1. Metamathematical fixed points
Abstract : This thesis concerns the concept of metamathematical fixed points. After an introduction, we survey the field of metamathematics, from la fin du siècle to present. We are especially interested in the notion of fixed points, theorems on the existence of various kinds of fixed points, and their applications to metamathematics. READ MORE

2. Points on Production : Taphonomic research on Mesolithic osseous assemblages in Sweden
Abstract : Osteoarchaeological materials are influenced by many consecutive factors, from human hunting strategies, consumption patterns and waste disposal to mechanical and chemical changes in bone structure and shape. Here Mesolithic osteoarchaeological patterns have been examined in relation to the production of bone and antler artefacts. READ MORE

3. Benchmarking Points-to Analysis
Abstract : Points-to analysis is a static program analysis that, simply put, computes which objects created at certain points of a given program might show up at which other points of the same program. In particular, it computes possible targets of a call and possible objects referenced by a field. READ MORE

4. Counting rational points on genus one curves
Abstract : This thesis contains two papers dealing with counting problems for curves of genus one. We obtain uniform upper bounds for the number of rational points of bounded height on such curves. The main tools to study these problems are descent and various refined versions of Heath-Brown’s p-adic determinant method. READ MORE

5. Ramification numbers and periodic points in arithmetic dynamical systems
Abstract : The field of discrete dynamical systems is a rich and active field of research within mathematics, with applications ranging from biology to computer science, finance, engineering and various others. In this thesis properties of certain discrete dynamical systems are studied together with number theoretic properties of the functions defining these systems. READ MORE
