Object-Free Definition of Categories
Category theory was formalized in Mizar with two different approaches [7], [18] that correspond to those most commonly used [16], [5]. Since there is a one-to-one correspondence between objects and identity morphisms, some authors have used an approach that does not refer to objects as elements of the theory, and are usually indicated as object-free category [1] or as arrowsonly category [16]. In this article is proposed a new definition of an object-free category, introducing the two properties: left composable and right composable, and a simplification of the notation through a symbol, a binary relation between morphisms, that indicates whether the composition is defined. In the final part we define two functions that allow to switch from the two definitions, with and without objects, and it is shown that their composition produces isomorphic categories.Via del Pero 102 54038 Montignoso ItalyJiri Adamek, Horst Herrlich, and George E.

Categorical Pullbacks
The main purpose of this article is to introduce the categorical concept of pullback in Mizar. In the first part of this article we redefine homsets, monomorphisms, epimorpshisms and isomorphisms [7] within a free-object category [1] and it is shown there that ordinal numbers can be considered as categories. Then the pullback is introduced in terms of its universal property and the Pullback Lemma is formalized [15]. In the last part of the article we formalize the pullback of functors [14] and it is also shown that it is not possible to write an equivalent definition in the context of the previous Mizar formalization of category theory [8].Via del Pero 102, 54038 Montignoso, ItalyJiri Adamek, Horst Herrlich, and George E.

Exponential Objects
In the first part of this article we formalize the concepts of terminal and initial object, categorical product [4] and natural transformation within a free-object category [1]. In particular, we show that this definition of natural transformation is equivalent to the standard definition [13]. Then we introduce the exponential object using its universal property and we show the isomorphism between the exponential object of categories and the functor category [12].Via del Pero 102, 54038 Montignoso, ItalyJiri Adamek, Horst Herrlich, and George E.

Optical calibration of large format adaptive mirrors
Adaptive (or deformable) mirrors are widely used as wavefront correctors in
adaptive optics systems. The optical calibration of an adaptive mirror is a
fundamental step during its life-cycle: the process is in facts required to
compute a set of known commands to operate the adaptive optics system, to
compensate alignment and non common-path aberrations, to run chopped or
field-stabilized acquisitions. In this work we present the sequence of
operations for the optical calibration of adaptive mirrors, with a specific
focus on large aperture systems such as the adaptive secondaries. Such systems
will be one of the core components of the extremely large telescopes.
Beyond presenting the optical procedures, we discuss in detail the actors,
their functional requirements and the mutual interactions. A specific emphasys
is put on automation, through a clear identification of inputs, outputs and
quality indicators for each step: due to a high degrees-of-freedom count
(thousands of actuators), an automated approach is preferable to constraint the
cost and schedule. In the end we present some algorithms for the evaluation of
the measurement noise; this point is particularly important since the
calibration setup is typically a large facility in an industrial environment,
where the noise level may be a major show-stopper.Comment: 50 pages. Final report released for the project "Development and test
of a new CGH-based technique with automated calibration for future large
format Adaptive-Optics Mirrors", funded under the INAF -TecnoPRIN 2010.

Nanoparticle-based receptors mimic protein-ligand recognition
The self-assembly of a monolayer of ligands on the surface of noble metal nanoparticles dictates the fundamental nanoparticle\u2019s behavior and its functionality. In this combined computational\u2013experimental study, we analyze the structure, organization, and dynamics of functionalized coating thiols in monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). We explain how functionalized coating thiols self-organize through a delicate and somehow counterintuitive balance of interactions within the monolayer itself and with the solvent. We further describe how the nature and plasticity of these interactions modulate nanoparticle-based chemosensing. Importantly, we found that self-organization of coating thiols can induce the formation of binding pockets in AuNPs. These transient cavities can accommodate small molecules, mimicking protein-ligand recognition, which may explain the selectivity and sensitivity observed for different organic analytes in NMR chemosensing experiments. Thus, our findings advocate for the rational design of tailored coating groups to form specific recognition binding sites on monolayer-protected AuNPs
