1. Diffusion Dynamics and the Pricing of Innovations
Abstract : This doctoral thesis deals with two closely interconnected phenomena, the adoption and diffusion of innovations. The research aims at developing both the theory of individual adoption decisions and the theory of the diffusion of an innovation in society. READ MORE

2. Theory of Hydrogen Quantum Diffusion
Abstract : Atomic hydrogen adsorbed on a metal surface is one of the simplest possible examples of chemisorption, yet it is very challenging. The adsorption and the very elementary process of surface diffusion, a single atomic jump, have been investigated theoretically using several methods. READ MORE

3. Stochastic Simulation of Multiscale Reaction-Diffusion Models via First Exit Times
Abstract : Mathematical models are important tools in systems biology, since the regulatory networks in biological cells are too complicated to understand by biological experiments alone. Analytical solutions can be derived only for the simplest models and numerical simulations are necessary in most cases to evaluate the models and their properties and to compare them with measured data.

4. Diffusion-Induced Nonlinear Dynamics in Carbon Nanomechanical Resonators
Abstract : The emergence of nanoelectromechanical systems has enabled the development of sensors capable of detecting mass, charge, force, position, and spin with an unprecedented precision. In particular, the low mass, high resonant frequency, and high quality factor of carbon nanomechanical resonators make them ideal for the creation of a high sensitivity mass sensor. READ MORE

5. Heterogeneous Materials - Diffusion, Laplace spectrum and NMR
Abstract : Relations to the effective diffusion constant and the relaxation rate of the time-dependent diffusion coefficient for porous systems are derived from the Laplace operator spectrum. The Padé approximation is then explained in terms of the Laplace operator spectrum. READ MORE
