Can a cake be divided amongst people in such a manner that each individual is content with their share? In a game, is there a combination of strategies where no player is motivated to change their approach? Is there a price where the demand for goods is entirely met by the supply in the economy and there is no tendency for anything to change? In this paper, we will prove the existence of envy-free cake divisions, equilibrium game strategies and equilibrium prices in the economy, as well as discuss what brings them together under one heading.

Microstructural Analysis Of Thermoelastic Response, Nonlinear Creep, And Pervasive Cracking In Heterogeneous Materials, Alden C. Cook
Microstructural Analysis Of Thermoelastic Response, Nonlinear Creep, And Pervasive Cracking In Heterogeneous Materials, Alden C. Cook
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation is concerned with the development of robust numerical solution procedures for the generalized micromechanical analysis of linear and nonlinear constitutive behavior in heterogeneous materials. Although the methods developed are applicable in many engineering, geological, and materials science fields, three main areas are explored in this work. First, a numerical methodology is presented for the thermomechanical analysis of heterogeneous materials with a special focus on real polycrystalline microstructures obtained using electron backscatter diffraction techniques. Asymptotic expansion homogenization and finite element analysis are employed for micromechanical analysis of polycrystalline materials. Effective thermoelastic properties of polycrystalline materials are determined and compared …
Embedding Of Hypercube Graphs On Orientable Surfaces, Prateek Kunwar
Embedding Of Hypercube Graphs On Orientable Surfaces, Prateek Kunwar
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this thesis is to study hypercube graphs and their embeddings on orientable surfaces. We use rotation systems to represent these embeddings. We prove some results about the effect of adjacent switches in rotation system and create a rotation system called the ABC rotation system and prove general results about it. Using this rotation system, we give a general theorem about the minimal embedding of $Q_{n}$. We also look at some interesting types of maximal embedding of $Q_{n}$, such as the Eulerian walk embedding and the "big-face embedding". We prove a theorem that gives a recursively constructive way …
