Bounds On K-Regular Ramanujan Graphs And Separator Theorems, James Skees
Bounds On K-Regular Ramanujan Graphs And Separator Theorems, James Skees
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Expander graphs are a family of graphs that are highly connected. Finding explicit examples of expander graphs which are also sparse is a difficult problem. The best type of expander graph in a. certain sense is a Ramanujan graph. Families of graphs that have separator theorems fail to be Ramanujan if the vertex set gets sufficiently large. Using separator theorems to get an estimate on the expanding constant of graphs, we get bounds 011 the number of vertices for such fc-regular graphs in order for them to be Ramanujan.

In knot theory, a knot is defined as a closed, non-self-intersecting curve embedded in three-dimensional space that cannot be untangled to produce a simple planar loop. A mathematical knot is essentially a conventional knot tied with rope where the ends of the rope have been glued together. One way to sample large knots is based on choosing a 4-regular Hamiltonian planar graph. A method for generating rooted 4-regular Hamiltonian planar graphs with n vertices is discussed in this thesis. In the generation process of these graphs, some vertices are introduced that can be easily eliminated from the resulting knot diagram. …

A "Sound" Approach To Fourier Transforms: Using Music To Teach Trigonometry, Bruce Kessler
Mathematics Faculty Publications
If a large number of educated people were asked, ``What was your most exciting class?'', odds are that very few of them would answer ``Trigonometry.'' The subject is generally presented in a less-than-exciting fashion, with the repeated caveat that ``you'll need this when you take calculus,'' or ``this has lots of applications'' without ever really seeing many of them. This manuscript addresses how the author is trying to change this tradition by exposing casual students from kindergarten to college to Joseph Fourier's secret, that nearly any function can be built out of sine and cosine curves. And music serves as …
