Let F$\sb{n,m}$ denote the set of all real forms of degree m in n variables. In 1888, Hilbert proved that a form P $\in$ F$\sb{n,m}$ which is positive semidefinite (psd) must have a representation as a sum of squares (sos) ...

Although the 'Inductive' form of Dade's conjecture must be verified for all finite, non-abelian, simple groups G, for most such G it suffices to verify a simpler form of the conjecture. In this thesis we will introduce ...

Suppose $f(x,y)$ is a binary form of degree $d$ with coefficients in a field $K \subseteq \cc$. The {\it $K$-rank of $f$} is the smallest number of $d$-th powers of linear forms over $K$ of which $f$ is a $K$-linear ...

This thesis builds on the recently begun extension of continuum thermomechanics to fractal media which are specified by a fractional mass scaling law of the resolution length scale R. The focus is on pre-fractal media ...

In this dissertation we study the representation of standard measures and contents via Loeb measures and the standard part map, extending previously known results to a nontopological setting. In addition, a characterization ...

We are concerned with the problem of finding the least s for which every large natural number n admits a representation $n = x\sbsp{2}{2} + x\sbsp{3}{3} + \cdots + x\sbsp{s+1}{s+1}$, where the numbers $x\sb{i}$ are nonnegative ...
