What To Do On Your Summer Vacation, Alissa Crans

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

Summer vacation brings back fond memories: playing frisbee in the park, bike-riding till dusk, sipping lemonade on the porch with Grandpa, collecting shells at the beach, solving that difficult math problem you've been working on for the past several weeks. Wait a minute, you say? Many mathematics majors don't realize that numerous summer opportunities exist (many of them paid, so you don't need to get that job bagging groceries, too). A math program provides intellectual stimulation during those hot summer months, bringing your level of concentration up from swatting flies and applying sunscreen. The following descriptions are from actual participants …

The Hadamard Core Of The Totally Nonnegative Matrices, Alissa Crans

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

An m-by- n matrix A is called totally nonnegative if every minor of A is nonnegative. The Hadamard product of two matrices is simply their entry-wise product. This paper introduces the subclass of totally nonnegative matrices whose Hadamard product with any totally nonnegative matrix is again totally nonnegative. Many properties concerning this class are discussed including: a complete characterization for min{m,n}<4 >; a characterization of the zero–nonzero patterns for which all totally nonnegative matrices lie in this class; and connections to Oppenheim's inequality.

Measurement Of The Gluon Parton Distribution Function At Small X With Neutrino Telescopes, Gabriele U. Varieschi

Physics Faculty Works

We analyze the possibility that neutrino telescopes may provide an experimental determination of the slope λ of the gluon distribution in the proton at momentum fractions x smaller than the accelerator reach. The method is based on a linear relation between λ and the spectral index ~slope! of the down-going atmospheric muon flux above 100 TeV, for which there is no background. Considering the uncertainties in the charm production cross section and in the cosmic ray composition, we estimate the error on the measurement of l through this method, excluding the experimental error of the telescopes, to be ±0.2.

On The Existence Of Finite Type Link Homotopy Invariants, Blake Mellor, Dylan Thurston

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

We show that for links with at most 5 components, the only finite type homotopy invariants are products of the linking numbers. In contrast, we show that for links with at least 9 components, there must exist finite type homotopy invariants which are not products of the linking numbers. This corrects previous errors of the first author.

Evolution Is Opportunistic, Not Directional - Response, Timothy Shanahan

Philosophy Faculty Works

Argues against an article published in 'BioScience' magazine in which Timothy Shanahan says that evolution is progressive and directional and embodies improvement.Discussion of regressive and progressive evolution and the accompanying multiplication or loss of phenotypic characteristics; Illustrations related to the blindness and loss of pigmentation in troglobitic, or deep-sea cave organisms; Response from Shanahan.

Sugar-Binding Activity Of Pea Lectin Enhances Heterologous Infection Of Transgenic Alfalfa Plants By Rhizobium Leguminosarum Biovar Viciae, Nancy Fujishige

Biology Faculty Works

Transgenic alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. cv Regen) roots carrying genes encoding soybean lectin or pea (Pisum sativum) seed lectin (PSL) were inoculated with Bradyrhizobium japonicum or Rhizobium leguminosarum bv viciae, respectively, and their responses were compared with those of comparably inoculated control plants. We found that nodule-like structures formed on alfalfa roots only when the rhizobial strains produced Nod factor from the alfalfa-nodulating strain, Sinorhizobium meliloti. Uninfected nodule-like structures developed on the soybean lectin-transgenic plant roots at very low inoculum concentrations, but bona fide infection threads were not detected even when B. japonicum produced the appropriate S. meliloti Nod factor. …

Pay At Risk: Compensation And Employment Risk In The United States And Canada, John A. Turner Editor

Upjohn Press

The contributors to this book investigate the compensation and employment risks for U.S. and Canadian workers. They examine both wage and nonwage aspects of compensation, and whether workers in the U.S. or Canada face more job-related risks. They also seek to identify trends in risk bearing and whether they differ by country.

Security In Mobile Agent Systems: An Approach To Protect Mobile Agents From Malicious Host Attacks, Dalia Fakhry

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Mobile agents are autonomous programs that roam the Internet from machine to machine under their own control on behalf of their users to perform specific pre-defined tasks. In addition to that, a mobile agent can suspend its execution at any point; transfer itself to another machine then resume execution at the new machine without any loss of state. Such a mobile model can perform many possible types of operations, and might carry critical data that has to be protected from possible attacks. The issue of agent security and specially agent protection from host attacks has been a hot topic and …
