Equitable Coloring Of Complete Tripartitle Graphs, Maxwell Vlam, Bailey Orehosky, Dominic Ditizio Jan 2022

Equitable Coloring Of Complete Tripartitle Graphs, Maxwell Vlam, Bailey Orehosky, Dominic Ditizio

Capstone Showcase

In this paper, we prove the Equitable Coloring Conjecture for variations of complete tripartite graphs with graphs K_n,n,n, K_n,n,2n, K_n,n,n+2, and K_n,n+2,n+4.


An Introduction To Copulas, Yifan Guo, Geng Zhang Jan 2020

An Introduction To Copulas, Yifan Guo, Geng Zhang

Capstone Showcase

Copulas are the mathematical functions that connect the distribution functions of univariate random variables to form multivariate distributions. We define copulas, present some of their key properties, and provide examples of their applications.


Predicting Student Success In Arcadia University’S Math Courses, Chutong Wu, Tong Zhu, Yijin Qiu Jan 2020

Predicting Student Success In Arcadia University’S Math Courses, Chutong Wu, Tong Zhu, Yijin Qiu

Capstone Showcase

This project examines the relative efficacy of Arcadia’s math placement test and math SAT scores in predicting student success, and explores whether SAT scores alone might suffice for certain courses.


Climate Change Models, Lauren Fie Jan 2020

Climate Change Models, Lauren Fie

Capstone Showcase

As a result of the changing climate, global temperatures and global mean sea levels (GMSL) have been increasing rapidly. The complex physical systems surrounding this growth make it difficult to form an accurate model. This paper looks at a simplified model proposed and supported by Aral, Guan, and Chang. This model consists of a system of ordinary differential equations that are simplified and solved theoretically, then applied using python to calculate precise values and form predictions.
