Eruptions and jets in the Sun
(University of St Andrews, 2017-06-23) - ThesisMagnetic flux emergence is a fundamental process in the Sun, during which magnetic fields emerge from the solar interior to the surface, to build up active regions and give onset to spectacular dynamic phenomena, such as ... -
On plausible counterexamples to Lehnert's conjecture
(University of St Andrews, 2018) - ThesisA group whose co-word problem is a context free language is called co𝐶𝐹 . Lehnert's conjecture states that a group 𝐺 is co𝐶𝐹 if and only if 𝐺 embeds as a finitely generated subgroup of R. Thompson's group V . In this ... -
Incorporating animal movement into circular plot and point transect surveys of wildlife abundance
(University of St Andrews, 2018) - ThesisEstimating wildlife abundance is fundamental for its effective management and conservation. A range of methods exist: total counts, plot sampling, distance sampling and capture-recapture based approaches. Methods have ... -
A continuous-time formulation for spatial capture-recapture models
(University of St Andrews, 2017) - ThesisSpatial capture-recapture (SCR) models are relatively new but have become the standard approach used to estimate animal density from capture-recapture data. It has in the past been impractical to obtain sufficient data ... -
Equilibrium states, pressure and escape for multimodal maps with holes
(2017-09) - Journal articleFor a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic interval maps, we study rates of escape with respect to conformal measures associated with a family of geometric potentials. We establish the existence of physically relevant ...
