On Interaction In The Two-Way Aov Model Without Replication Including Power Comparisons Of Two Tests For Non-Additivity, Victor John Hegemann Jan 1974

On Interaction In The Two-Way Aov Model Without Replication Including Power Comparisons Of Two Tests For Non-Additivity, Victor John Hegemann

Doctoral Dissertations

"Data analysts have long been concerned with the problem of giving a complete analysis of the two-way crossed classification design with one observation per cell when interaction is present in the data. Conventional tests of hypotheses and statistical inferences are not applicable in this case since an estimate of the error variance is not available. Transformation of the data to additive data has been one solution to this problem; however, interpretation of the physical units of the transformed data is difficult. Recent contributions to the analysis of this design include a test for interaction, a test for testing differences in …


Methods And Applications Of The Mean-Variance Portfolio Selection Model, John W. Marsh Jan 1974

Methods And Applications Of The Mean-Variance Portfolio Selection Model, John W. Marsh

Doctoral Dissertations

"The Mean-Variance portfolio selection model, or Efficient Market model, is examined in terms of the small investor. The performance is first tested on the small sample space of the thirty Dow Jones Industrials. The results show that it is possible to outperform the market by investing in the minimum-variance, or safest, portfolio. The Critical-Line algorithm as developed by Markowitz and modified by Sharpe is used in this analysis.

Since the Critical-Line algorithm is very time-consuming and does not always converge to a solution, an alternate algorithm is developed. This algorithm, referred to as the “Simplified Algorithm”, is designed to find …


On Integrability And L¹ Convergence Of Certain Cosine Sums, John William Garrett Jan 1974

On Integrability And L¹ Convergence Of Certain Cosine Sums, John William Garrett

Doctoral Dissertations

"Rees and Stanojevic altered the standard cosine series and obtained a necessary and sufficient condition for integrability of the altered sum. Here these sums are generalized, and it is shown that such sums converge in L¹-norm"--Abstract, page iv.


Solvability Of Differential Systems Near Singular Points, Leon M. Hall Jan 1974

Solvability Of Differential Systems Near Singular Points, Leon M. Hall

Doctoral Dissertations

"Functional analysis techniques are used to prove a theorem, analogous to the Harris-Sibuya-Weinberg theorem for ordinary differential equations, which yields as corollaries a number of existence theorems for holomorphic solutions of linear functional differential systems of the form zDy'(z) = A(z)y(z) + B(z)y(αz) + C(z)y'(αz) in the neighborhood of the singularity at z = 0"--Abstract, page 2.
