Occurrence of Right Angles in Vector Spaces Over Finite Fields

Here we examine some Erdos-Falconer-type problems in vector spaces over finite fields involving right angles. Our main goals are to show that a) a subset A of F_q^d of size >> q^[(d+2)/3] contains three points which generate a right angle, and b) a s...

Finite Element Analysis of the Schroedinger Equation

The purpose of this work is to test the application of the finite element method to quantum mechanical problems, in particular for solving the Schroedinger equation. We begin with an overview of quantum mechanics, and standard numerical technique...

Finite-Size Scaling from the non-perturbative Renormalization Group

The phase diagram of QCD at finite temperature and density and the existence of a critical point are currently very actively researched topics. Although tremendous progress has been made, in the case of two light quark flavors even the order of the...

On Brady's Classifying Spaces for Artin Groups of Finite Type

This thesis takes Brady's construction of $K(π,1)$s for the braid groups as a starting point. It is widely known that this construction can - with the right ingredients - be generalized to Artin groups of finite type. Results of Bessis as well as Br...

The curved kinetic boundary layer of active matter

The finite reorient-time of swimmers leads to a finite run length $\ell$ and the kinetic accumulation boundary layer on the microscopic length scale $δ$ on a non-penetrating wall. That boundary layer is the microscopic origin of the swim pressure, a...

Finding roots of polynomials over finite fields

We propose an improved algorithm for finding roots of polynomials over finite fields. This makes possible significant speedup of the decoding process of Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem, Reed-Solomon, and some other error-correcting codes....

Finite Morphisms to Projective Space and Capacity Theory

We study conditions on a commutative ring R which are equivalent to the following requirement; whenever X is a projective scheme over S = Spec(R) of fiber dimension \leq d for some integer d \geq 0, there is a finite morphism from X to P^d_S over S s...

On the existence of kings in continuous tournaments

The classical result of Landau on the existence of kings in finite tournaments (=finite directed complete graphs) is extended to continuous tournaments for which the set X of players is a compact Hausdorff space. The following partial converse is pro...

Reverse mathematics and properties of finite character

We study the reverse mathematics of the principle stating that, for every property of finite character, every set has a maximal subset satisfying the property. In the context of set theory, this variant of Tukey's lemma is equivalent to the axiom of...
