Rigidity of Vertex-Regular Actions on Fuchsian Buildings

Creator:: Smith, Samantha T.
Abstract:: We present a method by which torsion-free groups of automorphisms of a 2-dimensional hyperbolic building which act simply transitively on the vertex set can be constructed, and prove that any such group can be obtained by this construction. The method produces groups defined by finite presentations with strong small cancellation...

Activation, modification and suppression of sex pheromone production in garter snakes

Creator:: Parker, M. Rockwell
Abstract:: Vertebrates communicate with one another and coordinate intraspecific reproduction by using a variety of sexually dimorphic signals, such as plumage, ornaments, sounds, and/or scents. These sexual dimorphisms are maintained by physiological factors, typically sex-specific hormones (though see Chapter 3 for an exception). The purpose of the research in this dissertation...
