Some New Applications Of P-P Plots, Isha Dewan, Subhash C. Kochar Mar 2013

Some New Applications Of P-P Plots, Isha Dewan, Subhash C. Kochar

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications and Presentations

The P-P plot is a powerful graphical tool to compare stochastically the magnitudes of two random variables. In this note, we introduce a new partial order, called P?P order based on P-P plots. For a pair of random variables (X 1, Y1) and (X 2, Y 2) one can see the relative precedence of Y 2 over X 2 versus that of Y 1 over X 1 using P-P order. We show that several seemingly very technical and difficult concepts like convex transform order and super-additive ordering can be easily explained with the …


The Complexity Of Linear Algebra, Leann Kay Christensen Jan 2013

The Complexity Of Linear Algebra, Leann Kay Christensen

Theses Digitization Project

This study examines the complexity of linear algebra. Complexity means how much work, or the number of calculations or time it takes to perform a task. As linear algebra is used more and more in different fields, it becomes useful to study ways of reducing the amount of work required to complete basic procedures.


Behavior Of Solutions For Bernoulli Initial-Value Problems, Carlos Marcelo Sardan Jan 2013

Behavior Of Solutions For Bernoulli Initial-Value Problems, Carlos Marcelo Sardan

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of this project is to investigate blow-up properties of solutions for specific initial-value problems that involve Bernoulli Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE's). The objective is to find conditions on the coefficients and on the initial-values that lead to unbounded growth of solutions in finite time.
