Limit Distributions Of Products Of Independent And Identically Distributed Random 2 × 2 Stochastic Matrices: A Treatment With The Reciprocal Of The Golden Ratio, Santanu Chakraborty
Limit Distributions Of Products Of Independent And Identically Distributed Random 2 × 2 Stochastic Matrices: A Treatment With The Reciprocal Of The Golden Ratio, Santanu Chakraborty
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Consider a sequence (Xn)n≥1 of i.i.d. 2×2 stochastic matrices with each Xn distributed as μ. This μ is described as follows. Let (Cn,Dn)T denote the first column of Xn and for a given real r with 012 is very challenging. Considering the extreme nontriviality of this case, we stick to a very special such r, namely, r=√5−12 (the reciprocal of the golden ratio), briefly mention the challenges in this nontrivial case, and completely identify λ for a very special situation.
Turing Patterns In A P-Adic Fitzhugh-Nagumo System On The Unit Ball, L. F. Chacón-Cortés, C. A. Garcia-Bibiano, Wilson A. Zuniga-Galindo
Turing Patterns In A P-Adic Fitzhugh-Nagumo System On The Unit Ball, L. F. Chacón-Cortés, C. A. Garcia-Bibiano, Wilson A. Zuniga-Galindo
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
We introduce discrete and p-adic continuous versions of the FitzHugh-Nagumo system on the one-dimensional p-adic unit ball. We provide criteria for the existence of Turing patterns. We present extensive simulations of some of these systems. The simulations show that the Turing patterns are traveling waves in the p-adic unit ball.
The Tor Algebra Of Trimmings Of Gorenstein Ideals, Luigi Ferraro, Alexis Hardesty
The Tor Algebra Of Trimmings Of Gorenstein Ideals, Luigi Ferraro, Alexis Hardesty
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Let (R,\mathfrak m,\Bbbk ) be a regular local ring of dimension 3. Let I be a Gorenstein ideal of R of grade 3. Buchsbaum and Eisenbud proved that there is a skew-symmetric matrix of odd size such that I is generated by the sub-maximal pfaffians of this matrix. Let J be the ideal obtained by multiplying some of the pfaffian generators of I by \mathfrak m; we say that J is a trimming of I. Building on a recent paper of Vandebogert, we construct an explicit free resolution of R/J and compute a partial DG algebra structure on this …
A Combinatorial Proof Of Supercranks For Partitions With A Fixed Number Of Parts, Jacob J. Gutierrez
A Combinatorial Proof Of Supercranks For Partitions With A Fixed Number Of Parts, Jacob J. Gutierrez
Theses and Dissertations
In a previous paper by Eichhorn and Kronholm, a selection of supercranks for p(n,m) was established by generating functions. In this paper we will reprove this result with combinatorial witnesses for the selection of supercranks via integer lattice points.
Attitudes Towards Mathematics Of Developmental Mathematics Students In A Community College, Benjamin Ortiz
Attitudes Towards Mathematics Of Developmental Mathematics Students In A Community College, Benjamin Ortiz
Theses and Dissertations
Reformations to developmental mathematics aim to remove barriers for students entering higher education. Challenges like costly multi-course sequences and high failure rates prohibit students’ access to college-level math courses and prevent degree or certification completion. Understanding factors that foster student success is critical to increase student success. This study focuses on students’ attitudes towards mathematics, utilizing the novice-expert continuum through Code et al.’s Mathematical Attitude and Perceptions Survey (MAPS) instrument. Student expertise scores, including all MAPS dimensions and specific dimension scores, were assigned. Kruskal-Wallis Rank-Sum tests identified differences in student populations by course and attitude dimension. …
How An Instructor's Noticing For Equity Can Foster Students' Sense Of Belonging And Mathematical Confidence, Sthefania Espinosa
How An Instructor's Noticing For Equity Can Foster Students' Sense Of Belonging And Mathematical Confidence, Sthefania Espinosa
Theses and Dissertations
There are many aspects a teacher can notice inside the mathematics classroom, and the more a teacher notices, the more difficult it is to teach. In this study, I particularly focus on noticing for equity, which describes the role of the teacher in attending to students’ mathematical thinking through an equity lens that can allow the instructor to notice the aspects of classroom mathematical activity that can make students feel less or more empowered in their mathematical practices (van Es et al., 2017). There exists few research about how students perceive their instructor’s effort to promote equity and …
An Automatic Solver For Optimal Control Problems, Marcel Efren Benitez
An Automatic Solver For Optimal Control Problems, Marcel Efren Benitez
Theses and Dissertations
Optimal control theory is a study that is used to find a control for a dynamical system over a period of time such that a objection function is optimized. In this study we will be looking at optimal control problems for ordinary differential equations or ODEs and see that we can use an automatic solver using the forward-backward sweep using Matlab to solve for them from an 1 dimension to bounded cases and to nth dimension cases.
Case Studies Of Algebra 1 Teachers Selection And Implementation Of Mathematics Tasks Toward Situated Learning, Luis Román Sauceda
Case Studies Of Algebra 1 Teachers Selection And Implementation Of Mathematics Tasks Toward Situated Learning, Luis Román Sauceda
Theses and Dissertations
Mathematical tasks are vital in active learning, especially in situated learning. Adequate selection and appropriate implementation of tasks are steps toward success in engaging students for active learning. This study explored how a professional development (PD) workshop influences teacher participants’ capabilities in selecting, redesigning, implementing, and reflecting on mathematical tasks to promote situated and active learning. The teacher participants were Algebra 1 teachers from a South Texas secondary school. During the workshop, participants developed and implemented activities after being shown situated learning strategies to promote student-centered learning. They were required to design hypothetical dialogues to simulate their class practice before …

