Asymptotic Cones Of Quadratically Defined Sets And Their Applications To Qcqps, Alexander Joyce
Asymptotic Cones Of Quadratically Defined Sets And Their Applications To Qcqps, Alexander Joyce
All Dissertations
Quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs) are a set of optimization problems defined by a quadratic objective function and quadratic constraints. QCQPs cover a diverse set of problems, but the nonconvexity and unboundedness of quadratic constraints lead to difficulties in globally solving a QCQP. This thesis covers properties of unbounded quadratic constraints via a description of the asymptotic cone of a set defined by a single quadratic constraint. A description of the asymptotic cone is provided, including properties such as retractiveness and horizon directions.
Using the characterization of the asymptotic cone, we generalize existing results for bounded quadratically defined regions with …
Random Quotients Of Hyperbolic Groups And Property (T), Prayagdeep Parija
Random Quotients Of Hyperbolic Groups And Property (T), Prayagdeep Parija
Theses and Dissertations
What does a typical quotient of a group look like? Gromov looked at the density model of quotients of free groups. The density parameter $d$ measures the rate of exponential growth of the number of relators compared to the size of the Cayley ball. Using this model, he proved that for $d<1/2$, the typical quotient of a free group is non-elementary hyperbolic. Ollivier extended Gromov's result to show that for $d<1/2$, the typical quotient of many hyperbolic groups is also non-elementary hyperbolic.
Żuk and Kotowski--Kotowski proved that for $d>1/3$, a typical quotient of a free group has Property (T). We show that (in a closely related density model) for $1/3

Bayesian Optimization With Switching Cost: Regret Analysis And Lookahead Variants, Peng Liu, Haowei Wang, Wei Qiyu
Bayesian Optimization With Switching Cost: Regret Analysis And Lookahead Variants, Peng Liu, Haowei Wang, Wei Qiyu
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Bayesian Optimization (BO) has recently received increasing attention due to its efficiency in optimizing expensive-to-evaluate functions. For some practical problems, it is essential to consider the path-dependent switching cost between consecutive sampling locations given a total traveling budget. For example, when using a drone to locate cracks in a building wall or search for lost survivors in the wild, the search path needs to be efficiently planned given the limited battery power of the drone. Tackling such problems requires a careful cost-benefit analysis of candidate locations and balancing exploration and exploitation. In this work, we formulate such a problem as …
Dna Self-Assembly Of Trapezohedral Graphs, Hytham Abdelkarim
Dna Self-Assembly Of Trapezohedral Graphs, Hytham Abdelkarim
Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations
Self-assembly is the process of a collection of components combining to form an organized structure without external direction. DNA self-assembly uses multi-armed DNA molecules as the component building blocks. It is desirable to minimize the material used and to minimize genetic waste in the assembly process. We will be using graph theory as a tool to find optimal solutions to problems in DNA self-assembly. The goal of this research is to develop a method or algorithm that will produce optimal tile sets which will self-assemble into a target DNA complex. We will minimize the number of tile and bond-edge types …

