  • On the Remaining Cases of the Kang Park Conjecture in Partition Theory

    Creator:
    Sturman, Leah
    Abstract:
    In 1956, Alder conjectured an integer partition inequality which generalized Euler’s partition identity, the first Rogers-Ramanujan identity, and a partition identity of Schur. Alder’s conjecture, proved in part by Andrews in 1971, followed by Yee in 2008, and finally completed by Alfes, Jameson, and Lemke Oliver in 2010 states that...

  • Exploring the Relationship Between Human Disturbance and Wildlife Behavior in Protected Areas

    Creator:
    St. John, Alyssa
    Abstract:
    Wildlife behavior is a common research topic in conservation studies; however, the relationship between wildlife behavior and human disturbance, specifically in protected areas, is seldom studied. Previous studies have identified relationships between various different types of behaviors of both humans and wildlife, indicating correlations between avoidance behaviors, habituation, and physiological...

  • Establishing Several Infinite Families of Mock and Quantum Modular Forms

    Creator:
    Arnold-Roksandich, Allison F.
    Abstract:
    In 2013, Lemke Oliver created a list of all eta-quotients which are theta functions. Then in 2016, Folsom, Garthwaite, Kang, Swisher, and Treneer utilized this list of ``eta-theta'' functions along with Zwegers's construction of mock theta functions to create a set of mock modular forms which are also quantum modular...

  • Zeros of Replicable Functions

    Creator:
    Toomey, Benjamin J.
    Abstract:
    Following the work of Asai, Kaneko, and Ninomiya for Faber polynomials associated to the modular group, and Bannai, Kojima, and Miezaki's partial proof for the case of the Fricke group of level 2, we show that the zeros of certain modular functions for some low-level genus zero groups associated to...

  • Existence of Eta-Quotients for Squarefree Levels and Modular Type Supercongruences for Hypergeometric Functions

    Creator:
    Allen, Michael
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we consider two problems in number theory, both relating to modular forms. First we consider when a given modular form can be expressed as a quotient in Dedekind's $\eta$ function. Rouse and Webb \cite{RW} have determined the integers $N \leq 500$ such that the graded ring of...

  • Offshore Wind Energy's Role in the United States' Energy Transition

    Creator:
    Erdesz, Krisa (Muller)
    Abstract:
    As the human population grows, the need for alternative and clean forms of energy is greater. The installation of offshore wind energy has been on the rise over the past decade, however the fossil fuel energy generation sectors, such as coal and natural gas, are still major players in the...

  • Fish for the Future: Fisheries Conservation Developments and Lessons Learned from Squaxin Tribal, and Washington State, Salmon Fisheries Management

    Creator:
    Peters, Joseph C.
    Abstract:
    Washington State fisheries and Washington State Treaty Tribes are becoming increasingly restricted in harvest of wild salmon due to US Endangered Species Act listings of salmon species, marine mammal predation by both ESA listed Southern Resident Killer Whale (SRKW) and US Marine Mammal Protection Act protected pinnipeds, salmon habitat destruction,...

    Abstract:
    These essays are an attempt to rebuild memories that explore the nature of work and family. They explore how work knocks against the joints of the body and against the joints between family members, and, as time passes, how the next generation inherits the family line of work only to...

  • Conceiving A Colony: A Multi-Level Biocultural Analysis of the Maternal Stress-Preterm Birth Nexus in Puerto Rico

    Creator:
    Horan, Holly L.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation aims to elicit how a neo-colonial context shapes maternal and infant heath (MIH) outcomes by describing how they are socially, politically, historically, and culturally produced. Using a multi-level critical biocultural, medical anthropological research approach, the purpose of this research was to investigate maternal stress in the United States...
