Spectral Sequences For Almost Complex Manifolds, Qian Chen
Spectral Sequences For Almost Complex Manifolds, Qian Chen
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
In recent work, two new cohomologies were introduced for almost complex manifolds: the so-called J-cohomology and N-cohomology [CKT17]. For the case of integrable (complex) structures, the former cohomology was already considered in [DGMS75], and the latter agrees with de Rham cohomology. In this dissertation, using ideas from [CW18], we introduce spectral sequences for these two cohomologies, showing the two cohomologies have natural bigradings. We show the spectral sequence for the J-cohomology converges at the second page whenever the almost complex structure is integrable, and explain how both fit in a natural diagram involving Bott-Chern cohomology and the Frolicher spectral sequence. …
Harmony Amid Chaos, Drew Schaffner
Harmony Amid Chaos, Drew Schaffner
Pence-Boyce STEM Student Scholarship
We provide a brief but intuitive study on the subjects from which Galois Fields have emerged and split our study up into two categories: harmony and chaos. Specifically, we study finite fields with elements where is prime. Such a finite field can be defined through a logarithm table. The Harmony Section is where we provide three proofs about the overall symmetry and structure of the Galois Field as well as several observations about the order within a given table. In the Chaos Section we make two attempts to analyze the tables, the first by methods used by Vladimir Arnold as …
An Analysis And Comparison Of Knot Polynomials, Hannah Steinhauer
An Analysis And Comparison Of Knot Polynomials, Hannah Steinhauer
Senior Honors Projects, 2020-current
Knot polynomials are polynomial equations that are assigned to knot projections based on the mathematical properties of the knots. They are also invariants, or properties of knots that do not change under ambient isotopy. In other words, given an invariant α for a knot K, α is the same for any projection of K. We will define these knot polynomials and explain the processes by which one finds them for a given knot projection. We will also compare the relative usefulness of these polynomials.
Discrepancy Inequalities In Graphs And Their Applications, Adam Purcilly
Discrepancy Inequalities In Graphs And Their Applications, Adam Purcilly
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Spectral graph theory, which is the use of eigenvalues of matrices associated with graphs, is a modern technique that has expanded our understanding of graphs and their structure. A particularly useful tool in spectral graph theory is the Expander Mixing Lemma, also known as the discrepancy inequality, which bounds the edge distribution between two sets based on the spectral gap. More specifically, it states that a small spectral gap of a graph implies that the edge distribution is close to random. This dissertation uses this tool to study two problems in extremal graph theory, then produces similar discrepancy inequalities based …
Pascal's Mystic Hexagon In Tropical Geometry, Hanna Hoffman
Pascal's Mystic Hexagon In Tropical Geometry, Hanna Hoffman
HMC Senior Theses
Pascal's mystic hexagon is a theorem from projective geometry. Given six points in the projective plane, we can construct three points by extending opposite sides of the hexagon. These three points are collinear if and only if the six original points lie on a nondegenerate conic. We attempt to prove this theorem in the tropical plane.
