Geometric Constructions From An Algebraic Perspective, Betzabe Bojorquez Sep 2015

Geometric Constructions From An Algebraic Perspective, Betzabe Bojorquez

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

Many topics that mathematicians study at times seem so unrelated such as Geometry and Abstract Algebra. These two branches of math would seem unrelated at first glance. I will try to bridge Geometry and Abstract Algebra just a bit with the following topics. We can be sure that after we construct our basic parallel and perpendicular lines, bisected angles, regular polygons, and other basic geometric figures, we are actually constructing what in geometry is simply stated and accepted, because it will be proven using abstract algebra. Also we will look at many classic problems in Geometry that are not possible …


Unique Prime Factorization Of Ideals In The Ring Of Algebraic Integers Of An Imaginary Quadratic Number Field, Nolberto Rezola Jun 2015

Unique Prime Factorization Of Ideals In The Ring Of Algebraic Integers Of An Imaginary Quadratic Number Field, Nolberto Rezola

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

The ring of integers is a very interesting ring, it has the amazing property that each of its elements may be expressed uniquely, up to order, as a product of prime elements. Unfortunately, not every ring possesses this property for its elements. The work of mathematicians like Kummer and Dedekind lead to the study of a special type of ring, which we now call a Dedekind domain, where even though unique prime factorization of elements may fail, the ideals of a Dedekind domain still enjoy the property of unique prime factorization into a product of prime ideals, up to order …


Radio Number For Fourth Power Paths, Linda V. Alegria Dec 2014

Radio Number For Fourth Power Paths, Linda V. Alegria

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

A path on n vertices, denoted by Pn, is a simple graph whose vertices can be ordered so that two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are consecutive in the order. A fourth power path, Pn4, is obtained from Pn by adding edges between any two vertices, u and v, whose distance in Pn, denoted by dPn(u,v), is less than or equal to four. The diameter of a graph G, denoted diam(G) is the greatest distance between any two distinct vertices of G. A radio labeling of a graph G is a function f that assigns to each …


Monoid Rings And Strongly Two-Generated Ideals, Brittney M. Salt Jun 2014

Monoid Rings And Strongly Two-Generated Ideals, Brittney M. Salt

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

This paper determines whether monoid rings with the two-generator property have the strong two-generator property. Dedekind domains have both the two-generator and strong two-generator properties. How common is this? Two cases are considered here: the zero-dimensional case and the one-dimensional case for monoid rings. Each case is looked at to determine if monoid rings that are not PIRs but are two-generated have the strong two-generator property. Full results are given in the zero-dimensional case, however only partial results have been found for the one-dimensional case.