Strategies Community College Mexican American Adult College Algebra Students Use When Graphing Function Transformations, Roxana Pamela Jimenez
Theses and Dissertations
This qualitative case study pursued to describe the different strategies Mexican American adult students in a local community college used to graph function transformations. Participants in the study were purposefully selected using a criterion sampling to ensure participants were atypical, above average students between the ages 18-22, and had a final course average of 89.5-100 in College Algebra. Three research questions were examined 1) In what ways do Mexican American adult college students graph a function transformation? 2) Which strategies do students implement when graphing a function transformation? Qualitative research methods using think aloud semi-structured interviews were used in this …
Quasipolynomials And The Unimodality Of Gaussian Polynomials, Paul Marsh
Quasipolynomials And The Unimodality Of Gaussian Polynomials, Paul Marsh
Theses and Dissertations
We illustrate a method to prove the unimodality of Gaussian polynomials ${N+m \brack m}$ for $m = 5$ and $6$, building upon Dr. Brandt Kronholm's work, which proved unimodality for $m = 2,3,$ and $4$. Our approach involves viewing coefficients $p(n,m,N)$ of Gaussian polynomials $N+m \brack m$ based on how far away $n$ is from the central coefficient $p(\lfloor\frac{mN}{2}\rfloor,m,N)$ and then creating generating functions for those coefficients. We then take the difference of neighboring generating functions and change those generating functions into quasipolynomials to verify that their coefficients are non-negative. While the generalization of these generating functions for the coefficients …

Road traffic accident (RTA) is a critical global public health concern, particularly in developing countries. Analyzing past fatalities and predicting future trends is vital for the development of road safety policies and regulations. The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of univariate Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) and Facebook (FB) Prophet models, with potential change points, in handling time-series road accident data involving seasonal patterns in contrast to other statistical methods employed by key governmental agencies such as Ghana's Motor Transport and Traffic Unit (MTTU). The aforementioned models underwent training with monthly RTA data spanning …
Rigidity Of Ext And Tor Via Flat–Cotorsion Theory, Lars Winther Christensen, Luigi Ferraro, Peder Thompson
Rigidity Of Ext And Tor Via Flat–Cotorsion Theory, Lars Winther Christensen, Luigi Ferraro, Peder Thompson
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Let p be a prime ideal in a commutative noetherian ring R and denote by k(p) the residue field of the local ring R_p. We prove that if an R-module M satisfies Ext_R^n(k(p),M) = 0 for some n >= dim R, then Ext_R^i(k(p),M) = 0 holds for all i >= n. This improves a result of Christensen, Iyengar, and Marley by lowering the bound on n. We also improve existing results on Tor-rigidity. This progress is driven by the existence of minimal semi-flat-cotorsion replacements in the derived category as recently proved by Nakamura and Thompson.
The P-Adic Schrödinger Equation And The Two-Slit Experiment In Quantum Mechanics, Wilson A. Zuniga-Galindo
The P-Adic Schrödinger Equation And The Two-Slit Experiment In Quantum Mechanics, Wilson A. Zuniga-Galindo
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
p-Adic quantum mechanics is constructed from the Dirac-von Neumann axioms identifying quantum states with square-integrable functions on the N-dimensional p-adic space, Q_{p}^{N}. This choice is equivalent to the hypothesis of the discreteness of the space. The time is assumed to be a real variable. p-Adic quantum mechanics is the response to the question: what happens with the standard quantum mechanics if the space has a discrete nature? The time evolution of a quantum state is controlled by a nonlocal Schrödinger equation obtained from a p-adic heat equation by a temporal Wick rotation. This p-adic heat equation describes a particle performing …
Geometric Aspects Of Quantization And Relationship To Integrability, Paul Bracken
Geometric Aspects Of Quantization And Relationship To Integrability, Paul Bracken
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
It is the case that quantum mechanics has a deep geometric structure and can be presented accordingly. Quantum mechanics is to a certain degree foreshadowed by the geometry inherent in the geometric structure of classical mechanics. The purpose here is to present some new results and proofs which impact the mathematical structure of quantum mechanics. The relationship between integrability and quantum physics is investigated in terms of geometric ideas and structures. Two physical examples are drawn from these mathematical ideas which directly relate to physics. An introduction as to how these ideas can be extended to infinite degrees of freedom …

