  • Orderings on words and permutations 

    McDevitt, Matthew (University of St Andrews, 2019-12-03) - Thesis
    Substructure orderings are ubiquitous throughout combinatorics and all of mathematics. In this thesis we consider various orderings on words, as well as the consecutive involvement ordering on permutations. Throughout ...

  • Methods in spatially explicit capture-recapture 

    Stevenson, Ben C. (University of St Andrews, 2016-06-24) - Thesis
    Capture-recapture (CR) methods are a ubiquitous means of estimating animal abundance from wildlife surveys. They rely on the detection and subsequent redetection of individuals over a number of sampling occasions. It is ...

  • Mathematical modelling of tumour-immune competition tumour growth : discrete and continuum approaches 

    Macfarlane, Fiona Ruth (University of St Andrews, 2019-12-03) - Thesis
    The ability of the human immune system to detect and remove cancer cells is exploited in the development of immunotherapy techniques. However, further understanding of these mechanisms is required and can be achieved through ...

  • Assouad type dimensions and dimension spectra 

    Yu, Han (University of St Andrews, 2019-12-03) - Thesis
    In the first part of this thesis we introduce a new dimension spectrum motivated by the Assouad dimension; a familiar notion of dimension which, for a given metric space, returns the minimal exponent α ≥ 0 such that for ...
