We consider three separate topics in nonlinear optimization, one theoretical topic and two algorithmic topics. Each of these topics deals with a broad class of nonlinear optimization problems. We first introduce and analyze ...

Proving the existence or nonexistence of structures with specified properties is the impetus for many classical results in discrete mathematics. In this thesis we take this approach to three different structural questions ...

In chapter 1 we investigate the A(,s)(n,d) problem in the Plotkin Region. The problem is to finding the maximum number of codewords in a code on an alphabet with s symbols that has length n and minimum Hamming distance d. ...

In this dissertation we present a number of new results in combinatorial number theory. Chapter I discusses a generalization of B(,2)-sequences which are used in Chapter II and Chapter III to obtain short interval results ...

Let $\mathcal{C} \colon= \mathds{C}/ \Lambda$ be a complex elliptic curve. In this paper, we give a detailed construction of torus equivariant elliptic cohomology, which is a sheaf of $\mathcal{ O}_{\mathcal{C}^n}$-algebras ...

An interval representation (or simply representation) R of a graph G is a collection of finite sets $\{R(\nu):\nu \in V(G)\}$ of closed bounded intervals so that $u \leftrightarrow \nu$ if and only if there exist $\theta\sb{u} ... application/pdf PDF (5Mb) • (2011-05-25) A closed totally geodesic surface in the figure eight knot complement remains incompressible in all but finitely many Dehn fllings. In this thesis, we show that there is no universal upper bound on the number of such ... application/pdf PDF (370Kb) • (1995) We consider a question of describing the one-dimensional P-adic representations that lift a given representation over a finite field of the absolute Galois group of a function field K. In this case, the characterization ... application/pdf PDF (2Mb) • (2011-08-25) This thesis is composed of two parts. In the first part we introduce a higher rank analog of the Pandharipande-Thomas theory of stable pairs on a Calabi-Yau threefold$X\$. More precisely, we develop a moduli theory for ...
