We prove the first hardness results against efficient proof search by quantum algorithms. We show that underLearning with Errors (LWE), the standard lattice-based cryptographic assumption, no quantum algorithm can weaklyautomate TC0-Frege. This extends the line of results of Krajííček and Pudlík(Information and Computation, 1998), Bonet, Pitassi, and Raz (SIAM Journal on Computing, 2000),and Bonet
The objective of this bachelor thesis is to assess the safe haven property of Bitcoin by conducting an augmented Dickey-Fuller test and Engle and Granger cointegration test with price data from the COVID-19 crash. The analysis revealed a cointegration relationship between Bitcoin and the S&P 500, indicating a long-run equilibrium between the two and thus providing evidence against the safe hav
Previous research shows that there exists a procyclicality premium in some large economies like the U.S. However, this study investigates if a procyclicality premium is present in a small open economy like Sweden as well as in some developed countries around the world due to the size of the Swedish economy. The study investigates the monthly excess return of a portfolio based on Sweden and on a po
As the world is becoming a more connected place, organizations become more dependent on infrastructure software such as operating systems and middleware. Infrastructure software and the hardware it is operated on consumes a lot of electricity and in a world where the climate threat is increasingly imminent, aspects of Green IS are more relevant than ever. There are a lot of research done on the ch
The personal is still political as heterosexual romantic relationships are permeated by gender power dynamics. Previous research has shown that men tend to exploit women’s love, appropriate their care, and not reciprocate. This study looks at the impact of feminist values on these established patterns in Switzerland, a country known for being one of the last in western Europe to give women the rig
Strategic thinking is a complex field that consists of more than the concept of strategy. Strategic thinking is important to business success, to maintain a competitive advantage, to strategic planning, and management decision-making. However, this is not an exhaustive list of reasons why strategic thinking is relevant. Research in the science and professional fields have failed to agree on one fi
Inflation targets are set by central banks worldwide to achieve stable and sustainable growth and the possibility of institutional quality affecting the inflationary effect on growth makes it essential to study the inflation-institution-growth relationship. This paper considers whether or not the relationship between inflation and growth is nonlinear in the shape of convexity and if it differs for
Övergripande målet för vår forskning är att undersöka hur miljöfaktorer associerade med utveckling av typ 2-diabetes (T2D) påverkar frisättning av insulin och glukagon från bukspottkörtelns Langerhanska öar. Insulin och glukagon reglerar reciprokt blodets glukosnivåer. Insulin minskar blodglukoskoncentrationer efter måltid, glukagon medverkar till ökade nivåer av glukos vid fasta och ansträngn. ViThe overall objective of our research is to investigate how Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) associated environmental factors effects the islet hormone secretion with a specific focus on how impaired exocytosis is involved in the etiology of the disease. We investigate from a cell physiological perspective the regulation of insulin and glucagon secretion from the pancreatic beta – and alpha cells, respective
Forskningsområdet studerar organiseringen av välfärdspraktiker och de aktörer som verkar där, som professionella, men också som klienter, brukare, volontärer, besökare och liknande. Fokus ligger på det sociala arbetet och dess organisationer. Forskningen bygger därmed vidare på en tradition vid Socialhögskolan i Lund att kritiskt granska institutioner och institutionalisering. Området studerar ockThe research area studies the organization of welfare practitioners and the actors who work there, as professionals, but also as clients, users, volunteers and visitors, with focus on social work and its organizations. The research is thus based on a tradition at the Lund University to critically examine institutions and institutionalization. The area also studies professions, professionalization,
Although survival has improved in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) during the last two decades, thanks to intensified approach upfront and with anti-CD20 targeted treatment, the disease is still regarded as incurable and for the elderly/unfit patient population, there is need for more tolerable and effective treatment options. Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) have demonstrated activity in MC
Research on mental health (MH) help-seeking behavior is still trying to understand influencing factors that hinder individuals in obtaining professional help. This becomes particularly important as young adults show a high prevalence of mental illness (MI) but a low prevalence of seeking help. So far, MH stigma resulting from self-directed and public attitudes, emotions and behaviors has been cons
Johan Malm är forskargruppsledare för den här forskargruppenOur research consists of several branches: 1) Blood coagulation. We perform basic research within the field of blood coagulation, thrombosis, arteriosclerosis and the complement system. Focus is on understanding fundamental mechanisms of the coagulation process which could be used in diagnostics or therapies. 2) Prostate cancer and noninvasive diagnostics. The objective is to satisfy the need for
The overall goal of our research unit is to understand metabolic control of insulin secretion and why it fails in type 2 diabetes (T2D). In recent years, this has meant that we have used information from GWAS (Genome-wide association study) to direct our efforts towards the genes which are actually linked to the development of the disease. To reach this overarching goal, we have worked along tw
