Content Management Policy

Collection Management Policies (2015-2020)

The Zach S. Henderson Library Content Management Policy is intended to assist librarians and departmental library representatives in the selection and management of library materials. It assists the librarians in the decision-making process regarding routine acquisitions of resources, including standing orders, assessments of gifts and exchanges, and in establishing priorities to guide decisions on preservation and deselection. The policy is also in part a response to external factors that make the need for written documentation more urgent. These include: the growth in size and complexity of the publishing world, financial pressures that affect the purchasing power of libraries, the proliferation …

An Isomorphism Problem In Z2, Matt Noble

Theory & Applications of Graphs

We consider Euclidean distance graphs with vertex set ℚ² or ℤ² and address the possibility or impossibility of finding isomorphisms between such graphs. It is observed that for any distances d₁, d₂ the non-trivial distance graphs G(ℚ², d₁) and G(ℚ², d₂) are isomorphic. Ultimately it is shown that for distinct primes _p1, _p2 the non-trivial distance graphs G(ℤ², √p1) and G(ℤ², √p2) are not isomorphic. We conclude with a few additional questions related to this work.

The Sensitivity Of A Test Based On Spearman's Rho In Cross-Correlation Change Point Problems, Congjian Liu

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

In change point problems, there are three main questions that researchers are interested in. First of all, is there a change point or not? Second, when does the change point occur in a time series? Third, how quickly can we detect the change point? In this thesis, we first explain what a change point is, and what a cross-correlation is. We then discuss prior research in this area. Then we discuss and examine a test based on Spearman's rho, introduced by Wied and Dehling (2011), which tests the null hypothesis of no change point, and compare the change point we …

Properly Colored Notions Of Connectivity - A Dynamic Survey, Xueliang Li, Colton Magnant

Theory & Applications of Graphs

A path in an edge-colored graph is properly colored if no two consecutive edges receive the same color. In this survey, we gather results concerning notions of graph connectivity involving properly colored paths.

Dynamic Approach To K-Forcing, Yair Caro, Ryan Pepper

Theory & Applications of Graphs

The k-forcing number of a graph is a generalization of the zero forcing number. In this note, we give a greedy algorithm to approximate the k-forcing number of a graph. Using this dynamic approach, we give corollaries which improve upon two theorems from a recent paper of Amos, Caro, Davila and Pepper [2], while also answering an open problem posed by Meyer [9].

Second Hamiltonian Cycles In Claw-Free Graphs, Hossein Esfandiari, Colton Magnant, Pouria Salehi Nowbandegani, Shirdareh Haghighi

Theory & Applications of Graphs

Sheehan conjectured in 1975 that every Hamiltonian regular simple graph of even degree at least four contains a second Hamiltonian cycle. We prove that most claw-free Hamiltonian graphs with minimum degree at least 3 have a second Hamiltonian cycle and describe the structure of those graphs not covered by our result. By this result, we show that Sheehan’s conjecture holds for claw-free graphs whose order is not divisible by 6. In addition, we believe that the structure that we introduce can be useful for further studies on claw-free graphs.

Bounds For The Zero Forcing Number Of Graphs With Large Girth, Randy Davila, Franklin Kenter

Theory & Applications of Graphs

The zero-forcing number, Ζ(G) is an upper bound for the maximum nullity of all symmetric matrices with a sparsity pattern described by the graph. A simple lower bound is δ ≤ Ζ(G) where δ is the minimum degree. An improvement of this bound is provided in the case that G has girth of at least 5. In particular, it is shown that 2δ − 2 ≤ Ζ(G) for graphs with girth of at least 5; this can be further improved when G has a small cut set. Lastly, a conjecture is made regarding a lower bound for Ζ(G) as a …

Connection And Separation In Hypergraphs, Mohammad A. Bahmanian, Mateja Sajna

Theory & Applications of Graphs

In this paper we study various fundamental connectivity properties of hypergraphs from a graph-theoretic perspective, with the emphasis on cut edges, cut vertices, and blocks. We prove a number of new results involving these concepts. In particular, we describe the exact relationship between the block decomposition of a hypergraph and the block decomposition of its incidence graph.

Scheduling N Burgers For A K-Burger Grill: Chromatic Numbers With Restrictions, Peter Johnson, Xiaoya Zha

Theory & Applications of Graphs

The chromatic number has a well-known interpretation in the area of scheduling. If the vertices of a finite, simple graph are committees, and adjacency of two committees indicates that they must never be in session simultaneously, then the chromatic number of the graph is the smallest number of hours during which the committees/vertices of the graph may all have properly scheduled meetings of one continuous hour each. Slivnik [3] showed that the fractional chromatic number can be similarly characterized. In that characterization, the meetings are allowed to be broken into a finite number of disjoint intervals. Here we consider chromatic …
