThe study of dynamics
    within the largest subsector reveals an anomalous transient superdiffusive behavior
    crossing over to slow logarithmic dynamics at later times.\r\nThis work suggests
    that particle conserving constrained models with inversion-symmetry breaking realize
    new universality classes of dynamics and invite their further theoretical and
    experimental studies.\r\n\r\nNext, we use kinetic constraints and disorder to
    design a model with many-body mobility edges in particle density.\r\nThis feature
    allows to study the dynamics of localized and thermal states in large systems
    beyond the limitations of previous studies.\r\nThe time-evolution shows typical
    signatures of localization at small densities, replaced by thermal behavior at
    larger densities.\r\nOur results provide evidence in favor of the stability of
    many-body mobility edges, which was recently challenged by a theoretical argument.\r\nTo
    support our findings, we probe the mechanism proposed as a cause of delocalization
    in many-body localized systems with mobility edges suggesting its ineffectiveness
    in the model studied.\r\n\r\nIn the last Chapter of this Thesis, we address the
    topic of many-body localization proximity effect.\r\nWe study a model inspired
    by recent experiments, featuring Anderson localized coupled to a small bath of
    free hard-core bosons.\r\nThe interaction among the two particle species results
    in non-trivial dynamics, which we probe using tensor network techniques.\r\nOur
    simulations show convincing evidence of many-body localization proximity effect
    when the bath is composed by a single free particle and interactions are strong.\r\nWe
    furthter observe an anomalous entanglement dynamics, which we explain through
    a phenomenological theory.\r\nFinally, we extract highly excited eigenstates of
    large systems, providing supplementary evidence in favor of our findings."

  text: "During navigation, animals can infer the structure of the environment by
    computing the optic flow cues elicited by their own movements, and subsequently
    use this information to instruct proper locomotor actions. These computations
    require a panoramic assessment of the visual environment in order to disambiguate
    similar sensory experiences that may require distinct behavioral responses. The
    estimation of the global motion patterns is therefore essential for successful
    navigation. Yet, our understanding of the algorithms and implementations that
    enable coherent panoramic visual perception remains scarce. Here I pursue this
    problem by dissecting the functional aspects of interneuronal communication in
    the lobula plate tangential cell network in Drosophila melanogaster. The results
    presented in the thesis demonstrate that the basis for effective interpretation
    of the optic flow in this circuit are stereotyped synaptic connections that mediate
    the formation of distinct subnetworks, each extracting a particular pattern of
    global motion. \r\nFirstly, I show that gap junctions are essential for a correct
    interpretation of binocular motion cues by horizontal motion-sensitive cells.
    HS cells form electrical synapses with contralateral H2 neurons that are involved
    in detecting yaw rotation and translation. I developed an FlpStop-mediated mutant
    of a gap junction protein ShakB that disrupts these electrical synapses. While
    the loss of electrical synapses does not affect the tuning of the direction selectivity
    in HS neurons, it severely alters their sensitivity to horizontal motion in the
    contralateral side. These physiological changes result in an inappropriate integration
    of binocular motion cues in walking animals. While wild-type flies form a binocular
    perception of visual motion by non-linear integration of monocular optic flow
    cues, the mutant flies sum the monocular inputs linearly. These results indicate
    that rather than averaging signals in neighboring neurons, gap-junctions operate
    in conjunction with chemical synapses to mediate complex non-linear optic flow
    computations.\r\nSecondly, I show that stochastic manipulation of neuronal activity
    in the lobula plate tangential cell network is a powerful approach to study the
    neuronal implementation of optic flow-based navigation in flies. Tangential neurons
    form multiple subnetworks, each mediating course-stabilizing response to a particular
    global pattern of visual motion. Application of genetic mosaic techniques can
    provide sparse optogenetic activation of HS cells in numerous combinations. These
    distinct combinations of activated neurons drive an array of distinct behavioral
    responses, providing important insights into how visuomotor transformation is
    performed in the lobula plate tangential cell network. This approach can be complemented
    by stochastic silencing of tangential neurons, enabling direct assessment of the
    functional role of individual tangential neurons in the processing of specific
    visual motion patterns.\r\n\tTaken together, the findings presented in this thesis
    suggest that establishing specific activity patterns of tangential cells via stereotyped
    synaptic connectivity is a key to efficient optic flow-based navigation in Drosophila
    melanogaster."

  text: Semiconductor-superconductor hybrid systems are the harbour of many intriguing
    mesoscopic phenomena. This material combination leads to spatial variations of
    the superconducting properties, which gives rise to Andreev bound states (ABSs).
    Some of these states might exhibit remarkable properties that render them highly
    desirable for topological quantum computing. The most prominent and hunted of
    such states are Majorana zero modes (MZMs), quasiparticles equals to their own
    quasiparticles that they follow non-abelian statistics. In this thesis, we first
    introduce the general framework of such hybrid systems and, then, we unveil a
    series of mesoscopic phenomena that we discovered. Firstly, we show tunneling
    spectroscopy experiments on full-shell nanowires (NWs) showing that unwanted quantum-dot
    states coupled to superconductors (Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states) can mimic MZMs signatures.
    Then, we introduce a novel protocol which allowed the integration of tunneling
    spectroscopy with Coulomb spectroscopy within the same device. Employing this
    approach on both full-shell NWs and partial-shell NWs, we demonstrated that longitudinally
    confined states reveal charge transport phenomenology similar to the one expected
    for MZMs. These findings shed light on the intricate interplay between superconductivity
    and quantum confinement, which brought us to explore another material platform,
    i.e. a two-dimensional Germanium hole gas. After developing a robust way to induce
    superconductivity in such system, we showed how to engineer the proximity effect
    and we revealed a superconducting hard gap. Finally, we created a superconducting
    radio frequency driven ideal diode and a generator of non-sinusoidal current-phase
    relations. Our results open the path for the exploration of protected superconducting
    qubits and more complex hybrid devices in planar Germanium, like Kitaev chains
    and hybrid qubit devices.
