Multifractal measures : from self-affine to nonlinear
(University of St Andrews, 2021-12-01) - ThesisThis thesis is based on three papers the author wrote during his time as a PhD student [28, 17, 33]. In Chapter 2 we study 𝐿[sup]𝑞-spectra of planar self-affine measures generated by diagonal matrices. We introduce ... -
Enumerating 0-simple semigroups
(University of St Andrews, 2021-06-29) - ThesisComputational semigroup theory involves the study and implementation of algorithms to compute with semigroups. Efficiency is of central concern and often follows from the insight of semigroup theoretic results. In turn, ... -
Improved methods for estimating spatial and temporal trends from point transect survey data
(University of St Andrews, 2021-06-29) - ThesisThis thesis is about methods for improving estimates of abundance and trends from distance sampling surveys. My particular focus is on point transect surveys of endemic Hawaiian songbirds. When critical assumptions are ... -
Magnetohydrodynamic waves in the solar corona : a mathematical investigation of the role of resonant absorption and phase mixing in coronal heating
(University of St Andrews, 2021-06-29) - ThesisBackground: The Sun is a massive and highly dynamic ball of plasma, and oscillations in kinetic and magnetic energy are commonplace throughout its atmosphere. Since the plasma conducts electricity, we model the fluid using ...