School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
This work characterizes the vanishing of the Fourier coefficients of all CM (Complex Multiplication) eta quotients. As consequences, we recover Serre’s characterization about that of η(12z)2 and recent results of Chang on the pth coefficients of η(4z)6 and η(6z)4 . Moreover, we generalize the results on the cases of weight 1 to the setting of binary quadratic forms.
Envariance As A Symmetry In Quantum Mechanics And Applications To Statistical Mechanics, Paul Bracken
Envariance As A Symmetry In Quantum Mechanics And Applications To Statistical Mechanics, Paul Bracken
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
A quantum symmetry called entanglement-assisted invariance, also called envariance, is introduced. It is studied with respect to the process of performing quantum measurements. An apparatus which interacts with other physical systems, which are called environments, exchanges a single state with physical states equal in number to that of the possible outcomes of the experiment. Correlations between the apparatus and environment give rise to a type of selection rule which prohibits the apparatus from appearing in a superposition corresponding to different eigenvalues of the pointer basis of the apparatus. The eigenspaces of this observable form a natural basis for the apparatus …
Explainable Machine Learning Reveals The Relationship Between Hearing Thresholds And Speech-In-Noise Recognition In Listeners With Normal Audiograms, Jithin Raj Balan, Hansapani Rodrigo, Udit Saxena, Srikanta K. Mishra
Explainable Machine Learning Reveals The Relationship Between Hearing Thresholds And Speech-In-Noise Recognition In Listeners With Normal Audiograms, Jithin Raj Balan, Hansapani Rodrigo, Udit Saxena, Srikanta K. Mishra
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Some individuals complain of listening-in-noise difficulty despite having a normal audiogram. In this study, machine learning is applied to examine the extent to which hearing thresholds can predict speech-in-noise recognition among normal-hearing individuals. The specific goals were to (1) compare the performance of one standard (GAM, generalized additive model) and four machine learning models (ANN, artificial neural network; DNN, deep neural network; RF, random forest; XGBoost; eXtreme gradient boosting), and (2) examine the relative contribution of individual audiometric frequencies and demographic variables in predicting speech-in-noise recognition. Archival data included thresholds (0.25–16 kHz) and speech recognition thresholds (SRTs) from listeners with …

Background
INTEROCC is a seven-country cohort study of occupational exposures and brain cancer risk, including occupational exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF). In the absence of data on individual exposures, a Job Exposure Matrix (JEM) may be used to construct likely exposure scenarios in occupational settings. This tool was constructed using statistical summaries of exposure to EMF for various occupational categories for a comparable group of workers.
Methods
In this study, we use the Canadian data from INTEROCC to determine the best EMF exposure surrogate/estimate from three appropriately chosen surrogates from the JEM, along with a fourth surrogate based on Berkson …
Rogue Waves And Their Patterns In The Vector Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation, Guangxiong Zhang, Peng Huang, Bao-Feng Feng, Chengfa Wu
Rogue Waves And Their Patterns In The Vector Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation, Guangxiong Zhang, Peng Huang, Bao-Feng Feng, Chengfa Wu
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this paper, we study the general rogue wave solutions and their patterns in the vector (or M-component) nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. By applying the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili reduction method, we derive an explicit solution for the rogue wave expressed by τ functions that are determinants of K × K block matrices ( 1 ≤ K ≤ M ) with an index jump of M + 1 . Patterns of the rogue waves for M = 3 , 4 and K = 1 are thoroughly investigated. It is found that when one of the internal parameters is large enough, the wave pattern …

Rogue Waves In The Massive Thirring Model, Junchao Chen, Bo Yang, Bao-Feng Feng
Rogue Waves In The Massive Thirring Model, Junchao Chen, Bo Yang, Bao-Feng Feng
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this paper, general rogue wave solutions in the massive Thirring (MT) model are derived by using the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy reduction method and these rational solutions are presented explicitly in terms of determinants whose matrix elements are elementary Schur polynomials. In the reduction process, three reduction conditions including one index- and two dimension-ones are proved to be consistent by only one constraint relation on parameters of tau-functions of the KP-Toda hierarchy. It is found that the rogue wave solutions in the MT model depend on two background parameters, which influence their orientation and duration. Differing from many other coupled …

