Stochastic Comparision And Dependence Among Order Statistics,Spacing And Concomitants Of Order Statistics., Baha-Eldin Khaledi Dr.

The simplest and the most common way of comparing two random variables is through their means and variances. It may happen that in some cases the median of X is larger than the median of Y, while the mean of X is smaller than the mean of Y. However, this confusion will not arise if the random variables are stochastically ordered. Similarly, the same may happen if one would like to compare the variability of X with that of Y based only on numerical measures of variability. Besides, these characteristics of distributions might not exist in some cases. In most …


Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci In Humans: Some Statistical Contributions., Saurabh Ghosh Dr. Feb 2001

Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci In Humans: Some Statistical Contributions., Saurabh Ghosh Dr.

Doctoral Theses

Maty qualitative tralts - such an, milk yield la cows, blood pressure in lumans --are known to be determined primarly, though zot exclusively, by inherited genetic luctora. It ls the of coasklerable impartance to identify chromosontal locations of tho genes that control a quantitative character. Linkage analysis (Ou 1990), which deals with the deduction of linkagn and estimation of recombination fractions among the loci controlling a qualitative/quantitative character and major loci wkoo poertions are knows aprfori, is widely used for localisation of gens. Although statistical methodologies for magplag gemen determining dichotomos qualitative charactes in humans aro well-developed, the demicrant of …


Boolean Functions With Important Cryptographic Properties., Subhamoy Maitra Dr. Feb 2001

Boolean Functions With Important Cryptographic Properties., Subhamoy Maitra Dr.

Doctoral Theses

In this thesis we concentrate on properties of cryptographically significant Boolean functions.The techniques are mainly combinstorial and provide new resulta on enumeration and construction of such functions. Initially we concentrate on a partieular subset of Boolean functions called the symmetric Boolean functions. A closed form expression for the Walsh transform of an arbitrary symmetric Boolean function is presented. We completely characterize the symmetric functions with maximum nonlinearity and show that the maximum nonlinearity of n-variable symmetrie function can be 2n-1-2[n-1l2], Moreover, new classes of symmetric balanced and symmetric correlation immune functions are considered.We provide a randomised heuristic to construct balanced …


Contributions To Random Interactions And Dynamical Systems., Santanu Chakraborty Dr. Feb 2001

Contributions To Random Interactions And Dynamical Systems., Santanu Chakraborty Dr.

Doctoral Theses

In recent years random iterations of maps on Polish spaces has gained prominence. They are. nice examples of Markov processes whose invariant measures can be used in Computer imaging (see Berger ( 1). They also arise as random perturabations of deterministic dynamical systems.Let S be a Polish space with its Borel a-field. Let r be a collection of Borel maps from S to S. Let P be a probability on r. Then starting with a point z in S, we choose a map yn er according to the law P and move to ya(x). Then we choose 2 € r …


Topological Conjugacy And Rigidity Of Affine Actions., Siddhartha Bhattacharya Dr. Jan 2001

Topological Conjugacy And Rigidity Of Affine Actions., Siddhartha Bhattacharya Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The main theme of this thesis is topological classiication of aline Hows on homogeneous spaces and rigidity of equivariant continuous maps between such dows. Both these aspects have been extensively studied in the literature for subgroup actions (cf. [Be), [B-Dj and [Wi) and for automorphism flows of the cyclic group (cf. [Ar]. [K-R] and [C-S). We will consider similar questions in more general situations. A detailed outline is given below. For a topological group T, by a r-flow we mean pair (X,p), where X is a opological space and p is a continuous action of I on X. For any …


Routing Algorithms For Channels, Switchboxes And Mcm's In Vlsi Layout Design., Sandip Das Dr. Jan 2001

Routing Algorithms For Channels, Switchboxes And Mcm's In Vlsi Layout Design., Sandip Das Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The term Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) reflects the capability of semi- conductor industry to fabricate a complex electronic circuit consisting of millions of components on a single silicon substrate. The growth of semiconductor technol- ogy in recent years has been described by "Moore's law", enunciated in the late 1960s, which projected quadrupling of components in a chip in every three to four years. Several factors contributed to this tremendous growth : (i) reduction of line width of the basic device and interconnection wires due to the development of high- resolution lithographic techniques and improved processing capabilities, (ii) increase in …