Towards A Psychologically Natural Relation Between Colors And Fuzzy Degrees, Victor L. Timchenko, Yuriy P. Kondratenko, Olga Kosheleva, Vladik Kreinovich, Nguyen Hoang Phuong
Departmental Technical Reports (CS)
A natural way to speed up computations -- in particular, computations that involve processing fuzzy data -- is to use the fastest possible communication medium: light. Light consists of components of different color. So, if we use optical color computations to process fuzzy data, we need to associate fuzzy degrees with colors. One of the main features -- and of the main advantages -- of fuzzy technique is that the corresponding data has intuitive natural meaning: this data comes from words from natural language. It is desirable to preserve this naturalness as much as possible. In particular, it is desirable …
Zeros Of Modular Forms, Daozhou Zhu
Zeros Of Modular Forms, Daozhou Zhu
All Dissertations
Let $E_k(z)$ be the normalized Eisenstein series of weight $k$ for the full modular group $\text{SL}(2, \mathbb{Z})$. It is conjectured that all the zeros of the weight $k+\ell$ cusp form $E_k(z)E_\ell(z)-E_{k+\ell}(z)$ in the standard fundamental domain lie on the boundary. Reitzes, Vulakh and Young \cite{Reitzes17} proved that this statement is true for sufficiently large $k$ and $\ell$. Xue and Zhu \cite{Xue} proved the cases when $\ell=4,6,8$ with $k\geq\ell$, all the zeros of $E_k(z)E_\ell(z)-E_{k+\ell}(z)$ lie on the arc $|z|=1$. For all $k\geq\ell\geq10$, we will use the same method as \cite{Reitzes17} to locate these zeros on the arc $|z|=1$, and improve the …
Algebraic And Integral Closure Of A Polynomial Ring In Its Power Series Ring, Joseph Swanson
Algebraic And Integral Closure Of A Polynomial Ring In Its Power Series Ring, Joseph Swanson
All Dissertations
Let R be a domain. We look at the algebraic and integral closure of a polynomial ring, R[x], in its power series ring, R[[x]]. A power series α(x) ∈ R[[x]] is said to be an algebraic power series if there exists F (x, y) ∈ R[x][y] such that F (x, α(x)) = 0, where F (x, y) ̸ = 0. If F (x, y) is monic, then α(x) is said to be an integral power series. We characterize the units of algebraic and integral power series. We show that the only algebraic power series with infinite radii of convergence are …
Acceleration Methods For Nonlinear Solvers And Application To Fluid Flow Simulations, Duygu Vargun
Acceleration Methods For Nonlinear Solvers And Application To Fluid Flow Simulations, Duygu Vargun
All Dissertations
This thesis studies nonlinear iterative solvers for the simulation of Newtonian and non- Newtonian fluid models with two different approaches: Anderson acceleration (AA), an extrapolation technique that accelerates the convergence rate and improves the robustness of fixed-point iterations schemes, and continuous data assimilation (CDA) which drives the approximate solution towards coarse data measurements or observables by adding a penalty term.
We analyze the properties of nonlinear solvers to apply the AA technique. We consider the Picard iteration for the Bingham equation which models the motion of viscoplastic materials, and the classical iterated penalty Picard and Arrow-Hurwicz iterations for the incompressible …
A Machine Learning Approach To Constructing Ramsey Graphs Leads To The Trahtenbrot-Zykov Problem., Emily Hawboldt
A Machine Learning Approach To Constructing Ramsey Graphs Leads To The Trahtenbrot-Zykov Problem., Emily Hawboldt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Attempts at approaching the well-known and difficult problem of constructing Ramsey graphs via machine learning lead to another difficult problem posed by Zykov in 1963 (now commonly referred to as the Trahtenbrot-Zykov problem): For which graphs F does there exist some graph G such that the neighborhood of every vertex in G induces a subgraph isomorphic to F? Chapter 1 provides a brief introduction to graph theory. Chapter 2 introduces Ramsey theory for graphs. Chapter 3 details a reinforcement learning implementation for Ramsey graph construction. The implementation is based on board game software, specifically the AlphaZero program and its …
Stability Of Cauchy's Equation On Δ+., Holden Wells
Stability Of Cauchy's Equation On Δ+., Holden Wells
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The most famous functional equation f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y) known as Cauchy's equation due to its appearance in the seminal analysis text Cours d'Analyse (Cauchy 1821), was used to understand fundamental aspects of the real numbers and the importance of regularity assumptions in mathematical analysis. Since then, the equation has been abstracted and examined in many contexts. One such examination, introduced by Stanislaw Ulam and furthered by Donald Hyers, was that of stability. Hyers demonstrated that Cauchy's equation exhibited stability over Banach Spaces in the following sense: functions that approximately satisfy Cauchy's equation are approximated with the same level of error by functions …
Reduced Order Modeling And Analysis Of Cardiac Chaos, Tuhin Subhra Das
Reduced Order Modeling And Analysis Of Cardiac Chaos, Tuhin Subhra Das
Doctoral Dissertations
Numerous physiological processes are functioning at the level of cells, tissues and organs in the human body, out of which some are oscillatory and some are non-oscillatory. Networks of coupled oscillators are widely studied in the modeling of oscillatory or rhythmical physiological processes. Phase-isostable reduction is an emerging model reduction strategy that can be used to accurately replicate nonlinear behaviors in dynamical systems for which standard phase reduction techniques fail. We apply strategies of phase reduction, or isostable reductions in biologically motivated problems like eliminating cardiac alternans to alleviate arrhythmia by applying energy-optimal, non-feedback type control solutions.
Cardiac fibrillation caused …
An Exploration Of Absolute Minimal Degree Lifts Of Hyperelliptic Curves, Justin A. Groves
An Exploration Of Absolute Minimal Degree Lifts Of Hyperelliptic Curves, Justin A. Groves
Doctoral Dissertations
For any ordinary elliptic curve E over a field with non-zero characteristic p, there exists an elliptic curve E over the ring of Witt vectors W(E) for which we can lift the Frobenius morphism, called the canonical lift. Voloch and Walker used this theory of canonical liftings of elliptic curves over Witt vectors of length 2 to construct non-linear error-correcting codes for characteristic two. Finotti later proved that for longer lengths of Witt vectors there are better lifts than the canonical. He then proved that, more generally, for hyperelliptic curves one can construct a lifting over …

