Approximate Mean-Field Equations Of Motion For Quasi-Two-Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates, Mark Edwards, Michael Krygier, Hadayat Seddiqi, Brandon Benton, Charles W. Clark Nov 2012

Approximate Mean-Field Equations Of Motion For Quasi-Two-Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates, Mark Edwards, Michael Krygier, Hadayat Seddiqi, Brandon Benton, Charles W. Clark

Physics & Astronomy: Faculty Publications

We present a method for approximating the solution of the three-dimensional, time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) for Bose-Einstein-condensate systems where the confinement in one dimension is much tighter than in the other two. This method employs a hybrid Lagrangian variational technique whose trial wave function is the product of a completely unspecified function of the coordinates in the plane of weak confinement and a Gaussian in the strongly confined direction having a time-dependent width and quadratic phase. The hybrid Lagrangian variational method produces equations of motion that consist of (1) a two-dimensional (2D) effective GPE whose nonlinear coefficient contains the width …

A Non-Parametric Approach To Change-Point Detection In Cross-Asset Correlations, L. Kaili Diamond Oct 2012

A Non-Parametric Approach To Change-Point Detection In Cross-Asset Correlations, L. Kaili Diamond

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

In this thesis we explore the problem of detecting change-points in cross-asset correlations using a non-parametric approach. We began by comparing and contrasting several common methods for change-point detection as well as methods for measuring correlation. We finally settle on a statistic introduced in early 2012 by Herold Dehling et.al. and test this statistic against real world financial data. We provide the estimated change-point for this data as well as the asymptotic p-value associated with this statistic. Once this process was complete we went on to use simulated data to measure the accuracy, power, and type 1 error associated with …


Cycles, The Degree Distance, And The Wiener Index, Daniel Gray, Hua Wang Oct 2012

Cycles, The Degree Distance, And The Wiener Index, Daniel Gray, Hua Wang

Mathematical Sciences: Faculty Publications

The degree distance of a graph G is D'(G)=(1/2)∑ni=1∑nj=1(di+dj)Li ,j, where di and dj are the degrees of vertices vi, vj ∈ V (G), and Li,j is the distance between them. The Wiener index is defined as W(G)=(1/2)∑ni=1 ∑nj-1Li, j. An elegant result (Gutman; Klein, Mihalic, Plavsic and Trinajstic) is known regarding their correlation, that D'(T)=4W(T)-n(n-1)for a tree T with n vertices. In …


Finding A Better Confidence Interval For A Single Regression Changepoint Using Different Bootstrap Confidence Interval Procedures, Bodhipaksha Thilakarathne Oct 2012

Finding A Better Confidence Interval For A Single Regression Changepoint Using Different Bootstrap Confidence Interval Procedures, Bodhipaksha Thilakarathne

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

Recently a number of papers have been published in the area of regression changepoints but there is not much literature concerning confidence intervals for regression changepoints. The purpose of this paper is to find a better bootstrap confidence interval for a single regression changepoint. ("Better" confidence interval means having a minimum length and coverage probability which is close to a chosen significance level). Several methods will be used to find bootstrap confidence intervals. Among those methods a better confidence interval will be presented.

Integer Solutions To Optimization Problems And Modular Sequences Of Nexus Numbers, Jeremy T. Davis Oct 2012

Integer Solutions To Optimization Problems And Modular Sequences Of Nexus Numbers, Jeremy T. Davis

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

In this thesis, we examine the use of integers through two ideas. As mathematics teachers, we prefer students not use calculators on assessments. In order to require this, students compute the problems by hand. We take a look at the classic Calculus I optimization box problem while restricting values to integers. In addition, sticking with the integer theme, we take a new look at the nexus numbers. Nexus numbers are extensions of the hex and rhombic dodecahedral numbers. We put these numbers into a sequence, and through a few computations of modular arithmetic, we analyze the sequences and their patterns …


Integer Compositions, Gray Code, And The Fibonacci Sequence, Linus Lindroos Oct 2012

Integer Compositions, Gray Code, And The Fibonacci Sequence, Linus Lindroos

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

In this thesis I show the relation of binary and Gray Code to integer compositions and the Fibonacci sequence through the use of analytic combinatorics, Zeckendorf's Theorem, and generating functions.


Compositions, Bijections, And Enumerations, Charles R. Dedrickson Iii Oct 2012

Compositions, Bijections, And Enumerations, Charles R. Dedrickson Iii

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

In this thesis we give an introduction to colored-compositions of an integer. This is a generalization of traditional integer compositions, and we show a few results for n-color compositions which are analogous to regular compositions with both combinatorial and analytic proofs. We also show several bijections between various types of compositions to certain types of numeric strings, and provide a generalization of a classic bijection between compositions and binary strings.
