Communication Games, Kimberly I. Noonan
Communication Games, Kimberly I. Noonan
Honors Theses
A communication game combines traditional n-person game theory with graph theory. The result is a model of a bargaining situation where communication is restricted. The game's multilinear extension (MLE), a polynomial that summarizes the solutions of the game, is well known for the case where the graph is a tree or simple cycle. This paper simplifies the computation of MLE of the communication game in the case when the graph is a series of simple cycles. The results are then applied to studying the power of each Canadian province in passing an amendment to the constitution, taking geographic location into …
Ideals Of The Lipschitz Class, Konstantin G. Kulev
Ideals Of The Lipschitz Class, Konstantin G. Kulev
Honors Theses
In this paper, a classification of the closed ideals of the Little Oh Lipschitz class of functions on the interval [0,1] is provided. The technique used to classify the ideals of the class of continuous functions is modified and applied to the Little Oh Lipschitz class. It is shown that every ideal of these two classes has the form I = {f : flE = 0} for some closed set E C [0, 1]. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the same technique cannot be successfully applied to the classification of the closed ideals of the Big Oh Lipschitz class.
Banach Spaces Of Analytic Functions, Michael T. Nimchek
Banach Spaces Of Analytic Functions, Michael T. Nimchek
Honors Theses
In this paper, we explore certain Banach spaces of analytic functions. In particular, we study the space A-1, demonstrating some of its basic properties including non-separability. We ask the question: given a class C of analytic functions on the unit disk D and a sequence [Zn] = 0 for all n? Finally, we explore Mz invariant subspaces of A-1, demonstrating that they may possess the codimension-2 property.
On Quaternionic Pseudo-Random Number Generators, Gary R. Greenfield
On Quaternionic Pseudo-Random Number Generators, Gary R. Greenfield
Department of Math & Statistics Technical Report Series
There is no dearth of published literature on the design, implementation, analysis, or use of pseudo-random number generators or PRNGs. For example, [6] [7] [14] and the references therein, provide a broad overview and firm grounding for the subject. This report complements and elaborates upon the work of McKeever [9], who investigated PRNGs constructed in a non-commutative setting with the target application being so-called cryptographically secure PRNGs as discussed in [12] or [13]. Novel "solutions" to the problem of designing cryptographically secure PRNGS continue to be proposed [1] [2] [10] [15], so despite the caution and skepticism required, the area …
The Use Of Non-Commutative Algebra In Cryptographically Secure Pseudo-Random Number Generators, Brian M. Mckeever
The Use Of Non-Commutative Algebra In Cryptographically Secure Pseudo-Random Number Generators, Brian M. Mckeever
Honors Theses
This thesis begins with a general overview of pseudo-random number generators and some of their applications. This thesis then describes their applications to cryptography, and some additional requirements imposed by cryptography. This thesis then provides an introduction to the ring of quaternions, and discusses how they can be included in pseudo-random number generators. Finally, this thesis provides a description of the performance of these generators.
Invariant Subspaces Of The Harmonic Dirichlet Space With Large Co-Dimension, William T. Ross
Invariant Subspaces Of The Harmonic Dirichlet Space With Large Co-Dimension, William T. Ross
Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications
In this paper, we comment on the complexity of the invariant subspaces (under the bilateral Dirichlet shift f → ζf) of the harmonic Dirichlet space D. Using the sampling theory of Seip and some work on invariant subspaces of Bergman spaces, we will give examples of invariant subspaces F ⊂ D with dim(F/ζF) = n, n ∈ N ∪ {∞}. We will also generalize this to the Dirichlet classes Dα, 0 <α< ∞, as well as the Besov classes Bα p , 1

Bergman Spaces On Disconnected Domains, William T. Ross, Alexandru Aleman, Stefan Richter
Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications
For a bounded region G C C and a compact set K C G, with area measure zero, we will characterize the invariant subspaces M (under f -> zf)of the Bergman space Lpa(G \ K), 1 ≤ p < ∞, which contain Lpa(G) and with dim(M/(z - λ)M) = 1 for all λϵ G \ K. When G \ K is connected, we will see that di\m(M /(z — λ)M) = 1 for all λ ϵ G \ K and thus in this case we will have a complete …

Which groups G contain difference sets with the parameters (v, k, λ)= (q3 + 2q2 , q2 + q, q), where q is a power of a prime p? Constructions of K. Takeuchi, R.L. McFarland, and J.F. Dillon together yield difference sets with these parameters if G contains an elementary abelian group of order q2 in its center. A result of R.J. Turyn implies that if G is abelian and p is self-conjugate modulo the exponent of G, then a necessary condition for existence is that the exponent …
A Survey Of Hadamard Difference Sets, James A. Davis, Jonathan Jedwab
A Survey Of Hadamard Difference Sets, James A. Davis, Jonathan Jedwab
Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications
A (v, k, λ) difference set is a k-element subset D of a group G of order v for which the multiset {d1d2-1 : d1, d2 ∈ D, d1 ≠ d2} contains each nonidentity element of G exactly λ times. A difference set is called abelian, nonabelian or cyclic according to the properties of the underlying group. Difference sets are important in design theory because they are equivalent to symmetric (v, k, λ) designs with a regular automorphism group [L].
Detecting Trends And Patterns In Reliability Data Over Time Using Exponentially Weighted Moving-Averages, Harry F. Martz, Paul H. Kvam
Detecting Trends And Patterns In Reliability Data Over Time Using Exponentially Weighted Moving-Averages, Harry F. Martz, Paul H. Kvam
Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications
A simple, easy-to-use graphical method is presented for use in determining if there is any statistically significant trend or pattern over time in an underlying Poisson event rate of occurrence or binomial failure on demand probability. The method is based on the combined use of both an exponentially weighted moving-average (EWMA) and a Shewhart chart. Two nuclear power plant examples are introduced and used to illustrate the method. The false alarm probability and power when using the combined procedure are also determined for both cases using Monte Carlo simulation. The results indicate that the combined procedure is quite effective in …