An Interval-Valued Random Forests, Paul Gaona Partida
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
There is a growing demand for the development of new statistical models and the refinement of established methods to accommodate different data structures. This need arises from the recognition that traditional statistics often assume the value of each observation to be precise, which may not hold true in many real-world scenarios. Factors such as the collection process and technological advancements can introduce imprecision and uncertainty into the data.
For example, consider data collected over a long period of time, where newer measurement tools may offer greater accuracy and provide more information than previous methods. In such cases, it becomes crucial …
Matrix Completion Problems For The Positiveness And Contraction Through Graphs, Louis C. Christopher
Matrix Completion Problems For The Positiveness And Contraction Through Graphs, Louis C. Christopher
Theses and Dissertations
In this work, we study contractive and positive real matrix completion problems which are motivated in part by studies on sparce (or dense) matrices for weighted sparse recovery problems and rating matrices with rating density in recommender systems. Matrix completions problems also have many applications in probability and statistics, chemistry, numerical analysis (e.g. optimization), electrical engineering, and geophysics. In this paper we seek to connect the contractive and positive completion property to a graph theoretic property. We then answer whether the graphs of real symmetric matrices having loops at every vertex have the contractive completion property if and only if …

A Novel Regularized Orthonormalized Partial Least Squares Model For Multi-View Learning, Ce Bian
Mathematics Dissertations
Over the past few years, the size of data dimensions or features has been increasing in various fields of science and engineering, owing to the rapid pace of data collection and the development of more advanced storage methods. However, to handle high-dimensional data, dimensionality reduction is essential before performing classification or regression tasks to eliminate noisy features. There are several numerical methods available for reducing data dimensionality, such as Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). While these methods offer valuable approaches to data dimensionality reduction, they do come with certain limitations. CCA, for …

Stressor: An R Package For Benchmarking Machine Learning Models, Samuel A. Haycock
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Many discipline specific researchers need a way to quickly compare the accuracy of their predictive models to other alternatives. However, many of these researchers are not experienced with multiple programming languages. Python has recently been the leader in machine learning functionality, which includes the PyCaret library that allows users to develop high-performing machine learning models with only a few lines of code. The goal of the stressor package is to help users of the R programming language access the advantages of PyCaret without having to learn Python. This allows the user to leverage R’s powerful data analysis workflows, while simultaneously …

