Contributions To The Theory Of Directed And Undirected Graphs., Siddani Bhaskara Rao Dr. Feb 1971

Contributions To The Theory Of Directed And Undirected Graphs., Siddani Bhaskara Rao Dr.

Doctoral Theses

Graph thoory has becone such a well Imown and widely applicd subject with nuncrous applications in operations rescarch, coding thoory, gone thoory, physical and so oial sciences (to montion only a few), that it is not neccasary to give a goneral introduction to 1t. Instead wo give below a Burnary of the reaults containod in thia thosis chapterwisc.This thesis contains five chapters which are, morc or loss, indopendent of cach. other. In Chaptcr 1, we study the existence of locally restricted graphs, that is graphs having a proscribod property with given dogrecs. In Section 1.1, wc obtain necossary and sufficient …

Some Contributions To The Analysis Of Circular Data., J. S. Rao Dr. Feb 1970

Some Contributions To The Analysis Of Circular Data., J. S. Rao Dr.

Doctoral Theses

In many diverae scientifie fields, one cones serose experimente where the basie variable unter obaervation ia a direction. We ahall be conoerned, throughout this theais, only with diraations in two-dimensions and wo refer to such a collection of directione an 'circular data or dimenstionl data. In order to make a statintical analyaie of circular data, the first prerequisite is to put thom in a quantitative form. One way of doing thie is to represent the directiona anglea no aaured d thre apeet to eone mui tably choscn sero direation. Al ternately, einee a direetion han no nagni- tude, it can …


Contribution To Linear Quaternionic Analysis., K. Viswanath Dr. Feb 1969

Contribution To Linear Quaternionic Analysis., K. Viswanath Dr.

Doctoral Theses

Several articles have appeared in recent years which discuss linear transformations on finite-dimensional vector spaces over the quaternions in terms of matrices, but the general infinite -dimensional situation does not seen to have received much attention. In particular, very little is known about linear transformations on quaternionic Hilbert spaces apart from the obvious theory of Hermitian operators. There are hardly any discussion of this subject, apart from the brief treatment of Finkelstein, Jauch, Schiminovitch and Speiser in their fundamental paper on the foundations of quaternion quantum mechanics (1962), which gives spectral theorems for unitary operators and skew hermitian operators and …


Some Stochastic Models In Reliability., R. Natarajan Dr. Feb 1969

Some Stochastic Models In Reliability., R. Natarajan Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The work presented in this thesis was carried out under the supervision of Dr. J. Sethuraman, Research & Training School, Indian Statistical Institute, Calcutta, and is devoted to the study of some stochastic models of standby and parallel redundant systems. Some of the reliability characteristics studied are the expected time to system failure, the long-run availability, expected number of system failures in a given interval of time, interval reliability etc. These reliability characteristics will be useful in the better design of systems and making management decisions in improving system reliability.The investigations carried out in this thesis are presented in four …