Elementary Mathematics Curriculum: State Policy, Covid-19, And Teachers’ Control, Mona Baniahmadi, Bima Sapkota, Amy M. Olson
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
In the U.S., state guidance to schools in response to the COVID-19 pandemic was politicized. We used state-level political affiliation to explore whether access to curricular resources differed pre-pandemic or during pandemic remote teaching and teachers' reported control over curricular resources during pandemic teaching. We found that pre-pandemic the percentage of teachers in Republican states reported higher levels of resources overall, and use of core and teacher-created curricular resources in particular. They also reported having greater control over their curricular decision-making during the pandemic. There were no state-level differences in teachers’ level of preparation for pandemic teaching, but teachers in …
Convergence Of The Two-Point Modulus-Based Matrix Splitting Iteration Method, Ximing Fang, Ze Gu, Zhijun Qiao
Convergence Of The Two-Point Modulus-Based Matrix Splitting Iteration Method, Ximing Fang, Ze Gu, Zhijun Qiao
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this paper, we discuss the convergence of the two-point modulus-based matrix splitting iteration method for solving the linear complementarity problem. Some convergence conditions are presented from the spectral radius and the matrix norm when the system matrix is a -matrix. Besides, the quasi-optimal cases of the method are studied. Numerical experiments are provided to show the presented results.

A Second Homotopy Group For Digital Images, Gregory Lupton, Oleg R. Musin, Nicholas A. Scoville, P. Christopher Staecker, Jonathan Treviño-Marroquín
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
We define a second (higher) homotopy group for digital images. Namely, we construct a functor from digital images to abelian groups, which closely resembles the ordinary second homotopy group from algebraic topology. We illustrate that our approach can be effective by computing this (digital) second homotopy group for a digital 2-sphere.
On Explicit Soliton Solutions And Blow-Up For Coupled Variable Coefficient Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations, Jose Escorcia, Erwin Suazo
On Explicit Soliton Solutions And Blow-Up For Coupled Variable Coefficient Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations, Jose Escorcia, Erwin Suazo
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
This work is concerned with the study of explicit solutions for a generalized coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) system with variable coefficients. Indeed, we show, employing similarity transformations, the existence of Rogue wave and dark-bright soliton like-solutions for such a generalized NLS system, provided the coefficients satisfy a Riccati system. As a result of the multiparameter solution of the Riccati system, the nonlinear dynamics of the solution can be controlled. Finite-time singular solutions in the L∞ norm for the generalized coupled NLS system are presented explicitly. Finally, an n-dimensional transformation between a variable coefficient NLS coupled system and a constant …

Figured Worlds Of Women Mathematics Education Scholars, Lili Zhou, Ricki L. Geller-Mckee, Brooke Max, Hyunyi Jung, Bima Sapkota, Jill Newton, Lindsay M. Keazer
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Drawing on the concept of figured worlds (Holland et al., 1998), this project focuses on addressing, responding to, and understanding the self within the figured world of the mathematics education community. Specifically, we examine a group of women with diverse backgrounds in terms of race, class, and cultural contexts, who are engaged in various roles as mathematics education scholars, including teachers, teacher educators, and researchers. Using a dialogical self approach, we facilitate both internal and external discourses, exploring personal histories, narratives, and the development of evolving identities. Our findings reveal that culture and social positions, such as gender, class, and …
The Taylor Resolution Over A Skew Polynomial Ring, Luigi Ferraro, Desiree Martin, W. Frank Moore
The Taylor Resolution Over A Skew Polynomial Ring, Luigi Ferraro, Desiree Martin, W. Frank Moore
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
Let k be a field and let I be a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring Q = k[x1, . . . , xn]. In her thesis, Taylor introduced a complex which provides a finite free resolution for Q/I as a Q-module. Later, Gemeda constructed a differential graded structure on the Taylor resolution. More recently, Avramov showed that this differential graded algebra admits divided powers. We generalize each of these results to monomial ideals in a skew polynomial ring R. Under the hypothesis that the skew commuting parameters defining R are roots of unity, we prove as an application that …

On Angles In Higher Order Brillouin Tessellations And Related Tilings In The Plane, Herbert Edelsbrunner, Alexey Garber, Mohadese Ghafari, Teresa Heiss, Morteza Saghafian
School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications and Presentations
For a locally finite set in R 2 , the order-k Brillouin tessellations form an infinite sequence of convex face-to-face tilings of the plane. If the set is coarsely dense and generic, then the corresponding infinite sequences of minimum and maximum angles are both monotonic in k. As an example, a stationary Poisson point process in R 2 is locally finite, coarsely dense, and generic with probability one. For such a set, the distributions of angles in the Voronoi tessellations, Delaunay mosaics, and Brillouin tessellations are independent of the order and can be derived from the formula for angles in …