Large Eddy Simulation By Using Wang’S Liutex-Based Subgrid Model, Vishwa Shah
Mathematics Dissertations
Turbulent flows and vortex structures in fluid dynamics have been captivating researchers for decades, owing to their intrinsic complexity and significance in various industrial and natural processes. Despite their fundamental importance, the definition and identification of vortices in turbulent flows continue to pose challenges, and to date, no universally accepted approach exists. This pursuit dates to the pioneering work of Hermann von Helmholtz in the 19th century, when the concept of vortices was first introduced. In 2019, Liu et al. introduced a novel physical quantity termed "Liutex" in scalar, vector, and tensor forms, providing a promising avenue for understanding and …
Recovering Coefficients Of Second-Order Hyperbolic And Plate Equations Via Finite Measurements On The Boundary, Scott Randall Scruggs
Recovering Coefficients Of Second-Order Hyperbolic And Plate Equations Via Finite Measurements On The Boundary, Scott Randall Scruggs
All Dissertations
Abstract In this dissertation, we consider the inverse problem for a second-order hyperbolic equation of recovering n + 3 unknown coefficients defined on an open bounded domain with a smooth enough boundary. We also consider the inverse problem of recovering an unknown coefficient on the Euler- Bernoulli plate equation on a lower-order term again defined on an open bounded domain with a smooth enough boundary. For the second-order hyperbolic equation, we show that we can uniquely and (Lipschitz) stably recover all these coefficients from only using half of the corresponding boundary measurements of their solutions, and for the plate equation, …
Optimal Control Frameworks For Modeling Dynamics And Androgen Deprivation Therapies In Prostate Cancer, Hussein Ed Duweh
Optimal Control Frameworks For Modeling Dynamics And Androgen Deprivation Therapies In Prostate Cancer, Hussein Ed Duweh
Mathematics Dissertations
In this work, we present an optimal control approach for the assessment of treatments in prostate cancer. For this purpose, we use two different approaches, based on differential equations, to model the dynamics of prostate cancer. For the first approach, we use a system of ordinary differential equations (ODE) that model androgen-dependent and independent prostate cancer cell mechanisms. Given some synthetic patient data, we then performed a parameter estimation process by formulating an optimization problem to obtain the coefficients in this model. A second optimal control problem was formulated to obtain optimal androgen suppression therapies. A theoretical analysis of both …
Association Of Lockdown Policies With Covid-19 Early Case Growth Rates In The United States, Anna Barefield
Association Of Lockdown Policies With Covid-19 Early Case Growth Rates In The United States, Anna Barefield
Boise State University Theses and Dissertations
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted essentially the entire globe, infecting over 755 million people worldwide and resulting in over 6.8 million deaths to date. Different countries have had varying levels of success in managing the spread of the pandemic, and the success or lack thereof could be explained by the impact of government intervention, such as lockdown policies, mask mandates, and social distancing advisories. The United States responded particularly poorly to the early pandemic outbreak as compared to other similar countries, due to its lack of coordinated planning to implement effective policies, with large variations in action taken by each …

From a d-sheeted branched covering f : M → N, where M and N are surfaces, one can read off the branch datum
D(f) = {M, N, d, (A1, . . . , Ar)},
where Ai = [ei1, . . . , ein_i] is a partition of d. Furthermore, a relationship between the Euler characteristics between M and N is known, called the Riemann-Hurwitz formula

Unilinear Residuated Lattices, Xiao Zhuang
Unilinear Residuated Lattices, Xiao Zhuang
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
We characterize all residuated lattices that have height equal to 3 and show that the variety they generate has continuum-many subvarieties. More generally, we study unilinear residuated lattices: their lattice is a union of disjoint incomparable chains, with bounds added. We give the characterization of all unilinear residuated lattices. By presenting the constructions and axiomatizations for different classes of unilinear residuated lattices, we conclude that the study of unilinear residuated lattices can be reduced to the study of the ⊤-unital ones. Using the classification of unilinear residuated lattices, the idempotent unilinear residuated lattices are studied and amalgamation property and strong …
The G_2-Hitchin Component Of Triangle Groups: Dimension And Integer Points, Hannah E. Downs
The G_2-Hitchin Component Of Triangle Groups: Dimension And Integer Points, Hannah E. Downs
Doctoral Dissertations
The image of $\PSL(2,\reals)$ under the irreducible representation into $\PSL(7,\reals)$ is contained in the split real form $G_{2}^{4,3}$ of the exceptional Lie group $G_{2}$. This irreducible representation therefore gives a representation $\rho$ of a hyperbolic triangle group $\Gamma(p,q,r)$ into $G_{2}^{4,3}$, and the \textit{Hitchin component} of the representation variety $\Hom(\Gamma(p,q,r),G_{2}^{4,3})$ is the component of $\Hom(\Gamma(p,q,r),G_{2}^{4,3})$ containing $\rho$.
This thesis is in two parts: (i) we give a simple, elementary proof of a formula for the dimension of this Hitchin component, this formula having been obtained earlier in [Alessandrini et al.], \citep{Alessandrini2023}, as part of a wider investigation using Higgs bundle techniques, …

School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
This publication explores the significance of Keyhole Markup Language (KML) in telecommunications, particularly in the context of 5G mmWave RF design and planning. With the advent of 5G mmWave technology, the demand for seamless and efficient network deployments has never been greater. The deployment of small cells and repeaters for 5G mmWave necessitates utmost precision in location accuracy and rapid information exchange during site surveys and evaluations. The challenges of mmWave frequencies, including their limited range and susceptibility to attenuation, intensify the complexity and criticality of this process. Network operators must ensure that the chosen location is devoid of obstacles …
