  • Persistence of Populations in Environments with an Interface

    Creator:
    Rekow, James A.
    Abstract:
    We model a fish population in a spatial region comprising a marine protected area and a fishing ground separated by an interface. The model assumes conservation of biomass density and takes the form of a reaction diffusion equation with a logistic reaction term. At the interface, in addition to continuity...

  • Characterization of binary trees

    Creator:
    Brandstetter, Griffin
    Abstract:
    In "Level Number Sequences for Trees" Flagotet and Prodinger investigate the problem of counting the number of level number sequences associated to binary trees of $n$ binary nodes. I convert this problem into terms of exterior nodes or "leaves" and leaf number sequences. "Polynomial representation" is then defined to address...

  • Predicting the most likely state for a basic geophysical flow : theoretical framework

    Creator:
    Duran, Rodrigo
    Abstract:
    Statistical mechanics studies the probability that a system is in a certain state given one or more constraints which are usually fixed conserved quantities. It is a particularly useful and powerful approach for problems with a large number of degrees of freedom where a complete knowledge of the system is...

  • Arithmetic dynamical questions with local rationality conditions

    Creator:
    Noytaptim, Chatchai
    Abstract:
    We introduce a numerical criterion which allows us to bound the degree of any algebraic integer having all of Galois conjugates in an interval of length less than 4. Using this criterion, we study two arithmetic dynamical questions with local rationality conditions. First, we classify all unicritical polynomials defined over...

  • Stability Analysis of Coupled Discrete Time Systems On an Invariant Cone

    Creator:
    Fletcher, Sally
    Abstract:
    This paper concerns a question that frequently occurs in various applications: Is any dispersal coupling of stable discrete linear systems, also stable? Although it has been known this is not the case, we shall identify a reasonably diverse class of systems for which it is true. We shall employ the...

  • On existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in R3

    Creator:
    Peterson, Samuel H.
    Abstract:
    This thesis is on the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in R3 which govern the velocity of incompressible fluid with viscosity ν. The solution is obtained in the space of tempered distributions on R3 given an initial condition and forcing data which are dominated by...

  • An inner product on adelic measures

    Creator:
    Oberly, Peter J.
    Abstract:
    We define an inner product on a vector space of adelic measures over a number field $K$. We find that the norm induced by this inner product governs weak convergence at each place of $K$. The canonical adelic measure associated to a rational map is in this vector space, and...

  • Proving Limit Theorems for Associated Random Variables via Stein's Method

    Creator:
    Jantai, Wasamon
    Abstract:
    Stein's method initially introduced in 1970 by C. Stein is a powerful technique for bounding the distance between the laws of two real-valued random variables. Stein's method has been used to prove distributional convergence to many standard probability distributions such as normal, multivariate normal, Poisson and Brownian motion approximation. In...

  • Aggregate Path Coupling for the Generalized Curie-Weiss Model

    Creator:
    Barbosa, Bruno
    Abstract:
    The topic of statistical mechanics has been studied for over a century, and it is one of the pillars of modern physics. This theory can be applied to the study of the thermodynamic behavior of large systems of interacting particles, in which case it is referred to as equilibrium statistical...
